This site is great! I look forward to swaping supplement stories and talking about workout tips with everyone.


About a year ago I was at 260lbs, my doctor told me if I did not lose it I will get diabetes by constantly giving my pancreas a hard time with insulin production. And after many sleepless nights searching the net and getting information, I was able to create a diet that demanded a lot of phisical and mental discipline. I now weigh 150lbs and am working on a lean muscular phisique.

It saved my life...and gave me sex appeal

Hello everyone! I just joined and I want to introduce myself. My name is Megan and I came across this site while searching for information on weight loss products. This has by far been the most helpful site I've ever found and I plan on logging on to it often to help me reach my weight loss goals.

Been looking this place over for about a week now and decided that you all here seem cool so here I am. I,ve been lifting weights for about 31 years and at the age of 52 now I see no stopping until the day I die. I'm slowing down a bit but its a habit that you cant break after so many years. Its addicting. LOL
Nice site you all got.

[Jim]

wow, a veteran!! my 10yrs pales in comparison to your 31.

and welcome!!

[Dave]

welcome marco

31 years is very impressive!

Nice to see you here Ruckus!!!

[mcfly]

hey what's up everyone, names Alex
just started Whey protein and i was wondering if anyone could recommend a good flavoured one since im having trouble finding one that i can drink without having to fear the taste lol

[mcfly]

hey again
i'm a little confused as to how much protein i should be taking a day. It says on the label that i should be taking 1g per lb of weight, so that should be 175g's, but i was wondering if that means i should be taking 175g's of my whey only or if that includes eating other foods like tuna and eggs to come up to that 175?

[Jim]

welcome to the forum alex.

you should aim for 1-1.5g protein/lb of body weight. that's total daily protein, which includes protein from foods, and whey together.

try something like optimum's 100whey, chocolate or vanilla both taste very good.
