Guest guest Posted January 21, 2004 Report Share Posted January 21, 2004 I posted this earlier, but I am still looking for advice on what brand of protein-only powder would be best if I wanted to add it to my oatmeal in the morning. I am getting sick of cottage cheese!!! I love all of the posts and it is really helping my wife and I. We are in our fourth week of our first challenge and are doing everything to the letter. We haven't cheated at all or missed a single workout (this with 2 small children and very demanding jobs!). On our " off days " we are only deviating a little from our regular day meal plans. My wife is getting frustrated, because she is seeing very few results. Hopefully the fat (baby weight for her, beer and pizza weight for me) will start to peel off soon. Thanks for your inspiration!

Guest guest Posted January 21, 2004 Report Share Posted January 21, 2004 Ari, I've only tried EAS Precision Protien, and I love it. Easy mix, and the chocolate is a good taste. I don't know if I'd mix with the oatmeal, but might drink a glass of it with it. As for making progress, don't worry -- you are. It took me nearly six weeks during my first challenge. I'm sure others will confirm this, but it seems like you are getting nowhere forever. Then almost overnight you notice that your pants are falling off, people are commenting, etc. Finally, don't worry about the weight. When I started my first challenge, a few years back, I weighed about 185 and was considering moving to 40 " waist pants. I'm about 210 now, and fit comfortably in 38 " waist pants. And I'm in better physical (cardio) shape than I was back then. It is happening...just be patient.
