Ok, I'm not giving all the credit to the casein powder, but I received it saturday night and have since replaced my usual late night snack (strawberries and 1/2 c. of either ff cottage cheese or ff yogurt with 1 tbls. flax seeds) with a shake. I've been stuck at 135.4 since october 5th and I woke up this morning for my weigh in and am at 134! WHAT! I'm sure it's a combo of the cut in calories and no carbs RIGHT before bed, but, hey, i'll take it! I got the Gold Standard chocolate on amazon for $20 for a 2lb. tub of it. It's tasty and sweet with only 2 net carbs and 120 cal in a scoop.

    NI-CE! I might not understand the chemistry, but it sounds like you had good results! On a totally unrelated note, did you know they used to make buttons out of casein? Funny, right? (Like I'm hungry, I have my emergency snack right here sewn on my shirt!) :laugh:
