    I eat special k protein snack bars. They only have 4 grams though so it's not a super great choice I suppose but I like them. I'm probably going to start pairing it with some cheese or nuts though.

    boiled eggs, tuna and boneless skinless chicken breasts...one thing to remember about protein is it will boost your testosteron and can break out your skin and since you are in need on 8 servings of water a day it can also make you retain this water, I make sure to work in some type of exercise each day! Nuts are good they also have oils protein shakes can make you retain fluids

    Cholesterol is the building block for testosterone, not protein. Also, sodium and carbohydrates make you retain water, not protein.


    Thank you!! I hate when someone thinks protein does stuff like that!!

    I tend to get my protein from wherever and whenever I can. I have a long term goal of some small time bodybuilding so I take It in groves if possible.

    Whey Protein is your best bet. Make a great protein shake with banana skim milk and peanut butter. It doesn't get any better then that,
