    I wasn't supplementing protein, but when I was a teen I was such a jock chick. I ate super healthy and was in amazing shape. It was college that brought on all of the deviant behavior...

    Aside from the body image pressures, I guess it must be getting 'cool' to look ripped and muscular.

    Not all that surprised, practically all my guy friends (that are teens) are trying to bulk up and almost all the girls in my school have attempted dieting.

    Not sure this is any healthier than the significant amount of pot I smoked in high school
