I can't help with the afib, but Optimum Nutrition has a all natural whey protein as do other companys that are popular in the weight lifting world.

I have never had a problem with concentrate or isolate but prefer blends due to cost.

This sounds awesome!, going to have to give it a try.

I would like to think mine is exercising as well, on off days I find myself thinking about how much I am going to deadlift, bench, etc, tomorrow., That and browsing supplements on sale somewhat like you, i have 4 5lbs tubs of protein at the moment lol.

Thanks everyone!, Nothing works unless you do!

Just found my book, on my plan 36 days is "stage 6" meaning that I can have pretty much all food, but you also need to know your Macros such as protein, fats, and carbs. If you want some ideas you can looks at some members food diary's and see how they eat, feel free to add me if you want and view mine. 1200-1300 calories…

Can't recall the stage 4 months post op is, but it all depends I like to keep 3 main meals and 1-2 snacks depending on calories, say shoot for 200 cals each meal or split it in to more meals if you need to. As far as recipes always remember protein first.

I guess I am lucky, I just take a multi, d3, and E as for brand CVS Kroger or walmart always has some brand BOGO.

Thank you, feels good to be part of the club! Next week is the Under 300 club, 302 after lifting today.

I have been making a bar for quite sometime, it is more like a no-bake cookie little less calories but less protein as well. 1 cup natural peanut butter 3 tablespoons honey (or agave) 1 and 1/2 cup whey protein (chocolate and vanilla work well) 1 cup oats 5 tablespoons water 1 tablespoon cocoa powder 1 teaspoon vanilla I…

Thank you, your routine looks pretty intense :o. Me and my friend just started this routine as well, it is called Daily Undulating Periodization (DUP), that is the reason for squat, bench, and dead lifts every day we go. The basic idea is hit each muscle group every 36 hours to keep a higher level of protein synthesis, but…

Thank you, and I would be nowhere without my good friends. Currently at 324lbs would like to get to around 270 or lower. I wish I would have taken more pictures along the way, but I do have this little collage my cousin made. I think the right I am still around 350lbs.

Are you getting your water in?, my Doc always stressed the impotence of it and how feeling hungry after surgery was sometimes due to lack of hydration.

I have never really cared for any fruit flavored proteins, or cheaper protein powder in fact. If it is any of the Walmart stuff it does not taste well at all, It is different for everyone but some good ones I have had include Optimum Nutrition, MTS, Syntrax Nectar, and Matrix, GNC amp 100%, and Cellucor.
