No!!! of course I'm not eating a block of sea salt dark chocolate at 1am in the morning lol

I have a mild intolerance for gluten, and when I do ever eat a sandwich or pizza, I know I'll feel horrible the next day and end up eating so much more! It's horrible. I would just try to avoid it all together since you know it'll make you feel bad next time. Try things like cauliflower pizzas, flax crackers etc and drink…

^^ But this protein powder actually tastes really good! Especially with yogurt. You can bake cheesecakes and muffins etc as well to make things with added protein and fiber :)
-
Oh, definitely agree with you! It also has extra fiber, vitamins, etc most other supps do not. The taste alone makes it worth it (I mix it with greek yogurt and freeze it a little) I'm literally counting down to 2:30 (like 1 more hr) so I can go eat my bowl sitting in the fridge and then drive to the gym, leg and glutes…

^ Nice! I tried the sun warrior brand too initially (in chocolate) but got a weird aftertaste. It's hard to describe but it tasted little ground up bean flour. I don't know why the vega ones I tried didn't have it, but nonetheless thanks for sharing guys! Do you also mix it in greek yogurt or drink it straight up with…
-
Yes!!! Finally :) what flavor do you prefer? I'm the same way, I used to use a lot of the common whey brands and felt like they seriously irritated my system...esp the sucralose! Also, the plant ones like vega and the brand you mentioned usually have natural sweeteners as well as added fiber!
-
Yup thank you! There was also an episode of Dr.Oz (I know I know, but this one was actually good) where he did a study and I think 8/10 protein powders (common brands like optimum nutrition, etc) had 30% less protein than they claimed. There were a couple of brands that had lead in them too (shakeology for sure).
-
Awesome! Glad I'm not the only one! :D So you have tried them? Is it just me or is the vanilla flavor better than non-vegan brands?

Heyy I was serious haha

forgot the website, here are the supps http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/vega/vega.htm

whoops, forgot the link http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/vega/vega.htm

Thanks! I haven't heard of that brand! You're right, I just meant without all the crazy additives and fake proteins. It just seems more reliable, than having to check what percent of a non-vegan(soy-free) protein is soy concentrate, whey concentrate, vs. isolate vs. the glycerin. It's crazy

I wouldn't make it without coffee, and caffeine in general :)

Wow, some hilarious answers I was not expecting haha. I wore a different sports bra today and no nip slip!!! Yay. But I realized my tights were a little see through. I hate gym wardrobe malfunctions, terrified of my tights ripping (hopefully that hasn't happened to any of you!) Also, I used to wear a bra (like some of you…

OMG can't stop lol'ing haha. It's so annoying though. There's also a guy and his wife/gf idk, who use the biceps/lat pull down for AT LEAST half an hour, I'm not exaggerating. They'll do like 10 sets of who know what, and then the guy (super tall african american guy) will sit behind the girl while she's doing the set. I'm…
-
Exactly! Last week, a guy came up to me IN THE MIDDLE OF ME LEG PRESSING to ask me what the date was so he could write it in his notebook. And then just turned around and walked away. Also, I hate it when I arrive at the gym in the morning, and there are like 6 loaded 45 lb plates on everything from whoever was there late…

OMG Blue cheese + buffalo chicken + hard-boiled eggs + celery salad = amazing! Of course its okay haha

Jay Robb Pina Colada protein, cashew coconut bar, 1.5 cups greek yogurt, cinnamon swirl whey, muesli, sunflower seed butter, pb2 Whoohoo 800 calorie breakfast! edit: wow adding pictures is hard lol
-
Aww, still need to watch that movie haha! For me its usually super ghetto songs or catchy songs on the radio from singers I don't like (like Miley Cyrus and Demi Lovato etc) Which is why I freak out when someone tries to lurk my phone haha.
-
WOW, that's awesome! Keep it up :) Does baking things make anyone else NOT want to eat them anymore? Sometimes I'll crave a slice of cake and bake a fancy pancy one but not even want to eat it anymore = free food for friends/family haha. So, its usually two extremes for me, either baking ridiculous amounts of cupcakes and…
-
Ok thank you for all the replies! Mine also does have some padding, but I guess I'll just have to wear looser tees. I probably notice it more than anyone else. :)
-
Haha, I did the same thing when I first started but went crazy with the wrong kinds of protein. I think 1kg, has 23 servings in it. I usually use max of 1.5 scoops per day. I haven't tried the other sunwarrior flavors, I am too scared too! Maybe if its on sale I might pick up the vanilla but I just love the vega so much!…
-
Can't stop lol'ing

I've tried a lot of vegan proteins and non vegan ones, I didn't like the sunwarrior or vega chocolate flavors, but the vega vanilla is one of my favorites. The garden of life chai spice, and chocolate are good too. I can't remember if spirutein is vegan, but they have some really amazing flavors like cookies n cream,…

I'm not sure how long you would be able to keep up the fasted strength training. The bodybuilders I know that do this only do it for cardio, and take some bcaas before. When I did if, my window started at 12, usually ate greek yogurt with some nut butters and granola, protein powder before bed, my broats when I woke up at…

The strawberries are usually fake tasting and chocolate ones are rarely chocolatey enough so I would say cnc. I had two tubs of cnc last year and got through it pretty quick, so good!
