Protein. Minus the soy
So I am looking for a good protein powder for my breakfast shakes. The few that I have heard good things about have soy in them. I've recently been hearing a lot of negative things about a soy heavy diet. Does anyone know of a low carb protein powder that does NOT have soy in it?

protein/fruit/veg shake
So I struggle at lunch to get my protein in and I'm always too high in carbs. So I'm thinking about starting to make shakes for lunch now. I drink light vanilla soy milk. so I figured I could mix that, with some fruits (any veg suggestions), some sort of protein powder/shake stuff ? Any recommendations or receipes?

What are your measurements??
Okay. I have never done measurements of my body. But whenever I discuss my height weight etc people are stunned at how "heavy" I am. I guess I carry the weight well? This of course makes me feel like they are just being kind though. I'm finally going to do measurements tomorrow morning to get to the facts! So what are your…

twenty-somethings/overtime workers
I need to be more active on here. I am thinking that I would be more encouraged if I had more friends in similar categories that I am in. I'm 24, have a job that I never work only 40 hours at. I'm not in the overweight range (per the charts) but want to lose weight still. anyone in those categories who need support from…

High Protein intake
So I'm inputting everything I eat and almost every day I go over my protein goal. usually 15-30g over. Is this going to inhibit my ability to lose weight? I eat a breakfast bar that has 6-8g in it, then usually a sandwich for lunch and dinner always has meat in it. I never thought I would be eating too many g of protein.

OxyElite Pro
Any users? What are you experiences? thoughts? I just started using it yesterday. I am a full time student and work nearly full time. So I was in need of an energy booster since I've recently started working out, and an appetite suppressant since my stomach needs shrinking, (too much overeating)! lol So far no complaints!…
