Protein Ideas
What is your go to source of protein? I have been eating chicken, eggs and cheese for a few. At the start, I relied heavily on protein shakes. Premier Protein has a ready to drink shake that has 30g of protein and only 160 calories I believe. I also found a Special K cereal that combined with milk has 11g.

Eating Healthier, But.....
Over the last 4 weeks I have been eating a lot more fruits and veggies than I normally had been. I've also been experiencing more gas. Is this fairly normal when starting healthier eating? Will my body eventually adjust and stop. Sometimes the gas pain is painful. I've tried gas-ex and it hasn't really helped. I read that…
