white flour, poor quality fat, sodium, and a massive wallop of MSG. practically no protein.
my partner was busy last night, so I fed the family. I cooked whole-wheat cous-cous, mixed it with fried peppers and onions, and steamed a package of frozen "Italian Vegetables" (cauliflower, broccoli, carrots and more.) I put this into bowls, half of each of the kind of stuff, and flavored with a dash of salt, pepper and earth balance natural margarine.
i didn't want a lot of protein in that meal because we cooked a chicken last night and i've been eating mass quantities of whey protein powder.
- csytan 16y agoWhy choose protein powder instead of natural protein?
- daniel-cussen 16y agoProbably because he wants more than the natural amount of muscle.
- terra_t 16y agoI think of myself as Rocky Bilboa making a comeback. I've got to go up against you punks and win, so I train hard and watch my diet. And who's to say what's natural? The withering muscles of a pencil-necked geek who sits in front of a computer all day and into the night? Or the massive frame of my brother-in-law who works on a road crew?
- daniel-cussen 16y agoThat's great. Just for context, I'm taking the same stuff: whey protein (with dextrose and creatine), vanilla flavor.
- ShardPhoenix 16y agoIt's easier to eat in large quantities. (For some people. Personally I can't stand it.)
- yesimahuman 16y agoTry a different brand/type. I personally love the stuff and how I feel when I'm incorporating it into my diet in place of some of my poorer choices.
- Devilboy 16y agoI had to try several ones before I found one I could drink on a regular basis and not get vomity.
- Devilboy 16y agoIt's super convenient to have a whey shake once a day or more - especially if you're trying to have 5 or 6 small meals a day instead of 2-3 big ones.
