Oh that reminds me... what is the best snack to eat before bed if you're cutting (well permanently :pfft: )? Stupid 4am-ers lead to extreme late night hunger and i never know whats i should be filling up on. Obviously NOT carbs.... i guess some of my lost protein smack would be an obvious choice?

Eggs .... 2 yolks + 6 whites will see you right :nod: They will take a bit longer to break down in the system to so good for sleep - not too heavy also. :)

WOW :shock: thats alot of eggs. How would you suggest cooking them, i.e... something more interesting than an omlette? :nod:

Oh man, now that i have stopped laughing so hard, i thought i would share this with you all. My friend just diagnosed me with Orthorexia Nervosa.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthorexia_nervosa

Orthorexia, or orthorexia nervosa denotes an eating disorder characterized by excessive focus on eating healthy foods. .........Orthorexic subjects typically have specific feelings towards different types of food. Preserved products are described as "dangerous", industrially produced products as "artificial", and biological products as "healthy".

Bratman proposes an initial self-test composed of two direct questions: "Do you care more about the virtue of what you eat than the pleasure you receive from eating it?... Does your diet socially isolate you?"

:shock: Uh oh!! Looks like we're all sufferers :pfft: :pfft: :pfft:

He was trying to make himself feel better about his lil sugar and carb binge. :roll:

Zomg, why has no one asked??? Was he hot and did you invite him in for a 'shake'? :kiss:

:shifty: He was indeed hot...and i was in my (not-so) sexy pj's.... :oops:

Yay! Protein party time!!! You're gonna have so much fun with your multi-flavour pack (except maybe the root beer one!!) - let us know how you rate the flavours (it'll help me make choices next time!).

I will keep you flavor-updated daily :grin: Starting right now...

Sample Number 1: Cookies and Cream.

Result: PASS. So Average. Just tasted like Vanilla gone wrong and less creamy. NEXT!

You just think that's what you ordered... how would you know that you didn't just take delivery of a whole bunch of fake products and Mr Customs dude snaffled the good stuff for himself. Was he ripped n shredded :pfft:

:-s Well Some of my goodies had been opened....and he was in pretty good shape... :shock:

So i got a free pair of body fat calipers with my order, and attempted to do a skinfold test .......oh the amusement! 15% BF???? :pfft: :pfft: :pfft: In my dreams Mr Fail Calipers. :naughty:

Is this the only accurate way to measure BF yourself? :-s Got to be a more reliable way.

Woohhooooo go the protein party...

Oi Birthday boy, find your own (Birthday) party to crash :pfft: I'm sure you can manage to find something better than my protein party! :grin:

LOL - I got the freebie calipers too and gave up when I had trouble with the thigh. Will try again tonight, but I keep thinking I'm going to break them :lol:

Oooo I'll be facinated to see what it tells you! You have to Doooo it! :nod: Haha and yes, they do look pretty easily breakable...

Learn how to use them :wink: Better to get someone else to do it, multi-site etc. Same person doing it each time = consistency.

Hmmm interesting... not sure who i could rope into doing that with no awquardness :pfft: But yes, i did do it with three different sites and i tried it three different times with the same consistant result. Thanks for that site, was very helpful. Its so hard to get a decent skinfold on triceps and thighs though! :-s

P.s Chillicat: Tried another ON 100% Protein shake flavour last night: Caramel Toffee Fudge. Again, average, not that sweet, kinda weak flavour but not bad like the Cookies and Cream (which also had a nasty aftertaste). Wish i hadn't bought 3lb's of it though. :doh:

Hmmm, interesting to know. I was keen on trying their Chocolate Coconut flavour after the talk earlier about the BSN Lean Dessert one tasting like a Bounty bar...but since it only comes in a 5lb tub, and if flavours are a bit iffy, I'm not so sure. Shame they don't have one in your multi pack so you could give me your opinion!

I'm loving the one I bought - All the Whey strawberry. The colour is a bit radioactive, but the best bit is that there is no, erm, gassiness with it like you can get with some protein powders (not me of course, I'm a lady and naturally don't get farty ever :lol: )

I was looking at buying that next time actually. Gotta love strawberry, and its real low carb (if its the one im thinking of) so good to know it gets your thumbs up :D

ON 100% flavour number 3: Double Rich Chocolate

Weak, hardly any actual chocolate taste and the chocolate taste it did have wasn't rich in any way. Double fail more like.

The Eatme chocolate protein powder i had was way nicer in my opinion.

Have you tried strawberry banana flavour yet?

It's soooo good! =P~

Noo i haven't, I will try that today though. :grin: Hopefully 4th time lucky....

hopefully that ping is nothing serous....

:? Me too... Doesn't seem to be though. Kinda sore today but nothing like the leg doms i had last week which lasted like 4 days. :doh:
