To any of you who may jump in to help/comment...I have a SERIOUS cheese addiction. That will be my undoing if not watched.

That's kinda what I thought. I had heard w8, or someone recommend using a tablespoon of heavy or whipping cream with water when mixing protein drinks..as a way of avoiding the sugar and carbs, but didn't think it would be that great as the primary liquid in the shake. Hey, if it works...it works.

I have been lifting for about 3 years now. I have made enormous progress. I just seem to have the genetics to lift heavy. I do work hard, but I see alot of people working harder with less results, so I assume I was born with it.
As for dieting, about 2 weeks now. Keeping my cals in the 2000-2500 range. This is low, but I feel my metabolism is very good. I will up it if I start to slow down. One day, I will get the guts to post my shirtless photo. If you look hard you can see good muscle mass but it is essentially hidden under fat. Yuck! That photo has done more to motivate me than anything else. Hard to run from a close-up photo of your fat arse. You and I are the same age, where'd you grow up? School? |

I reside right here in the great metropolis of Sumter. I didn't escape like the others.
I just noticed that your weights didn't sound like a beginner. I've been lifting off and on for a long time. I got out altogether for about a year or so, and now I'm basically starting over. As for pics...I have my pride. I'm not THAT bad off...well, yeah I am. Damn cigarettes, wish I'd never started. ![]() |

Hey, at least you're keeping track, right? And you know the difference between good foods and borderline bad foods....some folks here have not a clue.

Hey, if it were easy everybody'd be doing it. Besides, with the exception of sodium nitrite, et al, what's a little turkey sausage going to do to you?

Looks like you've got lots of muscle in that frame. Good luck! Keeping your calories in that range, you'll see results quickly.
BTW, you guys seriously need to do someting about your defense. ![]() |

Can I ask a question?
Why the heavy cream in th post w/o shake? And why so many carbs pre w/o? Also how many hours before working out are you eating that meal? *okay three questions. sorry* |

Today, I went higher on the carbs b/c of the workout. I was dragging and I figured that 1) I would just burn them off and 2) would stay lower in carbs the rest of the day.
This meal is abour 1 hour before workout. Heavy cream is to have a fat source with protien. Do you think that necessary? Thanks for the help. |
