    Dog Food

    For those of you who have dogs, what kind of food do you feed them? It's been about 4 years since we lost our labrador retriever and we are finally getting another puppy in a couple weeks. Seems I've heard a lot about dangerous dog food in recent years. We fed our Labs Purina Pro Plan but I...

    I give up on protein shakes!

    Thanks :) I'll check it out. I just got my new can today and realized I ordered unsweetened by mistake (I usually get vanilla) but I gave it a try anyway. Thankfully with a banana and some frozen strawberries thrown in, I really couldn't tell much difference from the vanilla. So yay, no...

    I give up on protein shakes!

    Candice...have you tried a vegan PP? I really like Hemp. Sun Warrior will send you free samples...at least they used to, probably still do. Marti Jean...would you mind sharing your brand? Mine is 20g of protein in 2 scoops and I just can't do that much w/ how sweet it is :(

    I give up on protein shakes!

    I'm on the verge of giving up protein shakes too. I ran out of my protein powder a few weeks ago and have been doing fine (almost fine) without it. I still have trouble getting the protein I need daily w/out it so I went ahead and ordered my usual PP again last night. I really like the taste...

    ESalon

    Thanks for your response Melissa. Glad to hear you've been happy with them. I have colored my hair (drugstore kits, which have been epic fails) so don't have a problem there. I'm anxious to try it out!

    Starting STS next week - looking for advice

    I also mainly did Hiit, although I limited my cardio b/c I wanted to focus on building muscle. I just started a round of Body Beast and I probably won't do over 1 cardio day a week.

    ESalon

    https://www.esalon.com/ It is a site where professional colorists will customize a color for you and ship it. It's around $30 so much more economical than paying a stylist in a salon. It is suppose to deliver the same results you would get in a salon. I think I'm going to try it. I'd...

    ESalon

    Does anyone use this? I'm thinking of trying them. When I went to my salon for cut & color it cost $170 with tip :confused: and I can't pay that every other month! eSalon sounds pretty good but I'm hoping to find out a little more about them. Thanks! Tracy

    Hi Aly, I'm also a skinny girl that has been working for years to build muscle. While I've had success, my genetics just make it so that I don't know if I'll ever reach my goals :( But I'm going to keep trying! The girls here have given you some great advice, definitely apply it to what you...

    XTrain packaging

    My case is okay...so far :confused: My brother in law gave the Star Wars series DVDs to my son and he bought the generic cases somewhere (maybe a place like Office Depot) then he made copies of the pictures from the original DVD cases, cut them out and slipped them in the cover of the case. You...

    Collage Video Will Return?

    This would be my guess as well. Crazy things happen in the business world all the time. A buyer may have come along right after Collage Vid decided to call it quits and bought them out. Hopefully they will give their customers an explanation. Anyway, glad they are back :)

    Hypertrophy - Body Beast versus X-train and/or Meso 2

    Seems there has been A LOT of talk of Body Beast lately. I did the Lean phase last year so I'm starting up the Bulk phase next week. I started my 4th round of STS in the Fall and fizzled out. This is the first time this has happened to me with STS :( I'm not sure why I couldn't keep up with...

    Artificial Sweetner of any kind....

    Yes! Maple syrup is delish! I also put local, raw honey in my tea & plain greek yogurt. I eat it to help with my allergies mainly but it sure makes the yogurt go down easier :D

    Artificial Sweetner of any kind....

    I don't touch anything with artificial sweeteners. I don't like the aftertaste and I don't like that they are chemicals. I recently heard about Quest bars and wanted to try them but when I found out they have artificial sweeteners, I decided against them. I also limit refined sugar as much as...

    clean eating versus body building diet

    For me, it's a balance between the two. I avoid processed foods, sugar, artificial sweeteners, etc. But since my main fitness goal is to build muscle, I have to work on getting my protein in. I try to watch my carbs, especially as the day goes on, but I aim to get my carbs from whole grains &...
