That's always good. -------------- --JBennett "I've up-ed my intensity.... now up yours!" "Pain is only weakness leaving the body."

Very tasty. -------------- Baseball is the only field of endeavor where a man can succeed three times out of ten and be considered a good performer

I'm not a huge fan of EAS products, but the vanilla-flavored whey protein is good and mixes easily. And, it's the cheapest around (I've looked everywhere). I also like either strawberry or banana Real Gains by Universal Nutrition, but you don't need that since you're not bulking. Labrada Lean Body meal replacements are good as well... or, at least they used to be; I haven't tried them in a couple years. -------------- --JBennett "I've up-ed my intensity.... now up yours!"

If this continues, you may want to take a look at your intensity. Could be blood pressure issues, blood sugar, or any number of reasons. Something to keep an eye on. -------------- Baseball is the only field of endeavor where a man can succeed three times out of ten and be considered a good performer
