It's my favourite protein!
It's like steak yet softer.. best cooked medium rare.
Amazinngggg

Oh man, I want some now. It would bee hard to get in Canada; people in Canada care more about pets than they do about people, and kangaroos look "cute" to them. LOL

Haha, I'm lucky enough to be Indigenous and my family often eat kangaroo, crocodile, emu etc.

What are proats?

[tara19]

What are proats?

I have these most days. The toppings change, sometimes fruit but always dark chocolate chips!

Looks Good!

I'm really curious about the red velvet cake batter. may order some...

[jshpark]

Great job. I like the workouts and the food looks good too. I haven't had proats in a while, lol, but I've been used to having frozen proberries-I just made that up.(protein + big bowl of frozen blueberries + almond milk (cutting) or whole milk (gaining). Frozen strawberries microwaved slightly can work too.

I almost always used to add chocolate chips until I ran out and started breaking up bars of chocolate. Sometimes raisinettes, almonds, walnuts, or anything really. Your proats are fancy with the double spreads and looks like shaved coconut .

I don't have shakes, so not sure how it mixes but it's amazing in oats!
I have had the cake batter, cinnamon swirl and red velvet.

Thanks for checking in!
Pro-berries sounds awesome. Except here in Australia we've just had a massive issue with hep A in frozen berries and I'm too poor to buy fresh.

I actually only added the shredded coconut to look more fancy
Usually I make it at uni and it looks like a big bowl of poop haha.

Notes
-Workout felt good, all lifts were manageable.
-Wasn't expecting to eat as much for dinner, a little bit over but it's fine.
- I got an urge for chocolate and in my experience it's better to have a small square rather then deprive myself and lose control tomorrow or tonight
- Studied my uni work most of the day, pretty sedentary.

Are we talking Quest flavours here? Here's my top list, in order:

1. Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough
2. Double Chocolate Chunk
3. Chocolate Peanut Butter
4. Chocolate Brownie
5. Apple Pie
6. Cinnamon Roll
7. Banana Nut Muffin

Here's something funny; when I buy Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough from bb.com, it tastes better than when I buy it locally. It has different packaging, so I wonder if it's a different recipe for international sales. I know the US is more liberal with food product ingredients, so maybe there's something in them that's restricted here.

Nope, talking about protein powder. Cellucor to be precise

I had a bad experience with a box of cookies and cream quest bars and the supplier refused to refund/do anything.
I prefer whole foods, but will eat them if need be (road trip,camping, etc).

i guess he means binge or what not....

Exactly, like me

[tara19]

Oh, not really.
I've never been a binge eater/cheater.
If i want to eat something I fit it into my calories or go a bit over for the day.
Bodybuilding isn't my life,


*it also helps I don't often drink alcohol that's where 95% of my weight gained stemmed from. That and being a manager at kfc *
