    Squating advice needed - Help!

    All about form. Just hold onto the kitchen counter and do body weight squats. Focus on form even if you are totally using your arms. It trumps "wasted" weights any day. You'll feel it and feel it fast. I've done the machines at gym for past three weeks with no burn. Did three sets at home last week, body weight only holding onto chair and my quads were on fire last week.

    is l-carnitine good for you

    Saw that. Here is another article that is a great counterpoint to that article. http://www.medpagetoday.com/Cardiology/MyocardialInfarction/38422

    is l-carnitine good for you

    I've been taking it daily for about 2 weeks and feel a difference in my energy levels. There is an article that just came out poo-poo'ing it. Unread another from Mayo that said it was ok.
  4. Went to Costco today. Couldn't find them. Frisco Texas Costco. :-(

    Homemade jerky!

    Trying to avoid as much of the salt as possible. Mostly garlic and onion powder. Seems if you don't salt the heck out of it in some way (soy sauce etc) it doesn't taste good.

    Homemade jerky!

    I hope this gains some views. I bought a dehydrator for the exact same reason and so far my "healthy" jerky tastes like crap.

    Protein bars

    I live off of Quest bars. I think they are some of the best out there. Mixed Berry is my favorite.

    Liquids 4 weeks

    Times vary. By week four I was on lumpy stuff but I wish I'd have stayed on clear liquids. I'm 3 months post op now. Check out Isopure Protein drinks. They are clear liquids with every flavor you can imagine and 40 grams of Whey Protein. I use them to this day. They are like kool-aide with no crap in them.

    Nike Fuel Band?

    I got one a few weeks ago. I find the counts are fairly off but I like to see the fuel in terms of knowing I need to go do more activity. I wish it would work on things like the stationary bike. I put it in on my shoe string but it still didn't work. I'd say anything that gets you motivated to move your butt is a good thing.

    How much Protein

    Here is a great article on the nuts and bolts of Protein. http://www.menshealth.com/mhlists/guide-to-protein/?cm_mmc=YTPG-_-4%20Muscle%20Myths%20Debunked-_-Entry-_-The_Truth_about_Protein
  17. Men's clothing. Assorted. Jeans, shorts, Polo golf shirts,etc. 44-46 waist 2xl and 3xl on shirts. A lot of it is in excellent if not near new. Some worn but in good condition. More than happy to give away.
  18. Why not other forms of calcium?

    protein problem : (

    I'm 3 mos out and have similar problems. I think mine is in my head though. I'll eat a piece of prime rib no problem, then get nausea eating a plain piece of chicken.

    carbs

    Are you all saying 50ish grams of carbs per DAY or per SERVING?

    Protein bars

    I've settled on Quest Bars. More than tasty enough with a ton of protein and fiber. Heat them up a bit for a really tummy treat. Buy on Amazon for best price.
  22. Following orders but curious as to why? Never had an acid problem prior to surgery.
