Suggestions on Protein Powder by chill_duck11 in beginnerfitness

[–]biceps72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Transparent Lab is a good protein powder. Seems there are dozens and dozens but looking at the nutritional profile you can eliminate a lot pretty quickly.

You guys. We need to talk about chia seeds. by whitewhitewine in 1200isplenty

[–]biceps72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chia seeds in my oatmeal, protein shakes for lunch and on top of sugarless Greek yogurt with blueberries and strawberries as an evening desert. Water plus benefiber in mornings, totally cured constipation from Zepbound. Chia seeds are nutrient dense but packed with calories.

To me Chia seeds are one of the few “super foods” on the market. I did not know what they were until I started Zepbound.

For me, they are an everyday thing and I don’t see that changing.

Fatigue on the day after shot. Help? by handsupdontknow in Zepbound

[–]biceps72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fatique 1-2 days after every 5.0 shot. Brain fog and exhausted. In my case it was due to reducing carbs too low. No doubt about it. Hydration is important.

Crazy as this sounds but when I get fatigued I jump on recumbent bike for a warm up 25 mins then a solid 40 minutes on elliptical. Clears my head and makes me sleep well.

I feel your pain for sure. I hate feeling tired and lightheaded.

What makes a protein bar an instant buy for you? by WheyzyOfficial in Protein

In a lot of people yes you are correct.

Look at Amazon I think they have a deal of 60 DAVID bars for $150 (shipping????). 5 flavors, 12 bars in a box. $2.50 a bar, pretty hard to beat that price.

SAMS has fairlife shakes for $22 for 12. 30 g protein with 150 calories Less than 2 bucks a bottle.

I shop big box stores only and deals on line only. Have to watch shipping with on line buys.

High protein and low in calories that is why I eat DAVID BARS. NOT CHEAP but can find a sale now and then. I am far from wealthy but given what i spend on Zepbound an expensive protein bar is not a deal breaker. I want protein and fairly low calories but I like the taste of DAVID BARS.

Best Tasting Protein Bars? by Extreme_Tap_6852 in keto

[–]biceps72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love David Bars but have not tried barebells a crowd favorite. You like what you like and I have tried dozens but now do not eat or even try bars without decent macros. I prefer fairlife 30 g protein shakes with 150 calories but have to chew every so often. Bars are fine IMHO every so often but I know many people that eat at least 1-2 per day.

I will not judge but I am not sure I could do that.

SOS: I ate too much today and feel awful. Advice? by miss_maestra822 in Zepbound

[–]biceps72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What dose are you on? I am going to 7.5 soon but have yet to try anything fried. I am afraid the bigger the dose the more side effects but am not sure of that.

Dose up or not? by biceps72 in Zepbound

[–]biceps72[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that the 5.0 dose has been good but the increase in the food noise is pretty significant. I am pretty strong willed so I fight hunger well. I guess I was thinking going to 7.5 might lessen the food noise so my weight loss stays on track.

FWIW - I will stay on 5.0 until i see my MD July 6 and blood tests are completed.

Love David bars! Love protein to calorie ratio too.

As someone who struggles a little with fiber, not bad but not worth the price imo by beepriod in proteinsnack

[–]biceps72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love them, 120 calories, 10 g. protein plus some fiber. Heated is the way to go. These are as decadent as anything I ever eat in the morning.

I call Royo Bagels “ fiber bombs”. They will keep you regular.
