Help with protein intake

I get such good advise on here that helps to keep me motivated. I can develop muscle pretty fast so that helps. I lost one inch off of my waist in 2 weeks, however, I have not been as faithful as I should to the program (but I am working on it). I think the best results so far to me is my outlook, attitude and the eating. But, I feel that is the first step. I have maintained my weight, but am losing the inches. I think I became a member the first part of June?????? How about you are you hanging in there?

It is made by vitamin world. www.vitaminworld.com. -snow

Weider products are also on the cheaper side, but don't taste too good. If you wanna go the food route eat lots of egg whites and tuna fish, they are loaded with protein and very little fat/carbs. Best of luck
