MRP for weight loss

thebigfig72 Posts: 20 Joined: 2001/11/20	2002/07/29, 01:31 PM I am looking for a MRP for weight loss. Any suggestions. The guy at GNC suggested OPTI-PRO Meal. Has anyone tried it? ---------------------------- do or do not, there is no try.

Check out some of the supplement web sites to find something that meets your goals (gain/loss/maintain). A lot of us have the same problem with access to food during the day but it's hard to keep you from scarfing down a quick drink or bring it back to your desk. I like Myoplex but not on a constant basis. It's a bit pricey but doesn't digest fast and works for a mid morning meal for me.
