i've done this with chocolate protein powder right before my cardio first thing in teh morning, its not bad at all either.

i've taken no-xplode for about a month and love teh stuff. i'm a natural also, i've never tried any gear. i just started the hydroxycut hardcore friday, so i cant really review on it yet. i've had great results as compared to anything i've tried thus far though.

Just put your foot down about what you are doing and why, she should understand that there is a real basis behind what you are doing. even if she is already fit, its a very healthy lifestyle that people should incorporate into their lives regardless of if they are into fitness or not. You...

just use a calorie tracking website, monitor your % of caloric intake regarding your protein/carbs/fat, eat clean sources for all.
