You've really got me curious now! Am going to have to look for that gatorade powder. I assume you just mix it with water?

Well, according to Nelms, the benefits of the insulin spike in the PWO shake are great. So I got convinced by him.

I actually mix the Gatorade lemon-lime powder right in with Vanilla whey and use about 20oz of water since it's pretty sweet. I find it really refreshing now to drink this concoction after a hard workout. I was able to find the Gatorade powder pretty easily in a regular neighborhood grocery store so it shouldn't be too hard to hunt down.

Well, it looks like your weight is coming down for whatever reason. I KNOW it's not muscle loss as you do AWESOME on keeping your protein up...so somethin' workin' for ya'! Maybe you shouldn't change it just yet!

Nelms, I've really developed a taste for this

VERY glad to hear! Keep drinking!

Nah, SG....my weight isn't really coming down. I just gain and lose the same 2-3lbs of water every few days if you notice. It will be interesting to get my measurements next week because I think that's what will paint the real picture.

Well, in any case, somethin's gotta' give! Some people have to go below the 10x the body weight to cut. A couple of the girls got on me for doing that, but that's just how I have to do it. Maybe that's the case for you too???? What you're doing now isn't getting you where you want to be, so hopefully you find the magic equation soon.

I know you have an issue with brown fat. Let me tell you...I've had sticky fat ever since I can remember. It's genetic with me and as young as you are, it's gotta' be with you too. It doesn't come off unless your EXTREMELY lean. Even at 11.5%, I still had it. Don't want to put a damper on things for you, but it's just reality.

Yup, yup, I'm aware of that harsh reality. Like you, the trainer who does my bodyfat did already warn me that I may have to go down as low as 10-11% before I lose a good portion of my sticky fat. It's definitely genetic with me. I have very non-taut skin so every and any dimple or uneven deposit of fat really shows.

Due to the fact that there's nothing that can be done about it, I'm seriously considering going under the knife to help reduce it. I've already had a consultation (about 5 years ago), and I'm still thinking about it! Drives me nuts!
