Holy hell ..... did I!

I was holding so much water and bloated... BAH! If I have it It will be once a week... I have an issue getting in Calcium.. I don't drink Milk so this was helping me.

I bought calcium pills ... I'm guessing that will work.

I hear ya, I was having the same problem with it, I rarely get bloated, never came across a food that did that to me until now.... cottage cheese takes the prize lol.

And I was kinda happy it did, cause now I have a good reason not to eat, instead of the fact that I just don't like the taste.

I drink lactaid skim milk, calcium pills should do the trick.

Spinach is an EXCELLENT source of calcium! WHOA!

that having been said, cal supps while training and/or cutting hard are a must.

What kind are you taking?

As much as the dairy lobby is pushing milk as a source of calcium, there are SOOOO many other better sources ---

Thank you Sassy!

From the looks of that.. It seems I'm pulling in calcium from other sources.. Only other thing I'm taking is a Multi Vitamin.

 

[Sassy69]

Here's one of the amazing secrets of my trainer's regimen. My supps consist of prenatal vitamins. They are just beefed up multis. He's got all his male and female clients on them. From my standpoint, I was takign a boatload of supps but after switching to just the prenatals 3 weeks ago, my hair & nails are so much healthier.

Interesting...

The only time I took prenatal was when.. well I was prego..LOL. Looking back I can't recall how they affected me. The ones I was taking was something my do prescribed.

Do you just get over the counter or did you have your doc prescribe the to you.
