Rosehip Feb 2021 12:16pm, 27 Feb 2021 19,847 posts	0 Rosehip Fab newts Woo My newt is that, inspired by B-Lass on this thread or maybe elsewhere, I bought some clear whey protein isolate samples, as I can't stand the "milkshake" style ones. myprotein.com the bitter lemon one is quite nice - I'm not going all "body builder" and having tons of the stuff, but looking at the macros in my MFP diaries, I thought the odd drink wouldn't do any harm.
Sharkie Feb 2021 12:23pm, 27 Feb 2021 17,475 posts	0 Sharkie How you getting on with the creatine, Rosehip? I'm onto one 5g a day now- a lot easier than remembering four times a day. I 'might' be experiencing a temporary water retention thing (about a pound, poss two) but am holding nerve. Not conclusively proven as even a temporary effect anyway. I think eight weeks before any real effect might be noticed. Am doing quite a lot of training - but then I always do (not-a-newt)
GimmeMedals Feb 2021 1:01pm, 27 Feb 2021 20,023 posts	0 GimmeMedals Thanks for the link, RH. The discount code off-sets the delivery costs so I’ve ordered a few flavours to try. My Flanchi skort and shorts have arrived. The parcel also contain a mini bag of Haribo (nice) and a pair of leggings which are priced on the website at £37.99, more expensive than either of the items I purchased 😲 I can’t decide if they are a freebie or an oversight.

The sixth running of Do a New Thing for Spring

Lent has a special and specific meaning to Christians but has become an secular season of denial and hair shirting that serves no positve purpose. No chocolate, no booze, no -er - other stuff.

Why not treat the build up to Easter - as a chance to celebrate and embrace NEW THINGS - that's what spring is about after all.

The first few pages of the thread give more ideas.
