Question:
DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT THE PROTIEN TRAIN IS?

I have been on the message boards and keep hearing about this "protien train" and someone will ask what it is, and i have yet to find a response. I would like to know more info. about it so if you know what it is please let me know.    — cmontoya324 (posted on July 26, 2003)

Here is a post from the board that kind of explains what the PT is. Posties will use it to jumpstart their weightloss, or to get back on track after a carb binge:) Good luck! ====================================================== Welcome aboard the protien train! CHUGGA CHUGGA! Im doing about 2-3 protien drinks a day mixed in skim milk. They have about 30 grams of protien each, including the milk. I eat all the meat I can hold for lunch and dinner. I have had fish, steak and chicken for my meals. I have added one final protien shake in the evening... because that is my hardest time for snacking. Food addcits never sleep! I must admit Im not doing all sorts of exercise. Today I flopped around the pool with the baby. I am however drinking as much water as I can get down.

I think you just missed all the answers on the board that have been posted. It is simply going back to all protein and cutting all sugars and carbs out to jumpstart weight loss after slowing down or to break a plateau.

OK, I just can't hep myself, but ... if you're using protein shakes to get on the "protein train," and you wanna be in the First Class section of the train, mix your shakes with water only -- not skim milk. Skim milk adds more sugar grams than it does protein grams. (OK, go ahead and pelt me with your ticket stubs now ....)

I agree Suzy..what is with this milk thing??? Just say no to milk!! It's mostly sugar...and YES MILK SUGAR DOES COUNT!!!! Fruit sugar counts, real sugar counts...good grief, if it has carbs...it has sugar!!! ok..now everyone has my 2 cents worth...bring on the ticket parade...LOL (((hugs)))and smiles =)))
