  1. Whats the difference between the two? Say USN's whey protein vs pure
    protein.

    I want to get leaner and lose body fat. Which protein supplement is best for
    this?

    The one which causes you to eat less and/or exercise more.

    Because that's how you get leaner and lose body fat.

    In my limited experience, it doesn't matter much. Most important is to
    exercise regularly and a lot, and if a protein supplement works for you,
    just find one you like and can afford. My current fav' is Met-Rx's
    "mega 100" or something like that - it's a bar. They taste good enough
    that I look forward to having one every day now.

    An MRP that tastes good?!

    Hmm.

    Currently I'm eating pan-roasted turkey breast and gorgonzola dolce on whole
    wheat with tabasco honey mustard; what's the bar like?

    Maybe it has a decent amount of fat or calories or sugar or something -
    I haven't really looked, but I find them very pleasant, particularly
    with a cup of coffee at four in the afternoon. But it's really just
    personal preference - who knows if you'd like it? OTOH, what you're
    eating now sounds very good.

  6. EAT LESS and EXERCISE MORE?

    I don't agree with that. They way I see it you eat the same amout (but eat
    different) and exercise the same amount. Otherwise you lose muscle mass.

    It's good you asked the original question but, now that you did, listen
    to David and the rest of us, please. For most people most of the time,
    adding muscle involves also adding some fat, and losing fat involves
    also losing some muscle. Exercise during both helps tip the balance in
    muscle's favor.

    As does switching out calories, proteins vs. carbs and fat.

  9. Thanks for the feedback.

    Please comment on this: I thought that during the cutting phase (losing
    weight) you eat more protein and less carbs and fat because protein does not
    make you fat.

    Also, which foods should I stick to then? And by how much should I decrease
    my food intake? I read that you must eat a lot of small meals during the day
    to keep your metabolism running to burn fat, true?
