I'm still kinda undecided on it. Milk tastes a whole lot better and gives you even more protein, but I find that a big protein shake with milk often makes my stomach feel bad. I'm thinking I'm probably just mildly lactose intolerant though. I've been lifting weights for a little over a month now. I'm seeing both numerical increases in the weights I'm lifting, as well as some increased muscle definition already. I'm proud of myself for getting this far since I've gone to the gym a couple times before to eventually quit shortly after. But it's become a good habit of mine now that I fully intend on continuing, despite easily still being one of the skinniest guys in the gym. on an unrelated note, I smoked a lot of pot last night and fell asleep at 2:30 and it's my last day to study for my last final, which happens to be at 8:30am tomorrow. my wisest choice? nah. not too concerned about it though, test should be very manageable. Everyone is a little lactose intolerant. We evolved to not be so.
