Master  2429    Falls Church, Virginia |  Subject: RE: Manatee Mentors 2016Originally posted by melbo55 Originally posted by TXTriRook Originally posted by brigby1 haha, thanks everyone! I'll stick to the whey protein making sure to mix in a variety of M&M's to keep my diet colorful. If only they sold Smarties down here. I know the Canadians on here know what I'm talking about Originally posted by cdban66 There are a lot of M&M types now too. Plain and peanut, but also almonds, dark chocolate, mint, crispy, peanut butter, pretzel, mega to name some.Originally posted by jmkizer Originally posted by johnthecat Originally posted by TXTriRook Question for the group. For those of you that take supplements, which ones do you take and why? The reason I'm asking is because for years I've always taken a scoop of whey protein powder mixed with water post workout. I recently got a bag of SFH (http://www.sfh.com/recovery-2lb-bag.html) which includes creatine and a bunch of other amino acids and I'm wondering if I'm missing something by just taking the whey protein. I also take a multi and some fish oil but my question is related to a post workout "shake." Sadly my only supplements are M&M's and Gummy Bears. One bad habit I'm trying to work on this year. M&Ms = Vitamin C! Doctors say that a more colorful diet is better for you. At least that's what I've heard. US Smarties != Canada Smarties, two completely different animals. One of my Canadian teammates occasionally makes us Smartie cookies for post-game snacks. Do Canadian smarties = UK smarties? My husband always laments the lack of "proper smarties." |

I'm not sure but if they're a better version of a US M&M then they're probably the same. Now that I think about it, we had many better options North of the border. Mr. Big, Ketchup Chips, Oh Henry. Oh the good old days when I could eat all this stuff on not put on a lb! |

I can taste the difference between a lot of things, but the magnitude of the difference has always seemed exaggerated to me. So no, not gross.

Master 4452 | Subject: RE: Manatee Mentors 2016 Okay, hold on. American smarties are rockets? I.e. candy circles with no chocolate whatsoever? Wrong, wrong, wrong. Not that rockets don't have a place in the candy world, but they shouldn't be called smarties. Not that Smarties are the be all and end all though. They are the last one I eat in a Halloween chocolate multi pack. And yes, I do eat the red ones last. Good thoughts to your Aunt, Laura, and rainy thoughts to you Stacey. |

For those of you that take supplements, which ones do you take and why? The reason I'm asking is because for years I've always taken a scoop of whey protein powder mixed with water post workout. I recently got a bag of SFH (http://www.sfh.com/recovery-2lb-bag.html) which includes creatine and a bunch of other amino acids and I'm wondering if I'm missing something by just taking the whey protein. I also take a multi and some fish oil but my question is related to a post workout "shake." Sadly my only supplements are M&M's and Gummy Bears. One bad habit I'm trying to work on this year. M&Ms = Vitamin C! Doctors say that a more colorful diet is better for you. At least that's what I've heard. US Smarties != Canada Smarties, two completely different animals. One of my Canadian teammates occasionally makes us Smartie cookies for post-game snacks. These what I've known Smarties to be. Very similar to Sweet Tarts. And I love them!!
