I've heard the same things, but it's so cheap here that you just gotta drink it. It's about 60% the price of cow's milk.

You do not need to take protein supplements to stay in shape -- you are currently eating like you are weight lifting for sport or you are about to wrestle a bear.

eat like a regular human being, and eat foods high in protein.

you sound like your absoultely ripped based off your diet -- i dont think you need that, and i dont think many women (in this case, your wife) care for over muscled men either.

sorry to sound negative, i think it's great that you've been staying fit though.

just my opinion


Not ripped by any stretch of the imagination. If I were, I wouldn't eat this way. I can't wait to get into decent shape and then go back to eating less just to maintain bodyweight.

I am sure someone already mentioned this but all that milk you drinking is probably one of the main reasons why you fart. It is not that your body farts, it is the E. Coli in your system that produces flatulence. So when you eat something full of lactose (milk, cheese), the E. Coli get crazy and go NOM NOM NOM and produce that fart.

Feels good paying attention in school.

I was actually stumbling on the internet when I stumbled on a site that said Soy IS bad because of how it increases estrogen production. If there is more estrogen, then it decreases testosterone production which is what you want during work outs.

And a fun fact, Jack in the box tacos are made out of soy.

Good chance of it being diary since a large percentage of Chinese are lactose intolerant. It's hard to find raw milk in a grocery store since pasteurized milk has a longer shelf life. Make friends with a farmer if you can.

The soy milk could also be causing the problem as well. Link. As for the estrogen content, soy is fine if it is fermented. Unfermented soy mimics estrogen and contains anti-nutrients, which is the kind of soy that is usually sold in the US.

It's very unlikely to be animal protein since our digestive systems digest those very well because of the hydrochloric acid in our stomachs.
Process is more important than the result

Is it possible your healthy diet expels more noxious/poisonous gas that would otherwise stick around inside? (ie; more toxins out of the system = healthier)
..and then I would, ya know, check em'. (Aka SpoR)

The attraction behind drinking a ton of milk (even for me, and I'm slightly lactose intolerant) is the huge calories, saturated fat (promotes hormone levels, particularly testosterone) decent protein quantity (128 grams if you can down the whole gallon) and low price (whole milk is like under $5 for 2 gallons where I live.)

Do you ever stop before you post and just think for a second, "Hey, do I have any idea what I'm talking about?"

So this guy walks into a spa and he says "I'd like to have a milk bath" the spa girl asks "would you like that milk pasturized" he says "no just up to my waist will do"

You know, I know exactly how you feel about eating better and getting exercise. Life is just so much better its hard to describe. But, I had the exact same problem when I started eating healthier too and I had to make some adjustments

You might try getting rid of the soy. Some people (me) can't really digest it and that can definitely cause some spectacular gas. Try substituting rice milk or something if you must have milk but that's on top of my list of suspects in your diet.

The muesli may have something in it as well or you may be slightly lactose intolerant (there's a LOT of diary in your diet). Whole grains can also cause gas but don't solve that by eating white bread!

Of course, I'm a white dude in America and you are in Singapore (I don't know your ethnicity) but we may tolerate different groups of food completely.

I know it looks like a shit ton of protein, but it isn't really. I calculate it everyday to make sure I get 1.5g/pound of bodyweight, max. Sometimes I'll miss out one of those meals, or take a little less, but I thought I ought to list every single thing I can think of in case one of them was the problem.

I don't especially like drinking milk as a snack (I don't like drinking milk at all), but I don't want to bring milk to work because it's heavy. So on days when I get home at about 4:30 I force a mug down when I get back because I'm hot and sweating and thirsty and it's that much easier to drink, so I just put it down as a "snack".

I don't think supermarkets here sell unpasteurised milk but I'll take a look around anyway.

1.5g/lb of bodyweight is a fucking ton of protein, it should be about 1 g/LEAN lb of bodymass lol

If you are 150 lbs, 10% bodyfat, then you'll need about 135 grams of protein a day.

If you're 150 lb and you eat 225 g of protein a day, you're gonna be fartin and gettin your intestines raped all day long hahah

it's a change in gut flora, thus a change in gas. you/everyone else will soon get used to the smell and eventually it'll seem like "it went back to normal".
And you know if a grandmother had a penis she would be a grandfather.
