Day 3

Wow, are my hamstrings sore and tight today from Plyometrics.  I have been increasing my protein intake to try to hit 50% which is really tough to do.  I have used protein bars and whey protein to supplement.  I bought some creatine today and took it before and after arms and shoulders and it really seemed to help with stamina.  I made it through that workout without a lot of trouble, but man, are my triceps gonna hurt tomorrow.  Does anyone else use or recommend creatine.  One of the side effects I do not like is water retention and I could tell that my hands were a little swollen.  My goal is to lose 40 lbs and gain strength, flexibility and stamina.  Down 2 lbs since I started and hope to see that increase.  Does anyone know of a place to find recipes that fit the program other than the nutrition guide?  Yoga tomorrow.  That should be fun, as I have never done it before.
