Blended a scoop of BSN Syntha-6 Chocolate with about 5 ounces of nonfat milk and some ice cubes. Actually tasted like a chocolate milkshake.

Obviously there are no real results yet, but I feel better day to day. More energy almost.
The soreness going away is a result of both your body being used to being so active, and the increased protein intake. If you're trying to gain muscle mass, I would raise your protein intake a bit, by taking a shake about 30 mins before you start your workout as well.

I used P90x for a few months, and it helped me get into better shape, but the workouts weren't really for me, since they really focus more on endurance than intensity. As a result I've started doing customized workouts, and have been getting much better results. Though I still use Interval X from p90x+ for my cardio.
