Also, I'll check out the chocolate milk idea...and I may adjust my workout schedule to coincide with your suggestions. I am mostly fatigued right after my workout, for about an hour. I think it has a lot to do with my previous lifestyle and the fact that I am a good 55 pounds overweight.
2 weeks today. I guess I don't really have any solid proof that I haven't lost muscle. The increase in strength leads me to believe that I haven't lost anything of significance. I feel good, but that may not be enough.
I carry almost all of my weight between my chest and my knees, and I resemble a walking pear. I don't really expect to be gaining any muscle, I just want to maintain. Fat loss is my #1 priority for now.

Sadly I think whenever you lose weight your going to lose muscle. I think its just the nature of the beast.
I am trying to lose weight now after putting on 30+ dealing with my back issues. I am using
http://forum.bodybuilding.com/forumdisplay.php?f=16 ( which is the fat loss section of BB.com) . Its good for info and motivation.
I also ordered some Protein from there Got a huge jug of Whey, a smaller one of Caesin protein, and some fiber for like 68 bucks . I also ordered a body tape measure . I hit 75 bucks so I got a free battery powered mixer and they threw in a free razor too.
