New Start

Ok. SO I went to the vitamin shoppe and decided to buy some new protein powder. I ended up getting Jay Robb Whey Protein - Vanilla - it's good but they totally rip you off. The container was almost LESS than half full!!! that was ignorant of them I thought. I also got SPirulene protein powder cookies and cream. Now this protein powder comes out really thick. Which I kindof like because it fills you up more. The taste is pretty good. My husband loves it. I also got vanilla praline -... that one brand... darnit i cant think of the name, but it was one mentioned here I think. anywhooo... I'm going to start today. Which means I'm once again cutting out my carbs (junk breads and pasta) and having a protein shake for breakfast and a protein shake for lunch... snacks will be protein bars or somethign protein like. and then have a sensible dinner. Keeping my fingers crossed that I start loosing!  Now that I'm all stocked up on my protein i am ready to go! :)  come join me!

Reenie.... Connie!!! where are you guys???? Is everything ok??? 

I'm here, I'm here.  I'll try to get caught up this weekend.  I'm proud of you for hanging in there and not giving up.

Oh thank goodness! I was getting worried!!! I'm glad you're here :)  Hope you are feeling well. Yeah trying to loose this weight again. Got me some protein powders.  Designer Whey... vanilla praline... yuk.  Jay Robb Whey Protein Vanilla... yum but a big time rip off.  Spiru-tein cookies and cream... pretty good. one scoop per 8 oz so defintiely not a rip off. But its....weird. It mixes VERY thick, which i kind of like but its hard to mix thoroughly. the down side is that its 10g of sugar a scoop. soooo... there is a bit too much sugar in there. the others have like 2 or less grams.  anywhoo... gonna keep at it. I'll buy that other brand from wal mart everyone talks about. thats probably going to be the best anyways. stocking up on my protein bars too :)  ((hugs!))

I'm checking in, Elizabeth. You never cease to amaze me, you just never give in or give up. I'm very proud of you. Now that I'm about to leave work, after spending the day grazing on candy, I will join you in a sane, sensible weekend of eating, ok? I'm with you, my friend. You've got a buddy at your back. Take care, M.

OK, Miss Elizabeth... As of today, I'm back on the band wagon.  I'm so glad that you keep on keeping on because you inspire me.  I've been totally out ofcontrol for the last 3 weeks or so, but that's over.  I'm following your lead.  My surgeon is having a back on track workshop this week and I'm going.  I'll let you guys know what I learn.

Hugs,
Connie
