I WAS the baker and that is what got me into all this trouble to start with. Its getting to holiday time. My brother just gave me 6 bottles of the good stuff PURE VANILLA and not counting the three I already had. What I need are things to do with all of this vanilla that does not incclude 5 lbs of sugar and flour to go with it. Any thing people. The good stuff will last forever but 9 bottles is a long forever Thanks PK

Topic: Drum Roll Please

Went to see my primary doctor today - and I am dow to 205lbs - 85 lbs down and 15 to get to goal - she was very please with me - was displeased at the reaction on my surgeon when i last saw him - told me that I have lost it all in porpotions (sp) and that she was very happy for me - wanted to get me on birth control - which was funny - so I am really proud of my self - I did have to do some inner searching the last time I saw my surgeon because it made me feel like a failure when I saw him - him telling me that I needed to stcik to the program and that I was either eating too much or too little - so I started eating mre - well actually I make 2 32 oz cups of iced coffee with my vanilla protein shake and drink those all day along with whatever i have been eating and needless to say it has helped I've lost 15 since the last time I weighed myself - so thanks for letting me share - SS

Topic: RE: century club

You are doing FANTASTIC, Petty!! Yep, time for that century card...it didn't dawn on me till today that I had also lost 100lbs! I have been there for a week and it just didn't register till now! Guess my pot was boiling over! I haven't asked for my century card yet. But I did post a new picture of the new me!

Sugar (and high carb foods) will make you feel hungrier..... At least that has been my experience......Stick with mostly protein and some complex carbs but not too muchy......

Cheryl, I just stumbled over here from the over fifty forum and can answer this question for you! Matrix perfect chocolate. You have to make it carefully! first you mix a scoop with cool water (just a bit to get it liquified) then slowly add hot (not boiling) water to it. stir and sip! I add also a scoop of Swiss Miss no added sugar to it OR a scoop of Big Train low carb chai tea mix and have it that way. I have it every morning and it is a great start to the day. I get mine at Susan Maria's site. Good luck!

Topic: Looking for a hot protein drink

Hello everyone, I have been having the same "stuff" for a while now. Surgery was 12/12/05 and have lost about 85 lbs since surgery. I drink Jay Robb Vanilla whey protein for breakfast and occ as a snack if I haven't gotten enough protein. Since its getting colder in the AM here is Mass I am looking for something I can drink on the way to work (I have a 45 min cummute) I started drinking Italian cappaccino from General Foods but the first ingredient is SUGAR!! and no protein in it!! (but tastes good-too good!) Anyone know of something like a warm maybe coffee or cocoa drink that has some protein??

Thanks!!!! Cheryl
