Good morning everyone. Barb sorry that the insomnia bug bit you last night. I only got barely 5 hours of sleep in so I will be dragging my butt today.

Barb I hope you like the GNC Pumpkin Spice shake. As I posted yesterday, I found them to be less sweet tasting and the spice is very subtle.

Today it's swimming, packing for our trip up north, general household stuff, the furnace repairman is coming over this afternoon, then a quiet night at home.

Good morning!

Anxious to know what you think of the shakes, Barb! Sorry about the insomnia :/

Off to work for another day of fun and frivolity, have to run an errand on the way home, not sure what else I'll get up to other than studying and hopefully an early night. I am so looking forward to the long weekend! For the first time in 7 years I said no to cooking Thanksgiving dinner for 40 or more at the local pub and I guess no one else stepped up (and apparently not the owners either) as it's been cancelled - I just don't have it in me this year. :(

Drinking the pumpkin spice now - its OK. Nice change. I like it equally to the vanilla. Banana and strawberry are OK and really dislike the chocolate GNC shakes

I had a ***** of a time finding a store that had the pumpkin spice in stock. I would purchase another 4 pack but I think thats it for me.

They were just due out for Thanksgiving so give it a week and they will be in every store. Ours still didn't have them last week but the manager told me by this weekend they'd be in. I am not a huge fan of them, I wish they were spicier so I doctored them up with some fresh nutmeg.

Good idea re the nutmeg - I like spicy pumpkin taste too.

Good morning everyone. Saw my breath this morning, definitely cold! Kind of concerned about the cold, I feel it way more now, and last winter I had a lot more padding than now to keep me warm.

Good morning Barb. A little insomnia for me. Just awake a lot. At one point I read for a little which put me back to sleep.

A woman at church passed away. I am sad I can not go to her funeral next week. She was an amazing woman and such a large part of our church. I just can't justify the time off with the conference starting the next day.

Biking home today and out tonight at my woman's group. I think I volunteered to run it tonight. What was I thinking.

b greek yogurt, raspberries, go lean cereal

l chili, source yogurt

s pure protein bar

d quinoa stuffed pepper and salad

s 10 almonds

I must find a GNC. The pumpkin sounds good

Back from an extra long girlz weekend in Vegas.....despite the extra indulgences I still managed to work out and got in over 20 000 steps daily....however the alcohol is probably what equated to my 2lb weight gain....although since my return is almost gone, no doubt it was water retention. I love that I am learning how to balance life and a healthy life style SANS GUILT!!!

S: protein cereal or a protein bar

L: 1/2 C of squash soup, 1oz of chicken, couple slices of avocado
