 Those both sound great! Thank you! Question, I was told it's ok to have honey while pregnant just not while breast feeding???? I have honey occasionally so now Im kinda freaking out!

 My OB said to avoid honey while preggo and BFing (also kids can't have honey until they are over a year) b/c it's not pasturized (I think?? Honestly not remembering the deal with honey at the moment, lol)... I wouldn't worry about it if you've had some honey while pregnant. I was craving baklava really bad during my last pregnancy, and I indulged in it a few times, even though it contains honey-- and my child was not born with 2 heads! After all you've been through during your pregnancy so far, you definitely deserve to not worry about another thing! :)

 I like the already pre-made Chocolate protein drinks from EAS AdvantEdge Carb Control drinks and they are low in carbs, sugar, fat and have 17 grams of protein.  Good Luck!

 I'm worried about this too.  :(  I didn't think to do protein bars, but i think I'll start adding them in.  I've done one protein drink and the results weren't pretty.  We can do this!  how far along are you?
