XP.. A little bit of this and a little bit of that.... all in one....
In just one thread I am talking about a little bit of this and a little bit of that and also extending a warm invitation to ALL (see link on my siggy line) ......
Trust I am not too keen on chocolate but after a long day at work .... getting aggravated with traffic and coming home to a very moody DD who is so aggravated being ill and wants to get up and go as before but needs time to recover and 8 ferrets demanding quality time on the floor with them ... and getting up to a flaming hot flash lawdy this one really crept up on me ... to sit down and enjoy one of these was ohhhhhhhhhhhh sooooooooooo heavenly....and finger licking good....
The whole pint has 150 cals and about 14-16g of whey protein concentrate ... I only have a half a cup at a time ... it is delicious and filling and one spoonful over my fill line and I am bound for regurg so I keep it simple....
The flavor is delicious ... picture me saying that about chocolate ... I had the chocolate mint cookie and oh my it is FINGER LICKING GOOD .... TRY IT! YOU MAY LIKE IT!!! I love the Maple Vanilla BEST though....
MMMMMMMMMMMM DELICIOUS!!!
This is some information from their FAQ on their site ... copied and pasted... I know they are tooting the horn to their product ... but for the cals, the taste, the coolness and the protein value ... I found it tasting and feeling like just what the doctor ordered.... it was soooooooooooo good I twiddled my toes... SINFUL PLEASURE indeed....
DISCLAIMER: The information below is copied and pasted from the FAQ question on the ArcticZero.com website ... I just copied and shared it as what the manufacturers are saying about their product ... I am not pushing any products nor encouraging usage of it... as a post WLS person I bought it... I tried it and I found it sinfully delicious on a hot day and no difference in taste than regular ice cream ... I loved the taste... the caloric value and the value added protein .. so for me WIN.WIN.WIN

I AM SOOOOOOO LOOKING FORWARD TO THE LONG WEEKEND ... I WILL BE RELAXING AT HOME WITH MY FAMILY AND WHILE DOING SO I WILL BE INDULGING IN MY FAVORITE PASS-TIME OF SKETCHING AND PAINTING ..
I LOVE TO SKETCH PEOPLE AND PAINTING ON CANVAS ... BY EYEBALLING A PICTURE OR AN AVIE I PAINT IT USING ACRYLICS ON CANVAS ... or EVEN CLOSE MY EYES AND PAINT WHATS IN MY IMAGINATION... Will be doing a sketched summer runway and sewing the duds for the sisters who provide me with their measurements and showing how to or making patterns for others who are inclined do to their own sewing ... FUN.FUN.FUN ... if I could just draw and paint I would never ever leave home LOL...
I will be sketching and painting members with their permission or request 'free or any strings attached or any charges whatsoever' I have never ever once charged for my art .. my hands are gifted to draw and paint in my own way and I give my gift freely. I will be sharing these on my OH group that is open to everyone ... we share everything from fashion to how-to's to arts and crafts and everyday living ... it is fun filled and interesting to see how many talented people are in our midst.... ...
EVERYONE IS WELCOME TO JOIN my OH Group Share-IT! Living Pretty ... LINK IS IN MY SIGGY LINE ... Come check us out ... or just lurk or share or participate ... you are our honored guest...
This polka dot dress was shared by Stacey as wanting to have the 50's back in style ... I loved it ... I sketched one of the OH sista in it and I tweaked it to my liking and made one for me ..my version ... and I shared it last Sunday as I worked on a couple of summer maxi's for another beautiful sista on here ...
Stacey shared this and her liking for this style ... and I sure do to
I immediately decided to sketch the dress on my beautiful OH sista ALAPAULA ... Paula loves to rock a dress too and I know she wouldn't mind ..she is doing an awesome job with her WLS shrinking right before our eyes.. here is my sketch of Paula in the dress...
... and I made MY OWN VERSION OF A POLKA DOT DRESS ...
but then there is nothing new ... I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN SEWING OR PAINTING ... or sharing pictures from my digital journal "A Picture a Day Keeps the Pounds and Inches at Bay" .... Moi.. a picture sharing fool LOL...
HOW AWESOME IS OH? for allowing a goofy old fool like me 4 years and 4 months post RNY sharing pics and canvas and all manner of shared info since my join date in 2007? AWESOME I SAY!!!! And more awesome are the wonderful people met on here some I met IRL at the OH Conferences where once again a number of us from my group will be meeting in NEW YORK LONG ISLAND CONFERENCE IN OCTOBER ... I can't wait!!!! I am taking the ferry across the Sound and I will the there .... I have been to several OH conferences and they are AWESOME ... lots to learn ... lots to see and participate in ... and an awesome opportunity to meet all the wonderful people we speak to on here ... another WIN. WIN. WIN.
