Wednesday April 8th --- Share and Care!

Happy Wednesday!   Let's see how many we can get to "Share and Care" today!  :-)

I am looking forward to this evening.  I have Support Group and I always like to hear how everyone is doing and gather all sorts of new information.

Woke up to a light dusting of snow.  Bleck!  :-)

Hey, quick question...Can you put protein powder in hot drinks?

Hope that you all have a wonderful day!

{{{HUGS}}}

Good morning!!

I am pretty sure that you can put protein powder in hot liquids but from what I have heard you need to mix the protein powder into a cold liquid first to make a paste then put the hot liquid on with it.  IF not you will get  a lumpy mess!!

I am doing great today! Down to 217lbs......a BMI of 39.7 which makes me no longer morbidly obese!!! I am just Obese!! When I started this I was in the Exteremly morbid Obese Catergory...But 57lbs loss and here I am 10 weeks later!!! LOVING IT!!!

I am loving being a Secret Pal...I love to send my Pal ecards daily to make her laugh in the morning!! Its fun!!!

Anyways have a great day!!!

Good-morning Miss Renee,

I love support group days, they make me feel so good to be able to go and talk in person about issues, or struggles I may be facing in my journey.

Oh how pretty snow is, but such a pain in the a*s to live in.. I sure hope your day gets better for ya.

As far as the protein powder in hot drinks, you would need to mix it with something cool before adding that mixture to something hot. Otherwise you get a clumped up mess..

Example: If you have coffee and use cream or milk, mix the protein powder in with the cream or milk till dissolved, then add the protein mixed cream or milk to your coffee and you won't have the clumping issues.  Hope that helps hun..

I just want to say, THANK YOU to the person who has me.. Miss Leenie is awesome and we have hit it off right away, and I can't wait to get to know her better.

I also love the person I have.. She is amazing, and I hope too to get to know more about her.

Well I threw my back out, so I better go get back on the heating pad for a bit, but I am planning on doing something with the kids today (weather permitted) so that should be fun.. It is an early out day, so we will see what happens.

Hugs to you all, and I hope that the rest of your day is AMAZING for you..

Luv,
Jenn

Hey Hey Everyone!

Hope today is going good for everyone. The sun is out and that makes me a happy girl!
I decided I would clean my closets out today. I have a feeling Goodwill is gonna love me! Its so great to try on clothes that were so uncomfortably tight last year and now they just fall off. And another funny thing Ive noticed is how the color of my wardrobe has changed. Almost everything pre surg was black, brown, gray. And now, its a RAINBOW.

Renee, hope you have a good time at group tonight. And I too add protein powder to hot liquids just as the others described to you.

Kandice, Congrats on becoming Obese...lol Sounds like you are doing a great job!

Jenn, hope your back gets better quickly. Dont do too much to stress it but maybe just being outside with the sun on your face will make a feel a wee bit better, I know it always does me!

Today is one of those picture perfect weather get your butt outside days!  I was able to get out for errands for the office (court runs) and loved every moment I was out and about!  Just wanna take a moment and thank God for this miracle in my life and for you great people on this journey with me!  I can't believe how far I've come in such a short period of time and with such great folks!  Yes Indeed!

Thanks for all of the kind words and advice about protein everyone. 

I am not feeling well so I did not go to my support group meeting.  Also, it really is starting to get boring.  It is the same 8 or so people for the past year and they put a lot of pressure on me.  I just needed a break so not feeling well gave me a way out. 

Just going to kick back and relax for the rest of the night.
