Whatcha eating today VSGers...Monday!!

They should change the name from "Twisted Cherry" to "F***ed Up Cherry" ... BLEH!!!!

I was just venting about life as a single mom & being a "Debbie Downer" this morning but on the plus side I shared a little story of what my son told me last night (I can add it back on here).  He said he wished I had 8 arms ... 2 to work on his sister's school projects (because he knows I stay up late working on these after he goes to bed), 2 arms to hug him, 2 arms to hug his sister & 2 arms to hug myself because I am the "best mama in the whole entire universe".  I  just  my kids to pieces!!!

I hated the twisted cherry and I have also found, you must use your ball to shake it and/or use luke warm water to mix and then add ice.  I find that I need to ADD something to the "coolaid" flavor Nectars to really LIKE them.

It's too bad because for 23 grams of protein at 25 calories each, I really wanted to start drinking one for a snack to get easy protein in but you can taste the protein.  It reminded me of when I was putting unflavored protein powder in my Crystal Light the 1st few weeks out of surgery. 

Gawd damn, I swore off that stuff for life!!!

I missed your story, Jenn, but I hope things are better if they weren't before. 

I really wanted to like those nectars, but having tried the Roadside Lemonade and the iced tea flavors I just couldn't get past the texture and the taste.  They sent me flying back to the Unjury and (believe it or not) the BA shakes. 

 

Thank gawd I have found some great protein powders I like or I'd be out of luck!!!

I'm so excited...around Christmas time, i was like 138-139lbs. Today, i weighed in at 132.5! I'm so shocked to see so many lbs off this month. The past few month, I wasn't at a standstill but the scale was definitely only moving down a couple lbs a month. I think it's all b/c I have been focusing on logging my foods on MFP this month-something I hadn't done since the beginning, right after surgery. I am grateful for this accountability post also!

Breakfast-2.67oz center cut pork bacon  117 calories

Snack-5oz Chobani 0% greek yogurt, with a couple teaspoons of granola 120 calories

Lunch-2 oz chicken breast, 1/2 cup of raw spinach with Ken's lite dressing 111 calories

Snack-probably 4oz of more greek yogurt and/or 2 more oz. of chicken breast 65-132 calories

Dinner-2oz chicken breast, 1/2 cup of raw spinach with dressing 111 calories

Snack-?????

If I follow my plan up to Dinner, I'm at around 524-600ish calories, 22 carbs, 71 protein-got a little over 200 calories left to play around with before the day is out to stay under 800
