Good Monday Morning!! My ramblings...

Good Morning my friends!  I have my protein coffee, have shoved one kid out the door and working on getting the baby out the door.  Hubbins had been on leave for the last two weeks and I got NOTHING done while he was home!!  So this is my first week of no kids or hubby, I just might get something done....I hope.

Im right there with you!  Never thought I would actually be looking forward to a Monday getting here   lol.    We had my sons grad party over the weekend.  I got nothing done around the house.  I got 2 out 3 people gone this morning, so I have major house cleaning & laundry to do.  And yet here I sit on OH   lol.  Have a great day!   Cindy

Hahah me too!!  OH, FB .... and a few others...LOL

 Heres another "simple "  , natural , OTC but very effective at least for me ... suggestion regarding the energy / weight loss /concentration issue .   

Switching from coffee to TEA  actually  keeps 10- 15 lbs off because it  speeds up Ur metabolism slightly ..... U stay "up "and active  for many more hours without getting the coffee jitters or the insulin up anddown ( or the acid stomach )   and U drink a lot less calories from milk and sweeteners additives that coffee NEEDs and tea really doesnt .  

The whole Chinese civilization runs on tea....and they have a very inventive , creative , extremely hardworking culture .....  just an idea ....  but it sure works for me....

BTW  I was parked outside a starbux yesterday and watched the people going in and out for a coffee fix-  the vast majority of them were very much overweight .... HMMM.  
 

When I was in China (I went to hike the Great Wall in 2005), everyone had a to-go tea cup filled to the brim with tea.  They had loose leaf tea that settled in the bottom.  Taxi drivers, people on bicycles, everyone!

That is what my parents did, had a cup with them all day long. 

I love love love my greean tea and macha.  Depending on my mood and if I feel like grinding my tea...

I haven't found a way to make a good tasting protein green tea, unless I use the necter stuff.  But then my peoples didn't add anything to their teas.  LOL

I love the Rooibos teas.  They have the best flavor and no need to add anything at all.  I sometimes forget to drink them when it is so hot outside... thanks for the reminder.  I have a feeling I will be relying on them heavily postop.

Have a great day!

Ok, just made a pitcher of green tea with peach and mangos.

I ran out of chocolate protein and won't allow myself to buy any others until the rest of what I have is GONE.  Except for unflavored....

I have a Nectar tea with lemon and DON'T LIKE IT.  I finally figured out why (since I LOVE tea) is because it tastes like SWEET tea with lemon - ugh.  I like my tea el natural.... So, I have to decide if this gets put into the back of the cupboard or what I'm going to do with it.  I thought I'd just buckle down and drink it anyway, but today it was like .  If someone has a suggestion of a kind of crystal lite or something else to mix with it to make it good, let me know.  I have a Peach Team crystal lite but its just TOO much tea...
