hey sweety how do you make your protene tea and coffee just curious

Hi Catherine,
I've been out shopping today and just got on line.

Here is how I make mine.  Different people here make them a lot of different ways.
Protein Decaf Coffee - I use a large mug of a soup mug
2 cups of water - heat in microwave 2 minutes 30 seconds
while water is heating
Mix 1/2 cup hood calorie countdown milk(or whatever you use for milk) and 1 scoop Nectar Syntrax Cappuccino Latte protein powder - mix this together really good
In the water put 2-3 tsp of decaf coffee & 1-2 tsp splenda (you could just use 2 cups of coffee make in a coffee maker)
Pour protein mix into coffe mixture - enjoy.
Don't pour the protein powder into the hot liquid directly without mixing with something or it will lump up and not be very good.

Lemon Tea Protein - I make this in the large blender bottle with the steel ball in it.
16 or 20 ozs water
1 stick crystal lite lemon tea
1 scoop Syntrax Nectar Lemon Tea Protein Drink
Mix all together and shake good - let it sit for the foam to die down some.  Add ice and gentle mix.

Hope you enjoy these.  I couldn't make it without my protein drinks.
Linda

Won't try to add the calories and everything for today.  Too many bites of things I have no way to count.  I ended  up going with a friend to her families big dinner.  I did protein first with ham, turkey and a bite of roast, then added a spoonful of green beans, potatoes, some kind of pineapple something and 1 bite of the filling of a german chocolate pie and of a cherry cobbler.
All in all, my plate was no where near full and I was not stuffed or even feeling full.  I felt very successful.

 Happy Thanksgiving.  I'm not adding up totals today either because it was just too many bites.  But I want to write to be accountable.

B.  8am  - 2 oz pot roast from last night
L.  noon - 1 oz cheese and very small piece of sourdough bread samples at Whole Foods
D.  4pm - Bite of turkey, mashed, stuffing, gravy, 1 radish, cranberry sauce, kale, sweet potato, pumpkin pie, flourless chocolate cake (that was 3 bites)  I was full but not stuffed like the turkey
S.  1 fuyu persimmon

Fluids - good
Vitamins - still need my multi before bed
exercise - 3.25 mile walk around the lake this morning

Not the best day because I know I'm very short on protein, but not the worst for my first holiday meal.  I felt pretty good about my plate and am looking forward to being right on plan tomorrow.

Thanks for letting me be accountable!  :)
