Hello to all of my Lightweights!!!  If you are visiting WELCOME....PLEASE JOIN US and POST!!!!!

Writing everything down has helped me so much!!! I would really like to see some more posters.  Seeing what is working for others helps the rest of us put some variety into our meals.   It's very important until you reach Goal to figure out your Calories, Fats, Carbs, and Proteins so that you know what your body needs to lose and then to maintain!!!!

Amy, I hope the meds have kicked in and you are feeling better.    I am so fortunate not to have allergies.  My DH and all of our DD's have allergies and out of the 5 grandchildren our DGS has them the worse. 

Good Menu!  You do very well for all of the traveling you do.

My husband and I just had this discussion last night! I work Monday thru Friday, but his new job has him working Friday thru Tuesday. He's whining a bit, but at least we have our evenings together and there is still sunshine to me had and time to play outside with the little one :)

S3: Mint Cookie shake with a little pudding mix and 1/2 oz whipping cream to make it more ice cream like 23g protein

Very excited about menu today and committed to sticking to it :) placed some orders for healthier snacks and davinci syrups today (yay payday) going to get just dance 2 for my wii since all my friends have it as insist on having competitions when I visit, so i have to make sure I can keep up with them, also ordered some more pre-workout powder since my husband has discovered it to be a cheap alternative to energy drinks (he's a non-op, just likes the energry kick and anything that helps him be more active with me brings me joy.

did not exercise this morning (was very tired, will get back into AM routine when I get my Just Dance game). Will go to Curves after work before dinner and before grocery shopping

I've got in 43oz of fluid so far this morning, with no plans to stop. Only vite left is 1 multi/iron

Very much looking forward to the weekend, and I hope everyone has a fantabulous day!

I'm glad you found a variety of Protein that you like.  Having it in a can would be convienient.   I really enjoy my DaVinci SF Syrups.  Where did you order yours from?  Some companies won't deliver in the winter so I bought 7 bottles in the fall. 

Enjoy you just dance.  Hope you get good enough to beat your friends!

Good Menu!

I love my proteins, I'm one of those sickos who enjoy the tasteof most of them. this one just seems to really like me :)

supplementwarehouse :) their shipping tends to be expensive but for $4.89 a bottle who am i to complain? they also pack them really well (one of my friends just ordered 11 bottles from them a couple weeks ago)

i now own it, will be doing it in the morning!!

thanks bunches, still not very hungry, but may need a shake before bed if my rotein sucked (gotta check that next) my son is tucking my husband in (yeah you read that right) so i'm guessing that means its bed time

good morning! going to try very hard to say no to alcohol tempations this weekend because i am so frustrated and sick of not being anywhere near my goal weight at 1 year out.

b-hot cocoa protein with soy
s-1/2C greek yogurt w/wheat germ
l-atkins bar
s-muscle milk protein h20
d-protein shake with soy

cal-780
carb -19 net
prot- 100

100oz water
vits
probably slow jog a 5k then 30mins of weights

I don't drink alcohol but I suppose there are a lot of calories and carbs in it.

You try to avoid alcohol and I'll try to avoid chips.....

Are there a lot of carbs in the soy and muscle milk?  Have you tried mixing your protein in water?  That would save calories and carbs.

Ok we will both work on that! :) 

The muscle milk powder is 130 cal, 27 prot and 2 carb and the soy milk is 90 cal, 9prot and 5 carbs with 4gm of fiber so it's not too bad but it would be a good idea to do my shakes with milk every other day

***sigh***
Im not even trying anymore

B-Coffee
b- attemptedd tuna
L-continues to attempt tuna and a few bites of edamame ( I now give up)
D- Dont care any more will probably be Chobani


Same thing for tomorrow and every day after that until this gall bladder comes out Im not gonna even try anymore they all hurt like he!!.....There is NO WAY I can get in my protein needs now..
