I lost for over 2 years. Don't get fooled if your body takes a rest from loosing and you hit a stall.

welcome!
What brand chocolate/peanut butter shake do you drink? I like mine, but I don't LOVE it.
And bootcamp WOW! I've always been a bit frightened of those.

I find the average large container of protein costs $50-$80 depending on brand and where you get it, but it lasts a VERY long time. Several months for me.
How long do yours last Roz?

Thanks very much TRMW... I didn't even know Matrix was a brand name for protein/nutrition products (found them on Amazon; still immersing myself in studying everything) - more to learn about products in the next 4 months of my 6-month prep for surgery...
I figured on incorporating protein products, but those are So expensive - over $100 and $200 for a jar, depending on flavor - yikes. I hope I will be able to afford this way of living on top of making all the healthy life changes... I know it's worth it. Have a great day!
its a whey protein shake powder. I also found it through Roz's posts and I love it.
Problem is for me, they don't have it here in Canada and I have to ship it up and pay big duty fees :(
I'll buy more next time I visit the states - it really is good.
