Happy Hump Day Botts:

It is a chilly start here in the South with high temps here today around 42.  I wore my longer coat today as I will be out and about in the cold...ugh...My eats for today are:

Breakfast:  Coffee & Miralax

Snack:  Protein Shake

Lunch:  Quest Brownie Bar

Snack:  Protein Shake

Dinner:  Quest Brownie Bar

Snack:  Quest Brownie Bar

I switched my shakes and bars around to slowly increasing my calories and to keep my body guessing on what is going on. Down 7.5 lbs. today.

Have a wonderful day, remember those vits and get in plenty of fluids especially during this time of the year when I bodies seem to dry out so quickly.

Good Morning Tess,

Question for you, are the Quest Brownie Bar chocolaty ??? I love chocolate and its my down fall... how do this compare to the Pure Protein chocolate delux??

Hi Linda:

I was the biggest fan of the Pure Protein Chocolate Deluxe bar until the Quest Brownie Bar.  I now consider the pure protein bar my candy bar and the quest brownie bar like cake.  I microwave on high for about 14-18 seconds depending on microwave and it is a moist, soft, chewy brownie.  Now for those of us who still eat regular brownies, of course those are better, but when you have been without, these are the bomb.  I tried the Fiber One Brownies but they were very dry to me and not very chocolately.  I am a self professed chocoholic.  I also like the peanut butter supreme quest bar heated up too.  Taste like a warm peanut butter cookie that you get from the mall to me.  Enjoy!

Thanks a bunch Tess.. I'm going to order some single ones from Netrition and see which one I like the best...

If y'all have a GNC they are carrying the quest bars now.  It will save you the shipping.

Thanks Tess... actually I place an order with Netrition and their shipping is only 4.95 and I also ordered other things that I dont' find here locally .... check them out... they have alot of good prices

I order my from Netrition too!  I also get my PB2 powder there and my DaVinci SF Syrups.  They Rock!

I placed my order early this morning, cant wait to try out the new protein bars... haven't placed an order in over a year... so I'm trying to get back on track with everything... lol I threw my BF for a loop yesterday when I wouldn't eat chips... he was like huh wants wrong lol

Good Morning Everyone,

I haven't been on the board for many years... have been reading all morning and trying to get back on track with vitamins and protein, I have a bad habit of drinking nothing but coffee early in the morning (I get up to work at 4am) and then dont eat breakfast until around 8-9am...

Early morning : 2 cups of coffee

Breakfast: 2 eggs w/2tbs of cheese/salsa and turkey sausage

Snack: Protein shake

Lunch: Turkey pattie w/pepper jack cheese

Snack: Greek Yogurt

Dinner: Manicotti (made out of crepes)

I'm hoping to be able to stick to my plan... day 1 here i come

Congratulations on getting back on track.  Just take it one day, one hour and one minute at a time.  You can succeed.
