Topic: Everyone should get business cards
Hello Everyone,
Whether you're going to the NY event of not you should have a business card. How many times have you wanted to give someone your phone number and or email address and have to look for something to write on.
Plus going to an event it's a great way to keep friends by passing bussiness cards.
I've used Vista Prints for over 10 years - I love, love, love them. Usually I get 250 business cards for FREE... You olnly pay for shipping, and that I ALWAYS choice the cheapest one and it comes quicker than what they say.
Check them out! www.vistaprints.com
Have fun making your cards...
Hugs,

Topic: Heather?s Super Fabulous Protein Bars =)
This is a recipe from Heather, she is a OH Support Group Leader for POSE.
She made these lovely treats for our LIPO meeting and they were very tasty and filling.
Here is her recipe.
Heather’s Super Fabulous Protein Bars =)
1/2 cup steel cut oats or dry oatmeal (I use Trader Joe's steel cut oats)
1/2 cup almond flour (also from Trader Joes)
6 scoops protein powder(I use Pure Protein 100% whey)
3 tbsp flax seeds
1 cup non-fat dry milk
1 cup slivered almonds(or whatever almonds you have)
5 tbsp natural chunky peanut butter or unsalted almond butter
1 cup DaVinci Sugar Free Flavored Syrup
1/2 cup water
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Mix dry ingredients together. Add in peanut butter, water and almond syrup. Mix well. It will be a big sticky brownie-ish glob. Spray a 9x9 pan with nonstick spray. Spread mixture into pan. Use aluminum foil to cover edges of pan and mixture(like a shield for the edges) Bake for about 20 minutes. It should look done on top but slightly raw inside when done, as it will harden as it cools. Allow to cool and cut into 9 squares.
Makes 9 squares and each square is:
292 cals
16 carbs
5 fiber
15 fat
25 protein
*** Flavor variations: Chocolate protein powder with Almond syrup Vanilla protein powder with Hazelnut syrup Vanilla protein powder with White Chocolate syrup Cookies N Cream protein powder with Toasted Marshmallow syrup Vanilla protein powder with Peanut Butter syrup The possibilities are endless! Yum! Enjoy!

Topic: Last week before school starts!
Hello Everyone,
Hope you all enjoyed this quick summer. To me, the summer just started. I pray we have an Indian Summer till next March!!! :D
I'm glad that schedules will start again, this summer our home life schedule was all over the place. I never knew from one day till the next ~ how that day was going to go. Would I be eating breakfast right away, and or start with lunch, and take a snack and put it in my purse, just in case. Will anyone else be home to have dinner with? Or am I eating alone at 11:30pm
when I get home from work?
Then with the exercising, oh please!!! Is it gonna rain and or thunderstorm? Should we take the chance and drive all the way over to Jones beach, to find the Country Line dancing canceled. ugh Or can we walked and not die as we're doing it, because the humidity is sooo high.
Then who stops over to hang out for a while, now what and when am I eating, or making?
For the last six months, I've watched my scale go up and down a pound or two everyday. How frustrating!
The more I write the more I realize, I DO like a schedule.
So how about you??? Anyone want to share how this summer has been for them?
Hugs,
Debbie O'Neill
