Premier Protein & Foods

I bought the Premier Protein shakes from Costco yesterday. I have decided to try my best to have 2 a day in place of food. Today is day 1. Yesterday I replaced 1 meal with it and had fish and veggies and rice for dinner. I wasn't hungry after the shake. It, unlike other weight loss shakes helps with the hunger. I think it is because of the amount of protein. I got the chocolate ones and they taste good. I was actually thinking about blending it with ice in the am before work. I like my shakes extra cold. 

For dinners I have been eating flounder, salmon, chicken. Those are my go to but I am doing my best to stick with the white meats and the flounder and salmon are easy because they come in pre-packaged 4oz bags inside of a big like 4lb bag or something. I just pull a few out and toss them in the fridge at the beginning of the week. I get those at walmart. I also get frozen veggies california blend with squash and I toss it in the microwave for about 2 minutes while I cook my fish. I am ready to eat my own dinner in like 7 minutes. It makes it easy because I have to cook dinner for the husband and for my food allergic daughter. That way I eat first and I am not picking at their food while I cook, starving from thew day.

HI! I bought the premier shakes as well. And I'm still hungry within an hour after drinking it. It's only 160 calories, and I think our bodies are use to eating a 300-400 calorie meal. This is just a guess. So this week instead of eating dinner, I'll just have a shake.

Yeah I feel ya. That's a good guess. I have been actually eating 2 granola bars and an apple during the day due to the hunger. And it wouldn't be so bad but I am starving when I go home at night. I haven't been doing well. I ate pizza and gummy worms this evening. Over my calories. I guess it wouldn't be so bad if I had time to exercise. I guess that's me being lazy after work and being a mom. I'll get better at this. At least I'm trying. This week I'll switch to eating a real lunch and having the shakes for breakfast and dinner. 

It's so weird how my body works.  For some reason I didn't feel like even bothering with food today.  I drank a shake for breakfast, at 7 a banana an hour later,  then another shake at 10am. And I feel fine. Other days I feel like crap after I drink it. Starving. Foggy, not nurished.  But today I'm fine. Screw you body! Hehe

Don't give up. We'll get there! It's our turn!!

That's funny! I was too busy to think about it. I think it's a mind game. I need more stressful activities in my life. My work morning was tragic so I didn't think and being hungry! I was cussing at 3 of the employees. YIKES! Anyway... Time for shake 2!
