I wish I could get that much protein in me through drinks. do you enjoy the taste of the coffee? I find myself gagging anytime I try anything with add protein powder. I try getting my protein in only by eating and I think its not enough.  ive tried a few different powders but yuck! I don't mind the premade muscle milk but they are expensive

The best flavored ones I like are Syntrax Nectar Sweets--vanilla bean, chocolate truffle and strawberry mousse.  I make a 4 to 6 oz slurry of 1/2 & 1/2, 1 scoop of vanilla protein, a big dash of cinnamon and shake for about 5 seconds. Then, I fill the rest of the blender bottle with hot coffee. I like chocolate or chocolate raspberry. Always put the hot liquid on top of the protein slurry to keep it from clumping.

 

I am having a day off, I am having a day off

I hope you've had a good one!  : )

 

So, I got a smear test and the nurse told me that I've still got thrush - really!?  I'm now on a 3 month course of fluconazole every other day.  It's nowhere near what it was when I first got it as it so bad I just didn't know what to do with myself.  I also got some more pessaries! 

Not so good on the protein today as I was in an all day meeting and didn't have the best options.

B1 Chocolate protein shake	(30)
S Potato chips & strawberies
L Chicken salad	(30)
S Almonds	(20)
L Quarter pounder	(30)

I hope the new prescription takes care of the thrush. That's so frustrating.  : (
