Menus and Miles Monday Aug. 31st

Hello to all of our Lightweights!!!  If you are visiting WELCOME....PLEASE JOIN US and POST!!!!!   Besides my tool,  I count  Posting on the LW board as my #1 reason for being successful on this exciting journey!!!!     

WARNING TO SELF AND TO ANYONE WHO WILL LISTEN!!!   AVOID 'BAD' CARBS AT ALL COSTS!!!  THEY ARE ADDICTING!!  THEY WILL SLOW DOWN YOUR WEIGHT LOSS DURING THE LOSING STAGE (and you won't even notice)!!  THEY WILL MAKE THE SCALE GO UP AFTER THE HONEYMOON PERIOD IS OVER.

Success in Maintenance starts with GOOD  CHOICES  during the Honeymoon Period.

I feel I need to repeat this:  I am a FIRM believer in Good Whey Protein Drinks!!!!!  I have IC (Irritable Bladder Syndrome) and I can only have them while I'm not having a flare up.   It is sooooo much harder to do Maintenance without them!

I'm playing with the idea of drinking less milk.. I buy the boxes of skim milk powder and use it everything particularly my endless chai tea lattes .  I noticed when i was in the City fora few days ad did have milk that I dropped a BUNCH of weight ( of course i hated drinking the empty tea ) .  D you guys do almond milk / rice milk soy milk lite ?  What is your opinion ?

I never drink any kind of milk but I do see others posting Almond Milk.  You might want to make a new post and ask others.

Sounds Good!
