Protein Powder
Mar 02, 2009
went out shopping for protein powder last night. My first stop was GNC, they wanted me to buy a jug over $60. All men in the store, they ended up getting me to spend $9 on two samples of protien powder, but it was to increase mass in less reps.
I them went to vitamin shoppe. They said they had a lot of bariatric patients go there. They clerks were 2 females, 1 male. One of the females walked me through the store, gave me a couple of options. Had me try a powder in the store, Nector Cherrry (tasted like liquid jello at strenghth, will be ok watered down. I could smell the protein powder, but could not really taste it. The jug cost $35 for 36 shakes. The female also gave me 2 samples of other protein powders to try.
Also, I was very surprised. Vitamin Shoppe has a great return policy. If a customer purchases an item and hates it, they will give a full refund, with the redemption of the unused portion. ''
Also Kelloggs K2O water can be found at the grocery stores/Walmart, it only has 5 grams of protein, and 5 grams of fiber but tastes good.

At 215 need 199
Feb 26, 2009
I went to the gym last night for 2 hours. On tuesday it was 1.5 hours. I did 40 min cardio and the rest weight training. I want to lose weight b/c I am at the spot in every other diet where I can't get past. The last time I weighted 215 I was in 8th grade. I really want to get to under 200. I hope it comes soon!

I finally found someone who wants to go to the gym! On Sat we did all of the weight machines, 2 sets. And 20 min on the eliptical. On Sunday we did an hour of cardio 30 min of eliptical 2 miles and 30 min on recumbent bike 12 miles
I bought clothes over the weekend bcause everything I owned was too big. I am happy with my new clothing. It is nice to wear clothes which not only fit, but can from the regular clothing line, not the plus sized.

Why is it so hard to be happy?

Uuugh…
My fiancé is pushing me to go see a counselor about self esteem issues.
I bought a size 16 pair of pants and an 18 coat and look good!
I am not where I should be, I am eating candy everyday.
I am mediocre at everything, I don’t put my heart into anything.
I had a bad week at work.
