Food & Exercise Log FRIDAY

terri, i was wondering, with that protein in the coffee drink you mentioned, what brand of protein powder do you use? i'm assuming it's unflavored, and also, i know some have concerns about the temperature of the liquid you're putting it into. right now i'm using a nonflavored whey protein by a company called jarrow. i like it alot, and it doesn't seem to have any temperature restrictions. i buy it at wild oats. your suggestion sounds fantastic, i'll have to try it, but still, i was wondering what brand you use. thanks so much for the info. patty

terri, the wild oats i go to is in west hartford. i love that store, and also there's the new whole foods, i'm not sure if they carry jarrow's whey tho. thank you so much for taking the time to respond. patty

OMG! I just looked at the weather forecast & it's supposed to rain here until Wednesday!!! Sheesh, we may have needed some rain, but did we need THIS much?? I have plans to go to a Boston Red Sox game tomorrow. Looks like we're going to get rained out. Bummer! I was really looking forward to it. It is going to be my fits time @ Fenway and my first MLB game. So, it will either be postponed or I'm getting REALLY wet on Sat. Anyway-here's my plan for the day... B: 1/2 FF Blueberry muffin (not the best choice, but I had a craving) Dannon lite yogurt S: Big ole coffee L: Lean Cuisine S:protein bar D: going to a place called Fuji Gardens in Pawcatuck tonight for the tepanyacki- I have NO idea how to spell it- but the grill table where they cook your food in front of you... Will have Shrimp. S: Bar hopping a bit tonight...so probably a drink or two will be involved. E: no exercise today, no time. Tomorrow I'm going to a 9:15 yoga fit class. Have a great weekend all!

Lisa I went Fuji Garden couple of times and it is good foods and fun to watch chef to cook front of you You will enjoy this! Have a nice weekend! Hugs Kathy K

Lisa, I am using Designer Whey natural flavor. When I mix powder to hot liquids I let it cool down a little before mixing. If it is too hot it congeals, but will dissolve with a lot of stirring once it cools a little. Since I have been making my own coffee at night, I have been mixing a scoop in with the cream first then add the coffee later. it will mix fine that way. t

Hey everyone, What awful weather out there, flooding everywhere. I hope your all very careful driving today. Its suppose to be this way all weekend. That stinks, we are having company tomorrow and were cooking out, looks like we will be eating inside. Looking forward to seeing you too Kathy and Jessica. I know Erin will be thrilled. We have a great group coming. It will be fun. B: Coffee milk and splenda S: achieve one protein drink L: eggsalad sandwich, alittle potato salad S: none D: not sure going to a dem tonight S: none did alot of walking around the building today since I could not go out. No exercise tonight going to a spa dem with Maryjo. Gonna have facials at My friend Ellen's, it will be a blast. Then tomorrow my crew will be over to help plan the picnic. Then Sunday I cook for my mom and dad. HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ALL YOU MOM'S OUT THERE!!!! Hugs KimC

Hi Everybody! Well , with all this rain we are getting at least we won't have to listen to all the "Over Reaction News" Programs moaning about a drought because of a milder than normal winter! B 2 poached eggs S 1/2 a banana L 3oz's grilled chicken with roasted peppers S Protien Shake after Gym D Seafood salad over greens for me. It's even man for himself tonight. I don't cook on fridays! Went to gym even tho it was raining cats and dogs. Took my Gorrilla costume with me just in case I started seeing animals walking in pairs down the Post Road. I'm not going to miss that boat if it sails! Have a great night everyone! Stay Dry!

It's late to join in but what the hey....! B - Protein Shake Water L - Grilled Chicken wrap with lettuce, tomato, horseradish sauce, roasted peppers, swiss cheese Water D - 1/2 salad, 1/2 roll, 1/2 of an eggplant roll stuffed with ricotta - OMG this was sooooo good - I ordered it Sofia's in East Windsor and they brought these two huge rolls and I could only eat about 1/2 of one - I was amazed because I think I am actually feeling a little bit of restriction - historically I probably could have ate both of them! Crystal Lite Ice tea and 10 M&M's (I know I shouldn't have eaten those stupid M&M's but I just wanted some chocolate..........I think I'm PMSing ) I'm starting to get my "the scale isn't moving anyway" thoughts into my head - not good - I've got to battle the obesity beast!
