Menus and Miles Monday June 13th
HI everyone! Sorry for the silence, they've been cracking down on non-work-related internet use. I'll try to post on my lunch breaks since they don't really count :)
I hit my 100 pounds lost this weekend, so I'm in a very good mood
RNY maintenance(ish) 10.75 months out
Pre-Work out: 3gm protein
Curves: 30 minutes
IsoSensation 93 Banana Shake with a tiny squirt of SF chocolate syrup: 30gm protein
B: Breakfast Cookie Bar with cottage cheese: 19.2g protein
L: Tuna Casserole, baby carrots, chocPBban "not cake": 15g protein
Snack: laughing cow cheese, leftover cottage cheese and breakfast cookie bar unfinished from breakfast: 17.9g protein
Apple Ecstasy with benefiber: 23g protein (re-trying some of the nectars in hopes of getting a new flavor on next order, so far crystal sky and fuzzy navel are tied)
SWIMMING (please be warm enough!)
D: leftover cauliflower crust pizza topped with cottage cheese, textured soy protein, and cheese and maybe a salad if still hungry: 19.1g protein
Dessert: 1/2 NAS ice cream with kashi and blueberries: 7.4g protein
Totals: 1223 calories, 45.5g fat, 85.3gm carbs (57.1g net), 135g protein
Intentionally increased calories and am no longer in starvation mode!!!!!!!
Spent a lot of time yesterday baking the breakfast bars, "not cake", tuna casserole, TSP mockafoni, and cauliflower crust pizza. Also got in some pool time and am feeling pretty great over all :) May post recipes on my blog tonight, we'll see. Been having a lot of fun playing with these

Yay, good for you on the 100lbs lost! You've earned the golden apple! See it in my signature, and you can copy & paste it right into yours. Congrats, way to go!!!
Also, what brand banana protein do you use?? I love banana flavored things... banana wacky taffy's used to be my favorite... If I could find a banana protein that tasted like that, I'd be in heaven!!

"Create your day"
thanks!! this one is kinda similar, Ultimate Nutrition makes it, Iso-Sensations 93 is the label and I got it from supplementwarehouse. It's pretty tasty and it's 30gms of protein. their prostar label also has a a banana flavor but i haven't tried that one yet. but this one makes great breakfast cookie bars and "not cake"s :D
Did much baking yesterday, here's some recipes:
Breakfast Cookie Bars:
Original recipe was for cookies but I prefer to e able to know exacly how much of the ingredients are in each serving so I poured it like a cake batter and baked then cut into 12 bars. Here's my version
3/4 cup applesauce
1 large egg white
1/4 cup almond slivers
1/4 unsweetened coconut flakes
1/4 cup banana protein powder*
1/4 cup cookies n creme protein powder*
1 square baking chocolate
DaVinci SF syrup
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup ideal**
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 ground flax seeds
Toast almond slivers and coconut flakes, set aside
Mix applesauce and egg white together, set aside
Mix all dry ingredients together
Melt the baking square with a splash of flavored SF syrup in the microwave.
Blend all items together let sit for 5 minutes.
Make into cookies or pour into a cake pan. Bake at 350 for 15 minutes.
*use any flavor protein powder you want as long as it equals 1/2 cup. Baking chocolate may be omitted if your flavors are better without it. I added this to the original recipe because teh almond joy ones I made weren't very chocolately. I love chocolately.
** I used Ideal, ut you can use any sweetener you like, I would recommend a granulated one, batter is runny enough as is.
Modified "Not Cake"
Original recipe stolen from www.genaw.com "Linda's Low Carb Recipes" i think she even borrowed it from someone else. My mods make the not cake more cake like
4 TB Butter/Margarine
4 TB Applesauce
3/4 scoop perfect chocolate protein powder*
3/4 scoop banana protein powder*
3 TB defatted Peanut flour
1 lg egg white
1 tsp baking powder
Soften butter in microwave, add all othe ringredients, pour into pre-greased baking pan, bake at 350 for 10-15 minutes or unil firm.
*Same as before, any flavors protein powder you want, make it a total of 1 1/2 scoops

The Twisted Cherry and Lemon Tea both had a bad aftertaste to me. The Apple Ecstasy was only tolerable with some pear flavor drops added to it (I freaking love apple everything so this was the most disappointing). The chocolate truffle is good but not worth the price. Can't stand the vanilla bean or strawberry mousse. The carribean cooler has almost no taste at all to it. So i'm definately down between fuzzy navel and crystal sky. If i put it off long enough I may be able to justify buying both ;) I've still vgot one more sample packet of each to retry, one more twisted cherry but I'm not holding my breath and one more carribean cooler but that's going to be made into a pina colada jello yogurt popsicle.
Aiming for 1300 (I love my 13's) should hit it tomorrow what with it being a zumba night and all :) but i think here's still that fear keeping me just under it
Ahh just finished my ice cream and put away new (to me) clothes. time to kick back and relax, i hope he res of your evening is wonderful!
was too cold for me to swim but i watched the guys go nuts, little one is already passed out
