Morning Roz,

Put too much sugar in my coffee this morning and now I can't fit the morning banana in

B: 2 coffees, Protein bar

L: Turkey and Cheese rollups, apple

D: Turkey and Cheese rollups (yes I'm that lazy ), the man will have turkey melts OR egg and cheese sandwiches, I'll let him decide.

S: Muscle Milk, Arctic Zero Chocolate PB ice cream (1/2 pint)

Total protein: 97, Total carbs: 109

Vitamins: on the list

Exercise: going to the gym to pump my muscles

Last thought: I'm finding my return to protein bearable by dressing it up. For example I put my muscle milk over a ton of ice and drink it through a silly swirly straw, and I cut up my protein bar into pieces so it feels like fancy chocolate. I don't know what works for you, but this does it for me. 

What kind of Muscle Milk do you use?  The ones I have checked out have a lot of calories, fats, and carbs.

We all have to do what works for us.  I can't drink Protein unless it is really cold with crushed ice in it or in hot chocolate. 

Hope you had a good workout in the gym!

Wait a minute...I didn't hear about DGS!!!!   That's Awesome!!!!!

I haven't found the Laughing Cow Cinnamon in our area yet.  Is it with the other Laughing Cow or is it in the cream cheese section?  Is it in one of the round containers?

Sounds Good!

Thanks.  His due date is 5/11 my poor DIL is so ready.  I think he is going to be big like his sister was!!

The Laughing Cow cream cheese is with the cream cheese at Walmart.  It is in the round containers like the other kinds of Laughing Cow cheeses.

Congrats!   5/11 is our wedding anniversary.  She might have a mother's day baby.  I always felt like I got ripped getting married that weekend after the kids were old enough to want to celebrate Mother's day. Our anniversary always got pushed aside. 

I don't think I looked in the cream cheese at Walmart.  Thanks!

More snow!! :-S  We had our warmest day of the year so far: 60 degrees today - yippee!!  I hope you get some nice weather soon.
