You're welcome! I hope you like it as much as I do, it's surprisingly good! lol My husband is very happy with the flavor, he said it was the first protein powder that he didn't feel the need to chug so he wouldn't puke! I think that's a good sign.

I don't know how it works with nutrition stores in the US, but here, I just went to a Popeye's near my place and asked for a sample of that flavor so I don't just drop $90 on something that I don't know I'm going to like. I love that they do that for people!

I have to admit, I've been really bad about drinking my shakes. I tend to eat dinner late, so when it's time for a shake I'm not even hungry and I just don't feel like I should have something else. I've had them a few times, when I've been feeling hungry at that time, but I should really try to be better about drinking them.

 

Low carb days are always hard for me too, I feel like I just eat the same things all the time, but I guess part of that was having so many low carb days in a row during priming. Usually for lunch on a low carb day, if I'm not at home I might stop at subway and get a grilled chicken salad with oil & vinegar, or if I'm home, sometimes tuna & mayo, sometimes I'll eat a boca burger with lettuce and tomato, cottage cheese and almonds. I'm not much help either, lol!

 

I'm nervous about losing this week. I just worry with having all low gi/gl days that I'll end up gaining because of the extra food. But I've been to the gym twice this week and will go again tomorrow and maybe saturday morning, so hopefully that will help too!

Congratulations girls on your losses!!

 

I was in my last week of priming this week and only had a small loss, .4, but I guess that's better than nothing!

 

I also had my first cheat day yesterday and it was great! Just in time too because I was just about at my breaking point!

 

Let's see, what did I eat, I started off with a bagel, had some twizzlers (okay a lot of twizzlers throughout the day!), chinese food and ice cream.

 

Today I'm back on low carb, I wanted to get to the gym today but couldn't get there before they closed, so I just tried to get a little bit of a workout in, in my living room.

 

Keep up the good work everyone!

Great job Kate and Jill!!

Great job everyone! Jill, you must've really enjoyed finally having a cheat day!

 

DH and I just finished week one. I lost 5.8 pounds! Crazy! Even crazier is that DH lost 9 pounds! It's always nice to get a great jump start to your weight-loss journey. I can't wait to actually feel the difference. So happy to finally have fruit today!
