So my 5 yo has finally gottten down riding the 2 wheel bike. He threw his training wheels away the other night. Me and the kids went on a two mile rides yesterday and it was so nice not hearing the loud sound of training wheels on the cement. My baby is growing up. Kindergarten next week. I think I am going to cry.

One of the better ones I have tried is Matrix 5.0. It is pretty inexpensive also. Around $36 for 72 servings. Just search it online. One thing about protein shakes is that they really are an aquired tasted. No matter what they are not the super delicious triple thick milkshake we want them to be. But mixing things in usually helps. Bananas are great to go with chocolate shakes along with some peanut butter (PB2 powder-only 40 calories). But you have to watch how much you put in or it becomes this high calorie atrocity.

Congrats Fairy!

Grilled cheese goes with pickles not ketchup.....

Lol j!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Two thumbs up from me also!

If it is of the sausage variety smothering any sort of breakfast type food...absolutely.

D good job on the commute. I have been slacking on that lately, but it is really ahrd to leave at 3am to get to work lol. As for the gym, DH gets all credit for that one. Had I been home alone I would have never done it. He basically carried me out the door. But once I got going it was not so bad. I even ran some intervals after lifting and we all know how much I loathe running. I did reward myself by showering and putting on my pajamas when I got home from the gym...at 3pm lol. The eating is getting better. I have been chewing a little more and not pbing nearly as much. I also tried the spinach dip chicken salad recipe on the nutrition thread. OMG is that effing delish. I dip some wheat thins in it. Wowza.

Glou....I was so just coming back here to post that link lmao.

That's awesome D. Let's see my NSV for the day was going to the gym. I bitched and moaned the whole way there but came home waaay sweaty.

That is really kind of sad in a way but no it is not real lol.

posting.............

So my daughter left her new glasses on the floor today and my son stepped on them and bent them. I hear her in the back of the house saying "I am so dead, Mom is going to kill me" I knew right then it had to do with her glasses. Anyhow when she comes and tells me and says it is her fault, then she says "Well Mom you know that God wrote the story of my life so this is kind of his fault too. Mostly my fault, but a little his fault" Sometimes I am just amazed with some of the things she comes up with.

That is awesome whos!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am just saying. Dan and I were talking about that happening at the hospital. I suggested it and he said "well then the hospital will close down because everyone will go on strike" True. But if you tell them they will be losing their job I am willing to bet at least 75% of them will stay over losing a job. Plus there are so many contingent employees that want full time that it could cover until more people are hired. There are so many unemployeed people around here that jobs would go so quickly. It is backward and inefficient.

I am in for the Tri definitely. Person I say dissolve the union. Once it served it purpose but now it tends to protect the lazy. No one deserves $25 an hour to twist in a screw. Tell them they can stay on their job or strike and lose their job. The unemployemnt rate in Michigan is so high that there are plenty of people who could handle line work and be willing to do it for $15 an hour. Furthermore, include health insurance for life after retirement but get rid of this pension bullshit. Put away your money in a fucking 401K or Roth IRA like the rest of us. I am not depending on any kind of free hand out, I am planning for my future. Sorry if this offends anyone but I am dealing with some major backwards union shit at the hospital right now and it just sets me off.

D, I change into scrubs at work and I don't ride very hard in so I am nto too sweaty. Wow that sounded very pornish.

J did I just read Triathlon in your post? You make me so happy.

I can tell you about the useless UAW that allows for line employee to go out on company time and get drunk and smoke crack in the bathrooms. All while making $26+/ hour working on the line. Medical leaves that last 6 months while people are off snorting their benefits and faking illness. Then taking early buyouts and making more money on their pension than I do actually showing up to work and working my ass off. And we wonder why the Big 3 are failing.

LOL I was not worried, I just figured you had the day off. I was just sad that I had no diet critiquing today lol. And I took the day off from the gym. My body needs a break.

J WTH were you this morning? I had to do actual work instead of crazy emailing. Just saying.

Sweet bike. D I hope you are feeling better. HP make usre you tell JC what's up and to get his ass back on here.

D!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You so so effing amazing girl!

Interesting. I wonder how far out they called since I take care of the OR materials at my hospital and know for a fact we have 2 on our shelf. I am also surprised they could not contact the rep to bring one in. You have every right to be downright pissed off. I hope everything goes well for you today! Good luck chica!

Yeah but i still hate running!
