Baked snap peas or sweet potato chips r a nice alternative.

Personally. I love silk vanilla unsweetened almond milk. Especially for shakes it's the perfect viscosity without too many cals/carbs/sugar.

I make protein hot chocolate or protein cap For the hot chocolate I use vanilla unsweetened almond milk and scoop of chocolate protein powder just enough to mix with no lumps then I add hot water. For the protein cappuccino I used syntax nectar cappuccino flavor and do the same thing and add my liquid creamer then I pour a decaf k cup over it.

You can go direct to the Quest website they offer a sample pack also. I got mine this time from GNC when they were having a really good sale. It was >$19 for the box of 12.

I just tried the chocolate chip cookie dough. Mmm so delicious. I put half the bar in the microwave and it did taste like a cookie.! Yum

I was always hot and sweaty took me so long to cool off after entering buildings. That was before surgery. Now I'm as cold as a fridge. I always bring a jacket and my fingers are like icicles. My surgeon says it's quite normal I really thought I had anemia for a while.

I'm 18 months post op and I still can't eat a whole 6 in sub from subway. Too much bread in it. I could probably eat 1/3 of it if I pick off some bread. I love bread but it fills me up so fast sometimes I'd rather pick through and eat more meat first so I won't be uncomfortable. -

Right after I had my baby 3 months ago I would wake up and eat "lactation cookies" probably 6 in the course of the night bc I was waking up every 2 hours to feed her. I tried to downplay it to myself cuz they were "lactation" but really it was still butter sugar and flour with some lactation supplement in there lol. Also I lived off Quaker chewy granola bars at one point I was eating about 6 a day too. I can't even begin to bring out my skeletons from when I was pregnant lol. That is a whole diff story. -

I've been thinking about quitting using Splenda. I use at least 10 packets a day easy. I do it because especially in my coffee I like it sweet and I don't want to add 2 tbsp sugar for every cup. I looked at agave nectar the other day but it had carbs and sugar in it I believe. If I use it multiple times a day seems like that would add up to be unhealthy right? That's why I haven't switched but to be honest I want to find an alternative just because of the hype.

People said that to me right after I lost the bulk of my weight. I think it's because our bodies are still readjusting to the new weight.

I made my own. I have a nutribullet blender I just put about 3 tbsp old fashioned oats in there and ground it up. Equals about 2 tbsp oat flour.

For the cake 2 tbsp oat flour (ground up old fashioned oats) 1/2 scoop vanilla whey Protein powder 1/2 mashed ripe banana 3 tbsp liquid egg white / or 1 egg 1/4 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk 1 tbsp Greek yogurt 1 packet sweetener 1/2 tsp baking powder 1/4 cup frozen sliced strawberries thawed out For the cream topping 2 tbsp Greek yogurt 1/4 tsp vanilla 1 tbsp unsweetened van almond milk 1 packet sweetener Combine all cake ingredients except strawberries until smooth *Tip. Use very large mug Fold strawberries into cake batter Microwave 2.5 minutes Let cool while you prepare topping This makes 2 serving Nutrition per myfitnesspal (1 serving) Calories 138 Carbs 14g Sugars 6g Protein 14g Super moist, delicious, and guilt free Edit. I used 4 fresh strawberries cut up for the cake. And also some cut up strawberries and bananas for topping. So much better than frozen
