blueangelkc80 started following Somemthing i've been wondering - college students, Decent tasting Protein shake mix, At-Home Workout Videos and and 7 others
-
Vitomatic makes a protein powder that is pretty good as well. I have a hard time with breakfast in the mornings so I am more likely to make a protein shake to take to work with me first thing in the morning and that one mixes well and doesnt have the after taste I have noticed with a lot of them
-
I also use the Jillian Michaels 30 day shred and I also use the Biggest Loser weight loss yoga dvd, both give a really good workout
-
The one I stumbled on through the dietician at my Doctor's office is by Vitomatic and is the one protein powder I found I can stand the taste of and it mixes very well. It comes in 5 different flavors and all of them are pretty good and I think its low in carbs as well.

I also usually avoid putting onions in my chilli beacause I really don't care for them. I am another one who hates dishes and they will sit until I run out and have to do them, however I got them all done and got ambitous and made some food for the week such as black bean burgers, the bacon cheeseburger quiche recipe on here which i cooked in a muffin tin for individual portions and home made granola bars to take as a snack to work. All of which came out pretty good. Now I just have to clean up again.

I actually have 4 small containers of homemade turkey chilli in my fridge right now. But sometimes with full time work and school its easier for me to use that if I dont have time to cook, though I dont get it that often.
-
The hormel turkey chilli that I get has beans in it, I havent seen a no bean version of it. Where did you get it?
-
My doctor also suggested adding zinc to my vitamins to help with hair loss. The other thing I use that seems to have helped is the Nioxin(sp?) shampoo. My hair was already really fine and kinda thin so when I started losing I freaked out.

I have made it with different vinaigrettes before and its turned out pretty good. You could try that. -
For me my cardiologist actually suggested the surgery and helped me get going, my former primary care doctor however was a whole other story, she was not very supportive about it at all and made it slightly difficult to complete the process but I did not let it get to me and went through with it and got the band October of 2008. She is also no longer my PCP after the lack of support and then with the physical before surgery my insurance was being a pain and denied some initial appointments from the surgeon and then denied the physical but the surgeons office resubmitted and insurance paid, her office did not. When I saw my cardiologist in July he sent me to a new PCP because I suffer from migraines so I need access to a doctor to get my meds for that.

Is anyone eating 60-70g of SOLID protein AND meeting other requirements?

Canellini beans are basically a white kidney bean, I think they are used a lot in italian dishes, I was watching foodnetwork a couple weeks ago (tv is usually background noise for homework) and Giada DeLaurentis made a salad out of edamame, cannelini beans and a couple other things that looked good so I found the recipe and tried it and it was pretty good. I know both the edamame and beans have decent protein so maybe thats something to try, feel free to message me if you want the recipe and I will email it to you. -
A lot of people on here use the daily plate or fit day and seem to like those, I am sure there are others out there as well.

Does anyone have a redi set go?

I had seen the informercial of the original one and was doing some looking and what keeps coming up is that the nonstick coating peels off quickly and the lid blisters, some people have it and love it and others hate it, personally I will wait until it hits stores to check it out that way I am not getting the run around or getting charged for a bunch of stuff I don't want or need. It is a cool idea though. -
I have my Bachelors in Criminal Justice from Indiana University and am back at University of Cincinnati working on an Associates in Forensics, as well as working full time for the Courts in Kentucky so I understand about the meal issues, I am still working on it and I had my band done 10/23/08

Covington, KY right outside Cincinnati, Ohio, I have been MIA on here for a bit due to some personal things happening and I am just now getting back on here and getting myself back in gear
