Frankenstorm

[SexySlim 107]

So I'm near DC and things aren't looking good. Both Lowes and Home Depot are sold out of generators. I am not looking forward to losing my food. They are telling us to prepare for 10 days without power. Anyone have any ideas for Protein? I'm not looking forward to drinking warm muscle milk.

How far out are you? I'm on my phone can't see profiles.

Can u tell me about this storm?

[lessofmeismore 1,405]

Ooooooo just read the news on the storm ... Yikes

Get plenty of bottled Water, canned tuna/chicken

Beef Jerky if u can do that

Good luck!!!

thats just what I was thinking, canned foods...water, beef jerkey & assorted nuts and some fruit - canned and fresh.

Take care, I heard this is gonna be a doozer.

Canned meats or meats in those foil packs (may be smaller serving sizes?). Nuts are good since you're 6 months out that should be OK.

Protein bars perhaps? I found a brand "Thick Thin" that are relatively lower in calories than many others. Their dark chocolate bar has 230 calories, 20 gr Protein and 26 g carbs (I don't really watch carbs too much).

Make instant sugar-free pudding with evaporated skim milk (from a can) and add some extra Protein powder or powdered skim milk.

There are clear fruit flavored protein ready-to-drinks that wouldn't be too bad at room temp. I drink a Cytosport whey Isolate Protein Drink daily. They come in watermelon, tropical and tangarine. One bottle has 32 gr protein and only 1 carb.

Good luck - hope you weather the storm safely!

Thanks everyone. I think I will get some canned chicken don't think I can do plain tuna without gagging. I do have a tub of nectar left. I had to stop drinking it because I drank so much right after surgery I got tired of it. And I think I will grab some bars. I just hope this storm isn't as bad as they are predicting.

What is nectar?

[SexySlim 107]

What is nectar?

Protein powder by Syntrax. They are fruity flavors and you mix them in Water or crystal lite. I have the fruit punch one. Forgot the name of the flavor. It's blue. If you can get past the smell, it tastes really good. They sell sample packs too with all the flavors.

Isopure is a prtotein flavore drink also. I've heard that they are really good too. Can be drank warm/cold.

The ideas above are really good ones. Good luck! I've been watching on the news (in Aus) that you're in for a big one.

Soooo I got a generator!!! I got really lucky. I went to lowes at 6 am and they still didn't have any. This one lady called Home Depot and they had a few left they said come now! So I got one. I'm so glad I have gas so I can still cook and take hot showers.

This would be a good reason to have gas! I didn't think were any lol. Good luck! I'm near Louisville, KY. (Actually by henryville, IN where the tornado hit this year) and they're preparing US for wind damage and rain even. Good luck to you! Keep us posted!
