Favorite hot beverage



Recommended Posts

I was so cold last night that I wanted something hot to drink to warm me up. What is your favorite decaffeinated hot beverage? I haven't had caffeine yet even though I know we can. coffee, hot chocolate or tea suggestions?

Peppermint tea with a splash of lemon. Sometimes I even add a bit of unflavored Protein Powder to it.

@@jenlovestim

question above is timely/funny to me

i was at GNC a few days ago

picked up 3 cases of GNC Total Lean shake 25 gr protein!!

(swiss chocolate)

(buy one case, other 1/2 price!!) too good to pass up

salesperson suggested i microwave the shake :rolleyes:

nuked, stirred, nuked etc for total of 2 minutes

yum yum yum

"warmth"/hot keeps my little tummy happy for a long time

proudgrammy I really like the GNC total lean chocolate shakes cold...I never thought to heat them up. Thanks for the tip! I don't like the bariatric hot cocoa's I have tried...they taste "fake". As for me and hot bev's I like Decaf hazelnut coffee. It's my morning indulgence.

I found a blueberry tea at Wholefoods that I had been drinking on ice for a few weeks when I decided to nuke it and had a little Splenda. It was pretty good and Country Peach from Celestial Seasonings is good warmed with a splash of cream!

If you have a teavanna near you they have amazing decaffeinated loose leaf teas that you buy by the ounce. I have a chai and chamomile blend that I drink in the winter time

Protein'd Chai

Nestea instant tea, (decaf if you like)

vanilla Protein powder

ginger

cinnamon

ground cloves

You can use Water or milk or a combo of the 2

Heat you liquid without the whey in it or it will clump

You may have to experiment with how hot the liquid can be, (I recommend less than boiling) or it may cook your whey - blech!

Toss in a ball shaker and shake once, then butp, twice the burp, rinse and repeat until you get it mixed well. Hot liquids + whey in the shaker can be volitile if you don't burp them so don't skip that part!

Don't make any more than you can drink in a sitting, because you'll not want to put this in the microwave and warm it up. Again, chunks, yuk!

Pour in a mug (I use a go-cup thermos to retain the heat) and enjoy a spicy, foamy creamy high Protein treat!

You can do the same with coffee. I do a protein'd latte every morning!

Good luck!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
