[Justin 0]

222,000 Democratic Votes

114,000 Republican Votes

38% went to Obama with 30% to Edwards, 29% to Hilary

34% to Huckabee, Romney at 25%, and Thompson at 13%

I know it's not Lap Band related, but I'm ready for change.

Pretty cool! But yeah, this probably belongs in the Lounge.

Hope you're doing okay!

Im doing great. Moved too much today so I got sore. I find that Im allergic to a lot of protien powder (tried Soy and Whey) and both have issues.

You might try getting some chewable Lactaid to eat right before you have a shake. I've had bad reactions to Protein powder before and I'm not normally lactose-intolerant but the Lactaid helped.

Also, have you tried Low-Carb SlimFast? It has 20 grams of Protein per 12-oz can and my doctor thought it was fine for me to use it, even during my Clear liquids stage. He also recommended Carnation Instant Breakfast but I never got around to trying it. Hope you find something that works!

Sorry for posting in the wrong spot, still new here

Wondered when someone would get around to posting about Iowa.

Got to say I'm lovin' Hilary's 3rd place showing.:whoo:

Just can't stand that gal, tried, can't, sorry. My MIL thinks I'm an embarrasement to the female race for not supporting Hillary but personally I'd be more embarassed to be an American or a female if she was the best we could do for our first Female president.

To all the Hillary supporters, I am sorry if my comments offend. Despite my lack of respect for Hillary I have nothing but respect for anyone else who chooses to take the time to get interested enough to back someone even Hillary:heh:.

Hi Justin:

Are you allergic to eggs? If not, you can get egg white Protein. It's all Protein, no carbs or cholesterol and can be mixed into just about anything. I order mine from SportProtein.com .

I am always curious why it matters what one state says? Everyone acts like it's a big deal, but.. it's one state.. So I is confused.

I love it! I have one every morning for Breakfast. It's filling and very satisfying (even with skim milk). Sometimes I even have it for dinner if I'm not very hungry (and lazy).

Not crazy about the way the way the Slim Fasts taste, so I basically use a glass of skim milk or a Carnation Instant Breakfast to get some Protein in.

Bravo to you for taking the plunge! You'll do great!!

Good luck! :clap2:

I know what you mean. I think its because the campains are so expensive to run that candidates with poor results in the first couple states just drop out rather than to continue to spend more money on what is beginning to appear to be a fruitless campain.

Personally, I kind of wish all the states would hold their votes all on the same day like they do for the final election. I also sometimes wish when it comes to the final election for the presidency that the news media weren't able to start predicting results for the elections before the polls were closed across the entire country. It's not really fair to states on the West Coast who haven't even got out to vote yet and the media is already "declaring" a winner.

Yeah, I don't think anything should be released till all states are in either, I think it sways people 'Well so and so isn't doing so well, I may as well vote for so and so'. But it's one state! Politics confuse me on a daily basis.

I was actually at a caucus last night. It was quite the experience. I'm glad my top two choices have won! I also am having a hard time liking Hillary. It will be interesting to see how the election goes from now on.

I'm happy for obama, although I'm not a dem. But i'm not too happy with the Rep. choice. I hope Romney makes it! If Huckabee makes it I may just go with Obama. Huckabee is ok on a lot of issues, but for some reason I'm not loving him. I have to do more research.
