Ah, too tight!

For the first time in what seems like FOREVER I made myself a protein shake for breakfast. I mixed the following up in my trusty ol' Magic Bullet:

  • 1 1/2 scoops of Designer Whey Chocolate Peanut Caramel protein powder
  • 1/2 cup light Silk chocolate milk
  • 1 teaspoon reduced fat peanut butter

The problem was...I couldn't keep it down. My Doc stays to use such a small amount of liquid to keep it thick, thus keeping you full, but it was too thick for me to pass.

I was sipping it on my way to work and had to pull over part way there because I was about to lose it. I gave it a little time and then starting sipping again...even slower and it was OK, but a little uncomfy.

I am always SO tight in the mornings. Do any of you have this problem?

I have returned.

I took a hiatus from blogging for a bit. Okay, it was more of an extended vacation, but I am back...I hope for the long haul, and I plan to stick with it.

I know that going at this weight loss thing on my own just doesn't work for me. I've been overwhelmed with work, school, and just life in general and I am barely keeping my head above water. I've realized that I need to have outside support and influences to keep my motivation going...at least for now.
I've recommitted myself to following my exercise/eating/supplement guidelines in hopes of seeing a better result. Now I've just GOT to stick to it. I might need some support...help me, won't you? ☺
