BuffyBear's Journal, 22 Jan 13

I've come to the conclusion that protein shakes are counterproductive. I've been trying to eat more natural foods, yet when I make these shakes I've been adding artificial sweeteners and/or flavorings. Plus, they taste so good that I've been using them as a dessert rather than a meal replacement!

On a different topic, I promised one of my Buddies that I would reassess my goals today. After all there is something wrong that after 2 years I still have 23 pounds left to lose. So something has got to change!

This week I'm going to work my butt off to lose 2 pounds. This will put me at 154 for the start of my next Challenge (Lose 7 lbs in Feb).

The next mini goal will be 150 by Valentines Day.

I'll review my progress again March 1st, to see how much weight I'll need to lose in order to celebrate St. Patricks Day in my size 10 jeans.

I find I need to stick to the premade shakes - I like the EAS low carb ones best but will use the Atkins. Carb Solutions is pretty good for a powder - can order from drugstore.com and make with Almond Milk (unsweetened). I hate to eat in the AM so a shake helps. But you are right, you need to find what works for YOU and lets the pounds keep coming down. You've lost before so you'll lose the last of it.

Brilliant, Buffy. You are doing so well. I want to be you when I grow up. You're amazing.
