there are reasons that I don't let husband shop alone


First of all he spends $80+ dollars, forgets 1/2 of what is on the list and comes home with tons of garbage like Banana cream pie and donuts instead of the bananas or dry cat food that I actually sent him for. Then I get angry at myself because I can't stay out of the pie. Bad husband BAD! I only get more upset when in my truth in advertising mindset, I have to tell you about it and track it online with the resulting tweet for all of the world (okay just my followers)to see. Then I get more upset as I see just how over my recommended daily caloric allowance the aforementioned slice of pie put me for yesterday! Live and learn. I guess I will be shopping for the forgotten cat food and bananas myself after work today. Gurrr

Lean Dessert protein shake in Banana nut









I purchased this at GNC for $27.59, minus the 20% gold card discount, for 18 0ne scoop servings at 130 calories each. Each serving has 3 grams of fat (2gms saturated), 52mgs cholesterol, 7 grams carbohydrates, 1grm fiber, 3grms sugar, 20 grms protein, 320mgs calcium, 200mgs phosphorus, 40mgs magnesium, 100mg sodium, and 125mg potassium. It also contains ELG stimulators and Protein Utilization Enzymes. HUH? Well this shake isn't as creamy as I like but it is a very low calorie shake so I can forgive that but the total lack of nut flavor on the other hand, um not so much. I debated about buying this flavor verses the Banana cream pie flavor. Now call me a fool but I am probably going to go and buy that flavor in a few weeks just to see if it tastes identical to this one. I bet it does, if not, I won't have wasted my money and won't feel so foolish. I know it is silly but I just have to see if I am right and to be fair, this shake isn't bad, so having two jugs of it won't be too bad. I can always pass them off to husband. It just doesn't live up to its flavor name. It is even pretty mild in the banana flavor department but at least you KNOW there is some banana flavor in it. It didn't have the best satiety but again it is only 130 calories when wixed with water. It recommends 4-5 oz water for females (8-10oz and two scoops for males). They also recommend you drink 2-4 servings a day! yeah maybe if you are early post op but even then you probably should be looking for something with more protein bang per oz.

Yo Baby! Yogurt



A friend told me that her baby LOVED "Yo Baby
Yogurt" and said I should try giving it to Lilith. I was hesitant to do
so at first because I had read that you shouldn't give babies under one
year of age any milk due to allergies. I told her that and she let me
borrow a great book (I will review it soon) that says yogurt is a great
second meal (or lunch) for babies over 6 months. At Lilith's six month
appointment asked her physician about it as well as the nutritionist .
Both thought it was fine. So I bought the vanilla/ Banana pack and
offered it to Lilith. She ate the whole single serving container in two
minutes. She was pounding her arm on the high chair tray table because
I wasn't loading the spoon fast enough. To this day the Banana is still
her favorite, the mixed berry with cereal seems to be her least
favorite but she still eats it just not with the same enthusiasm as the
others. I had to do some shopping around to find some of the other
flavors but luckily our nearest King Soopers carries her favorite. I
read the ingredients (especially close after her initial reaction) to
see if there was any hidden sugar or ingredient that would make it more enticing to babies but couldn't find any. It's even organic! They have flavors with added DHA!They have coupons on their website and a store locator. (Updated; Lilith is now over 2 years old and has one of these yogurts every morning with breakfast since she was 6 months old! She loves all flavors and the Smoothies! Although it is hard to find some of the flavors in Alaska)
