Tried protein powder for the first time today and I'm shocked? I'm usually hangry and counting down the minutes til dinnertime, but 200 calories at 3pm and now I'm sitting around at 7pm not really hungry for dinner yet. I'll eat, obviously, but this is an unforeseen weapon in the battle against snacking.

I used pure unflavored whey, no fancy flavors because sugar alcohols mess with my stomach. Mixed it up with some sweetened almond milk and 100% cocoa powder. Yum!

    Yeah this is definitely a thing. Protein shakes are surprisingly satisfying. They also make you really gassy, so have fun with that.

    Ha! I haven't hit that stage yet it seems. We'll see what the night brings, lol
