  • I prefer the enlightened too, never seen chilly cow. The brownie cookie dough is my weakness lol

  • Thanks for the warm welcome! I'm on my fourth fast day now and the nerves seem to be getting a little better. I start my day with some dark chocolate collegan in my coffee (50 cal, 10 grams protein) then I'll have a protein bar for lunch and probably some riced cauliflower with shrimp and a little ghee for dinner o:)

I also monitor my protein and make sure I eat about 140 grams a day. Guess I just got used to losing fast and am being impatient lol
