Thanks. It's been awhile. ;)

I am getting back to following ETL. My diary is open

I go to Fitness Connection as well. Mainly North Hills and Pleasant Valley.

I don't think we ever have :ohwell:

Work in Brier Creek - Live at Five Points (Raleigh)

I ordered the 210 on Amazon. I'll give it a try. (I can always return it if I don't like it) -- No tri planned as I can not swim :) -- I hope to work on that but it will still be a while before I sign up for a tri

Lots to think think about thanks for all the comments (keep them coming). I will let you know what I end up buying.

I would be interested in doing either. I am in Raleigh too.

Thanks for the suggestions. I do normally do green smoothies. 'Consistency' referred to getting the greens juiced and getting any seeds completely pulverized. I will try using frozen fruit every time. kkoltcz - The Vitamix can get anything smooth. The time and the amount of liquid you will need depends on what you are…

Nuts, Seeds and Avocados!! They will definitely help you with calories and fat. The seeds and nuts will help with protein. Try looking for your favorite protein online (amazon). I love Vega protein powders! They are pricey but worth it in my opinion.

This is what happens when I plan to far in advance... I forgot all about it. I have to be in Cary @ 1pm. Don't think I can do both. Sorry Guys. I hope you are able to make it out there and meet each other.

Congrats! Thanks for sharing!

I read it - I likedit. I may not agree with it 100% but it's light-hearted and different than most other nutrition books out there. I follow Eat to Live so it's a lot less strict.

I agree with the nuts and avocado suggestion. Also add some beans to your diet.

I'll be at work. Sorry. Sounds fun though.

Sorry - I'm in North Raleigh. Hopefully you can get someone to chime in.

UPDATE -- Lisa and I emailed Saturday and she explained everything. If you have any questions, just let her know (She is now on MFP: applejacks9)

Man oh man... I was hoping that 'six pack' was referring to the six pack of abs I would get from eating these bars. :bigsmile: I have received a package in the last three weeks but obviously haven't checked out the serving size. :blushing: Thanks for explaining Lisa!

31prvrbs Ok...**SIX PACK NUTRITION SHACK EATERS** I just noticed that on my 3-pack of bars, the nutrition facts state that the container has 6 servings. If this is the case then the serving size is HALF a bar. ???? Is mine a misprint? It's my last package, so I haven't been paying attention, ROFL. Could explain why peeps…

Kiki ad Lucia: You ladies amaze me EVERYDAY. You have been blessed with the ability, power and gift to change THOUSANDS of lives. A special shot out to the ladies who organized this. I feel like such a dweeb (yes I said dweeb) for not thinking of this myself. I am very thankful for MFP and EM2WL --- who would have thought…

Congrats Ichel! You are doing great!!! Thanks for continuing to share your journey

Grew up in Dayton - College in Columbus - now in North Carolina

And she does vegan bars too. I just ordered 24 (Shipping was a flat rate so I figured I'd get my money's worth). $2.25 a bar

well put

I love that they sell it watered down for you and still charge the same price. Tropicana 50 = the most genius marketing plan (cause people are stupid) ***I know it's more than just watered down Tropicana but still...

Ditto (unless it's alcohol)

Sorry - I have never done it. However.... I would say 1.5 weeks seems pretty quick. Give it more time. Also if you are working out your abs twice a week, they are probably swollen so that might explain the measurements and would definitely expain the weight gain. When your muscles are sore you are retaining water and…

Garden of Life Raw and Vega are the ones I really enjoy. Vega is pricey so I buy it when it's on sale (45 instead of 65). I have never had Sun Warrior but I have heard good things about it. I also think you should buy the individual packets and try them out first to see what you like. It does matter how cheap it is if you…

Thanks for the tips! Esp on the gallon bags. I will bring extra in case others don't have them.
