  • I don't know if they have this in New Zealand but I drink Fairlife 2% milk. It is 100% cows milk. It is not as sweet as regular milk though but much creamier. They remove all the bad things out and keep all the good. It also has double the protein than regular milk. Google it.
  • Atkin's has a protein shake that is very good. Has 15gr of protein and only 1 gr of sugar. I like the mocha Latte the best.
  • I ditto that!!!!!!!! Taste horrible, nothing like peanut butter whatsoever.
  • Avocado's have lots of fiber. 1/2 of a medium avocado has 5 grams of fiber. So good with a boiled egg on wheat toast in the mornings.
  • I would love to here someone's opinion on this because seems like the same thing happens to me. If I do more walking than normal I either don't lose or gain weight.
  • Shakes really are not that expensive compared to a meal. You can get them (Atkins Shakes) for $1.25 each at WalMart and even cheaper on sale.
  • I've been quit for 13 months. You are the first person that has talked about dreaming about smoking. I have those dreams too!! They are so real. I feel the burn at the back of my throat...taste the smoke.......wonderful. :smiley: Wish I could have one every night. :blush: I took Chantix to quit also. Wonder if that has…
  • :/ :/ Same thing happened to me. Had mine out about 5 years ago. The first year every morning as soon as I ate anything I had to run to the bathroom. On vacation was the worse!! I always had to make sure I went to the bathroom before I left the restuarant. My Hubby just got used to my routines. About a year later my Doctor…
  • Have you tried roasting them? They are absolutely wonderful. I cut them in half, toss in EVOO & salt. Put them cut side down on a baking sheet and roast for about 12 to 15 minutes (like you would a brussel sprout, which are also yummy). The cut side gets all carmalized, they are the perfect side dish to any meat.
  • Thanks to all of you for your input.
  • That is one of my problems. It is hard for me to eat at a deficit. I take blood pressure medication that increases my appetite. They work great at controling my BP and it took many changes to get the correct medication that is why I don't want to change my BP pills. I am 5'2 and 62 years old and am trying to eat at 1500…
  • Seems to be a lot of good reviews on the website you sent.
  • These are wonderful. I don't know how it does it but it gives meat a charred grilled taste. Just make sure you get it really hot before putting the meat on. Also make sure you turn your vent on because it will smoke just like a outdoor grill. Easy to clean. Just use a ball of aluminum foil to scrape across the top then…
  • How's everyone doing on their quit smoking quest? Going on week 6 without a cig so far. I quit taking the Chantix last Thursday, 4-17. I can't tell any different than when I was taking them. Still want one 2 or 3 times a day but only takes a couple of minutes of distraction and I forget about it.
  • Did you have any problems or side effects when you started taking the full dosage, two 1mg tablets per day? I had to cut mine back to only 1 a day. It was making me depressed and angry at everything. The total opposite of my personality.
  • Last Cigarette I had was a month ago yesterday. Using CHANTEX. They help tremendously. Weird, vivid dreams are the only side effects, if you want to call it a side effect. Some of them can be quite enjoyable!!:blushing:
