Good Morning!!

Does anybody else thinks that the Knudsens Morning Blend is way sweeter then the COD's juice? I find it so sweet, that it's hard for me to drink it without thinking of all that sugar I'm pouring into my body...

Anyways, I'm trying to do the Slim Down Challenge, I'm just a day behind.... But I did stock my freezer with Slim Fast, forgot to buy the LF Cheese sticks. Would it be ok to use DS's cheese sticks? They are higher in calories, I think...

Wishing you'all a very good day!

Nancy - Not only extra calories in regular cheese sticks, but fat too. The cheese stick is to compensate for the 50 calorie difference between LA Slimdowns and SlimFast Optima, so if you have to, you could have half of DS's cheese stick.

Ok I know I just missed it somewhere, but what is Almond Breeze? Oh I'm in for the challenge too! I need to try TO with the oranges, I think I do better when I can chew my calories as opposed to just drinking them!

Ok disregard the question about the Almond Breeze, did a search and answered my own question :-)

Are we all surviving day 2 of TO?????

Well, day 2 is here, and I am a moron...lol. I think I would have a tough time shoveling the driveway at the best of times, but I think during TO was a little ambitious. I am soooo weak right now. I'm sure once I have lunch in another hour or 2, I will be fine, but what a dumb move, but the snow was really heavy in our driveway....
Hope day 2 treats you all well!!:)

Kim - Thanks for the pointer about DS cheese. I think you are very much correct. I may skip it altogether, though the protein in the SlimFast is considerately lower then the COD's SlimDowns.

Nicole - Glad to see you here. I was thinking about you when the news this morning was talking about the ice in Missori, and St Louis in general... Hope you and yours are safe and warm.

Day 2 is okay so far. I sure am ready to eat tomorrow, though!

I am doing ok. I cant wait to eat tomorrow though LOL

HOW LONG TILL TOMORROW!!!

I am okay actually, just got in from teaching and had my Lite and cantelope this morning and headed for some chicken and broccoli now, then shrimp and zucchini for dinner when girls go to bed.
I am SO excited about tomorrow.. I may set my alarm earlier just to get up and eat LOL! 4:00am sounds good.
I would LOVE to have salad but no salad spritzers for us here in the north.
Kim I'm going to send you a money order for a care package.. throw in some tortillas, Mint and Snickers Lites, and some spritzers and ICBINB for me.!
Just think gang.. we are 3/4 of the way done.. I have to say it was SO much easier for me to do it this time knowing how many were on board.. thank goodness we have two weeks off before round 2 of TO so let's enjoy every healthy, OP bite of it!

Hey ladies! So far so good-I actually decided to do a 3 day FF instead of TO since I don't do bars. It's much easier on me-and I don't notice a difference in the amount of weight I lose than when I used to do TO.

So-I hate lemon water-do you think it still works if it's in chamomille tea? It's the only way I can get it down without being miserable.

I think it is easier this time also b/c we have so many people doing it with us!

JM.......I was just thinking this morning.......I wonder what would happen if I did a 3 day FF? Now that is just plain creepy. I am not going to do it at this time, but I did wonder what the results would be.

Nicole - You get "creepy" a lot! :)

JM and Nicole - I was thinking this morning that TO was going well and maybe.... just maybe I could do it for 3 days. I don't think I will though, because I've got the week planned out, and I would worry that halfway through Day 3 I would crack like Humpty.
