After my rock and roll first week I got all secure in my plan and made a major mistake last night! I was running around a lot yesterday with the kiddies and ended up not getting enough supplements in. I find the shakes very filling and even though I am keeping notes about when I eat when I arrived home I realized that in order to get 5 shakes in I would have to stay up until 10. Well, I ended up having 4 shakes during the day, conked out a bit after 8, and woke this morning feeling awful! I was all twitchy and shakey and dizzy and bleh! So, lesson learned. Today I am sticking close to home and getting in all my supplements! Next time, I am gonna make sure to put some packets in my car!

Hey Carbs....

I'm the same way most days......that 6th meal just sneaks up on me and I usually am downing a shake as I curl up to bed....or even worse, I'm already in bed when I start doing the math in my head and then have to get up and make a shake. It's hard to wrap my brain around the fact that it's ok to be "eating" this late at night, but they say it's better than missing a supplement, so I trust the experts....

I do know the feeling though as I have dozed off and forgotten my last supplement for the day....not fun the next morning...I agree!!

Glad to hear you have a new game plan!! Live and learn...that's all we can do!!

Nite...nite..... .....Wait......2,3,4,5, ???? Yep, I need another shake!!

Hey, if the bars are part of your plan you could easily stash some of those in your car, purse etc.... for an on-the-go grab. (Just not more than 1 a day!) If it's hot where you are make sure you make it a granola and not something chocolate based if it's gonna sit in your car as an emergency stash....

Can ya tell I learned that one from experience? it's not great to have to "lick" the chocolate divine bar off of the wrapper, (but I sure wouldn't have wasted it!! )

how many shakes do you have to consume a day?

[Nancy]

You may have 1-5 shakes a day. Most people have three shakes, 1 bar and 1 serving of oatmeal or 1 serving of soup plus the Lean and Green meal.
