Skinny Cow

I just have to share that I have found an awesome treat.  The Chocolate Truffle ice cream bar by Skinny Cow.

1 bar is just 100 calories.  It's actually a pretty large bar considering it is only 100 calories. The ice cream is surprisingly rich and not icy. There are only 12 grams of sugar.  That might be too much for some post WLS - but it is just within my safe zone.  And thank goodness! It has become a regular nightly treat for me. 

Upping my Protein

I am making a concerted effort to up my protein lately.  I have mentioned on here before that I am a huge fan of  The World According To Eggface blog.  She was an absolute lifesaver when I first had surgery and had no idea what to eat!  And she continues to live out a successful post WLS life enjoying life and food to the fullest.

I have learned that a key way to up my protein is to use protein powder in what I cook.  Eggface currently has a great giveaway going for a protein powder that I have not tried yet. So check out her blog and her current giveaway of Max Protein powder. http://tinyurl.com/a78ors.
