Today I needed some more protein powder, as I have some in a smoothie almost every morning. To my delight, my local grocery store had this on sale!: http://www.naturesbounty.com/PRODUCT/050874 Nature's Bounty Optimal Solutions Complete Protein and Vitamin Shake Mix. They were 2 for the price of one! I've been wanting to try it, but I can get this one other protein powder, twice the amount, for a dollar less. However, with it being 2 for the price of one, I was able to get my usual amount for about the same price. Not only is it a protein powder, but it has vitamins, probiotics, flaxseed, and collagen in it! Lots of NBE-friendly goodies! I got a chocolate and a vanilla. So excited!
I have a confession to make. I decided I was going to let myself have sugar this weekend, because my dad got some chocolate with me in mind, and then the next day he got me a brownie sundae. But while I was eating the chocolate, I kept thinking 'What's the point of this?' It just wasn't satisfying, and I kept thinking about how it had no nutritional value and therefore served no actual purpose for my body. Then, the next day, I got halfway through the sundae and told my dad to eat the rest because it just didn't even taste that good to me. I think I'm over sugar. When I have it, I keep thinking about how bad it is for my skin and how it's keeping my testosterone levels high. Plus it's not even that tasty! Give me a savory meal over a sugary treat any day. Never thought I'd say that. NBE is getting me over my sugar addiction. Yay!
