Thank you so much for your posts!! Ooh, the greasy eggs! OUCH! I have switched over to egg beaters lately... and yes, the Pam works wonders!!! The bars, and most everything... ick, I do like the EAS Carb Advantage cookies and cream bars, they work in a pinch. I love protein and usually cannot get enough, but i like it in the pure forms!! LOVE BEEF! Those bars are okay, but I do like the real thing. I like their shakes too... but do them more for snacks than real meals. I wouldnt say I am a Marathon Runner... I am a wannabe! LOL! I do it for fun, not to win.... I am not disciplined enough to train like I would need to. Plus, I love my weekend cocktails.. LOL! The sugar alcohols have never bothered me... but I try to watch them. They usually don't knock me out of ketosis... but watch out for that nice laxative effect! LOL! It is nice to shake things up with variety every so often.... I am hoping I will get alot of fun ideas here! Thanks again for the welcome
