Well, I guess I should admit to being a Starbucks Addict... I used to get my favorite Mocha Frappachino at least once a week... Well, They are yummy and extremely band friendly but at 270-470 calories, not very weight loss friendly. I drink Atkins Advantage Mocha Latte protein shakes to fill the void. They are only 160 calories, 15 grams of protein, and 2 of dietary fiber... at 5 carbs and 1 gram of sugar, they are much better for me than Starbucks 42-77 carbs a pop...and 40-73 grams of sugar. Anyway, as most of you know, I don't drink anything with more than 5 calories unless it's a protein shake and those have 110 unless they are my yummy Mocha Latte for a splurge of 160. I prefer to eat my calories... Have you ever savored a Protein Shake? I have... This is my story for today. What have you replaced with a weight loss friendly option?
OMG... My phone puts huge photos on my blog... I better not take one of my Ass...
ReplyDeleteI agree that these shakes are awesome. The Dark Chocolate Royale is really good too.
ReplyDeleteI got a recipe for faux reeses peanut butter cups! they are so good!
ReplyDeleteI'm laughing at your phone/ass comment, Maria!
ReplyDeleteI can't think of a single thing I've replaced with a weight-loss friendly option. I would go for the high-calorie option (very infrequently) and skip lunch to cope with the extra calories.
I had an Atkins strawberry shake for breakfast...yuck! It reminded me of barium. BUT it did keep me full for over 3 hours. I may need to try the chocolate flavors. I remember liking them, and you can't beat the convenience of grabbing one on the way out the door in the morning.
ReplyDeleteI spewed coffee at my computer just now reading your comment! So funny! I savor my click protein shake in the afternoon. Makes me happy :) I haven't seen the mocha latte, going to look for it!
ReplyDeletefirst of all...LMAO at your comment on your own blog!!
ReplyDelete#2 those are the only atkins shakes i have tried! yummmyyyy oh i just remembered tried the caramel delight ones, eh so so.
LOL!!! @ your comment! You are hilarious!
ReplyDeleteAnywhoozit, I think the only protein shake I've ever savored was the sample of Click we got at BOOBS last year. I still haven't ordered any -- not sure what is up with that!
Laughing at the *ass* comment!!! I have just rediscovered apples. They are sweet and crunchy...I have not tried any protien shakes, so maybe now is the time! :)
