So I have been working on loosing that extra 5 pounds that slowly creeped up cause of my eating dunuts and ice cream.

I had figured if I just stopped sweets it would go but that didn't work and I had to get serious. I have been heavily replying on my superfood green drinks, you know like healthy smoothies to cut calories, add nutrition and generally make it all good.

What I have been doing is eating one meal mostly, which is dinner. And not being a pig about dinner either. Rest of the day it is shakes for my meals.

Usually I add the extra protein powder, I have been using extra Whey Protein. Yesterday I forgot and didn't put in enough of the Raw Meal either.

Ended up on the Grumpy thread for being extra crabby all afternoon! So today I really loaded up my smoothie and I wouldn't get extra hungry.

I have been using Silk Soy Milk but decided to try Almond Milk. So yesterday at the Supermarket I bought both and this morning tried the Almond Milk. I never got it as I was sure I wouldn't like it but I was wrong. I have the Vanilla flavor and really I pretty much just taste the vanilla. So the Almond milk is a hit.
