he he. The shakes don't seem to fill me up for as long as food, they're good for a smallish meal or big snack though. Or if I'm not getting enough protein in the meal I want to eat. I've only tried vanilla. I was eyeing cookies n cream but I'm afraid that night trigger an ice cream craving.
So ANYway my life has sucked this past week, sick as a DOG. Throat hurt bad, took lots 'o drugs to get past it and lost a day sleeping. I felt better, took the kid to the mall and the park, that was a BIG mistake, I wasn't over it yet. The next day was horrible. Chest pain, throat hurt, congestion everywhere from the waist up, runny nose, coughing. Tried to drug myself into sleeping all day again. At one point I actually started on the leftover oxycontins it hurt so bad. I was coughing before, but the REAL coughing set in last night. I managed to get to sleep for an hour, at 6 a.m., by combining nyquil with an advil PM. Then the kid woke me up. Got back for another hour. Then the coughing set in again. Christ.
I'm giving it a few more days before I attempt working out again. I don't want a relapse of that. I always get a spring cold with coughing that keeps me up, but holy shit that was bad. I'll probably have to drop some weight so as not to strain it too much at first.
