Day 176

News Flash.....New lighter protein shake. Ok this Belly Fat Cure--BFC (the acronym sounds like KFC only healthier) has really got me cutting back. I think our government need to reads a book called Budget Fat Cure.

Anyway here is what I have come up with so that I get my "sweet" shake but not all the carbs and sugar.

Bill's Blueberry Chunky (its not a smoothy--the ice makes is clumpy)
1 Scoop of Protien powder
1/8 cup of Blueberrys
12 oz of Almond Breeze Unsweetened Vanilla
1/4 cup of 2% Trader Joe's Greek Yogurt
Handfull of ice

This tastes much better than just a scoop of powder and 12 oz of water. So if you lower your expectations then this will be absolutely awesome.

And only 215 calories. 4 grams of sugar and 1 carb. How perfect is that. And it fills me up. Its not as thick as my orginal (750 calorie) shake which I already cut down to 380 calories but it fits the need once you have the plain powder.

Think of it this way. Cardboad with salt is much better than just plain cardboard. LOL!

Of course once I reach the goal weight I will go back to the 380 calorie version. Or something close. I think I will stay with the 1/8 cup of Blueberrys but add more yogurt.
