Ok, so they just came in the mail. To sum up the nutrition facts : One 8-ounce cup of liquid egg whites supplies 26 grams of pure 100% bioavailable protein, with only 2 carbs., Zero Fat, Zero Cholesterol, and only 120 calories. Basically, 10 eggwhites. ( Each pump equals 1 ounce, my trainer feels I should only do 7 instead of 8. )

My plan is, perhaps replacing 3 of my meals daily, with this. Simply because it’s a hell of a lot easer, I can mix it with anything from skim milk,juice,you name it,it’s tasteless. Plus, since I purchased 2 of them, I can leave one at work.

My trainer’s concern latly, is from the beginning, i’ve been consuming too much protein. When i first started with him 7 months ago, he couldn’t believe I was 5′2 at 172. You would think I would need assistance walking through the door lol I know muscle weighs more than fat,but christ ! It was just strange,with a number like that, u would think that i would look "obesse". But if u look at my pix,that wasn’t the case. Anyways, we argued,then he threw a 10 pound wt on the men’s locker room’s scale…twice lol,kicked everyone out, then allowed me in. Once the scale proved my number, we tried to figure out what was it that i was eating etc that was causing this wt gain within the past yr ( for yrs i was 135). Then we both figured it out,since my diet was close to perfect ( 3-4 meals a day,compared to the 6 meals a day i eat now) it mainly had to do with the medication that I was on,Lexapro ( it’s for anxiety). From there on it took me 4 months to be leaned off it,finally the weight started falling off.

::kicks medication to the curb:::

Anyways, I’ve droped 10 pounds since. I’m curious now that if i replace 3 of my meals with the liquid egg whites, would I see faster results? Now i know " fast" Isn’t  the safest & key to long term results. But if I were going to take this on, wouldn’t this be the healthy way…it seems harmless considering it’s all natural. Suggestions? Sorry for the long blog   Happy holidays

Ok…this whole shake thing. I’m told not everyone has to. My nutritionist tells me she would like me to stay away from them,including the meal bars etc. if possible. She feels it’s easier for the body to digest if whatever i consume is "natural". So i stopped with whatever shake/meal bars i was taking. Though I did just purchase ( it’s always advertised in Oxygen Mag.) The EggWhite shakes,it’s a huge container that comes with a pump? I ordered it cuz it seems to be the most " natural" meal replacement I can find. Esp after work outs ( i usually makeself an eggwhites anyway). Plus, i weigh/prep my meals every sunday for the week. My goal is to drop 20 pounds by this summer. Any suggestions to this theory….? Am I making the right choice?  Thank you

 I’m new the " female body building" thing. AS much as i’m trying to read, i’m still not finding much info for beginners

i’ll have more questions soon,but to start… I can’t help but notice most of the female b.b’s on this site have implants. Is that because eventually, that is something that I might need to take into consideration down the road…even if I just so happen to be a 38 D ? Sorry for he graphics lol

I’ve never seen a site where there’s so much support and encouragement from strangers. It’s so comforting to know that there’s a " place" where everyone is striving / maintaining the same goal…perfection Muah!
