This is the journey of two women (and one of their moms) on the way to losing a combined total of 300lbs. We will talk about the good, the bad, the fatty, and everything in between. Sometimes there will be some bitching, and sometimes there will be some gushy ridiculousness, but it's all in an effort to keep us on the right track to being healthier and more confident women.

Hot guys and protein smoothies.

My job doesn't really afford me the opportunity to eat lunch.  I don't have a time that I get to sit down and have an entire meal in one sitting.  I have to take a couple of bites, then go on a delivery.  Suffice it to say, I was either not eating and drinking soda instead, or I was eating A LOT because by the time I got my second bite, the first one would be digested.  So, I solved my problem by coming up with these protein smoothies.  I can drink them in the car and they last me for at least 3 hours.  I have 1 around 1pm and 1 around 4pm and that gets me through the day.  It's great.  This is, of course, after eating breakfast.  But, it's a simple recipe. 

You'll notice some brand names in there.  I did that so you can know exactly what I use for these because it's not just any acai juice and it's not just any protein mix.  I chose these because of the extra vitamins and minerals that are in them.  I used to use Bolthouse Green Goodness, but there was stuff in there that wasn't agreeing with my system at all.  It's good if your guts can handle it, though.    

1 cup frozen sliced peaches.
1 cup frozen mango chunks
1 cup frozen pineapple chunks
1/2 cup Bolthouse 100% Carrot juice
1/2 cup Genesis Today Acai Berry Classic
2 cups apple juice
4 scoops Nature's Bounty Complete Vitamin Shake Mix.
 Throw in a blender until desired consistency.  
Approximately 315 calories per smoothie.  Makes 2  20oz smoothies.



Now, onto the hot guys.  I realized as I was getting ready to go to bed that I had promised a 2 guy hot guy post this weekend and it hadn't happened yet.  So, I reached into the jar of hotness yet again.  The names that came out were Matthew Broderick and Sean Connery.

I know why I think Connery is hot.  It's all about the accent.  And he's got a sexy swagger about him.  Even to this day, though he's 80 something years old and wears a toupee most of the time, I'd still do him.  He's just that sexy.  And I don't care what anybody says, Sean Connery was the BEST 007, hands down.

Matthew Broderick might not be hot in that traditional sense, but he is hot nonetheless.  In that adorably sexy way.  I had the biggest crush on Ferris Bueller when I was a kid.  I've seen that movie so many times I can quote most of it.  My favorite is "I quote John Lennon.  I don't believe in Beatles, I just believe in me.  He had a good point there.  But then, he was the Walrus.  I could be the Walrus, I'd still have to bum rides off of people."  But that's beside the point.  I have seen Matthew Broderick in many things.  I think he's the sexiest in Lady Hawk.  That movie is so amazing and he is very hot.  He's also very young.  And it adds to his hotness that he can sing and dance, which I have seen thanks to Nathan Lane saying "Hey, let's work together."  Because, you know, the whole doing voices together on The Lion King worked out for them so why not, right? 

So there you have it.  There are two things I've talked about in this post.  One of them is yummy, and the other is a smoothie you can exchange for lunch on the go. ;-) 

I apologize for the lack of pictures but I am exhausted and want to get to bed.  I'll definitely have pictures for the next Hot Guy post.  I promise.  Everybody needs a little eye candy every now and then.
