Re: Perjeta - leap of faith

Another option is to make smoothies and use some of the body builders whey protein in them. Although I never used it, it is in my house because my husband does (it helps with his hypoglycemia). He only uses one scoop a day because you need to work up to 2 scoops. None the less, he puts it in milk and says its delicious. He uses "Body Fortress" brand in vanilla flavor. Blend some up with greek yogurt (has more protein than the regular kind) and frozen berries (any kind) and/or bananas. This can be a snack or part of breakfast.

Thinking about you all the time.
