There Was a Flaw In My Plan Ulog

in ulog •  6 years ago 

BAH. There was a flaw in my new protein shake plan. Apparently there is more sugar content in ice cream and milk than the amount I was adding for flavor when I mixed it in coffee and cocoa powder. I thought it might be a coincidence yesterday that I kept having low blood sugar headaches, but I made a second shake with the last of my coffee the old fashioned way before I went on my walk to the post office and I felt better. This morning I made another milkshake style one and already, the low blood sugar headache has begun. I just finished drinking it less than an hour ago. BAH, I SAY.

I could up the whey ratio if that doesn't taste weird, but that's already the most expensive part of the drink in a drink that is a lot more expensive already if I'm mixing it with ice cream. So I need a new formula.

My post office venture was because I am selling my things on ebay again, and since I restarted I have successfully sold two Magic: the gathering cards and one yukata (lightweight kimono). The yukata was yesterdays' mail. Hooray online garage sale! LOL

I did some dishes, which is always a win because I suck at doing dishes, and there's a load of laundry going right now. It's another putter around kind of morning. But you know, it's three AM. I like when I wake up in the wee hours of dark thirty, not only because it's quiet but because I feel like I can get all my puttering around type stuff done and if I need to go someplace then I can do it once I've been awake a while and am more likely to be put together and functional, rather than rushing around when I first wake up. Then if I'm exhausted after going out (which is common), I can rest rather than feel like I still have a bunch of chores to do.

Here is a meme that made me crack up the other day

I hope the money from MTurk (a whole $6, I don't make lots doing that yet) deposits today so I can go buy more coffee. This is the poverty juggle. A few bucks here, a few bucks there, trying to stay on top of staples as you can afford them. Luckily a jar of instant at Trader Joe's is $4, so once it's in the bank that's doable. Maybe I'll go to a LFL too since I have had a bag of books waiting for ages and no energy to take them. Maybe I'll even remember to post my actifit steps, and leave the phone in my pocket enough so that I crest the 5000 mark! :D #goals

linguistics humor. If you're confused, the Þ is a real letter that used to be part of the English alphabet called thorn, and it made a th sound. It fell out of common use centuries ago

So not a whole lot of exciting news here, which is fine, I'm tired and low key. LOL. How are y'all? Why is my feed so quiet? Talk to me! I'm over here blogging about protein shakes and ebay sales, you can blog, too. ;)

Good morning Phe! I wish i had a good protein shake recipe for you. I had gestational diabetes with the kids and that low blood sugar crash headache is no joke. I remember it well. I used to just get the store bought drinks though so i'm no help. Lol.
Hope you find a combo that works with no allergies soon!
I have so many ideas for blogs, but no time to type them out! Maybe today.. 🤷‍♀️🤣

What, you mean you don't have eight hands to wrangle the kids and type blogs at the same time?? ;)
I used to buy premix powders, but I'm allergic to them all now. Ha haaaa. XD

Hehe, nope. But come to think of it, having 8 hands would be really helpful. 🤣
