Like a Kid at Christmas (Isagenix is here!)

Around four o'clock this afternoon, I headed into the kitchen to prepare my snack (grapes and almonds) and the UPS guy showed up with my Isagenix!  Woohoo!  Needless to say, I ran to the door, tore open the box, and just had to have one of the IsaLean Pro shakes for snack instead!  Starting tomorrow the IsaLean Pro will be my post-workout meal and Shakeology will move to after dinner but I was just too excited to try it to wait until tomorrow.

So, here's the scoop on the shake (pun intended).

It has 290 calories, 35g protein, 23g carbs, and 6g of healthy fat.  It also has tons of vitamins including 150% of your daily B12 and 60% of Vitamin D and Folate.  Between this and Shakeology I may not need a multivitamin anymore!  I'll keep taking what I already have but may not buy more vitamins when I run out.  And it tastes really good for a protein shake.  While it certainly doesn't taste like a vanilla milkshake, it doesn't taste bad at all.  It wasn't gritty or weird tasting, which tends to be a tall order for protein shakes so I was pleased about that.  I think this will be perfect for after my workouts and I can't wait to share how it goes once I've had more time to see how it affects my body and my progress.

Also, I decided to sign up as an "associate" with the company to get a discount on the product.  The fee was about $25 a year and I can save about $40/month on my supply of shakes.  And now I even have my own nifty website where people can order the product if they want.  You can click here to check it out!  You can either click "buy now" to check out products or click "sign up and save" to, well, sign up and save money on your order (that's what I did!).  I'm pretty stoked about being able to save almost $500 a year on my protein shake!  I love a deal, that's for sure!

Anyway, it's time to start thinking about dinner.  I'm making grilled chicken with a soba noodle salad.  I want to get the salad cooked now so it'll have time to cool in the fridge before dinner.  And later, I'm getting a new computer!  Trading in my 6 year old Macbook Pro for a new iMac.  Can't wait!

Keep it healthy!
