I’ve been the Smoothie Queen this week, thanks to my Vitamix! I can’t seem to get the right proportion of ice & water in my smoothie though! On my first attempt, I used the proper amount of each ingredient, but didn’t follow the tedious assembly of ingredients. Case in point:
Pour cold water into the blender. Then add Right powder and blend on medium speed for 15 seconds. Add coffee and half the cinnamon; blend for 30 more seconds. Add ice cubes and blend on high speed until smooth, about 30 more seconds.
Cinnamon, coffee & one AMAZING blender!
You would think that since I own the most amazing blender in the world that I should be able to add all of the ingredients, turn the Vitamix to smoothies setting & walk away, right? Not so. The smoothies were too runny, lacking in the “smooth” category.
So I made another smoothie, but this time I followed the instructions explicitly, including the specified amount of each ingredient:
12 oz. cold water
1 scoop Vanilla protein powder (subbed for vanilla right light; per BFL instructions, I could substitute my protein powder of choice for Right light)
2 t. instant coffee
1/4 t. cinnamon, divided
6 ice cubes
Unfortunately, this produced the same effect: a water-y smoothie. Not good.
So, I began to experiment with different concentrations of ice & water until I achieved the desired effect.
I finally achieved the proper consistency of smoothie for the Cappuccino Strength, but then I realized that it was the taste that I didn’t care for. I love the idea of a cappuccino smoothie, though. Without all of the calories packed into the Starbucks variety.

I’ve also made Frosted Key Lime Pie, my favorite smoothie so far! I have a lot of experience using Limeade in margaritas, so this was a delicious familiar flavor! I have tried several versions of this recipe, but when I used the measurements indicated by the recipe, the smoothie was very watery and appeared to separate out in to 2 separate layers.
Smoothie is separating out into 2 layers
To achieve the consistency of smoothie I prefer, I used:
4 oz. of cold water
1 scoop of Vanilla protein powder
3 T. of frozen limeade
18 ice cubes
Add ice & water to make a smoothie
I threw everything in the Vitamix and walked away. I was able to achieve a similar ice-y consistency with the original smoothie, but it had to be frozen and then slightly dethawed prior to serving in order to get the right consistency. It is much quicker to just do it right the first time!

I made Chocolate Peanut Butter Blend as my post-workout recovery shake yesterday. After multiple failed attempts with too much water and too little ice, I began with an equal amount of water & ice. (I elected for more water in this smoothie than in the Frosted Key Lime Pie due to the viscosity of the peanut butter!)
8 oz. cold water
1 scoop chocolate protein powder (I used Myofusion Chocolate)
1 T. natural peanut butter
12 ice cubes
I added all of the ingredients at once & mixed. I will definitely make this delicious smoothie again! Though, I still need to manipulate the amount of each ingredient & assembly before I would call it the perfect smoothie!
Delicious chocolate smoothie!

I made Blackberry Smoothie before I came to work today. I used the ingredients indicated by the BFL book, because I knew that I would have to put this one in the freezer until it was time for me to eat it!
12 oz. cold water
1 scoop Vanilla protein powder
2 T. frozen orange juice concentrate (I had to use frozen apple juice concentrate, because I didn’t have any OJ concentrate in my house & I alreaady had my heart set on it!)
10 frozen blackberries (I bought fresh berries & put them in the freezer yesterday. Why frozen?)
3 ice cubes
I prepared the smoothie according to the BFL directions:
Pour cold water in blender. Then add Right powder & blend on medium speed for 15 seconds. Add frozen (juice) concentrate and blackberries; blend 30 more seconds. Add ice cubes & blend on high speed until smooth, about 30 more seconds.
Note: please stop the blender before you drop the ice cubes into the masher hole at the top of the Vitamix. That didn’t work out too well for me.

Then as I was scrolling down the page, I came across this “tasteful tip”:
To make your nutrition shakes and smoothies thicker and creamier, add less water. To make them thinner, add a few ounces more water. Simple!
So apparently, I wasn’t the first one to think of this. I wish they’d have put this on p. 314, the first smoothie recipe, rather than embedded all the way at the bottom of the recipe on p.321, ’cause this is the first that I’m hearing of it.
So, add more Ice, Ice baby! (I just couldn’t resist!!!)
Remember: food is fuel

in Oatmeal: It's what's for breakfast Tags: body for life, body for life diet, bodybuilding diet, chocolate oatmeal, clean eating diet, competition diet, jay robb protein powder, myofusion, myofusion chocolate, myofusion chocolate protein powder, oatmeal, peanut butter, protein pancake, protein powder, whole-grain oats
Day 3 of My Eating for Life Project & I decided to try chocolate oatmeal for breakfast. Oatmeal & protein powder are a combination that I have tried on multiple occasions, to my disgust. I have heard people rave about how much they LOVE protein powder in their oatmeal, but I’m just not buying it. It SUCKS every time I try it. (My mom would scold me for making this impolite statement, but there is no other word for it. Other than abhor. I abhor it… Hmmm, it just doesn’t have the same effect. SUCKS!)
I thought perhaps it was the type of protein powder I was using that made the combination so unpalatable. I’ve used Myofusion chocolate protein powder & Jay Robb protein powder so far. The Jay Robb was slightly less disgusting mixed in the oatmeal, but Jay Robb protein powder is much less chocolate-y than Myofusion. The chocolate flavor masked some of the disgusting-ness of it. If you have any suggestions for a combination you do enjoy, please send them my way! I’ll try anything twice. And all of these people who enjoy oatmeal & protein powder together can NOT be wrong!
So, here goes nothing: Chocolate oatmeal by BFL.
1/3 c. uncooked whole grain oats (non-instant)
1/2 c. water
1 scoop chocolate protein powder (soy or whey protein)
1 T. natural peanut butter
I always weigh & measure my food, especially peanut butter, because this little tablespoon has 95 calories!
sugar substitute to taste
1/2 c. skim milk
In a bowl, combine the oats, water and protein powder. Microwave on high for 2 minutes or until oats are cooked.
Microwaved oats & protein powder
Stir in the peanut butter & add sugar substitute to taste. Pour milk over the top.
It looks a bit more palatable with milk stirred in.
Serve & enjoy!
I can really taste the peanut butter in this!
The peanut butter is the ONLY part that is making this dish even remotely palatable. I can’t get over the spongy texture of cooked oats & protein powder… I’m really struggling to get through this dish. I alluded to the horrible texture the first time I made protein pancakes. It’s almost that bad!
Just remember: food is fuel.
Going...
Food is fuel.
going...
Food is fuel.
GONE!!!
That’s it! I couldn’t take it any more. Oatmeal & protein powder SUCKS! I think that bears repeating. So far all of you converts, those who love the oatmeal/ protein powder combination, tell me your secret. I am clearly doing something wrong!
Serving size: 1 bowl that seemed incredibly enormous as I’m trying to suffer through it (wishing oatmeal were even more calorically dense.)

The nutritional content will vary depending on what kind of protein powder you use. I’ll try it again, but this time I’m using a different protein powder. Jay Robb didn’t seem to work for this recipe!
It was almost TOO easy

Our wonderful friend FELIX came by yesterday to help with some home renos. Mr. Pancake has been promising me tile in the entryway for close to 6 years now. I’ve been patiently waiting, with occasional gentle reminders. Oh, and the bathroom floor could use some work as well, it appears:
It's only been like this for 6 years.
I am so excited I could jump up & down! We’re putting the most beautiful travertine in the entry & the master bath. It will match my beautiful backsplash in the kitchen, which Mr. Pancake actually installed himself. He sometimes takes a while to get around to things, but when he does them, he does it VERY well!
Mr. Pancake does tile too!
Felix is NOT on a competition diet. Mr. Pancake offered them a cool beverage while they were here, which also happened to be the same time I was supposed to eat again. So, as our friends visited with us, I whipped up a little snack from the BFL cookbook. It was almost TOO easy. I was shocked that my guests didn’t want to partake of the feast, but I suppose beer & cottage cheese don’t go well together. This wasn’t like cooking at all, but I got through another recipe in the BFL book!
Cottage Apple
1/2 c. cottage cheese sprinkled with cinnamon & stevia to taste. Serve with one portion size apple. Healthy, easy midafternoon snack!

I just wrote in this post about wishing that I had a homemade barbeque sauce recipe. Then today, as I was looking for a dinner to make from the Eating for Life cookbook, I came across this:
I hadn’t seen the barbeque sauce recipe hidden in the recipe for Tangy BBQ Chicken. I made a double recipe of this, thinking that if the sauce were good enough, I could use it to make Clean Sloppy Sandwiches again very soon! This is a complete meal, with brown rice, chicken & homemade sauce. Mr. Pancake had these for dinner tonight & he immediately sent me this exclamation:
Wow!!! The chicken was fantastic!!!
(with 3 exclamation points for each affirmation. That’s a whole lot of exclaiming for Mr. Pancake! He doesn’t get excited about much.)
I made enough chicken breasts to use the remainder for chicken tomorrow night. The double recipe was enough for 2 meals for myself & enough food for Mr. Pancake and 2 persnickity midgets. Or one recipe would be enough to serve the teenager once.
!!!
Doesn’t this look delicious? It heated up well, too. This recipe was more labor intensive than any of the others I’ve made yet (3 pots & 40 minutes), but it was still very easy. So, make a double recipe & enjoy!
BFL Brown Rice
1/2 c. uncooked brown rice
1/2 red bell pepper, diced
1 T. chives, sliced
Prepare brown rice according to package directions. While the rice is cooking, start cooking the chicken. When your chicken is finished, the rice should be just finished steaming. Stir the diced bell pepper & chives into the cooked rice & eat!
Tangy BBQ Chicken
3 t. olive oil, divided
2 portions of chicken breast
1/2 onion, diced
1 c. tomato juice
1/3 c. vinegar
hot pepper sauce, to taste
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 t. ground black pepper
1 t. Worcestershire sauce
Heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add chicken breasts, cover & cook the chicken for 6 minutes, turn over & cook approximately 6 more minutes until no longer pink in the center.
While the chicken is cooking, you’ll make the tangy BBQ sauce: heat the remaining olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and saute for about 4 minutes until golden brown. (It’s probably time to turn over the chicken breasts now.) Add tomato juice, vinegar, hot pepper sauce, garlic, black pepper and Worcestershire sauce; stir well. Simmer sauce over low heat for 10 minutes. (While the sauce is simmering, your chicken breasts will be finished. Remove those to a plate and start to cook your second serving of chicken for tomorrow night.) When the chicken is done, add it to the sauce & simmer for 3 more minutes. (Now the rice will be finished. Stir in your bell pepper & chives and call the troops to dinner.)
Chicken breasts, BBQ chicken & brown rice
While the BBQ sauce is not the proper consistency to use in place of traditional barbeque sauce, it was delicious nonetheless! I made a mess in the kitchen with this though. Nobody ever said clean eating keeps your kitchen clean!
Too good to be true

Body for Life suggests you should eat 6 meals a day, including dessert. Dessert? What? That doesn’t sound like clean eating to me, you say. Well, my friend, it’s true. You can have bananas foster on your clean eating diet. Are you pinching yourself? Does it sound TOO GOOD to be true? Well feast your eyes on this deliciousness!
Bananas foster that's GOOD for you!
This bananas foster is incredibly delicious & I was shocked at how simple it was to make! Oh, and as for The BFL/ my body cooking project: 3 recipes in the first day. I might make it through this cookbook after all!
Bananas, Foster Style
1 banana, sliced (100 gm)
2 T. sugar-free maple syrup (Cary’s, of course)
1/2 c. fat-free cottage cheese
Who knew that these could cook up into a delicious dessert?
Lightly coat a non-stick skillet with butter-flavored cooking spray. (I used I can’t believe it’s not butter… 3 squirts.) Place over medium heat. Add sliced bananas & fry for about 1 minute. Add maple syrup to the skillet & gently coat the banana slices; continue to cook for another minute. Heat the cottage cheese in the microwave for about 20-30 seconds. Top the cottage cheese with your maple-glazed banana slices & enjoy bananas foster without the fire or the guilt!
Serving size: just 1! It’s all for you!

Clean sloppy sandwiches

Move over, Manwich! I made my own sloppy joes for dinner last night from the BFL cookbook. They were de-lic-ious! The teenager even ate them! He scoffed that I was serving them on whole wheat mini-buns. (“Moooommm, why do we have to eat heal-thy?” he asked with a nasally snare.) But then he came back for seconds. The chili powder & Tabasco sauce did not make them spicy at all, but gave them just the right amount of deliciousness! The recipe says it makes 4 burgers, but we got 5 out of them, plus another sandwich for my lunch today.
BFL Clean Sloppy Joes
1.2 pounds lean ground turkey (I used Jennie-O’s 97% fat-free)
1/4 t. ground black pepper
1/2 red onion, chopped
1 can (8 oz.) no salt added tomato sauce
1/2 c. ketchup (use sugar-free if you can find it!)
1/4 c. bar-b-q sauce (I used Organics True Texas Barbeque Sauce because it was the lowest sugar I could find, but I’d like something sugar-free. Any suggestions? Maybe I’ll try making my own one day!)
1 t. chili powder
Dash of hot pepper sauce
In a large skillet, combine the ground turkey, black pepper & chopped onion. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally until no longer pink. Now get the midgets involved. One can open the can, and the other can measure. Let the midgets add tomato sauce, ketchup, bbq sauce, chili powder. Add the dash of Tabasco sauce for flavor after the teenager has left the kitchen, because he’s already complaining that you put in chili powder. (“You’d better not make it too hot,” he whines.)
That's a clean burger!
I served my sloppy joes on whole wheat mini buns with lettuce, tomato, pickles & spicy brown mustard. Delicious!

Okay, cooking my way through the Body for Life cookbook! Just in case you’re wondering:
Eating for lifestyle is a style of eating in which healthy, nutritious, delicious foods are enjoyed six times a day. Meals include breakfast, lunch, dinner, dessert, as well as a morning midmeal and an afternoon midmeal. Each meal is made up of a portion of protein and carbohydrates and regularly includes fresh fruits and vegetables.
My second meal of the day, when I wake up at 2 in the afternoon: would that be considered morning midmeal or afternoon midmeal? Regardless, I decided to make a smoothie! 2 meals, 2 recipes! Wow, I might make it through this cookbook before July 8th after all! I omitted the protein powder and made the same shake for the midgets in my house. One was made with vanilla pudding, the other with chocolate pudding. The chocolate pudding smoothie was consumed in its entirety, while the vanilla smoothie was not. However, I think this is more a reflection of the finicky eater, rather than a reflection of the quality of the smoothie. Plus, it was another opportunity to use the coolest blender in the world, so I was really happy!
BFL Vanilla Malt
1 c. cold skim milk (I used 3/4 c. of 1% milk, because that’s all that was left in my house)
1 scoop vanilla protein powder
2 T. malted milk powder (I used 1 T. in mine)
1 T. fat-free, sugar-free vanilla instant pudding mix
6-8 ice cubes
Place skim milk & protein powder in blender & blend on medium speed for 15 seconds. Add malted milk and blend 15 more seconds. Add pudding mix & blend for about 30 seconds. Add ice cubes and blend on high speed until smooth, about 30 more seconds. Enjoy your midmorning snack, while you’re watching the pounds melt away!

I checked out the Eating for Life cookbook from my local library. (I finally had the courage to return the book that was due this time LAST year!) As with any cookbook, it got splashed as I was cooking- with egg whites & cottage cheese. The corner pages of the index are all sticking together now. I think this is the usual fate of any cookbook, but prior to it being in my possession, the book was so pristine- as if no one had ever cooked from it. I’m not sure now how I’m going to break the news to the librarian that I have destroyed one of the books they allowed me to borrow. I have 10 more days until the book is due & I will have to cross that bridge. Or perhaps they’d consider indefinite renewal? Probably not for me. I think my library privileges have been restricted.
I thought I’d explore some of the different diet & lifestyle books on the market. Body for Life was my first choice, because it was the ONLY ONE available at my library. I contemplated cooking my way through the Body for Life Cookbook, a la The Julie/Julia Project. However, there are 150 recipes in this cookbook, and the book is due on July 8. IF I cooked 6 recipes a day, it would take me 25 days to finish this book. I know myself. I’d be lucky to get through 1 recipe a day, and I don’t think the library will allow me to renew the book for the next 5 months. Or maybe they would. But I have already desecrated the book with 1 day of cooking. The book would be annihilated before I got through all of the recipes.
So today, I started with BFL Golden Protein Pancakes. Imagine my delight when as I was skimming through the recipes, I came upon one that is so near & dear to my heart! Of course, they didn’t call them protein pancakes. Just golden. But I’d prefer to call them golden rays of sunshine welcoming me in the morning, er, afternoon as I rise crawl out of bed.
I’ve now had a 20% increase in my weight since my last bikini competition. This morning as I ran, the swelling in my ankles was so profound that at one point, I couldn’t feel my feet. I was contemplating pulmonary emboli & other assorted blood clots that could potentially be plaguing me. My blood pressure and resting heart rate are higher than 3 weeks ago. I feel as if my lungs are “wet”, particularly evident with any physical activity. I have dyspnea on exertion. Last night, I almost scoffed at some of the patients who came in, because I fancied that I was much sicker than they were. However, it’s all self-imposed. I look & feel the way that I do because of the poor food choices that I have made: high sugar, high sodium diet; eating late in the day; fried foods; processed foods; alcohol. It sounds like Diet for Death. Which is precisely what it is.
So, I’ve started the day off right- with a delicious breakfast! This recipe made 8 pancakes, so I will have protein pancakes for a couple of days. The kids love them, too, so they may not last very long! It took about 3 minutes to mix these up in the Vitamix, but about 15 minutes to cook them all. They will keep in the refrigerator so tomorrow, BFL Golden Protein pancakes will be ready in 1 minute flat! Enjoy!
BFL Golden Pancakes
1 c. uncooked whole-grain oats (not instant)
6 egg whites
1 c. fat-free cottage cheese
1/4 t. vanilla extract
1/4 t. ground cinnamon
2 packets sugar substitute (I used Stevia)
In a blender (or Vitamix), combine all ingredients. Don’t plop your cottage cheese into the Vitamix, or it will splash egg whites, oats and cottage cheese back onto the kitchen counter, cookbook & yourself. Then blend on medium speed for about 1 minute, or until the batter is smooth. Pour batter, 1/4c. at a time, onto a hot greased non-stick skillet on medium heat. Cook the pancake for about 3 minutes, or until it is bubbly on top. Flip and cook 2 minutes on the other side, or until golden brown. Serve with sugar-free maple syrup and fresh berries.
Bubbly pancakes, now flip!!

I rushed out of the house this morning so I could get my car up to the dealership to be fixed. Such an annoyance, for many reasons. 1) I don’t wake up in the morning. And the dealership won’t fix my brakes at night or on the weekends. What, do they think they’re bankers or something? 2) I have to cross 3 counties to get to the dealership. I almost felt compelled to take a day of vacation to get here. I DID kiss my family good-bye and double checked my beneficiaries for my life insurance policy. For good measure. 3) I had to leave really early just to get to the dealership and now I have to wait several hours while they fix my car. So I grabbed breakfast on the fly this morning… rushed out the door just to come here & wait.
On one hand, though, they have free coffee & internet at the dealership! I feel like I’m at Starbucks! Only, it’s quite a bit more expensive. But there are no kids at the dealership; least of all mine. There is a movie room, though, where they’re showing cartoons. I came in here with my Starbucks coffee & I’m going to watch cartoons sans interruption from anyone’s children! This almost feels like a vacation! I’m going to pretend that I went to one of those expensive organic smoothie shops for my breakfast before driving up here to spend the day relaxing. Maybe I’ll pretend it was a self-service smoothie shop. They had a really nice Vitamix blender & organic fruit! Yummy blueberry bliss for breakfast on the fly!
Blueberry Bliss with a protein boost
1/2 c. organic blueberries
1 organic banana
sprinkle cinnamon (organic of course)
1 cup ice
1 scoop Vanilla Whey Protein Powder
Pour all of your ingredients into the Vitamix. Set it to smoothies, press start & go get dressed! You’re in a hurry, remember? When you return, your smoothie will be done & you will have a delicious, refreshing breakfast to go! Faster than a pop-tart & way better for you!
Nutritional information… didn’t do it, because I knew it was healthier than any of the fast food alternatives, plus I ate my breakfast on the fly, so I didn’t have time to calculate it. Low-fat with a near equal amount of carbohydrates & protein though; you can’t go wrong!
What you have to say about it.
