Newbie intro/request for recipe

[Guest guest]

Hi Everyone,

I just found 's podcast last Friday. I haven't listened to them all yet,

thought I would

do it more systematically. Friday I listened to number 13. Today I listened to

# 2 about

" away-from " motivation.

The six pounds I gained in the last couple weeks has convinced me I need to get

serious

about losing 18 pounds! For the last 4 years or so I have been 10 - 12 pounds

over

weight. Since I turned 40 I have dealt with weight issues as high as 30 pounds

over. I'm

now 53 years old.

Hopefully, I will heed what said about " away-from " and " toward "

motivation. It

would be just like me to lose the 6 pounds and stop at that.

In one of the podcasts, mentions a protein shake she makes for breakfast.

I don't

remember hearing any liquid ingredients mentioned. She said it has 3/4 banana,

some

peanutbutter and some oatbran. Is this all it needs?
