My protein powder pudding recipe


I've been using protein powder since I was in high school, and nowadays I make protein powder pudding. I like to mix up a batch, put it in the fridge, and then scoop out a serving as needed.

I use three scoops of protein powder, a family-size packet of sugar-free pudding, a packet of dry milk, two cups of cold water, and mix it all together then put it in a bowl with a lid.

And that's it.

Avoiding heartburn, and digestive problems during weight loss

Image
I just woke up a little while ago, have fed the dogs, and as usual early in the morning I don't have much of an appetite, but I did have a breakfast biscuit and am drinking plenty of water, including 16 ounces of decaf coffee. My goal nowadays is weight loss, but my goal always is to not make myself feel miserable. A couple of years ago I started feeling some heartburn (I'm not as young as I used to be!) and a good friend of mine recommended some over-the-counter meds that have been helping me to sleep (which was when my heartburn was at its worst, lying down). During the day I haven't been troubled much, until this past month when I started dieting. To my suprise, simply "putting a little bit on my stomach" does the trick for me. I don't have the appetite first thing in the morning to wolf down stacks of pancakes, but luckily it's not necessary. I have some breakfast biscuits in my kitchen, and I also carry some on my trike. They're called "Belvi...

Doing ring-assisted lunges at home

Image
Yesterday I saw an inspiring video of a young man doing pistol squats while holding onto rings, and it got me to thinking that I'd like to be able to do lunges, and could adapt the idea. Here's how I'm doing it. Here's the video version of this blog post if you prefer: I have some adjustable cables (kind of a poor man's TRX) which I can hook to a chin-up bar. Actually they aren't really connected, they just loop over it, but they're very sturdy. I have the handles adjusted at about chest height, and I'm starting each lunge in the down position, with one knee gently resting on the floor (my nice soft carpet). The idea is to push myself up with the one leg, with an assist (especially balance) with my arms. This is the first time I've used this technique, and I'm really trying to keep the emphasis on my legs, not on my back and arms. Still, it's a nice back stretch going "ass to grass", so I'm including that with this workout. I...

Training to build muscle and avoiding injury

Image
Training to build muscle is a very delicate balance. You have to train hard and heavy enough to encourage new growth, but not so hard and heavy that you injure yourself, even a little bit. The strain that happened on my right shoulder last April was very minor, but it was enough to hold back my training for at least two months. Injuries happen, that's just the way it is, so you can't always avoid injury, but you can do things that give you better odds of staying healthy. And it's like everything else, it's not enough to just know those things, you gotta do them. Here's the video version if you prefer: One of the most frustrating things to do when you've been looking forward to a workout is warming up with light weights, but it's just the way that your body works. I'm old enough to know better, but there have been times when I've been impatient, and went too heavy too soon in the workout. Bad mistake! I just set out some weights for tomorrow's wor...
