Its not our business, it's hers...right? "You're too skinny" is just as hurtful as "You're too fat".

That said - I have two excellent standby smoothie recipes. One uses bananas, so I won't share it...but the other is all strawberries. Even my husband will drink it as a desert!

1 scoop vanilla protien powder (I use Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey)
6 large frozen strawberries
1/2 cup skim milk
a couple of ice cubes

Blend until smooth (a good quality blender helps for this) - it's delicious! Having a good quality protien power makes a huge difference in mouth feel and taste.
Awesome! I have some great new recipes! Thanks...I start tomorrow! And thanks for the words...I know everyone is like, well, you are thin, so if YOU lose weight, there is a problem. The goal is not weight loss, it is getting some nutrients where I normally don't without weighing myself down. I will lose weight because of my increased riding that goes along with my already crazy active lifestyle. I feel better being streamlined.
If only someone would make good for you baskin robbins ice cream.
