Let’s face it: Dessert makes women happy!

I am a foodie and that has been the biggest challenge for me when it comes down to getting results. I usually don’t eat enough during the day and then make up for it late at night……continually sabotaging my hard-earned gym efforts. Recently, I have been experiencing cravings for dessert foods, but I know how much fats and carbs affect my ability to maintain my nice, flat stomach. So, I have been experimenting in the kitchen and trying to find ways to satiate my late-night-hunger without destroying my results. I weighed 128 lbs last November (2012) and am currently down to 111 lbs. I want to stay here without starving!

I have discovered another “whey” to enjoy dessert while maintaining my current weight. Who is hungry for some Protein Pudding?!?

This is the basic recipe:

Mixing Instructions:

Mix 1 1/2 cups milk, 1 packet of the sugar free instant pudding mix, and 2 scoops of protein in a blender for 2 minutes. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
