So.....I am flicking through my Oxygen Mag and I have come to realize that it is full of pitcures of food!(12 to be exact) And not the kind we are "aloud" to eat. As anyone else ever noticed that?
The first page is of a plate of brownies,with icing,and choc drizzled over the top. But guess what? The protein bar at the bottom of the page doesn't taste like those brownies...I know that and you know that. I am sure there are some good bars out there and I have tried alot of bars and they DO NOT taste like they are pitcured.
Oh and then there is the strawberry cheesecake bar as well.My arm tastes more like a piece of cheesecake then the bar does.
Then we have the fat blockers, which of course block the fat from the fries and burgers that are on that page.And of course those pills work b/c we all take them right?
I don't know but when the clock gets to around 4:30 and I am getting hungry everything in that book is looking good.
I think they may want to calm down on the food advertisments.Is not motivating me....its just leaving me hungry!

I know what you mean..THEY ARE EVERYWHERE}( Do they really want me to believe that a protien bar will taste like a hot fudge sundae...NOT SO MUCHx(

Ads are how magazines make money... Lori, I'm reading your post at a time when I'm snacking on a Boca soy burger (just the burger, no bun, no add-ons, no nothing) and soy milk. The soy milk, which I love, has been gone a long time ago. The burger... well, I'm STILL working on it. The things I do to build muscle, or keep the ones I have at least...

Just put the magazine down and do something else. I know I'll be eating an orange after I finish this psuedo-burger. My reward for cleaning up my eating. Didn't I tell you before how hard this is for me?

Or maybe I'll just lick my arm, which tastes more like pecan tarts.:7

I never got used to those Boca Burgers. I like some of the morningstar farms. Same as the tofu pups (substitutes for hot dogs lol) I think the morningstar farms hot dog substitutes taste better. About the magazines... I haven't renewed any subscriptions I buy one every couple of months, but they're all the same 90% ads 5% recycled articles 5% new stuff. Very disappointing. And about the protein bars there are some that actually taste good like Carbrite diet's Chocolate Coconut, but at the end they're just glorified candy like I read on a thread in the forums days ago. They have a lot of artificial ingredients. You're better off eating organic trail mix or mixed nuts as substitutes.
 
Ah yes Pinky...having a major sweet tooth you know where I am commng from.We both feel the same way about desserts.I was looking at the brownies and thinking "I wonder what the recipe is for those"x(
Anyway,I really like Boca burgers but garlic hangs on to me for DAYS! One time I ate two in one day and as I was talking to people you could see them slowly move back.:) I knew what they were doing.
