Hey Twilight,

I also had shakes early on. I guess it's just different for some people. If you're exercising a lot, maybe that's helping your progress... but be wary of these frankenfoods at first.

I didn't even introduce the shakes until 2 weeks after starting. I figured if I can get through the first 2 weeks totally clean, I'm good to go. Then I'd have a shake with breakfast every other day. I HATE eggs... so that's why I did it. I was eating hot dogs at breakfast and I needed something to break up my pattern...

Now, I drink one every day for breakfast. With either 2 little ham steaks or 4-6 slices of bacon. Gives me EXACTLY enough energy to go exercise and get my day started!!
