BUILD MY MUSCLES
You might have seen Premier Protein around the blogworld and like clockwork, they asked me to try out some of their products as well.
I tricked them into thinking that my opinion matters so they sent me some protein to build up my massive muscles chicken flap wings.
Premier Protein Shakes
{160 calories, 30 grams of protein, 3 grams of fat, low sugar, 24 vitamins and minerals, 8 essential Amino acids, good source of calcium}
Premier Protein Bars
{30 grams of protein, 280 calories, 7 grams of fat, no trans fats, hydrogenated oils or high fructose corn syrup}
What I liked?
I liked the chocolate shake and the nutritional facts: for 160 calories you get a lot of protein (30g), but the vanilla flavor was a little too sweet for me (I didn’t try the strawberry.)
I also like the yogurt peanut butter crunch bar best, but at nearly 300 calories, I’d cut in two and put the other half in a baggie and eat it later.
I think these bars could be good recovery “mini-meals”, but I like to keep my energy bars around 200 calories so half of it was a good pre-running snack.
{They’re available for sale online and in Costco and Sam’s Club stores.}
Premier Protein wants to give away a prize pack to five US only winners. The pack includes:
**6 bars: 2 bars in each flavor (Chocolate Peanut Butter, Double Chocolate Crunch and Yogurt Peanut Butter Crunch)
**4 shakes: 2 shakes in each flavor (chocolate and vanilla)
**Premier Protein nylon bag
All you have to do to enter is fill out an online form, vote twice, tweet once and then email me.
Just kidding. Just comment on this post and you’re entered to win.
Would you rather give up chocolate or bread for 1 month?
Alcohol or sugar for 1 year?
Dessert or breakfast for one week?

I would give up chocolate over bread. Give up alcohol over sweets. Before I had kids I wouldn’t have said that but going 9 months without alcohol twice now, I know I can do that. I would give up dessert for one week. I need breakfast.
I’d love to win the giveaway!
I’d love to try the premier protein bars!
Those sound really good! I have no problem giving up bread. I only eat it ocassionally as a sandwich but I kinda gave it up a while back….chocolate on the other hand….
I’ll give up bread. As much as it saddens me to say that, bread and tortillas have been making my tummy upset for the last couple months so I’ve pretty much already cut them out
Chocolate on the other hand is like coffee: dont care if it makes me sick, i must have it! 
That crunch bar looks delicious!
I would give up bread, alcohol and dessert. Thanks
For the info on the protein bars and shakes. I have just started running and was trying to figure out what products to try. Looks like I have my answer!
Ohhh! I’m looking for a new pre-running snack!! And I never win anything! And I’m hella jealous of all your coffee shenanigans. I miss coffee….me and coffee don’t agree.
I’d give up bread, sugar, and breakfast. As long as I’ve got some chocolate and some booze around, all is good!
I wonder if I’d be allergic to those protein bars like so many others…. hmm.
I’d give up chocolate over bread (thank goodness you didn’t make me choose between bread and cheese). Alcohol over sugar- I probably have had 6 drinks this entire year, so that would be easy. I can skip desert safely, but no one is safe if I don’t get breakfast!
I would give up bread for chocolate, Sugar for alcohol, and dessert for breakfast. Did I win?
P.S. I love coffee.
Would LOVE to try a new protein bar. May go to bars, are Pure Protein. But I’m open to a new fav!
I’d gladly give up bread. I’ve never been a big bread eater. Bread takes away from the meat. And I love my meat!!!
Geeezzzz, that didn’t sound good!!!!
This is tough! I guess chocolate, love my prerun english muffin and AB. A year without wine…dont think so. Dessert handsdown, breakfast is my FAV!
I would love to try these shakes, they have great stats! So intrigued.
I could probably give up booze for a year. Sugar, no way!!
I’d give up chocolate over bread, alcohol over sugar and dessert over breakfast…but considering how much I love dessert that one was a toughy!
I should give up sweets, but I can’t! I’d love to win.
Coffe, coffee, brown teeth and coffee has been the story of my life lately. I need to jump back on the water wagon! Fun giveaway!
I could never give up alcohol or chocolate unless I had to choose them between coffee lol
I would have to give up alcohol over sugar! I would die without sugar!
Love me some Dutch Bros! They started here in this valley and are on every other corner. So yummy and addictive! I am going to miss the convenience of drive-thru coffee shops when I move back to the Midwest next week.
Thanks for the chance to win (keeping my fingers crossed, because I need some help with my chicken wing flaps too)..
I would rather give up:
*Chocolate for a month
*Alcohol for a Year
*Dessert and Breakfast for a week
Id give up anything before I give up alcohol – sorryimnotsorry
it keeps me sane…well along with running -thank goodness!
I would give up bread, alcohol and dessert but not by choice:)
I would give up bread in a sec. I love chocolate!!
Def give up alchool over sugar I need sugar!
and I cant give up breakfeast so dessert it is for a week so long!
I would give up bread I do that already, I would give up alcohol, and dessert! I love breakfast
Chocolate, alcohol, breakfast – those would be my choices, although now writing them has me thinking I need some chocolate alcohol for breakast lol. Would love to try the protien goodies.
hmm…i’d give up chocolate over bread. but i’s still need my sugar fix, so then it’d be no alcohol. and i could do without dessert for a week!
Hands down I’d give up bread for dark chocolate.
I’ve given up both alcohol and sugar. The first permanently the second not so much permanent abstinence. Occasionally I do indulge in sugar in it’s finest form- Georgetown Cupcake when I travel home to DC. While in my southern exile I make do with cake from Publix. Not GC but it will do.
Breakfast or dessert? Tough. Breakfast is a new habit. Dessert only if it looks REALLY good. Like a Coconut Georgetown Cupcake- I’d sell one of my kids for that, baby!
I’ve given up chocolate, bread, alcohol and sugar for the last 19 days. Only 11 more to go! I’d give up chocolate, sugar and dessert. Gimme some free protein!!!
I like free stuff too.
chocolate, sugar, dessert. I do not think I could survive very long without a glass of wine. Now if you had asked give up coffee or alcohol, I’m not sure I would be able to answer that question!
i would give up anything for dessert. sweets. all day. everyday.
I would give up chocolate, alcohol and dessert.
I would give up breakfast over dessert any day!
I’d give up bread, alcohol and dessert. Life without chocolate just wouldn’t be worth living.
Bread, alcohol, dessert. I don’t think I could handle waking up without eating something immediately. Yikes. I’ve been wanting to try those protein shakes!
I would give up
Chocolate for one month.
Alcohol (I don’t drink so is this considered cheating?) for one year.
Dessert for one week. Because, let’s be honest, stuffed french toast may as well be dessert.
BREAD. I would wilt away to nothing on the Atkins diet. I heart carbs.
Id give up chocolate, sugar as long as it doesn’t include fruit, and dessert….if I had to
Good questions! I’d give up chocolate, sugar, and dessert. Well, I say that I would, but who knows if I actually set out to do it. I don’t pay much attention to sugar usually so I might miss it more than I think
Wow, you ask the tough questions. I would give up bread, alcohol, and dessert. I love coffe. My Keurig died this morning, and a little part of me died too. Thankfully my replacement is on its way.
I’d give up bread, sugar, and dessert. I don’t eat too much bread anymore, and while I have a killer sweet tooth I’d rather give up sugar than alcohol. I love my craft brews!
I could give up chocolate, bread, and alcohol (its been years!)…yes, I could actually live life to the fullest without chocolate..how crazy is that? Not a milk chocolate fan AT ALL. I do like a GOOD quality dark chocolate but that’s it.
I’d give up bread over chocolate! Dark choc (Swiss) is the BEST–oh and with some hazelnuts. Mmmm.
I wanna win!
I’ve given up both chocolate and bread before, but for me giving up bread is way harder!
Chocolate, alcohol, and dessert. I can’t go without my super carb fiestas! Or endless refills on coffee. I’m convinced my teeth will one day be sponsored by International Delight.
I would give up bread for chocolate (not a bread person; rarely eat it!). I would give up alcohol for sugar. I would give up dessert since my breakfast every morning is like dessert (deep chocolate vita top, scoop of natural skippy peanut butter, and a little whipped cream)!!
MMmmm, bread, alcohol & dessert (which contridicts the chocolate choice – ROFL!)
Thanks for the chance!
As much as I love chocolate, I think it would be harder to live without bread for a month!
And I’d get rid of alcohol for the year and dessert for the week. I need my breakfast!
Protein shakes are my favorite post workout recovery drink!
Hope I win–and I would give up dessert over breakfast for a week!
Hope I win!
I could give up chocolate for a month – I think. Ugh that would be really hard. I don’t think I could cut out all bread for a month – that’s just crazy talk.
It would be easy to give up alcohol for a year, I’ve done it multiple times and I wasn’t pregnant – sugar would be impossible to give up for a year.
Breakfast I could never give that up. I sometimes eat two mini breakfasts to keep my stomach from growling and prevent me from becoming a complete witch.
I’m looking forward to trying some new protein bars and drinks!
Easy…..
Bread would be gone in a month.
Alcohol would be history for a year.
Dessert would be hard but manageable to be without for a week.
I need my chocolate fix!!!
Always looking for new protein bars for on the run!
I’d rather give up:
Bread for a month.
Sugar for a year.
Dessert for one week.
I would give up bread; alcohol; and desserts (as long as my breakfast could have some type of “sweet” in it!)
I totally want to try these protein goodies! ahh!
I would love to win the protein giveaway! I’ve been drinking 1/2 a bottle of IsoPure after lifts (40g of protein, 0 carbs, 160 calories for a whole bottle), but I always like trying different things!
I like free too.
I’d give up chocolate over bread. As a runner, I’d just be sad without my morning pb& banana toast.
For a month, bread–chocolate is too tasty! For a year it would have to be sweets becaus I already don’t drink alcohol so saying that wouldn’t be giving up anything–but I don’t know whether I’d actually succeed. I have found that the more fruit I eat the less I crave sweets and treats. For a week I could give up dessert–early-morning workouts + no breakfast = one very grumpy Kailin. Plus as it is I eat breakfast at least twice before another late-morning snack, so I just couldn’t do it.
i <3 free stuff!!!
I’d give up bread- no way am I giving up my chocolate! And alcohol vs sweets…ha, I’m not sure. Sure I’ll be thinking about this all day, so thanks.
I would give up chocolate, alcohol and dessert. I totally need breakfast and would probably die without it. I’ve given up alcohol for long periods of time before and chocolate too. But I would love to try the recovery shakes… and I’m always looking for more protein!
Thanks for hosting the giveaway – those bars look good!
I’ve been looking for a post run recovery snack. Looks like this may fit the bill!
I wouldn’t even bother trying to give up any of those… I’d cheat within the week if not the day
I would much rather give up bread, sugar, and dessert
I’ve been eyeing up those protein products, thanks for the review!
I would definitely give up bread before I gave up chocolate!! lol Thanks for the giveaway!
I would totally give up chocolate for a week before bread. Especially with some butter…I’m a carbaholic! BUT I’ve been trying to incorporate more protein into my life, so I’d love to win some protein bars!
I could never give up breakfast, so I’ll miss you, dessert. Not a big drinker so I could give up booze easy peasy. Chocolate vs bread? Impossible choice.
Well, I already can’t have alcohol, caffeine, chocolate and gluten so…I’m keeping dessert and I live on candy.
would be easier to give up bread than chocolate….but never iced coffee drinks…would love to try me some protein bars!
Oh hard ones; I would give up chocolate, sugar and dessert. I would be a very sad Nicole. Thanks for the giveaway!
I would rather give up bread and alcohol…. Can’t live without chocolate or sugar. The last question is a doozie though…. I live for dessert but I can’t imagine having any energy if I skipped breakfast. Especially after a long run!
I would give up bread for my chocolate.
Thank you for the chance to win these. I’m training for my first half and am trying different pre and post race eats and drinks to see what works.
If I could vote twice, I definitely would.
Coconut latte? That sounds like that would be delicious.
In it to win it
I would love to try those bars. Always looking for a good protein shake!! Thanks for a great giveaway!
I have just discovered your blog and I’m hooked! I would give up chocolate over bread any day, alcohol over sugar, and dessert over breakfast. Thank you for the info and cracking me up on a daily basis!
We just finished a race and were talking about pres and post race fuel….so you must be a mind reader! I think I might have to find those shakes to try. Love your blog
I would love to try those!
I would give up chocolate, sugar, and dessert for a period of time. Breakfast is a MUST for me, and I enjoy the occasional drink. I’m happy to see these products at Sam’s Club. However, I wouldn’t want to buy them in bulk unless I was in love with them. I see Pro Compression socks advertising on here. Do you know the mmHg in a pair of them? I sent them an email to check, because $50 is a LOT for socks. Thats probably the reason I only own 2 pair haha.
I love protein bars. Keep a few stashed in my car or purse in case I need a snack. Would love to try these!
I would rather give up bread for a month, and everyone around me would prefer I give up bread over chocolate too. I gave up chocolate for lent one year and after two weeks my mom threw a bag of Hershey kisses at me and begged me to give up beig a snot instead.
As for the rest, I’d rather give up alcohol and dessert.
Make me a winner SR!
I would give up bread, alcohol (don’t drink much anyways), and dessert. I go to bed looking forward to breakfast, and get very cranky very fast if I don’t ge to eat breakfast within an hour of waking up.
Just started reading your blog (and running). You are such a motivation! Thanks!
I think out of all of these things, I could give up breakfast for a week. The other ones… would be pretty tough!
Chocolate over bread, which is apparently unusual but I love carbs and caramel
I could go without chocolate for a week- unless it’s “that” week.
I could go a year without alcohol with little sacrifice.
I love freebies!! But I also love bread. I can’t give up bread.
I would totally give up bread, sugar and desert. I teach high school and in no way would I function w/out chocolate, alcohol and breakfast.
Mmm…those bar flavors sound good. Probably because they have the word chocolate and peanut butter in them. Get’s me every time. I’ve never tried a protein shake so I’m curious about that as well!
I’d give up dessert for a week. I like eggs too much to skip breakfast.
I would never be able to give up chocolate, sugar or dessert. I have to have something sweet after dinner every day
I would rather give up chocolate, sugar and dessert; apparently, this means I like booze over the other choices ha ha. I could do without bread, as well, but never breakfast. So, many a breakfast of alcohol would be my perfect choice
I hope my comments don’t commit me to anything, ’cause those are some frightening choices.
For 1 month, I could give up chocolate over bread.
I like my alcohol, but I love my ice cream more. The alcohol could go. (in pretendworld)
Breakfast trumps all, though. I could give up dessert for a week.
Hope I win me some protein shakes and bars!
I would give up alcohol for a year. I don’t drink much anyway, so it wouldn’t be that hard. Out of all those options, then hardest thing for me to give up would be sugar!
I would give up bread for chocolate I need sweets in my life:)!
Bread. Not doubt, chocolate is too important!
I’d love to try the Pure Proteing products! My picks to give up…bread, alcohol and breakfast.
Looks like I should proofread before I hit submit next time.
I could never give up breakfast but bread isn’t too hard to go w/o. Thanks!!
I would give up chocolate, sugar & dessert! I love salty goodies, but the protein shakes and bars look delicious! So did your coffee extravaganza
Yum!
I would give up bread, alcohol (this one was really tough!) and dessert. I’m a cranky girl without breakfast!
I’m a glutton, can’t give up anything
I’d give up bread over chocolate, sugar over alcohol, and dessert over breakfast(love my oatmeal in the morning).
OOPs, meant to say alcohol over sugar. I can live w/out my beer for a month.
Hmmmm…. I’d give up chocolate, sugar, and dessert:) And I’d like to replace it with those protein bars and shakes!
I have seen these bars around, would love to try it!
Chocolate sugar and dessert..if I skip breakfast I’m a bear!!
I had to give up booze & sugar…..I was pregnant and had gestational diabetes, no fun!
I would give up bread, sugar and dessert- the other 3 are mandatory for daily survival.
I would give up bread WAY before I would give up chocolate!
I don’t drink, so giving up alcohol would be easy!
This would be tough, but I would have to say that I would give up breakfast before I would give up dessert.
I am completely addicted to sugar, there is no way.
Need more protein
I give up Chocolate, Booze, and Dessert!
However, I would like to win all three… Pick me Pick ME!
I think I would give up chocolate over bread, sugar over alcohol and dessert over breakfast. I couldn’t function if I didn’t get breakfast every morning.
I’d give up bread, alcohol & breakfast, so you can tell sugar is my jam. Can’t live without it!!!! I would love to try some of those pure protein goodies for sure!
uh premier that is…my bad, lol
I would give up chocolate, alcohol and dessert. I cannot ingest too much sugar or it gives me the shakes / palpitations. I love me some coffee with sweet n low!!!!
I could survive PMS without bread, but not without chocolate. Although I luuuurve my wine, I could easily give up alcohol over sugar. Gotta have breakfast post-run, so ix-nay on the essert-day.
Bread, alcohol, and sugar. The sugar would the only one that would be a challenge, but it’s something that I’d like to try anyway and am just too weenie to take the plunge and do.
Nix the bread and alcohol, but I love breakfast every morning and sometimes for dinner! Those protein bars and drinks sound divine!
bread.alcohol.breakfast
I would give up bread, alcohol, and breakfast…..apparently I have a sweet tooth;)
Chocolate, alcohol and dessert. No question.
Chocolate, alcohol and dessert. Thanks for the chance to win.
I’d give up chocolate, alcohol and dessert!
I would give up bread for 1 month, alcohol for 1 year, and dessert for one week.
I’m with you on keeping protein bars around 200 calories, otherwise those calories start to sneak up on you.
I would give up chocolate, alcohol & dessert. I enjoy my various breads, I need breakfast to jump start & fuel my morning runs and sugar just seems impossible because it is in almost everything!
I like cheap and free too! Also can’t want to try the Premier Protein products!
Bread for a month, alcohol for a year, breakfast for a week. Clearly, I have a sweets problem.
chocolate/alchohol/dessert
BUT dont ask about coffee vs PB. Id have to die.
Since bread and alchohol are basically my go-to breakfast, I think I’ve got these questions all wrapped up. Thanks for the giveaway!
chocolate over bread.
alcohol over anything because I don’t drink.
dessert over breakfast because I am a hungry monster in the morning!
There is no way I could give up chocolate. I must have a piece once a day!
I’d rather die than give up chocolate & alcohol.
Chocolate….Alcohol…Breakfast…
These are my fave protein bars!
Glad to see you are enjoying yourself up there with your family. I too am doing the same out here in desert-heat/valley-flat/boonieville-farm-land.
Here’s my answer to your questions:
I’d give up bread over chocolate (it’s been awhile since I’ve had chocolate though, SHOCKER).
I’d give up sugar because I LOVE my wine (takes a quick sip of cool white wine). This statement, coming from a former sugar-addict.
I need breakfast, so I’d give up dessert. Although I consider exceptionally sweet fruit as dessert. Yesterday I was standing under my mom’s fig tree, searching for that sweet fig nectar. Since we are all fruit-aholics, there were only two that were ripe. Sweet and ripe, they truly are.
Happy Labor Day weekend!
Chocolate or bread for 1 month? Bread
Alcohol or sugar for 1 year? Alcohol
Dessert or breakfast for one week? Breakfast
I would give up chocolate over breads any day, alcohol over sugar and would never give up breakfast – even if I have to eat it in the car on my way to work on those crazy mornings.
I would love to try those.
I could give up chocolate over bread, alcohol over sugar, and desserts over breakfast. I’m looking for a yummy protein fix, hopefully these products satisfy my taste buds.
I think that giving up dessert for a week would be the easiest. Although I have a crazy sweet tooth and no self-control when it comes to dessert – so maybe not as easy as I would have thought
I saw these bars at costco the other day and wanted to sample some. Obviously I would need to try them first before I purchase, awesome giveaway!
I would give up bread over CHOCOLATE any day. I can also live without sugar but since it’s in CHOCOLATE I would have to give up alcohol. Then I would give up dessert cuz I could make my needed breakfast with Nutella and have the best of both worlds!! Oh, BTW I could never give up coffee either. Just sayin’
I would love to try a new protein bar!
If I give up dessert, do I get to keep chocolate? You can have my sugar, but don’t take my alcohol away! lol
Feed me bars please!!!
As much as I like chocolate it has to go. I need bread! (Hello former fat kid food issues!)
I could give up booze, but not all the amazing stuff with sugar in it. (FYI- Wine is basically just grapes. Right? Doesn’t count.)
Dessert is amazing and I could eat it 5 times a day, but I have to eat right when I get up or I turn into a beast! So bye bye dessert.
I would give up bread, alcohol, and breakfast!
I would give up bread over chocolate, alcohol over sugar and dessert over breakfast, I’ve got to have my breakfast!
I’d love to win the giveaway!
I would love to try the premier protein products. I would give up chocolate, sugar, and dessert. I love bread, wine and margarita’s and I always eat my breakfast. Enjoy your time in Astoria.
Okay, i emailed you once, voted 4x and tweeted twice..was that right? oh, nevermind! Thanks for entering me in the giveaway – they look yummy!
I would have to give up chocolate because I am a carb-lover! Alcohol over sugar and dessert over breakfast (best meal of the day).
I would love to try the Premier Protein Products!
I would give up desert, there is NO way I could do anything productive without breakfast.
I would give up alcohol. That would be easy for me since I don’t drink it:)
I would give up alcohol over chocolate or dessert….
I would give up chocolate over bread, alcohol over sugar (this actually is the toughest decision of my life) and dessert over breakfast. I love breakfast! I go to bed knowing I get to wake up drink coffee, run and eat breakfast. I live for mornings
I’m powered by beer and chocolate. Breakfast gets the boot
I love the Premier Protein shakes!! Great recovery drinks!
Wish I could run as fast as you! Enjoy your blog so much!
Thanks,Stacey
I give up bread!
I could give up dessert but never breakfast- it’s my favorite meal and the most important one of the day!
Im sure my priorities are off, but I’d give up my bread, alcohol and breakfast. I’m a sucker chocolate desserts loaded with sugar.
I’d give up chocolate, alcohol and dessert.
I could give up bread over chocolate. I would have no problem giving up alcohol. Since I work out in the morning – I have to have my breakfast (but would sure miss dessert).
Bread would be pretty easy to give up. Sugar would be more difficult because there are hidden sugars in everything and you would have to be reading labels all day.
I’m not a huge chocolate fan, so I could give up chocolate and alcohol but not bread!!
Give up my red wine? Never! Sugar can take a hike…just give me my wine on Friday evening.
I would give up chocolate (I eat a lot of sandwiches), alcohol (don’t drink), and dessert (I loovveeee breakfast)!
Chocolate, sugar and desserts I could do without. I might die without bread ( yum yum carbs) alcohol (hello me sanity) and breakfast ( most favorite and important meal of the day!)
I wish I could give up wine for a year- but life, like kids, hubby’s.. stress….cause me to drink! I could easily give up dessert for a year, no sweet tooth here! Cheers
I would give up chocolate (love me some bread!), alcohol, and dessert.
25 minute wait for coffee?! That better have been the best coffee ever!
25 minute wait for coffee?! I think I would have needed coffee to just wait in that line!
Giving up chocolate would be too easy for me – not a big fan of chocolate unless it is wrapped around a chewy caramel center or in the form of hot chocolate with peppermint schnapps
So I guess I’d have to give up bread…lol.
So with that, I ask of you to pick me, pick me
I’d rather give up bread since I don’t eat that much anyways. I’d rather give up alcohol than sugar since I don’t drink that much anyways and there is sugar in so much stuff. Though I’d rather give up desserts for a week than breakfast. I get really hungry in the morning. I’d start eating lunch at 9:00am.
I would give up chocolate over bread… Sugar over alcohol… and dessert over breakfast… but I’m not a huge sweets eater… I prefer salty snacks!
YUM!
I’d give up chocolate, alcohol, and dessert… but I’d probably die
I’d love to win, I need some more protein in my life!
Giveaway’s, I love giveaways!
Would you rather give up chocolate or bread for 1 month? Bread without any hesitation!
Alcohol or sugar for 1 year? That’s tough. A year without wine hmmm or a year without froyo, chocolate, yummy goodness. Okay wine. I give up wine.
Dessert or breakfast for one week? Breakfast! I’ll survive without it.
Chocolate stays, bread goes. Alcohol goes, and breakfast stays. Breakfast is my dessert. Chocolate pancakes? WIN!
Let’s see I could give up bread before chocolate. Give up alcohol for a year and the last one is the hardest-hmmm…I’d have to say breakfast. But please don’t ever enforce these strict rules-I love food and variety too much. Enjoy the rest of your trip up North!
I’d give up chocolate, alcohol, and dessert.
I would give up chocolate, sugar and dessert. As I get older I don’t have as much of a sweet tooth I think
Chocolate, sugar, dessert! Thanks.
I’d love to win! Gotta keep the bread, sugar and desserts!!
I’d give up bread over chocolate, I’ve been trying too, too much wheat makes my tum unhappy. I can’t live without sugar, I think I could forego acholol for a bit–until the next girl’s weekend anyway.
That is a boatload of protein, would love to try it. I noticed your site is structured differently–I don’t know if you changed it or it’s just different on my phone but it looks great!
I’d like to win some free stuff! Please & thank you!
Chocolate, Alcohol, and Dessert. I’m not sure I could ever give up bread or breakfast!
Bread, sugar, and dessert. I couldn’t live without chocolate, beer, or breakfast. The 300 calorie bar sounds dangerous to me- that’s like a 4-mile run for me, and the reason I run is to burn calories, not pack them on with a post-run snack. But, I’d love to try the shakes- I always wonder about them.
Thanks for the giveaway and happy trails!
I love me some wine, so definitely, I would rather give up chocolate over alcohol (one of the reasons we don’t have kids yet-that, and the whole “being pregnant” thing) and, breakfast foods are my favorite-I work nights, so I give myself license to eat them at any time-so I would way rather give up dessert!
I would give up chocolate, sugar and dessert. Would love to try the new product!
If I had to choose? Goodbye chocolate, alcohol and dessert!
I think I may have gotten kinda lame in my old age. I’d miss chocolate a bit I think, but I prefer it in small chunks of the insanely bitter stuff, so I don’t know if that even counts as the same thing other people are eating as “chocolate” anymore.
Happily this is not a requisite of winning the protein stuff or I’d be completely out of luck!
I could give up chocolate, i dont drink anyways, and you dont want to be around me if i miss breakfast!!
I would much rather give up bread than chocolate!
As long as I have Diet Coke, coffee, wine and chocolate (and in that order) all else can go away!! Only other necessary evil would be french fries!
I’d give up chocolate over bread, that’s an easy choice. Dessert over breakfast, a lil tougher but still do-able. But choosing alcohol or sugar, yikes! Thats a tough one!!
Chocolate; Alcohol; Dessert.
There’s too much calories in those bars. Actually even the calorie count for the shake seems to b on the high side – mine is 25g protein for 120 or 122 calories. Caveat: it’s soy protein though.
I would give up bread, sugar and alcohol. Doesn’t sound like fun though!
I would give up alcohol for one year over sugar…because I don’t know how I’d ever cut down on sugar.
I would skip dessert for a week over breakfast because we all know breakfast is the most important day!
And I would prob give up chocolate for a month because I like to eat sandwiches on occasion.
Thanks for the amazing giveaway, I wanna try these bars/shakes!!!!!!!!!
I would give up bread, alcohol, and dessert. Thanks for the giveaway!! I would like to try these!!
I would give up chocolate, alcohol, and dessert.
Bread, alcohol, and dessert……
Definitely chocolate. I’m a carb o holic!!!
I love chocolate protein shakes for post run recovery!
Chocolate, sugar, dessert is what I would give up. I love me some bread.
I like free, too! Pick me!
Free is such a wonderfully glorious word!!
I love my bread, alcohol, and dessert, but I couldn’t live without chocolate, sugar, and breakfast each day! I also couldn’t live without peanut butter, so I’m super glad that wasn’t thrown in the mix!
I would cut out the bread, alcohol and dessert. Lack of breakfast makes me cranky!
Bread over chocolate, alcohol over sugar, and breakfast over dessert. Now, picking between coffee and sugar, that would be a tough call.
Awesome giveaway! I’ve only ever tried their shakes but they are my fave!
I would give up bread over chocolate any day. I could say good bye to alcohol, but I could never skip breakfast.
I am in need of some protein bars!!!!!!!
Have definitely seen this around and am definitely interested in trying! Count me in!
I need some protein in my life!
I would give up bread before chocolate, alcohol before sugar, and dessert before breakfast. It sounds pathetic but the hardest of these three challenges would be no dessert for one week! I have such a terrible sweet tooth and if it wasn’t for running I would be a total fatty!
Would love to win these protein bars! I’m always looking for new things to try before and after my runs!
The protein goodies sound great!
I would rather give up chocolate than bread (me and fresh bread arelikethis), I’d give up sugar over alcohol (vino is a must!), and I need to start my day with breakfast else I’m a big b$tch so for the sake of those around me, I’d give up dessert.
I am always on the lookout for new protein drinks/bars- these sound right up my alley!
I love the Pure Protein chocolate shakes (already made). I’ve bought them religiously at Costco for three years.
I would rather give up chocolate, sugar, and dessert. I would love to try the new protein.
I would rather give up bread, alcohol, and breakfast (as long as I could still.consume mass amounts of coffee). I would love to try the new products
I’d give up: Chocolate over bread, alcohol over sugar (as much as it pains me to say it), dessert over breakfast (though again, it pains me to say so). The new protein stuff sounds interesting!
Carb loading with beer <3
I’d definitely give up dessert and alcohol. I would die without my bowl of oatmeal for breakfast!
It’s tough to say between bread and chocolate. I eat so many bready things that it would really put a cramp in my eating style
This is my first time to the blog! I love it already:)!
I’d give up chocolate, sugar, dessert.
I’d have to go with chocolate, sugar, and dessert. Who could go a full year without alcohol?! Maybe a month or two but a full year… no to the max. And I couldn’t give up breakfast because I would starve to death before lunch.
I would give up chocolate, alcohol and dessert.
I’d love to win! I’m trying to build up my chicken flap wings, too.
great job on your running chica!!
I’d give up chocolate, alcohol & dessert. xo
I’d love to win! I could easily give up alcohol cuz I don’t drink, I have to keep the chocolate and breakfast.
Bread, alcohol and dessert!
Bread or chocolate? That’s a heart-wrenching decision. But I’d have to give up chocolate. This (wo)man COULD live on bread alone.
I would give up alcohol over sweets and dessert over breakfast.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
I’d definitely give up chocolate before bread, alcohol before sugar (since i don’t drink anyways…ha), and dessert before breakfast (strawberry nutella waffles? dessert disguised as breakfast…). I hope I win the protein pack!!
Hmm… definitely alcohol over sugar, dessert over breakfast. As for bread or chocolate…thats a toughie! I’d love to try the protein pack…always looking for new bars to try!
Id’ give up my precious booze!
I would give up alcohol. I would not be able to last without breakfast and dessert!
Chocolate. Alcohol. Dessert.
I’d rather give up chocolate, bread would be so much harder. The other choices are harder, but alcohol and desert.
I would give up bread, sugar & dessert! Hope I win the protein bars to take their places!
i’d totally give up bread – but NEVER Chocolate.
Would love to win! I don’t want to give up anything! All of those are good foods in moderation!
I would never give up breakfast. I wake up starving.
I don’t think I would have a problem giving up bread or alcohol, but breakfast and dessert?? That is just crazy people talk!!!
I can’t do without breakfast so I will probably have to give up dessert for one year.
I would give up chocolate, I love it but I love bread more! And maybe alcohol and dessert? I don’t really want to think about that though lol
I would be fine giving up most things…except for breakfast. I probably couldn’t pay anyone to put up with me if I had to skip breakfast.
I would rather give up chocloate for a month, hands down. Love me my carbs….
I love the dutch bros. logo! We had wooden shoes as our place cards at our wedding (i’m half dutch) and I had wooden tulips as my bouquet.
I’m pretty sure it’s not possible for me to give up bread, so it’d have to be chocolate.
I’d rather give up bread for a month, can’t give up my chocolate – i’m a feen. I’m not a big alcohol drinker, so I’d give it up for one year since I need my sugar in my chocolate. I could live without dessert (a.k.a chocolate) for a week, but cannot pass up breakfast as it’s my favorite meal
Love your blog & would love to win the giveaway.
Chocolate, alcohol, and dessert… I NEED carbs – and since carbs are essentially sugar, I guess I need sugar too..
I would love to win this! I would much rather give up bread than chocolate for a month, alcohol rather than sugar for a year, and breakfast rather than for a week! I have the worst sweet tooth in existence.
I don’t eat a ton of dessert, but I would like to have the option of eating it, so I’d give up breakfast for a week!
I’d much rather give up bread for a month and alcohol for a year!! CANNOT give up my chocolate or sugar, LOL!!
I love carb so, it would be easy to trade in the chocolate. Glass of wine some cheese and a big hunk of bread……heaven!
I would give up desserts for a week. In fact, maybe I should try that…
I would give up chocolate, alcohol and dessert!
Bread, alcohol and breakfast — who needs them?!
I would definitely give up chocolate and sweets…I NEED my carbs and wine
I would love to try the shakes and bars!
I couldn’t give up breakfast….I would rather eat it for every meal for a week.
I’d give up chocolate. I would be one cranky butt if I didn’t have the option of bread.
I love choco and bread both so much! But I guess id say hola to bread.
. Def alcohol for a year and dessert would be my throw outs.
I think I would give up chocolate… But that is the hardest question ever!
Dessert over breakfast. And alcohol over sugar.
I would give up bread…this girl needs her chocolate. I don’t drink, so alcohol it is and I need my breakfast.
I think I’d rather give up chocolate than bread!
i’d give up alcohol over sweets, bread over chocolate (although I love bread!) and breakfast over dessert. yes, sweet tooth…that i am!
hence why i’d probably love the chocolate protein shake
I would have to say chocolate sugar and dessert, but believe me it would be reallllyyy hard!
I am always looking for new products to check out! These look like a good change from my usual Muscle Milk!
I could give up alcohol for sure, since I hate it anyway. I could give up chocolate too, I love my bread! I like the calorie content of the 160 shakes. 30g of protein is awesome! I would love to try them!
First time to leave a comment but love your blog. Can I ask how many miles you average a week? You are so thin-do you watch your sugar and carbs. Would love a post on your nutrition.! Thanks
Give up chocolate, dessert and alcohol…. Tough!
mmmmm protein!
(i’d give up sugar before i give up drinking beer anyday)
The alcohol would be the easiest for me to give up because it’s not as tempting annnddd around here you have to drive 239084723895 miles to even get any!
this one is easy!
bread > chocolate
alcohol > sweets… light weight these days!
dessert > breakfast
Yum!!! I’m on the search for a new protein product. I would love to try these out. All of the flavors sound delicious.
I could give up alcohol for sure.
I’d give up chocolate over bread.
I’d give up dessert over breakfast (but that’s a really hard one!!!).
Ohh, these protein bars and drinks sound great and I’d love to win and give them a try!
If I have a very dark chocolate (80-90%) bar (along with my salad and proteins) I am fine without having sugar, bread, alcohol, or salty snacks.
I’d give up chocolate, sugar and dessert – guess my sweet tooth isn’t that strong. I can’t imagine living without beer and pizza!
I’m looking for some new protein bars–getting sick of my usuals!
I just saw those at Costco but I worry about buying that much when I don’t know if I like it or not. I’ve been burned before (hello giant bag of protein powder)
Give up bread…… Now that’s crazy talk. Thanks for coordinating the give away!
Tough choices!
I would choose to give up bread over chocolate. Sugar over alcohol and dessert wins over breakfast.
I defiitely couldn’t give up chocolate!
I’d like to win!!
I love trying new protein bars!
I’d never give up bread, are you kidding me? Alcohol over sugar – I’m a runner! I need sugars and gels and gummy bears! – and I could do without breakfast and dessert really.
Chocolate or bread is a really tough one, but I think I’d give up chocolate. On day 32 though you better believe I’d be swimming in a vat of it!!! I’d give up Alcohol over sugar. There’s too many things with sugar (even just a little) to give it up completely!!! And I NEED my Bfast, so easy choose to give up dessert!!!
I’d give up chocolate, alcohol and dessert!!!
bread, sugar, dessert tough times with no sugar or dessert but I need my breakfast and some drinks after a long week of work
I would give up chocolate over bread…but it would definitely be hard!
The easiest thing for me to give up out of the things you mentioned would probably be alcohol. I love everything else more!
I would give up bread for sure. I don’t eat a ton of bread as it is. But, give up chocolate or beer/wine..uh, no! One of my Ragnar vanmates had this brand of drink in our cooler, but I didn’t try one. I’d like to give it a go.
I’d give up chocolate and dessert. Alcohol or sugar is a tough one bc most of the alcohol I like has sugar in it.
I’d love to try the shakes! I’m always looking for ones that I can actually enjoy.
And you’d be crazy to think I could give up bread. That’s like asking me to give up bacon! And
Definitely bread. Can’t give up that chocolate!
Definitly easier to give up chocolate than bread for me
hope I win.
I would give up pretty much anything before bread!!
I would love to win the Premier Protein pack!
I’d love to win the giveaway. Its a hard call, but I think I would rather give up chocolate than bread!
I would give up bread, sugar and dessert. Although if I give up sugar, I guess I can’t have dessert. Trick question.
Would love to iwn the pack!
I’ve seen these at Costco before, and would love to try them!
I would give up chocolate, alcohol and dessert (i’m cranky without breakfast!)
I could give up chocolate for a month.
I could give up alcohol for a year (I wouldn’t like it, however).
I could give up dessert for a week…fo SHO!
I’d love to win some protein stuff.
I’d give up chocolate, alcohol and breakfast out of the above. I’m not a huge chocolate person unless it’s in ice cream, alcohol isn’t that important to me and I usually only really eat breakfast on weekends anyway.
I already don’t eat bread and alcohol. Dessert, on the other hand, would be hard. I love it!
I’d give up bread over chocolate and give up alcohol over sugar……..a day without chocolate is a day without sunshine!
I would give up chocolate, alcohol and dessert!
Easy peasy. I’d give up:
Sugar
Chocolate
Dessert
Seriously, Alcohol, Bread, and Breakfast are very high on my list of food items/categories I enjoy.
I’ll keep my chocolate, thank you very much. The rest I could go either way.
I would like to try this product if it taste good. Been shopping around for a protein shake i can use.
