I'm still trying to get some of these things straight...
A Big Boy Smoothie with whey protein powder and strawberries is FP, right?
And would a pita with scrambled eggs and laughing cow cheese be E?
Also, what is the difference between Joseph's Pita and "regular" wheat pitas?

1. Big Boy Smoothie, yes, that would FP is you keep to just 4-5 medium strawberries.
2. Pita w/ Scrambled eggs and Laughing Cow cheese. If you are using a Joseph's pita and egg WHITES only then this would be a FP. If you are using a regular pita (100% whole wheat would be better than white....but make sure it is less than 45g carbs) then you would want to use egg WHITES to keep it an E. You could make this S by using a Joseph's pita (not a regular pita) and using whole eggs...if you do that, you could also use regular cheese.
Joseph's pitas are a low carb pita (I think they have 6 or 8g carbs per pita) regular pitas are much higher in carbs. I get my Joseph's pitas a Wal-Mart, on a low shelf in front of the deli. Two Wal-Marts in my area have them, and one doesn't. So, if you have more than 1 Wal-Mart nearby you could try looking at another one if one doesn't have them. I hope this helps you!

Whoops. Didn't realize that a fp Big Boy only had 4-5 strawberries. I've been tossing in a large handful!
Looks like I'll need to adjust the egg pita in the future. I was using whole eggs and a regular, wheat pita.
Our local Walmart doesn't carry Joseph's but we have another Walmart about 30 minutes away that I could try. I should probably call first...
Thanks for your help!!

Are we talking a whole pita? and is it still FP if Laughing Cow cheese is added to the whites?
