Thursday's Feedings!

Yesterday went great. I didn't seem to be able to eat as much at a sitting (does the liquid thing kind of shrink your tummy, Stephanie?) but managed to get in plenty of food: B - Ezekiel toast w/pb S - Protein shake L, S, D - around 3/4 c chicken salad over greens with balsamic vinaigrette, two crispy flat bread triangles (had this for lunch at a restaurant - took the rest of the day to eat it) S - Smartforme drink Fitday totals: Cal 1032, fat 47, carbs 50, prot 87. Too much fat, due mostly to the mayo in the chicken salad and the oil in the vinaigrette. I estimated high fat on those because I'm not sure how they were made. Have a great day! Today is another liquid day for me (trying for twice per week). Margaret

Good Morning Margaret! I am not sure if the doing the liquids shrinks your stomach or not...good question though. B - Power Crunch Protein Bar, triple chocolate flavor L mixed stemed veggies and the inside of half the chicken fajitia wrap thingy at applebees D Second half of the chicken fajitia thingy inside only w 100 calorie bag of pop corn Got in 100 oz of water, did not work out, got in all meds except for last dose of calcium. Talk to you!

HI Margaret. I was wondering where you buy the ezekial bread? Ive heard of it many times but cant seem to find it at any of our local grocery stores or walmart. Does it taste pretty good? Thanks, Mary

I have found it in the frozen section of the healthfoods section in my local stores...usually next to all of the soy products and organic frozen fruit.

I get it in the freezer section of the grocery, near the health food items. If P'cola has a Trader Joes or a Whole Foods, they'd have it. I think there used to be a pretty big health food store on Highway 90 in Pace...they might have it if they're still there.

Oh, and...I think it's yummy. It takes some getting used to at first, but it's much better for you than regular bread. They also make yummy, healthy, and very filling tortillas. Margaret

See, I haven't even tried it. I just know where to find it since I love to troll the healthfoods section. In fact, I don't even eat bread...have only tried a couple of bites here or there. I find that it doesn't satisfy the craving like it used to...eating a 1/4 of a sandwich seems like too much effort to make the darn thing for what little I get . Now, garlic bread on the other hand...I wish I could allow myself to give that a whirl!! Hot bread and butter...how I miss that! Probably too much...
