Hi Alison - where do you find SF ketchup. I've been looking, especially to make ****tail sauce for shrimp. Ruth

I found it at a local grocery store (D&W). It was with the other ketchup. I will warn you it costs about three times more than regular kethcup. It's Walden Farms brand. Try their website waldenfarms.com. I have seen other varieties, check with the diabetic products. The flavor is a little off. I wouldn't want to eat it plain on something but it made a fabulous meatloaf. Also it's almost 0 calories. Good luck. Alison

I think this is a good post and that us April-ers should post what we are eating at least once a day......to help us see what others are eating and tolerating. Food options are so limited right now.....it helps to see what other choices are out there! Yesterday I had....... Breakfast- Carnation Instant Breakfast Drink Snack- String Cheese Lunch- 4 oz. of Cottage Cheese with 2 Peach Slices Dinner- 4 medium-sized Shrimp Snack- Hard Boiled Egg Sipped on water all day

Yesturday .. I had... B'fast - 1 scrambled egg w/ 2oz. grits Lunch - 3 oz of tuna with 2 saltines Dinner - 1 stuffed pasta shell with cottage cheese & sauce Snack: 1 sf popsicle

Breakfast- choc protien drink with a 1/2 bannana, and ice cubes blended. Snack- 4 oz bananna pudding. Lunch- 2TBSP tuna, and 2 crackers(Hi-ho wheat) Snack-choc protein drink with 1/2 bannana, and iced cubes blended. Plus 30oz of water...I shoot for 80 oz water/day. SO FAR... By the way I love the idea of sharing what we ate.

I also think it's a great idea to share what we're eating. I don't seem to be able to eat nearly as much as I think I should. Bkfst - 2 oz Cream of Wheat w/ skim milk Lunch - 1 tbs. hummus w/ 3 crackers Dinner - 1/4 of a Lean Cuisine Turkey/gravy with mixed vegetables Snack - 2 Edy's S.F. whole fruit popsicles Drink - Crystal Lite Usually I also have a Pure Protein shake (available at Trader Joe's) - 21 g. protein, 100 cal.

I use the same protein shake as you.. Pure protein from trader joe's, did you see pure protein also had one with 35 gms of protein?? I'm thinking of trying that one, since anything with protein doesnt seem to sit very well with me.
