DONNA i am sorry to hear that you are not feeling well !!! keep getting your fluids in.. protein drink 1/4 piece of a mini turkey sub 4 bites of a baked potatoe 1/4 cup of cerel no puking!!!!!!!!!!!! woo hoo

Hope your feeling better soon Donna! GOod luck at your appt tomorrow. Can you remind me how you make your Peanutbutter cottage cheese oatmeal? What type of oatmeal do you use? I need some variety in the morning and this sounds good.

Sure thing Buffy! I use this awesome low fat powdered peanutbutter I bought from www.bellplantation.com called PB2. It has 70% less fat than regular peanutbutter, half the calories, and a little less protein. I love this stuff! You can use reduced fat peanutbutter as well and I'll give the nutrition info for both so you can see the difference. 1/4 cup old fashioned plain oatmeal (not instant) 1/4 cup water 1/4 cup 2% cottage cheese 1 Splenda packet 1 tablespoon PB2 or 1 tablespoon reduced fat peanutbutter Cook oatmeal and water in microwave for 45 seconds. Add in PB2 or peanutbutter, cottage cheese and Splenda. Mix well and add a splash more water to moisten. Eat up! Nutrition info with PB2: 149 calories 4 fat 19 carbs 2.7 sugars 11 protein Nutrition info with Jif Reduced Fat Peanutbutter: 220 calories 8.6 fat 23 carbs 2.7 sugars 14.3 protein

Thanks Donna. I made it this morning but could only eat about half of it. I have some peanut butter from Parker Farms that is 105 calories, 7.5 fat, 2.5 carbs, 4 protein for 1 tbsp. that I used. It was pretty good. Very filling!

Not enough - I only packed 1 oz of turkey for lunch and missed all my snacks. The only thing I did right was get in enough fluids and take my vitamins. I just got home from work/hospital to visit a new RNY/exercise and it's 10 pm. Too late to make up anything - I'm tired and going to bed!
