Chuckle....went out and bought some today. It's senior citizen discount day.

Can you glance over my day? I'm actually at goal and not sure if I'm eating appropriately.

530 double scoop protein shake
830 protein shake
11 turkey/bacon/cheese/mayo roll up
1140 big serving of cheesecake greek yogurt
leftover chicken w cheesey rice probably 3/4 cup
two more protein shake

walked 2.5 miles
double cheeseburger
piece of toast w two eggs, cheese, bacon, mayo

and I want something snacky, probably a little chocolate.

If the scale isn't messing with you, you're golden. Looks like you're getting plenty of protein and limiting your carbs. Have some dark chocolate.   

Hello everyone. 
A stomach virus has been going around.  I've been feeling iffy, but it could just be post-nasal drip. (I hope!  I don't want to vomit like my housemate is doing today.)

B- Double protein coffee
     Couple bites of Little Debbie Oatmeal cake
L - none yet - planning on Julian bread toast when I get home. (assuming my stomach will accept this as a peace offering.)
D - ???  maybe greek yogurt with SF jello cheesecake mix?
S - planning on another protein shake just so I reach the 100 gram mark even if I can't eat more today.
     handful of trail mix

Vites - AM & noon batches done.
Exercites -  none yet.
Fluids - 50 oz water so far.

I have a question for your popcorn lovers - how do you make it?  I have a microwave popper but wasn't sure if I should melt butter and then pour over popcorn or just put chunks of butter on top and let it melt itself.
Not planning on this until my stomach is better, but want to know for future reference.

I hope you stay well. Ugh...don't want to think about getting sick.

As far as popcorn goes, I can eat a lot of it if I let myself. I didn't eat it the first year but now I have a little snack size bag once or twice a day. I like the butter flavored. If I'm really ambitious at home, I'll pop some and pour melted butter over top.

had my 2 yr post-op doctor's appt today.  all went well.  labs continue to be great.
