I'm gonna have to start calling you Saint Gina with the sustained carbing ;-)

DH roasted the chicken today - I didn't on the basis that it doesn't come in a foil tray (I don't touch raw meat - great for a DSer, right).

Today was a quiet day and I just popped out to the shops at lunch time, then had a snooze on the sofa this afternoon - great all in all 

B Decaff protein coffee	30
S Parma ham	10
L Chicken casserole	30
S Cheese	20
D Oven roast chicken w gravy - yummy	30
Protein:	120
F 72+
V All in, inc 6 batches of calcium, bedtime iron, copper, vit C & strontium batches pending

 

Hmmm...I wonder if my DH would start doing the cooking if I went on strike?  Probably, but not much I could actually eat.

Good job on your Bites!  : )

 

BITES:

BF: vegetarian nutmeat ( really gone off eggs)

L: Canned salmon with lettuce, dill pickes, tomato, olives

D: homemade burger patty with cheese, veggies, no bun

Snacks: celery

VITES: all done apart from an iron tablet

EXERCITES:

45 minute walk with dog; hour at gym doing treadmill, x-trainer, bike, weight machines

Your Bites sound great.

What kind of iron are you taking? Are taking enough? I had to take 300mg a day of carbonyl iron to keep my iron levels from tanking.

 

Thanks!  I take Ferrous Fumarate 310mg twice a day, once in the morning, and once at night,  It says on the box it is equivalent to elemental iron 100 mg so I guess I am getting equivalent to elemental iron 200 mg a day.  my bloods show a good iron level so it seems to be good!!!

Perfect. I kept seeing 1 iron tablet and had to ask.  ; )

Absolutely, no problem!!!  :-)

Hi Gina,
Long weekend but I'm not ready to go back to work. Oh, well.
Friends talking about doing th Daniel fast. I looked at it, but I don't think it would be safe for me.

Looking forward to getting my lab results back.

B: bacon, protein shake
L: cheese nachos and guacamole
S: protein coffee
D: DD is fixing chilli

V: one batch left
F: ok
E: laundry, climbing stairs at the basketball game, nap

Never heard of the Daniel fast. Paleo fasts, I've heard of. 

It's going to be a busy week for me. Way too much being crammed into one week at work and with extras outside of work. Calling to get my iron labs today to see if my ferritin has come down any.

Well, here we go!
