Eatin' Good....What the dickens?????

Ok, so first off....I DO NOT like wind.  I don't like the sound, the roaring, anything!  And it has done nothing but blow for days!!  Then today we leave for church and it's a balmy 60 degrees and when it's time to head home it has dropped to 39 and continuing to drop!  Yikes!!  I am now officially frozen...lol.  And of course it is now sleeting....blech.

The damage....

Outta bed....coffee (no time for protein today)

At church...evil leftover graduation cake....curses

Lunch...insides of a fajita taco salad, mostly steak and cheese, some chips w/white cheese dip

Later...1 oz nuts, 2 oz cheese

That's probably it...I really don't want to eat because of the evil cake but I do need more protein.  Maybe I'll try a shake or something.  I sure don't need anymore carbs!!  Bu****er and vits look good and I am planning on staying home tomorrow so I will be able to get back on track.

How are you all doing?  Does this cold wind trigger anybody else?  Any ideas on how to deal with the temptations of the season?  My idea is I try to keep it out of the house....if it's here, I WILL eat it.  Last week was proof!!

Post away!

Not doing so good today...Did good yesterday or at least I was making progress I though...but today..I cant keep anything in....
I reminds me of the slim fast days...this sucks!!
I just keep trying to put it in and woooosh out it goes...lol
Maybe tomorrow will be a better day...will see. My appt. with Dr. H is Tues so if it keeps up I will ask him. I dont think that its the flu, because I dont have the symptoms of that. But I will keep going, I didnt make it this far for nothing...
Breakfast: Water
Snack: Water w/cyrstal light
Lunch: Water
Dinner: Broth
Snack: Ice pop...cold stll bothers me but thought maybe this might help

Love and Hugs to all

Cor it isnt the flu it is just normal...you are talking about going potty right

just think you cant have a formed stool there is nothing there to make it formed

it is all liquid...I did that for the first two weeks and then it totally straightened up , well not really it went the oppisiot  way ....i was constipated untill i was getting enough water and vegetable stool softner with laxitive in me...

how many oz of fluid are you up to now?   did you get the On protein powder i sent you?   Jan

Jan

I was going to tell you Doc. put me on 2 peri - colace Bedtime and Miralax laxitive 17gms in liquid @ bedtime you may want to try that stuff it works .  I tried just 1 peri - colace last night to maybe form just a little bit more i will see how that goes today .
 
But all i can tell ya i am a new woman Plus I have had a lot of prayer going on My hubby has been praying like crazy . Me too I was a little scared.

Love Karen

jan,
 
just letting you know that the 1 pericolace worked out real good and also forgot to tell ya that Doc also told me just to do benifiber 2 teas. 1 x am not telling you what to do just letting ya know it is working down this way anything that will work I want to hear about it forsure that is no fun .

Love Karen

Yep kiddo....like Jan said you will have days like this...I actually still do.  Then sometimes I will be so constipated so I flip flop.  Remember, Dr. H. rearranged your insides so everything is in rebellion.  You just keep on doing what you're doing and you'll be ok.  Keep drinking, even tho it whooshes, because you can't get dehydrated.

Love you and hang in there...

Oh my gosh is it ever cold outside. Here in good old sedalia it is 10 with a wind chill of -7. I think winter  has arrived. Glad I went for my walk this morning when it was 65...

here is what today was like.

Breakfast:   hot chocolate protein

lunch:  1 egg with 2 slices of bacon and 2 multigrain crackers

snack: 2 protein balls

dinner: 1/2 cup of mushroom soup with 4 multigrain crackers

snack:  2 protein balls

another hot chocolate protein

all vitamins in. water is 64 oz and protein is 103 gr. which I don't really like to get this much protein..

Does anyone know how many calories the protein balls have? They are just 2 good..

Well its bedtime..see ya tomorrow...

Hello Beverly...

You had another good day!  I love the protein balls and I think everybody makes them different.  There are a few websites that will help you figure out the grams but I just wrote down what I put in mine and then divided that by how many I got out of the mix.  You just need to each ingredient and the specific amounts.  It made my head hurt but it helped me know what I was eating.

Have a great day and STAY WARM!!!

Brrrrrrr.....

I WILL walk inside today!  Ice out there.  I don't like to do that but I'm not an unreasonable woman either! ~tee hee

I was like Deb.... nothing wanted to stay down yesterday... and after going to the party and doing so well.  Oh well like Deb said today is a new day and we will see what happens.

At the end of the day I finally got shrimp and 2 string cheeses to stay down eating it over the coarse of a couple of hours....

Vits and water good... it was so so so windy when I went out to walk but warm so it was nice.... I kind of like wind unless it's going to mess my hair up! ~ha

Suggestions on how to get thru the holidays.... man I sure don't know... since this is my first holiday I'm wondering how it will all play out... I just can't help but think I'm not doing "right" by not going ALL out like I always have... I just have to get my mind wrapped around some things and it seems difficult.  In years before I would have already had a least a dozen "recipes" in the freezer waiting for my girls to get home. 

Well Miss Peg I hope you do get to stay in .... as the song says, "Baby it's cold outside...." ~tee hee

In my mind I'm thinking it is a day for grilled cheese sandwiches and potato soup! ~ ha  My mom made that alot in the winter when we were kids....

Blessings to you today!

Bec

Hi ya Bec~a~doodle!

I so understand having a bad day after a really good one....it's like your pouch has to remind you who is in charge!  That's why I named mine Oscar the Grouch (yeah, I stole that from Sesame Street!).  He still reminds me that he rules the roost!

I think you are going to get thru this time just fine.  You've already made a change by only making one sweet each.  And I so understand about thinking you're not doing something right by not having all that stuff on hand....not for you but for everybody else.  I tried to be a good wifey and made my hubby chex mix and ending up eating too much of it.  Next time it goes to work with him...I just can't have it here.

Make sure you stay in and stay warm....and I want to thank you for your prayers for me....I now have a friend who needs a friend and I'm praying I can help her thru this time.

Love you dear friend
