Well, I had this all typed out and I lost my post :( let me try again.

Last night we went for dinner and looked at puppies at the mall. I'm so tempted to get a puppy pal for my dog. We are going to take our time this time. My pup was an impulse buy the night before I started opti. I couldn't imagine life without her now. She is definitely part of our little family.

Snack - carrots and light peanut butter

Lunch - ham, Creole black beans

Snack - egg, pudding

Dinner - chicken, potatoes, salad

Snack - yogurt, pepperette

Goal - all vits and 3L of water (was a bit short yesterday)

Pups are tough to resist.   Hope you find the right one.

Playing tennis does not sound like a day of rest. Just the thought of it starts my knee aching. I am missing my swimming. There has been something going on everyday this week at lun*****luding today. I am suppose to go to a meting. they gave us a choice of three salads. All were weird and nothing I would eat. I picked the paleo but looking at it again I can not figure out the protein in it just the carbs. I have an Ocean's tuna kit I did not eat so I think I will eat that. At least I know what is in it.

Tonight a meeting. Try not to eat the goodies there. I think I will take some baby bel to eat in case.

Yesterday was a bad eating and drinking day. I was trying to give up wine for a month but I had some last night. It actually helped me face some issues I was having trouble dealing with. I have been having headaches all week and today it is gone. I know this is not the way to deal with problems but maybe I just needed to loosen up.

So today back to eating better. I have been adding shredded wheat to my yogurt to add some fiber. You would think using miralax and benefibre would be enough but not so.

b shredded wheat, yogurt, blueberries

s banana

l Ocean's tuna snack kit

s baby bel

d chicken salad, melba toast, yogurt

Glad the wine helped Pat.

Didn't end up playing tennis. Bocce instead.  Lot easier on the bod.

Just popping in to say hello to you all! I'm doing whole foods and paleo as spring training has begun for race season. Hope you are all well!

Good evening everyone.  My dog is doing ok, the antibiotics have improved her mouth smell, a good sign.  She seems to have a bit more energy, she barked and ran to greet me when I got home, first time she has done that in a long time.  I know that it is not a cure but I am happy that it is making her feel better for now.  I feel like I am coming down with something, nausea when I eat, runny nose.  I am taking extra vitamins but not sure I will be able to fight off getting sick, it seems nearly everyone at work is sick.

b - gnc protein shake with decaf coffee crytals added, xl decaf coffee x 2 throughout the day

s - cucumber slices with old cheddar cheese

l - 1 cup chicken and beef chilli from the freezer

s - apple, diet pepsi

d - 1/2 an octoberfest sausage, 1/2 cup mashed turnip

s - sf orange koolaid, more dinner if I get hungry

all water and vitamins.  Have a nice night everyone.

I love turnip.  Can't buy the pre-cut and peeled here so I don't make it.

Ya, I used to avoid it because it is hard to peel etc.  Now I just take the whole turnip, wrap it in paper towel and cook it in the microwave for 15 minutes.  The skin comes right off once it is cooked and it is ready to eat.  I am never going to cut a turnip again I think!  You might want to flip the turnip halfway through the cooking time for even cooking.  I find turnip super filling, I can only eat maybe 1/3 of a cup and I am full, and it goes well with meat.
