You always do so great with food!  I wish I could eat more!!! 

Give it time... my new stomach's more than 2 years old.

B- hardboiled egg

L- about 1/2 cup of split pea and ham soup, small glass of milk

S- Chobani bite raspberry with dark chocolate greek yogurt **

D- BBQ chicken

S- protein hot chocolate made with 2% milk (25g)

**I tried this yogurt after hearing people talk about them.  They are a bit carb heavy (13g), but have 8g of protein in a 3.5oz cup.  They are still a bit tangy for my taste, but it sastified my sweet tooth while getting in some protein :)

Enjoy your chinese.  I would love some general tso's chicken and a crab rangoon.  Mmmmm!

Very nice and reasonable Bites. 

I will likely have to hold a grandbaby and share my dinner.  lol

 

I may have mentioned that my appetite has returned.  Now I'm freaking out about gaining weight.  Do you think if I stay low carb I can avoid a regain?

I am getting plenty of protein and almost no carbs.  Today's carbs will come from flourless PB cookies and one Atkins bar.  I may eat an Atkins frozen dinner but they are really low carb.

I am glad I am able to eat again but I don't want to gain back the weight I lost while I was fasting.

I was just thinking today that I should fast for a few days to see if I can lose about 8 pounds but I know I need to walk at least 4 times a day too. I'm not sure there is a way to do this by low carbing without exercise to keep our metabolisms going. I think we have to keep doing both--low carb and light exercise throughout the day. 

I measured my daily walk today.  It is 1.4 miles.  But I only do it once a day.  Of course there is dog training which is totally active and today I did 90 minutes.  So I think I am getting enough exercise.  I don't know what to do, but I have to eat.  I have lost that "can't eat" feeling and have an appetite.  I would like to loose those last darned 5 lbs but I am not optimistic.

I am going to dog train 7 days a week most weeks so maybe that along with the walk will help.  Of course when it is raining I can't walk the dogs but I own a treadmill and I am going to set it up tonight and see if it still works. 

Those last lbs just do not want to leave, do they?

You're doing a lot more than I am. I must get back to my walking.

 

Get the strive pedometer app for your phone. Fun way to start moving more.. We should all be on this app actually.
