Yes, you remind me that I've got some blueberries I should finish.  Wasn't in the mood for making creamcheese pancakes or PB cookies, so I'm gonna make myself miss them soon so I really should eat the blueberries given how expensive they are.

E 20 mins walk round shops - dropped off some big clothes at the good will and picked up a US size 6 jacket/blazer - yay!!

I've been thinking about planting about 4 blueberry bushes. I'd love to be able to harvest my own. 

Excellent protein number. You're doing great!

Cheeseburgers were so easy...I was feeling lazy. I did get outside to walk yesterday. Twice!

I decided to shake things up for a few days and just focus on protein shakes and not food.  I feel like I need to do something to get the weight loss moving - it was either go back to basics and slowly add back food again, or eat a half dozen Krispy Kremes :)  The definition of insanty is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result - so I'm gonna change things for a bit and see if the results are different.  Ohhh - but I had signed up to do a food testing today, and it turned out it was for steak fries.  I had to eat 1/2 serving or 3 different kinds of steak fries.  It wasn't too bad carb wise (other than carbs almost instantly give me stinky gas), and they paid me $25...LOL

Is this still too low on fat cals n protein? having a hard time getting more in my little sleeve...

Nice Bites but you do need to up the protein a bit. How about a pre-bedtime shake with cream or 1/2 & 1/2?

I can try that  with almond milk though. Pre DS the reflux was so bad if I ate anything after 600 pm I would have acid all night. Now,I have gone back on Nexium at bedtime cause I couldn't stand the acid anymore,so it might not be a problem. You might recall I had to go off dairy pre DS as it was stopping my loss. I added dairy back in 24 day ago and have not lost a pound since. I am 5 weeks out today and have only lost 12#. I expected twice that much. A stall? Maybe. it was at 3 weeks out that I stopped losing. Dairy? Maybe. it was when I started it back that I stopped losing. 

I was hoping the malabsorption would take care of the dairy issue,but I am not sure I am even malasorbing. I have some gas but not the huge loose stools I was expecting. If I didn't take my poop regimen every night I would be totally constipated. I am afraid I am not malabsorbing

Just really don't know what to do.
