Good morning Ginny and all to post,

Hi Linda! It's important that you get all your fluid in, especially with recovering from last weeks issues! I would try and add another protein shake in there if you aren't really enjoying food at the moment. 48 is pretty low for protein.
The meat challenge is that you eat nothing but meat for 5 days. It is designed to help those that have let carbs creep into their diet kick them to curb. Back to basics! Quite often it jump starts the scale as well. Dense protein fills you up and keeps you satisfied longer so should also help lower the calories for the week. Check out the RNY board, there is a separate menu thread this week for AMAW / CAMAW participants. CAMAW is Critters and Meat all Week. This allows you to have yogurt, cheese, and cream in your coffee, basically anything that comes from a critter.
Take it easy!
As per Ginny's suggestion (thank you), added half a cup of cottage cheese and 1/4 protein bar. Protein now at 68 grams, carbs: 47, calories: 767.
I always appreciate suggestions; that's why I post here and it keeps me accountable while I'm learning.

Hi Ginnny and All!
Today is my last day of this part of my life. I have my "birthday" tomorrow! Bag is packed, everything is ready, except perhaps my family. Today is getting the floors swept and mopped, spending time with my friends and family. Tonight I am getting a pre-surg blessing and I am hoping to sleep well before I have to leave in the morning. Wishful thinking on my part but hey, why not?
Opti all day for the LAST TIME!

Good morning Ginny. Nice menu and yes we need some sun.
I usually eat the same yogurt all the time. I always but 0% with no fruit or other additives. I was in Loblaws and decided to try a couple that were on sale. The SKYR was great, would buy again. However the Skotidakis I am finding really bitter. I will not be buying that again.
Out to a meeting tonight
b greek yogurt, raspberries, granola
l chicken with mustard sauce and leeks, yogurt
s celery, laughing cow
d cod, cabbage salad
