I'm eating, how about you? Monday

Morning one and all

It's Monday, start of a new week and hopefully a new mindset. We'll see. I had planned to go and join the gym today, but have to wait for the FedEx and UPS guys to bring Gary's new camera equipment. They require signatures and it's expensive stuff, so I don't dare leave until they get here. Drat! Now I'm stuck in the house, but hopefully the projects I have planned will keep me from grazing.

Yesterday:

1 slice thin bacon, 1 slice double fiber bread, egg
1/4 of the chicken ruben sand from Sat's dinner
apple
vegetarian chili, 1 slice beer bread
applesauce w/ lf granola.

Okay, how's your day going to be?

Hi Connie,

According to my Fitday.com reports, over the last two months I've averaged 87 grams of protein a day. My doc/nut both say 60-80 a day, but I really strive for 80 being the LEAST amount I get in a day. Now that I have my plastics scheduled for January, I plan on increasing that to 80-100 a day.

Yes Susan I figured you must be at about 80. I think I am eating enough as my numbers are really good right now. I am just curious as to what others recomendations are.

Hugs....connie d

I also strive for 80 gr of protein a day  I am usually pretty close.  If I find I am not I will have a protein drink that has 23 gr in it.  If I start my day with a portein bar or drink I have an easier time sticking to my food plan.  My nutritionist also says 60-80.
