Feel better! Have you tried Fit Frappe Chai Protein Lattes? They are my favorite go-to protein on a cold day.

Good morning everyone!
I sat with my son at 6am this morning. We talked about baseball, golf, what-not. They wanted pancakes for b=fast. I ate an egg. It was just another normal morning. For the first time in years, we did no****ch the news.
That's great that you've hit all of your marks on time. I went to my 6 month yesterday also, great overall. I miss the energy of a big city. I cook all of our meals in cast iron pans. I wonder if that is what has kept my iron a tad high?
I have not slept until 7am in about 10 years. Lucky! But, then again, I have not stayed up past 11 in about the same amount of time. Hmmm. I am a cat person. There! I said it. My family dog, is a dog, because I was out voted. Ah Democracy!!
B: 1 egg
L: 3.5 oz steak
D: Tilapia and broccoli
S: ?
My surgeon wanted me to increase to 1000 calories a day. since I'm 50 pounds from goal, I am only going up to 800.
Have a safe day everyone.

So glad that you were able to give the kids a normal family morning. So hard to do when there is so much trauma and grief in your neighborhood.
I can't stay up past 11, either anymore. I work in education and our days start before 7 and I have over an hour commute. It's trained me to be a morning person. Fine for weekdays but annoying as hell on weekends. Thank you, NyQuil!

Aw hang in there. I'm finally on the other side of this awful cold, and really hope you are feeling better soon! *hugs*
I wanted to share something that I make about once a week...Eat some daily. I'm 9 years out RNY and am doing pretty good. I will get a 32 oz container of plain Greek yogurt. I will take 1/3 of the container and put it in another sealable container...That a spoon can fit in. To that new container I will put in a small container of Greek yogurt with fruit in side. The problem is the ones with fruit puree have high fructose corn syrup...But that is where the flavor comes from. I then will add whatever fresh fruits are in the kitchen...grapes, blueberries, strawberries, bananas. This will last me about a week...Good eats!! Brian

Great tip! I eat the Fage fruit cups about once a week as a treat. I swear the cherry ones taste like cherry cheesecake. Yum. But I've never made my own. Do you purée the fruit?
This day has been wonky so food my typical eating schedule is off:
S: string cheese
L: candy cane protein shake (recipe from dashingdish.com- LOVED IT! made half and it was a good size)
S: hard boiled egg
D: SkinnyTaste Cilantro Lime Shrimp
S: ?
Now to keep cleaning!
