Morning gang! Internet is down today so trying to post from my phone. Short and sweet.
All is well. I had green beans as my night snack. Lol No crackers in the house is a huge help. Green beans never hurt anyone! I had planned for oatmeal but my tummy was not up to the fiber so I switched plans and felt in control. The planned night snack thing felt much better than the wild west eating at night I had been doing.
QOTD: Every day is Valentines Day! I'm a passionate love hard type person so I enjoy finding some special way to say 'I love you' for the holiday but it isn't a big deal. He wouldn't buy me candy because he knows I can't and don't eat them. In the past cookie delivery was a tradition. Now I think we will just snuggle and drink our evening coffee. Life is good.
Menu: B: Grapes and a cheese stick (out of Greek yogurt but made a fresh batch over night....will strain it tonight and all well be yummy again); L: Noodle bowl (18g proteon, 230 calories...first time trying out...will let you know); D: no clue
Have a great day everyone!

Good morning. I'm feeling a bit better after yesterday's court debacle (which I realize I didn't post about). I had court in the morning, and a 2 hour drive before hand, so I took a protein bar with me. About 10 minutes after eating it, I knew it was a bad idea. Heart palpitations, and shaky hands. I have no other option but to power through, so I walk into the court room and take a seat. I'm number six on calendar and as the Judge is working her way towards my matter I start to get waves of nausea. She calls my case and I make it to the podium all the while hoping that I don't hurl or that the protein bar doesn't decide to leave through another opening (Sorry for the TMI). As soon as we were done, I got out as quickly as I could and made it to the bathroom where EVERY.SINGLE.STALL was occupied. I said to myself "screw it" made it to my car and went home. I had food issues the rest of the day. I'm better today, but still being super cautious with food, limiting myself to 1.0-1.5 oz and taking a LONG TIME to eat that. I have a dr. appt. this afternoon, so yesterday's incident will be high on the list of discussion topics.
DQOTD: No chocolate here. I'm with you on the egg at Easter, though. Though throw in a peanut butter egg for me, please!
My Plan:
B: 1.2 oz tri tip
S: latte with 4 oz fairlife milk
L: 1.0 citrus marinated chicken
from there my plan falls apart. My appt is at 1:30 so it messes up my afternoon eating plan. I usually take a protein bar with me when I have an appt. but after yesterday, no . . . unless my Dr. wants me to be a human science experiment and dump while i'm in his office so his fellows can experience it first hand!
It stinks that you are having so many issues with food! Ugh... I really hope they can get that straightened out!

Ugh that sounds awful. I'm considering a good hurl here, too! I ate a small piece of cake at a work baby shower at lunch. It had a whipped cream topping and strawberries instead of frosting so I thought I could get away with a small piece. Nope. I think it's lactose intolerance. I pretty much want to curl up and DIE. Take it easy today!
