i will try to get the fat down.. yes pasta dont bother me ... nope it dont get stunk...  today the scale says 147 pounds....... yeahhhhhh

Welcome back! Good to see you again.  I had a really long day and it's not over yet but at least I have the next three days off. My protein levels today are OFF THE CHARTS... 5:30 am 10 oz coffee 6:15 am 1/3 cup Oatmeal, ½ cup TVP (2 servings) 1 cup soy milk  6:45 am 5 oz coffee  7:00 am 24 oz Drink Mix, Power Edge Caffeinated Berry  8:00 am 1 oz cheese stick, 1 pc ham lunch meat  8:30 am 8 oz coffee  9:00 am medium nectarine  9:30 am 4 oz cooked shrimp w/****tail sauce (about 2T)  10:30 am 12 oz Drink Mix, Hawaiian Punch, Lemon Berry  11:30 am 6 oz cooked chicken breast, 1 cup lettuce, ½ large tomato, Honey Dijon Lite Salad dressing  12:00 pm 12 oz Drink Mix, Hawaiian Punch, Lemon Berry  12:30 pm V-8 Juice 12 oz  1:30 pm 4 oz Dannon Light and Fit, 1/4 cup TVP  1:45 pm 2 SF Cookies  3:00 pm 24 oz Drink Mix, Wylers Kiwi Strawberry  4:00 pm SoBe Protein Cereal Bar  4:30 pm 24 oz Drink Mix, Morning Spark Grapefruit  6:30 pm 4 oz beef chuck steak, 1/2 small baked potato, 1/2 oz low fat sour cream, 1/3 cup canned beets ooo and I just had 3/4 of an ounce of honey barbeque peanuts (something new I saw at the market) If I have anything more at all it will be decaf and hot cocoa..I'm beat. So far 131 oz of liquid. But get this for totals: Calories: 1896 Fat: 52 Carbs: 180 PROTEIN: 180 (yikes. Is that bad?)

probably not. we don't really absorb all the protein we eat anyway, due to the malabsorption of rny. you like that hawaiian punch huh? lol!!

I split that one up and drank half and then the other half later...But I try and mix up the flavors. Hawaiian punch has to be my favorite right after the Morning Spark Grapefruit flavor...Yumo but it's not always available so I don't drink more than one of those a day, if I can help it.

It was a busy day for me, since I just got my daughter back from vacation with her grandparents.  We went all over! Standard disclaimer:  maintaining DSer, gratuitous fat & calories ahead. B - Dunkin Donuts:  bacon/egg/cheese on 1/2 croissant (pitched the other half), lg. iced coffee w/cream & sugar Then we went to the library, where they have a playground.  We hit the playground running, then I sat for a bit and finished up my coffee while Miss Peanut did the jungle gyms.  We explored the library and each got a book (hers is adorable: Diary of a Worm - it's fiction, and really funny!  Mine is "Fearless Fourteen" by Janet Evanovich) L - Pat's Pizzeria - cheesesteak wrap, with most of the wrap torn away - this was a real disappointment.  There wasn't much meat, there was waaaaay too much lettuce, and I couldn't find the cheese.  I complained, got lousy service, and am not ever going back.  Oh, and I think I had about 5 french fries. Then we went to Border's, as I had coupons and birthday money to spend.  I got 2 books, Miss Peanut got one.  Then, the Supermarket for July 4th picnic staples.  Did I mention my supermarket has a Starbucks? S - Starbuck's Venti Breve Quad shot Iced Caffe Mocha with whip Then home to make dinner, plus potato salad & broccoli slaw for tomorrow. D - Hot italian sausage with onions & peppers, wilted baby spinach with garlic & olive oil Then to my brother-in-law's to goof around in his pool.  Then home to make pies for tomorrow (Sour cream apple walnut).
