Menus and Miles Tuesday Feb. 3rd

I usually try to wait 45 minutes after eating food, but if I'm just drinking liquids I don't wait anytime before drinking something else.  I am usually drinking decaf coffee, lemon tea water or something all day unless I have just eaten.

You don't wait after drinking a Protein Drink?

No I never wait after a protein drink to drink something else.  I wonder if we are suppose to...

I've been reading about them and it says and on Livingston and several other sites that it takes 1.5 hours to absorb 8-15 grams. It depends what kind it is and if it's mixed in milk.  Isolate mixed in water is the faster.

We missed you but glad the play was a hit!!!

Hi Roz!  I'm REALLY trying with my clean eating... I have to get down for my son's fiance's bridal shower March 8th.  I haven't totally decarbed yet so I'm feeling hungry when I know I'm not.

B- coffee x2

L - leftover Fajita (no tortilla) w/grilled onions and green peppers.  Salsa, guacamole and sour cream. (I'm going to get at least 3 meals out of this)

S - almonds

S - protein shake with unsweetened almond milk

D - either the rest of the fajita or I hit the restaurant for something healthy.  I'm still in FL and the restaurant here seems to have more 'bar" type of food.  Carby/breaded.  Not sure what I'll do yet.

water:  doing ok - could be better. 

I thought you were heading home on Saturday. 

Sounds like a Plan!!!   I love Bridal Showers and Weddings.  I miss those days and all of the planning.

Yea I WAS going to go home after a week, but decided sunshine, sand and warm(er) weather were still needed ;).  I'm heading back either Fri or Sat, depending on the weather. 

I'm going to try and get some protein drinks in.  Eating all of this food makes me crave more food.  I know we were told not to drink 30 minutes after eating.  How long do you think I should hold off before drinking to wash my bladder out.

Gee - not sure, especially if your bladder could get irritated.  I had heard as far out as we are, 45 minutes to an hour.  I don't always pay attention to that and still try to stick with at least 30 minutes.  I'd say just do what feels right to you.
