We're so lucky to have you as a part of our "family" here!   It feels so good to know there are folks out there who understand and really care

I had my new food requirements all figured out for today (took me over an hour last night - I do hope this gets simpler with practice LOL) only to remember 1/2 way to work that I had left my morning and afternoon snacks at home in the refrigerator.  I have never snacked before.  You CAN teach an old dog new tricks - it just takes a little longer

So - fortunately I have a small stash at the office and was able to substitute and come out even better than what I had planned.

So here it is
B - 5 wedges of Laughing Cow cheese
      2 slices Wasa Fiber crispbread
Snack - 4 individual jellos
L - Cheddar Broccoli soup
      1 slice Wasa Fiber bread
Snack - Instone choc pudding
D - Crawfish/pork sausage
       Green beans
       Sugar free pickles

975 calories  68g protein    Not perfect but not all that far from 1000 calories.

ooh.... 5 wedges of laughing cow cheese.... I think I'm going to steal your meal plan for tomorrow, HappyLapbander!!! I lurve laughing cow cheese.

As you can tell I like it too!!!   Hadn't tried it until you suggested it so got some last night when I went grocery shopping.  Thanks!  I've had to give up some of my favorite meals - well maybe I won't have to give them up but just figure out what to combine them with so I can eat within the guidelines Dr. Lord's nurse set forth for me.  I can say this, life was a lot simpler when I didn't have to make so many decisions but just ate my 450-550 calories every day!  LOL  I don't have time to even think about getting off track now!    Tell me it does get easier, PLEASE tell me it does get easier!!!!!!!

It sure does.... so easy you can end up eating TOO many calories, once you find those high cal foods you like. I think you're doing it right, though. You're far too intelligent and conciencious of your intake to go wrong.

Thanks (Boy, do I ever have you fooled!  LOL)  Last night I would set down on the couch and begin planning my food only to find out I either didn't know the sugar or carb count so I would get up and go to the kitchen to check it out - must have done that a gazillion million times - I wonder how many calories I burned - suppose that would do for exercise?
