How easily we forget the rules!

I think I found the source of my belly pain.   I am drinking too much at once in an effort to get all of the protein and water in that the diet progression says I should.   Duh.   It also says don't force it if you feel full.  

It is so weird how old habits kick in sometimes, isn't it?  The rules regarding drinking that many of us have always have been told is "sip, sip, sip...."  When you aren't used to doing it, it is hard to remember!  You're doing great...!  :)

thanks for the encouragement!   ginny

Good For You !!!!!   Isn't it strange - we haven't listened to our bodies for so long, it's a novel concept for us   But you're off and running now  

Thanks for sharing - it's a reminder to us all

Have a fine BOTT day

Exactly, it is about listening to my body.  In the meantime, I am going to go look for the powdered egg whites to see if I can boost the protein intake.  My hair is thin enough.  I don't want to lose any of it!

I also managed to get two good walks in yesterday.   Getting out of the house, even in the rain, helped.

It's not fair that our gets thin when we don't!

You might check out the organic foods section in your grocery - here many of the foods they have a higher in protein than regular foods.  Also, health food stores are a good place to shop - just need to read the labels.

Wished you lived near me as I have access to a couple of lines of food that are high protein - but I'm sure you'll be able to find what you need there.

Excuxe the typo - that should read -= It's not fair that our hair gets thin when we don''t.  Sorry about that, Virginia

the powdered egg whites were an easy find.   My local grocery store still carries them.
