What are you eating/doing today? (Wednesday)

So fluids - uggh, honestly after 27 days on Opti and now 2 weeks of fluids I want to bite into something and chew chew chew.
I went to the store to get some more soup - yum my favourite (just a note of sarcasm) but hey this is what I signed up for so I really shouldn't be complaining.
I am having some issues with the protein, the two shakes I have really aren't appealing and make me want to gag so I went on the hunt for something different.
I am getting most of my protein in now but it is an all day event, it seem to take forever with shakes. Greek yogurt and pudding seem to be fine.
I keep thinking my pouch is broken because I ate my soup a little fast at lunch and I didn't have an issue mind you it is like 1/4 cup so I hope I wouldn't but still. I just need to be conscious of the time.
I know I am over analyzing everything but after the whole wind up to surgery, managing it after is a different ballgame.

Hi, Alena! It's so great that you're posting here every day!
Things have been so busy with this new job, I never seem to find the time to get on here until later in the day. I plan to run 10K tonight as long as it isn't pouring rain.
I am finding that I'm continuing to snack at night after the long weekend, and this really needs to stop! I want to drop the 2 lbs that I have increased vs. my lowest weight of 160lbs. So I am committing to being much more disciplined from tonight forward.
Here's my eating plan for the day:
B - Greek yogurt with berries, SF syrup and SKinny B cereal.
S - Pure protein bar, 2 turkey pepperettes
L - Chicken cesar salad with LF dressing, hummus with carrots
S - Egg, babybell cheese, peach
D - Ground beef and grilled veggies (basically a beef taco without the shell), SF jello pudding
S - Quest PB cups, SF jello
Totals - 1,634 calories, 92g carbs, 86g fat, 130g protein
Enjoy the rest of the day!
