Monica you crack me up, lol. I don't want to know which kinky act broke his heel. I am not a good maid of any kind. If someone barks an order at me, without the requisite please, I ignore. DH has learned through the years that kindness and courtesy goes a long way with me.
The PM was to Monica M.
Megs if you are reading this, let us know how you are doing, please.

Hello there,

S - Poached egg
L - 1/2 can Tuna in water with Salsa
S - slice roast beef
D - 3 oz poached chicken breast salad with Tomato, pickle and cottage cheese
S - slice of cheese.
All water and Vitamins.
according to MFP numbers should be.
Cal - 615
carbs - 27
Protein - 92
Hi Corrie, I get the PC plain 0% fat SKYR yogurt and add SF flavouring like ED Smith apricot jam or some of the Jordon Skinny Syrups. The PC plain 0% has 21g protein per serving, but I can't eat a whole serving. Sometimes I will add chia seeds, walnuts or hemp hearts and let it sit overnight in the fridge. It helps to keep things moving if you know what I mean, lol.
Your menu looks good, and tasty.

Thanks for checking up on me CC and Monica :)
I had an upper GI scope yesterday and they found an ulcer. This is relatively good news as we can treat it. I'm still having pain attacks, even on a liquid diet, but hopefully the medications will allow the ulcer to start healing :)
I just saw my midwife and my care is going to be transferred to an OB. I'm a bit sad about that but I knew it was a possibility. Baby is doing well, but may be a bit small. They will keep an eye on it.
Now I'm just taking it meal by meal to see what sits okay. Lots of protein shakes and pureed soup!! DH has been taking good care of me. I think the three day hospital stay was a bit of a wake up call for him. I'm just glad to be home now with him and the puppies!!
I'm so glad that they found out what was causing the pain. Give Baby Thor or Thorilina, lol whatever the doc says you can have. Do you have to give up your midwife, can't you have both a midwife and an OB? Only the best for this baby. Tell DH he has to spoil you, or he will have to deal with me.

The doc didn't give any dietary restrictions at this point, so it seems like trial and error during the healing process. Baby Thor (sex still unknown ;) is very active with a good heartbeat, so hopefully I can catch up on food/weight over the next couple weeks. I got weighed today and I'm literally at the exact weight I was when I got pregnant. But all my blood work is good, so that was their main concern.
I can't have both if my care is formally transferred because the midwife wouldn't receive payment per the Ontario system (so lovely). I checked today and she might be able to do post-partum care, depending on how things go.
DH spent Wednesday evening, most of Thursday, and half of Friday with me at the hospital. He only had to leave to take care of the puppies. He also has been awesome about trying to make ulcer friendly food for us. I will let him know he will be in trouble lol!!
Maybe Baby Thor would like Mac and Cheese with some diced chicken breast in it. I can't believe I'm giving this advice on a Obesity Support forum, but even more so, I can't believe I got you to say Baby Thor, roflmao.
