Food Experiments and the fluid issue

Mar 13, 2015

I am still on track but have an issue getting my 80g of protein in. I think I need to make a schedule for eating as currently I do it out of need instead of on schedule. Maybe this habit will help me stay on track with my water intake. 

I am having issues with drinking my 64oz of water. Sometimes my pouch hurts when I drink water or my powerade zero. Nothing else gas this effect on me. If it's really warm or ice cold, it helps but I haven't figured out what works. At some point, I was chewing on tangerine and apples for the liquid and spitting out the pulp. Also, I had sugarfree popcicles but even at sugarfree, you have to watchout for the small carbs.

I made low carb taco bowls with ground turkey. I bought some low carb wheat tortillas and baked them. I could only eat the turkey and lettuce along with some delicious substitutes like greek yogurt instead of sour cream. The fam liked it so it's a keeper.

At least by making things from scratch, I have control over sugar, carbs and sodium. I Google a lot of recipes and make a lot of fun stuff. Hummus, guacamole, verde salsa, citrus talapia, etc. Going to try a pizza crust recipe that calls for eggs and sourcream. From the reviews, it is work a try. You have to bake it but if not done right, the crust could turn out to be eggy. I bought roma tomatoes and lowfat cheese. Wish me luck!
