Back Again & hope to stay
Good morning/afternoon! What a month it has been. Right before Christmas everyone of us had the flu and as soon as that looked as if we made it through, we all caught a cold. Everyone is doing better and I finally feel like my old self, with one exception...My surgery was on November 15th & I have lost 52 pounds. Unbelievable. There were a couple of days I didn't get enough protein but always had my water.
I'm able to eat most things on the soft diet. Eggs bothered me but only for a couple of minutes. Chicken became my worst enemy because all of a sudden it was slimey and yuky! Don't know where that came from but hope it goes away soon. I feel as long as I get a couple of protein shakes in as well as my water, I'm okay.
I want to buy some protein bars but need your help as to what are the good ones.
My family has been so supportive which makes this journey so much easier.
Gabrielle (my adorable granddaughter, I'll post new pics) is absolutely wonderful. She pulls up on anything she can get a grip on and crawls everywhere and gets huffy if you pull her out from where she doesn't belong. Of course, we're baby-proof, but she needs to learn. Hard to believe she is almost 9 months old. All my boys are doing well too. Miles, the 4 year-old who has autism is doing great in school. He says a few words now, and when he wants to will follow directions. We're really hoping for Kindergarten next year.
I'll stop for now. I have so much I want to say and it is so great to be able to talk to those that understand where I'm coming from.
Oh, can anyone suggest a good protein bar? I really need something crunchy to eat.
Blessings to all,
Trudy
I get mine online from www.freshenergybakery.com they are great. some say a little pricey but they have 42 grams of protein in each bar.
they have choc covered ones and the ones i like are like white choc. covering. very good I havent found one i didnt like, When you figure there are 2 bars in each zip locked baggie isnt much more than you pay for those tiny little things at wal mart. and at 42 grams of protein , o sugar and o carbs pretty good buy.
