Eatin' Good....Almost Friday!!

What is this you speak of protein coffee?  OMG! I never even heard of it. Sounds great.  Where would I go to get this, because I'm getting my coat on right now. HA!   Thanks! Lou (~.~)

hey Lou hehe I think they are adding protien powder to thier coffee. I even have my hubby hooked on the unflavored kind in his coffee in the mornings since he hates to eat at 5 am lol. You can use flavored powder as well and it mixes well in the hot coffee=) Gets ya going in more than one way!!
Hope that helps!
Today i start my liquid diet so having protien cofee with you guys this morning!! haha

Hey Lou (you cutie you).  I have to mix my protein with milk and add it slowly to my coffee (if you don't go slow it gets lumpy and grainy).  It really helps me cut down on  sweetner and I don't have to use creamer with it.  The girls on here got me started on it.  It's pretty yummy.

I have such wonderful news to report of yesterday!

I met that precious precious Jeanine and her sweet husband at Golden Corral and that wonderful couple bought my lunch!  When we got up to the counter I said could I just buy a bowl of soup and the lady said the buffet is all they had... so I said well I'll just have a cup of coffee that I couldn't eat enough to pay to get the buffet and in our talking the lady said she could give me the childs price and so we did that.... and boy am I glad I did...... I have not been out to eat since surgery only once and then I just ate a bite off Paul's plate and it worked just fine...

Well I had been having trouble the last two days and was really afraid I would get sick with anything and but I did like someone else told me they did and went to the bar and got what I thought I should eat ..... I had little piles of about 5 kinds of meats and a couple cubes of cheese......that way I could choose what I wanted in my own time.... I set there and in the about an hour and a half I ate some of all of it .... the chicken was a bit too dry but I tolerated the others of it just fine!  It was the first time I had shrimp minus the breading... and had some ****tail shrimp too and I tolerated it so very very well.  I was so thrilled!  But I ate very very slow and chewed it till it would not chew any more.... I had pulled pork and roast beef even it was very moist and tender! I had not had it like that before only deli shaved..... it was fantastic!!!!  aaaaaaand I had three strawberries dipped in Splenda  WONDERFUL!!!!  I am so happy that I do not have something going on with my tummy since I had had trouble two days prior..... I think I forget to slow down and I've already taken a couple of bites before I get my mind wrapped around what I have to do... then I'm already not feeling well....... maybe this will have taught me a lesson!  And do you want to know even better I looked at all that good good food and it didn't even bother me that much that I could not just load up my plate and have all the stuff I would have gotten before surgery!!!!  I really and truly thank the Lord for that!

I got up and walked early so I would be ready when Jeanine called but other than that good news I just told you I missed two doses of calcium, did NOT get in all my water or protein drinks ..... I think that is the first day since surgery that I have not done my routine like I was suppose to that badly but I will be sure and get it today..... it seemed like such a victory at the restaurant that I was not at all upset I failed in the other areas...  Not good on my part but I'm still so very happy it turned out like it did.

I'll get my rear in gear today and do what I'm suppose to.... it seems like if I am not totally focused on my little routine everything falls apart.... I wonder if I will ever get used to this and it be second nature?  I know it won't if I do like I did yesterday! ~tee hee

Peggy.... I know you have surgery today and I'm praying for you.

I agree, Jeanine and her hubby are such sweet people, I truly enjoyed meeting them.  And yay for you on being able to eat at the restaurant.  Doesn't that just make your day?  And I still struggle with the "routine" becoming second nature.  I'm 3 years out and STILL forget everything I've learned at times.  Forget to chew, forget to eat slow, forget...forget...forget.  But that's just me, I'm sure others get the hang much easier.  I do tend to be a little stubborn, that's the German-Indian in me, I guess.  :P
