Today's food plan

B: Protien shake on way to work, 1 egg, cheese sausage breakfast taco

No snack - not hungry! :-)

L: Spinach salad w/ chicken (Trying to get more potassium w/o bananas)

S: Bistro side salad (bought for lunch, but going to have for late snack)

D: 1 lean hamburger patty, cheese, mini cucumbers (2-3)

have you try to make a mineral rich water? I use that.  It has potassium and magnesium.. (it also helps with constipation). 

I add some stevia to taste. I mix one package into 2 servings.. You can find that on line or in most health food stores. Sometimes they sell that as individual pockets so you can try it..

Serving Size 1 Packet (4.0 g)

I do drink a multivitium drink that has 400 mg of potassium.  That seems to help. But it's something to keep in mind . . .

Good Morning Botts

I joined the Mayo Clinic diet on the web for tracking food.  Between all the different diets I have been on this summer I am down 11 lbs. since mid June.  Their diet uses rules, behavior changes and generally healthy diet.  The food/exercise trackers are accurate, but they charge $4 a week.  I figure I am worth it.  They want me to eat 4 veggies (or more) each day and at least 3 fruits.  All carbs are high fiber and they want 30 gms of fiber a day, 90 gms of protein, 75 calories of sweets/alcohol limit, healthy fats and lean protein and dairy. They want 8 glasses of water (not including coffee) so I am doing well with the water challenge.  Snacks are only fruits and veggies so this is a change for me, but it works.  I do read all your posts and am happy we are all losing this summer.  Take care, Tri
