Not Sure If I Should Worry
try a sugar free popsicle if you have any on hand. if you are unable to keep any fluids down then that is an issue and needs to be taken care of ASAP. traces of blood in you slime miight be a reason to call your MD but not run to the ED for. If it was vomiting bright red blood and buckets of it then run there.

How Long Are You Out Of Work?
it matters what type of job you do. desk jobs are back within a week. I am a trauma nurse in a large urban emergency room. I was not allowed back to work untill I was able to perform my job 100% including lifting more than 50 pounds. I was given 4 weeks out. Hope this helps

Day 3 And Holy Heartburn

Eggface Protein Ice Cream !
YES !!! The biggest thng is whipping enough air into the product before it goes into the ice cream maker. The more times I make it... the better I get at it and it still tastes good when you start out. My husband even eats it... The only time that I didnt like it was when I trried adding greek yogurt to it.. not my thing

Eating Out?
at olive garden they have grilled salmon and also seafood brodetto (dont eat the bread). look at their menu online. both are the lowest in calories and high in protein. we already know if you eat even half of the portion you are going to be stuffed. enjoy

Sleeved On 4/24
easy on the chili.... pureed carrots were so filling and tasty !!!, try grilling a portabella mushroom and blending it with fat free cream of mushroom soup . top it off with grated parmesean cheese. adds tons of flavor and protein.

Week 4 Stall?
thanks.... I am still at 800 calories for the day and if I eat everything I pack will get 84g of Protein for the day. I missed my mark on carbs and fat. (i used whole milk ricotta). getting all my Water in. I just feel like when I pack my luch I would rather pack extra so I dont go to the cafeteria and really blow it.
