  3. I have made chicken salad with Greek yogurt, apple and celery. I found Joseph’s reduced carb, high protein pita bread at BJs (I think it’s just over $3/20 pcs) and each pita/wrap is only 60 calories. It’s got flax, oat bran and whole wheat flour and tastes good.
  4. This is so weird cos I started feeling like I have a rock on my chest if I eat more than half a cup of soup or more than 1/4 cup of solid food. I don’t hv any issues with all the foods but the quantity is miniscule and definitely e rock goes from chest to tummy and leads to being stuck ?
  5. I hate sweet drinks so bought unflavored whey protein (Unjury, Isopure, etc) mixed with water and broth. Tastes like a weird soup but better than the sweet stuff. If you can’t tolerate whey, try other forms of protein. Good luck.
  6. So glad to hear this. Am 7 weeks out and feeling uninspired being quarantined inside ?

  8. Just looking at the stats on the side under yr profile, I had a bit of a shock and wasn’t sure how you did that ??? I’m going corona-crazy! Sorry, I wasn’t trying to be a smartass, just wanted to know if it was real and if so how....
  9. I don’t like sweet things and found it terribly hard to deal with ready made shakes. I like Premier Protein’s vanilla but do add ice and mix it with an immersion blender. I do add an extra cup of almond milk so it cuts the sweet a bit. I found Unjury and Isopure unflavored whey protein mixed with some water then added to broth for a ‘soup’ a life saver. My local butcher saves his chicken bones for me and I make bone broth from them in a crock pot. Love the Cheesies recommendation. Will go look. Thanks.
