I work for myself, and sometimes that means really long days. This morning I headed out thinking I'd eat my Protein bar from my purse for Breakfast. Whoops, no Protein Bar. I was crazy busy and stopped for Water a couple of times, but didn't find anything at either stop that I felt okay with eating. At 2pm, I had some family crap come up (you know how it goes) that left me pretty upset and food went out of my head totally.

By 5:30, I was home and I was a blubbering, ready to keel over and die, practically suicidal, mess. It wasn't until 7pm that I realized I hadn't eaten all day. By then, I could barely manage half a piece of chicken. However, once it kicked in, I started feeling like ME again.

Moral of the story: ALWAYS stick to your schedule and eat. I discovered today that, although I don't feel hunger, I am totally insane when I don't fuel my body. Shame on me for letting it happen.

I have re-stocked my protein bar supply in my purse.

So glad you were able to choke down the chicken. I've felt like this both before and after surgery, and you're are right, the best thing you can do is to fuel your body. Glad you are back in action!

So sorry Lissa!

I do get hungry, but if I'm busy sometimes I ignore it and it goes away quick. Thank goodness I haven't gone all day yet. Glad you are back on an even keel and thanks for the warning! I'm nuts enough without throwing anything extra in the mix :-)

I can say that is why I am an adict of CLICK protein espresso. I get my coffee first thing it is warm so nice on the am tummy and It has protein.

I was so far behind today that I didn't even turn on my coffee maker! I do add protein powder to my decaf coffee usually. I now have an emergency supply of protein bars and a partial can of Click in the car for days like today. Here's hoping I don't have to use it anytime soon!

Reading your posts...what is CLICK?....how much protein and how can you use it?

Lissa sounds like you had a rough day...saying a prayeryouhave a great day tomorrow!

I get insane when I don't eat. Today was a really low carb day and it affected my speech. It really sucked to not get the right pronunciation. Blahhhhhhhh. Oh my timg is looser. Lol

Those are the days I stop at the grocery store for a nice chicken breast from the deli.. Nce and safe..

Sorry you had such a hard day..Hope tomorrow is much better!!!

I was going to ask the same thing but I found it. It is a brand of coffee flavored Protein drinks. http://drinkclick.com/

D'OH!!! Not good.

Something similar happened to me today. I had my shake for Breakfast and then I went to work. I got in my car around 4pm and realized I didn't have anything for lunch. And I barely drank anything. I rushed home and ate a sugar free Popsicle and a string cheese stick. :/

Will have to investigate this "Click"!!

Does Click have caffeine? The website sounded like it did and I didn't see a decaf option. Did I miss it? I have to be on decaf for awhile, maybe forever....I can't remember.....sigh.....

I'm sorry you had a terrible day. You're right though, you need to focus on getting your Protein in above all. Take care of yourself. Great idea to put an emergency supply in the car and you're purse.

Hope tomorrow is better.

Oh no!!!! I do that often..
