Red Light; Green Light

First day back to work today and it felt like I was playing the child's game, Red Light (wait 30 minutes,eat,wait 30 minutes); Green Light, (sip, sip, sip!) and trying to work! My head is swimming!

I am trying to find my routine: sip, sip, sip you need 64 oz, but stop 30 mins prior-eat slow-wait 30 mins after eating, drink your protein- need 80 grams, but don't take your Calcium within 30 mins of dairy, take your multi Vitamin twice a day but not close to your calcium, start introducing soft foods. I can't get it all in?

I was so out of sync, when I got home my husband had boiled some chicken for dinner. I felt bad because I drank a Protein shake on the way home trying to catch up. I asked him to give me a few moments because of the protein but mindlessly kept sipping realizing once I got my serving, oh wait, I have to wait 30 minutes before I can eat!

I know it's not that difficult, many of you are doing it but I was frustrated today just not finding the rhythm of it all today. Any suggestions on how to get it all in? Every time my boss came over I had a drink to my mouth. I feel like coming up with a gadget to come up with hands free sipping but o,yeah no straws. Welcome to my new life:-) and btw I am loving my sleeve!

Sorry but I must correct myself: it's the multi vit. That you keep away from dairy not the calcium. I just rechecked my sheet from NUT.
