oatmeal. Well, "love" is a tad to strong of a term. I can tolerate oatmeal now. I get about 8-10 grams of Protein from it in the morning and it holds me over until lunch.

What foods do you now like/love/tolerate since joining band-dom?

If you are needing a mix up on oatmeal try egg white oatmeal - it's scrumptious (in my opinion)

Cook oatmeal with Water like normal - when the oatmeal is almost done cooking add as much egg whites to the oatmeal as you want - cook the egg whites in the oatmeal - add 2 pkts of stevia, ground cinnamon and raisins :)

Hmm, that is a good way to get more Protein in...maybe I'll give it a try! Thanks!

I'm on a scallop kick. They are 17 g of Protein for 4 ounces and super quick to cook which is a great lunch takes no time to cook n I can warm in the microwave which is good cause I can not tolerate reheated food so lunch options need to be freshly made. N I have switched my snack to a Protein Bar I love the new direction bars from nyu no Quest bars are good. I try to get as much protein as I can in. In a pinch ill drink an Isopure :)

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
