Lol! I'm in south texas, Corpus Christi. My mom is originally from Wichita Falls, Texas....so I learned it from her. ? She always made them growing up, especially when we lived in upper Michigan for part of my childhood. Super cold winters and super good hot homemade chicken and dumplings. Yum. It's one of my favorites.

My mom ohh so beautiful makes it with fowl chicken and homemade dumplings. Incredible dish i could never cook like that. She is from N.C.

Me either. I thought I was doing good at 20g. I will probably try to drink at least a little more of a protein shake before bed so I might make it to 30g.

Yes and it doesn't help that I was thrown into menopause last year with my Hysterectomy. I have noticed my feeling are hurt way too easily the past couple of days. No tears yet, but Iwouldnt be surprised. My grandson always makes a point to ask me if I am crying yet whenever we are watching a sad movie.

Bodies are changing. I guess it's a part of the process. I'm thankful I'm more happy than grumpy though. ?

Ok. So I got tired of just the tasting of things today. I didn't eat anything of substance at all. Mostly liquids. So, I heated up about 1/8 cup of refried black beans with some low fat cheese. So delicious. But here's where I'm having to learn what my body is telling me. Feels stuck in my throat, no matter how well I chewed it down. I really want to drink some water. I have this weird sensation in my belly. Kind of like when carbonated bubbles are bubbling up, I guess. I don't feel like I'm full or stuffed or anything. Content, which is what I am aiming for but I keep burping though, like I did when I was full of gas in the hospital.

I'm counting down to some liquid.

May 8th sleeved here.. I thought we were to avoid beans for the first year?

Anyone have muscle cramps or spasms? When I stretch out my left foot my muscle lock up and I am getting a charle horse in the side of my ankle lower leg. It is so painful!, this just started tonight and the only way to make it stop is to get up and walk.
