Day two was much smoother than day 1, but there are definitely kinks I need to work out. Making 3 different dinners was definitely not fun. I also need to figure out how to get all the water in when I am not supposed to drink 30 min before or 2 hours after a meal. Seems nearly impossible to me.
My next mission is to try to find something I can use in my coffee other than rice milk, because that just didn't cut it this morning...blech...too watery! I need something creamy....
I want to say how grateful I am for the help I am getting from other wf, df etc friends for all the tips and tricks. Especially Krista...I text her for salad dressing help and she texts me right back and next thing I know I am having an amazing garlic dill dressing on my salad for lunch! I so appreciate it!
I emailed my doc today with a bunch of questions about things like sweetener, protein with my fruit in the morning, can I have goat cheese (conflicting info in handouts), and stuff like that. I'll let you know how I make out.
One thing I notice is that I feel like I am just snacking and not having a "meal". I know that will change when I am more comfortable and I find more recipes, but it is kind of scattered right now...
It's late and I'm getting tired, so let me post my menu for the day and regroup :)
