Sipping on protein shakes to help with my hunger.
Last nights little attempt at semi solids was considered too soon so to sate the hunger my nutritionist said up to 3 times a day I can use the protein shake for the hunger but to stay on the clear liquids until my appointment on Thursday. *sigh*
Not what I wanted to hear of course. None of us would, especially since by the time of my appointment I will be almost to week two. BUT I do need to follow their advice. They are the experts. But hey I'm happy with a protein shake because ITS DIFFERENT THAN BROTH!!!
So this morning I will try sipping on a protein shake and see how long that will last me. Not guzzle or drink like I normally would but SIP slowly, as slow as I can until I'm full. Remember my stomach is now teeny tiny so a whole protein shake would probably overflow my stomach and I'm not looking to gain everything back. Control and will power is the name of the game here. I know once I start on the actually semi solids and then move up and up levels of food I will be ok, this first stage is just the toughest, and that has been affirmed by many people on my forums. I have to remember my end goal here. HEALTHY and WEIGHT LESS!
Well I have a few errands to run before a big storm is suppose to hit us. I'm feeling great though after a great sleep and looking forward to today. *Have I mentioned yet that this whole waking before noon when I don't have to thing is new for me? My body just wants to now, I LOVE IT!*
Til Next Time!
