Almost 100% of routine

After a rough start Tuesday morning... I was determined to get everything in. Well.... seemed difficult since I went back to bed until close to noon after the incident....I decided to make a protein shake with a different kind of powder- thankfully....
I used this whipped vanilla powder and a cup of milk... all in the blender... well it smelled ok... so I thought adding a cup of sugar free vanilla pudding would make it even better.... All I can say is BAD idea.... It was THICK.... The taste was half ok... but the texture was a disaster.... However, it had 38 grams of protein... over half of what I need for the day.... So what did I do? I am so proud of myself... I choked it all down! It took a little over an hour... but it went down!!
I supplemented the rest of protein with cottage cheese and milk... I was a few grams away from 60... Pretty awesome since I have struggled with it. I even got all of my fluids in as well! Oh... and all of my vitamins... I changed the order- I now start with calcium... I find it much easier for some reason! I did miss one dose of Carafate- I am not thrilled about this... BUT I was also cautious with it because of the morning. Oh and i did not get in 3 meals because it was soo late- so I had an extra cup of milk!
Today I am up and have started on the routine... I do need to go to Menards in a bit as well! I am learning to adapt the schedule! I think I will try the chicken soup protein supplement and half of a vanilla Chike for today..... then supplement with milk.
Happy Thanksgiving!
