Great post @WhatMeRunning !

I love protein, have no trouble eating jobs if it, feel more full on it, and have much less interest in sugary & starchy foods.

However, anyone with CKD (chronic kidney disease) or who are a recipient of a kidney or liver transplant should definitely consult with their medical team & a renal or liver nutritionist.

I am under strict orders not to go over 1.2 x my wt in kg and to NEVER go over 1.3-4 times. Pre-transplant, they had me restrict protein even more as I was only able to cleanse 9% of normal.

Is it easy to keep my protein this low? No.
But I want my sole kidney to continue to be excellent for as long as possible…

I’m envious of you all who can eat more! Just be sure to ask for a creatinine test to make sure your kidneys are healthy!!

Screens off by 10 pm (no, hubby wanted to watch a show 💕)
Lights pit by 12 AM - planning on it.
Food under: No, used Pass Day 3️⃣
(Resorted (on automatic pilot) to old food behavior for one meal on anniversary of a tragic event) Forgiven. I’m human.
Sodium number is off the charts. I truly cannot eat out or get take out. Saturated fats is too. Luckily protein is at 1.3 times my wt in kg (my very upper limit) whew.

I don’t feel good. I don’t know how I used to eat like this.I just had calf cramps which I ever get anymore. Drinking as much water as I can.

Planning to be in Winners Circle. 9 days to go.

We can stumble and not fall.

Did I exercise at least 20 minutes? I did not. Unless you count "exercising" the brain at trivia tonight (and not very successfully at that either).
Did I track everything? To the best of my ability... had to guesstimate on some things.
Did I stay within calories? Not today.

Thank you, @WhatMeRunning, you've made me think more than I really want to.

I need to do more exercise. I'm aware of this. I truly am. I'm a lazy slug. I know this too. And I miss it on the days I don't do anything. Protein... I have MFP set for 35%, which is 109g. If I use the 0.6 that was mentioned in the article, for my current weight, it should be about 107, so that's close. Still, I seldom reach that amount. If I use the 0.6 for the weight I want to be, that drops the amount to 90. I come a little closer to that. Just did the math and it looks like, for the past month at least, I averaged about 85g per day. Down as low as 50 one day and on one of my really active days, as high as 137.

Have a good one, y'all. I'm going to watch the storm for a bit before I go to bed. Just had a very close lightning strike. Wow!

Yes to all questions.
Pass days: over

Feels good to answer yes for three days in a row ☺️. As for my protein intake, I believe I eat around 60 to 70, I try to reach 100 but I could do it occasionally only. I usually replace most of the carbohydrates to meat, instead of rice or noodles I increase the amount of meat. So, 200 g of meats and 60 g of carb + vegetables. Moreover, whenever I cut snacking, I eat much better.

Goodnight / good morning to you all 💜💛

Exercised but no tracking and likely went over due to bad evening choice.
Choices. Multiple... 9/22 sugar days, 7 pass days. I'm having a headache after a long time and wonder if the sugar last evening has something to do with it.

@WhatMeRunning - what a great topic. I’ve known that protein is important after a workout but I don’t give it much thought beyond that, assuming I’m getting enough. This weekend when I have time I’m going to spend time absorbing all this information and go back through my journal to see how my protein intake has actually been. Thanks for this.
