    What was your favorite NSV from yesterday?
    Is it something you've experienced in the past or is it something you'd like to have as a future goal?

    Today I am trying oats bananas and berries for breakfast instead of my usual huel milkshake.. I want to see how long this fills me up.. I did this to decrease my bf calories from 400 to around 300

    I just finished at around 9 am I will let you know when I feel hungry again and have my second meal 😊

    @IsraaQ Did you have any protein with your oats? Maybe that would help.

    I find that adding protein to my oats and to my fruit helps a lot in prevention the sugar crash and onset of hunger quickly after eating. @IsraaQ & @jmu1965 Worth a try?

    Awesome NSVs, congrats to all!

    Apr 16: Tracked and I only went over by the cranberry juice. That's an improvement over Friday and Saturday so I'll consider today a success. However I didnt exercise today: I had a bad night and the day was busy: hosted a brunch for our daughter before we went to a musical play. The recipe I chose for brunch wasn't too bad in calories: Baked Blueberry French Toast with Struessal Topping. It was nice to have a special day that took us outside of our usual routine.

    Add a form of protein to it, remove the banana, and increase the berries to give you the 300.

    So glad to know your surgery went well and was a success Susan 💛 Being on an IV drip of saline causes quite a bit of water retention. Take good care of yourself as your body heals.

    Walking along the creek bed path today with the pups it felt like spring is on the way. Got home to a “special weather statement” alert — snowstorm on the way in. This winter is interminable. 🫤

    Tracked it all an right on base calories.

    I totally agree with @jmu1965 protien really helps reduce hunger. May be worth adding either greek yougurt chia seed pb2 powder cottage cheese or protien powder to oats @IsraaQ
