    Breaking up protein?

    I also drink the ispoure Protein. I have one scoop earlier in the day and the other half of the serving later on in the day. I split it up because it helps to curb my appetite. How are the shakology shakes? I thought about trying them in the past.
  2. Basically everything I eat I record it in an app on my phone. For some reason yesterday I just went overboard during dinner. I really was just craving like I was going through compulsive eating again. I really wanted a slice of chocolate cake lol. The first time I had ever craved sweets since surgery. I guess the tortilla shell was satisfying my carb craving. I have pcos and my menstrual usually never comes. But I do get very hormonal with or without the period - bloating, serious cravings. I felt it coming on, but I was suprised that the sleeve didn't stop me in my tracks while I indulged. I worry about this and what this means going forward.
  3. I think I should drink more liquids. I havent reached 64 oz a day yet but I'm working on it.
  4. Yesterday has been weighing on my mind all night. My husband had asked me to make him tacos for dinner. No problem. A few days prior I had been cleared to eat regular food. I thought I would be able to make myself a taco with soft shell. To my suprise I was able to eat the whole thing. Maybe an hour or less I was hungry or craving again and I was able to eat another. After a while I ate again but just the meat, no shell because it dawned on me finally to look at the nutritional facts on the box giving me a rude awakening. I don't know how I was able to eat so much. How could my stomach hold so much food only 4 weeks out. By the end of the day my scale went up almost 2 lbs. That was all I ate all day though. I had meals in the form of Protein drinks and juiced greens. Also I feel a bit hormonal and I feel like I am going through PMS. I have pcos. Is this normal?
