erieli 0 Posted June 23, 2010 I've been thinking a lot about what my doctor and his staff have told me and I have decided there are going to have to be times to make up my own rules/plan as I go along. This is my first lightbulb moment since surgery. So here is the plan: One of the things I heard from the nurse today at my first visit (since the doctor went out of town) is that I can't have the food I love because Protein is more important. Ok, but i'm a vegetarian, and I wasn't eating protein before because I wasn't finding a lot of ways to get protein. No meat, chicken or fish for me thanks. But if I have Protein powder, and I need to use it anyways, why not put it on the food I love to eat and knock both things out at once? It doesn't always have to be eggs and Gelatin free yogart. So thats my plan. I will eat my good food, and of course watch the calories and carbs ect. while I eat the foods I love. So thats my plan. I'm sure it doesn't sound the best to a lot of people but it is making sense in my head. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
