OwlMom 3 Posted September 27, 2012 Wow! Good luck with the energy thing. If you have a pedometer, maybe you could try to incorporate steps during the day. I used to have a desk job and would go out during lunch and walk through a nearby plant nursery. It was good for me mentally and physically. I am feeling weaker than I was in the beginning. I think it's because I got so tired of the Protein shakes that when I got to mushy food I tried to get all my Protein through food. I just couldn't get it all in. Now I'm trying different Protein Shakes for variety and eating foods that have more protein bang for the bite. I feel like it's two steps forward and one step back. Little by little, it's getting better. Maybe a Saturday morning would work best. Not much, but it might motivate us to do better on our own during the week. This Saturday is bad for me, though. I'll message ArkGirl and maybe you two could meet. If you didn't see earlier, my name's Carol, sleeved 8/31 by Dr. Clayton Frenzel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chellewill16 46 Posted September 28, 2012 I feel the same about the two steps forward one back thing. I'm on puréed this week and I think I'm having the same issue. I'm truly not meeting my Protein goal and I think I'm dehydrated again. Today I'm gonna focus hard on Water. My kidneys are screaming Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
