jessica0728 11 Posted June 29, 2012 K I was wondering how you guys keep your Protein and fluids balanced throughout the day with what we eat? I am not on solids yet I am on full fluids still with yogurt and protein shakes...I am hoping some of you will write like a sample menu for a day? I just want to see if I am doing the best I can to get everything in...I know I can't expect to do it all this early but I just want to know if I am making the most of my day...also what is the latest in the day you guys eat or drink? And lastly what are some Snacks you might keep in your purses/bags? Thanks so much! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unlimited Water It's now 5.10pm in the uk and I am still on the mid pm custard. I am taking it very slowly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
