Eating at work

[tallkt 7]

I start work next week, how does everyone do the shakes on the go, I'm contemplating bringing a magic bullet but there must be other ways. Any good portable foods, I'm going to try cottage cheese today fingers crossed.

I was sleeve April fools day and have lost 20 lbs due to all the fluids

I LOVE my Blender Bottle. I had thought of bringing a bullet with me also but I started using the Blender Bottle and it handles the shakes just fine. Especially the high quality ones that blend up well anyway. If you haven't seen them they are the Water bottles with the little wire ball in them. Its like having a small wire wisk in your cup. It really does blend up the shakes perfectly. Its also very nice because after my first shake I go clean it out and then fill it back up with water and mix in my liquid Vitamin powder. I don't go anywhere without it!

Oh and as far as portable foods go, depending on what stage you are in there are a number of things. I take the vacuum sealed packets of tuna a lot. I love that. I don't mix it but there are fat free things like mayo you can mix in it and I think there are some that are pre made. I also take a hard boiled egg still in the shell most days. Nice built in portable container. Other things like Soups are easy. I take a full can on Monday and put it in a tupperware container and just eat it all week.

I just started soft solids. I bought 4 oz ramekins with lids. last night i made turkey meatloaf, mashed potatoes and canned carrots. I put a little mashed potatoes in bottom, then carrots and meatloaf on top. I just am starting my 4th week. It took me an hour and a half to eat 3.5 oz. of that food (LoL!)

I buy the Premier Protein - chocolate Meal Replacement shakes. I also made myself some cheese Snacks. Got 2% sharp cheddar, sprayed pan with PAM, spread out the shredded cheese and backed until almost overdone - like cheese nips sort of. Pretty good. Also brought sugar free applesauce.

I stocked up on 4oz containers too. I helped portion everything for taking to the office. I am lucky we have a refrigerator so I can keep items handy. Fat Free Yogurt is a great item to have at the office. cheese sticks, I kept a container of Unjury chicken Soup and other Soups in case I needed them. When I went back to the office, I was on one shake a day, I had that one in the morning and I blended it at home and put it in a travel cup. When I got to pureed foods, my favorite was chicken salad with a little cranberry sauce on top, great flavor.

Most folks seem not to like them but I loved the ready to drink Muscle Milk Protein Shakes. I brought them to work. I also brought Laughing Cow cheese wedges, tuna salad or pimento cheese in small containers, and ate all those with 4-8 Special K crackers. I still bring cottage cheese to work, plus almonds and peanuts in small portions. And I eat a raw cucumber every day, peeled and sliced, but I'm further along than you. I also bring nowadays two cheese slices and 10-12 pepperoni slices. And a Quaker Chewy something or the other, but I need the calories and carbs.
