I am such a creature of habit, If it works why fix it, right? ANSWER WRONG
So i went into to the doc for a check in, i have gotten into the habit of getting all my protein from supplements such as shakes, bars, drinks, etc. My nutrionalist told me to stop doing that and to start eating my protein instead, makes so much sense not even sure why I didnt think of it myself. Also realizing how quickly 1000 calories go during the day, even while eating healthy and staying away from junk.
I found an app that helps me track everything on my phone, started last friday, we shall see if this helps me get off this platue......

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
I eat plenty of protein, but I also like convenience of bars and shakes, especially for breakfast.

My surgeon tells me I am NEVER to eat protein bars.......and she wants me to eat at least 3 protein shakes per day and at the very most have 1 meal per day and it should only be a couple bites.........I am almost 4 months out of surgery.
