Day 5: happy

Today was a good day. Although I woke up feeling like total crap: headache, had nightmares all night, overall aching... But it turned out to be a good day!

I did shakes today. I've decided shake day is my favourite! I swapped my afternoon snack with my lunch so that I get two portions of shake at once and stay full til I get home and have my specialty: chicken broth with shredded cheese. It's become an inside joke. 

I felt good today. I was a bit tired and sleepy but I blame that on going to bed late and my body still catching up on very much needed rest from the move. I had my shake this morning and then kept my cheese portion for when I got to work. I looked forward to my first break to have my crunchy salad from work (see below) and my favourite grapes and cheese. That made me last all afternoon until my supper (lunch break) at work where I had both portions of shake. And I got home and felt hungry. I ate my soup and now I'm ready for bed! I'm thinking I'm going to do shake days most days. I almost wish I didn't spend so much money on Protilife...

Here is what I ate today in details:

Breakfast:
-1 shake (used the one with added protein) with 500ml skim milk

Snack:
-1 portion of cheese

Lunch:
-1 portion salad consisting of spinach, red cabbage, cucumber and tomato with lemon juice

Meeting snack:
-1 portion of grapes and cheese

Late afternoon:
-2 portions of shake mixed with 473ml container of 2% milk

Supper:
-my cheese soup made with chicken broth and 1 portion of low-fat mozzarella, shredded

I just loved how happy I was when I brought up my salad and grapes to my desk! I was excited! I'll have to plan on making my own as it will end up costing a fortune but I love that it's my go-to snack at work!

Hoping tomorrow is a good day also. Can't believe almost a whole week is already over! Funny thing that happened... I had a nightmare about my surgery. In my dream I was having a panic attack and I was really anxious, almost freaking out. My friend from work had the same dream! So weird... 

I'm looking forward to tomorrow! I'm thinking shake day again tomorrow!!!
