This part will be a repeat for those that know me - I do not like grocery shopping, meal planning, or cooking. Some folks do - I definitely do not. That's the main reason I chose NutriSystem as my eating plan. Box o' food shows up, counselors do not bother me, and I eat.
The imaging center called today and scheduled my uptake test. What I didn't know is that I have to go in for the pill or shot then 24 hours later go back for the actual scan. I thought my doctor would prescribe the pill.
The first visit is 2 weeks from tomorrow.
So I went grocery shopping today. I got everything I wanted except chicken. I can always get it later if I really want to. But I can only have 5 oz. of meat max a day. I'm going to look at the canned chicken, also research it online, to see if I can get that instead of fresh chicken.
Tonight I had 1/3 cup egg whites (equivalent to 2 large eggs), red seedless grapes, and steamed zuchini and yellow squash. Dessert will be a mango. The egg whites I microwaved for a minute and they turned out wonderfully fluffy! I'm still nibbling at the squash and grapes.
I have unsalted peanut butter to go with my apple for 1 of my snacks tomorrow.
What I'm doing is using the flex meals of NutriSystem to determine how many power fuels and how many smart carbs per meal to eat. Veggies - I still have to consume 4 servings of those.
I'm able to eat oatmeal, but the thing I read didn't say whether 'pure' oatmeal or the packaged, flavor stuff.
I'm going to be eating a lot of egg whites! :-)
