As I mentioned in a previous blog I'm trying out the new weight loss injection Zepbound. I did my first dose last night before bed. I had some minor nausea, but then I was quickly asleep.
I was warned by the doctor to be careful with how much fat and fiber I eat. Lots of fiber, very little fat.
Unfortunately my poor stressed out husband just got his labs back and they showed his blood sugars are back in the "diabetic" zone. So now is a very good time for both of us to change our ways.
For breakfast I made myself a protein shake. In it was...
1 cup of each:
Orange juice
Oat milk
Frozen mixed berries
1 small banana
2 scoops chocolate protein powder
1 scoop of each:
Metamucil
Raw coco powder
Ground flax
Lastly 1/2 a scoop of Collagen (It makes the shake slimy so I can't use much of it.)
It tastes like a chocolate covered strawberry to me. Not bad at all. Just a bit gritty.
That made 2 pints. I drank one and put the other in the fridge for tomorrow.
With this I'm having "Smooth Move" organic tea for constipation. Yes, herbal tea instead of coffee. I hope all this doesn't give me the opposite problem. Hahah.
I just got a new tattoo, so a lot of protein is important. Same with reducing my calories.
It's chicken salad for dinner. Wish me luck!
