In Response To: Re: New and Full of Hope ()

Thanks for the feedback, Mosaic. I also questioned whether the yogurt would leave me satisfied so I included an egg (on the side) with the shake. The yogurt is listed with acceptable proteins in YLD. I haven't had that particular breakfast yet so I'll have to see if I can tolerate it. I also question whether protein powder will be satisfying. I'll keep you posted. Thanks for the info on the fruit.

Egg substitute "Egg Beaters" is basically the white of the egg with the yolk removed. It still is high in protein but doesn't have the fat. It's quite satisfying in an omelet as long as I include at least one whole egg. What do you have for breakfast?

Thanks for the feedback and encouragement. It is crucial for me right now.

: I found the questions that were handy
: for me to ask myself were - Have I
: got enough protein for my
: weight... enough grams? do I think
: I have enough brown in there, do I
: feel satisfied?

: its a good question about the
: fruit... no, its not one of our
: browns. Fine to have though!
: Vegetables the same - not browns.
: you can learn more about browns in
: step 5 list. :h10)

: yogurt I dont count as a 'dense'
: protein - the dense ones are those
: one could hold in ones
: hand....though to be fair the
: Greek type has more protein than
: most but I would only use that as
: a top-up extra.

: and of course I am devoted to
: within-the-hour :h7) thats really
: important for me.

: I dont know what egg substitute is ?
: :h6) but I dont worry about eggs
: anymore as they have lost that old
