Do you use a heat stable protein? i thought most protein powders lose their effectiveness once heated? Which ones do you use?

I was on the road all day yesterday and had a struggle to eat well.

I had the fage & kashi cereal for breakfast as always.

Lunch was a western - but with only the bottom bread and not even all of one piece.. later I had some mixed raw veggies with 'dip' of low fat ranch dressing.

three baked lays chips- Geof was munching from a bag and I had three. I had to make a concerted effort to stop at the three, though.

We came home and I was feeling completely uninterested in eating I had 1 ounce of the chipotle cheese.

Around 8:30 or 9, I decided I had to eat *something* so I had my fage with kashi again.

Less than 1000 calories.

Today is not going much better, though it's early. I just do NOT feel like eating or even drinking.. I forced myself to eat breakfast.

Here's my info for today, Feb 19. I am 8 1/2 months out.

My choices were so-so today. I'm having gall bladder problems, and meat/fish seems to be making me hurt more. The carby stuff isn't bothering me at all, so I may have to go a little heavier on them until I get this sucker taken out. Or, I'll just survive on yogurt and protein drinks...whatever works.


Breakfast:
1 container Oikos Organic 0% Fat Greek Yogurt Vanilla


Lunch:
1.25 oz Jarlsberg Light Swiss Cheese
1/2 Arnold Select Sandwich Thins Multi-grain
2 T. Sabra Roasted Red Pepper Hummus


Afternoon snack:
1 bag Orville Redenbacher's 100 Calorie Mini Bags


Dinner:
2 oz. Tilapia Fillets
1/4 cup Goya Yellow Rice


Evening snack:
Hot protein drink, consisting of water and:
2 scoops Optimum Nutrition Any Whey Protein Powder
1 T. Hershey's Cocoa Powder, Natural Unsweetened
2 T. DaVinci Hazelnut Syrup- Sugar Free
1 packet General Food International On The Go Hazelnut Cappuccino (sugar Free)

1 Edy's Fruit Bars: No Sugar Added



Totals:
798 calories
18g fat

88g carbs
2g sugar
11g fiber
79g protein

Nah, they're actually pretty good for you, and have lots of protein. One of my favorite breakfast is 3 of those, and a boiled egg. Yummy-licous!
