Wow! I have not been around for a while. Why? I have just been way too busy. I am taking two short-term classes, and they are keeping me very busy - I go two days per week, along with homework and reading the other days. I can usually do a little at work during my down time, but that has also been very busy lately. I have also been adding in some exercise. So what has been suffering? You guessed it! My eating. It hasn't been ALL bad, but some animal products have snuck in. Time to reevaluate and do some planning.
So, I have decided NOT to reorder the PPM Jumpstart meals. Why? They come in a pack of 10 or 20, but you are not able to choose which ones. There are a couple that I just cannot stand (Bourbon Vegetables and New England Chowder), and I do not think I should have to buy these just to get the good ones. And there are very god ones, such as Thai Drunk Noodles, Spaghetti and Veggie Balls, Japanese Curry, and my favorite: Kale Peanut Bowl. These are the ones I would order if able to pick my options. So, planning is in order so that I can have good compliant meals for my lunch.
Partner has been doing dialysis a few weeks now and labs are looking better. Poor thing has to do this every four hours, and it really cuts into work and home life. She will get a machine soon and it will only be a nighttime thing, but until then she is doing 6am, 10am, 2pm, 6pm, and before bed. It is a process of filling and draining, and not always both. Each time take 20-40 minutes. It is doable but not preferable. Oh well. Between her routine and mine, we have become busy people.
