Hi Rebecca,

I'm smiling that you started reading yesterday, and then started breakfast...and had it earlier than usual! That's great!

One of the things to note for breakfast is the amount of protein you need for your weight. Do you know how to calculate that? Another tip is to count dense protein. So you have made a great start! The protein amount for your meal would be a little low for me, so I would need to add some more protein.

It's nice to have you here!

: Good morning. I started reading
: TSATRP yesterday and feel a great
: sense of relief and hope and
: acceptance. My tendency is to rush
: through and skip parts, but I am
: focusing on going slowly. I am
: very happy to find this forum for
: resource and support, and I'm
: grateful.

: I started with step one today. One of
: my favorite breakfast meals is an
: oatmeal yogurt concoction: 1/4 cup
: steel cut oats, 1/3 cup plain full
: fat Greek yogurt, 2 TB flax seeds,
: 1/3 cup non sweetened applesauce,
: cinammon, 1/4 cup of milk or cream
: and 2-3 packets of stevia. I shake
: it up in a jar, leave it in the
: fridge overnight, and have it for
: breakfast in the morning. Usually
: I wait until 1030-1100 to eat it,
: but today I ate it earlier.

: Question: is this meal acceptable?
: Should I make any modifications to
: it?

: Thank you very much! :)
