I did take a whey shake today and nobody noticed a thing. I forgot about the protein bars in the book. All I need is the flax seed and I'll go get that tomorrow and make a batch. The hard-boiled egg whites could be tricky, but if I have them cut before hand and in a little container that I could sit on my desk....I bet I could handle that.

I am currently using Spark People to track my macros.......I figured out my percentages and changed my calorie intake manually so it works with this program. It does have a screen that let's you see your percentages for the day and I've basically been doing what you suggested.....playing a bit with my food to get it to hit those numbers. I seem to be eating too much protein and may have to back away a bit.

Thanks so much for those suggestions!!!!
Good luck working on your food and being able to pack it the right way! I use Sparkpeople, too and I love the different features.
You are doing great!
