I pulled out the Buffista cookbook la while back for some reason and it's still on the kitchen (my cookbooks are on the bookshelves normally). So I see it there and think of everyone (everyone meaning every Buffista ever).
Yay for good dental results!
I finally went and got my blood drawn yesterday for my mystery bruising. The doctor didn't add a note but I sent him one. It was a CBC blood test and all the results were in the normal range but when I looked at the trends from the last few there is definitely something going on. Some of the results, like platelets are at the very bottom of the normal range and have steadily gone down since last April.
I sent the Dr a message that basically went ..so I looked at my test results and while they were in the normal range some of them were barely in range and the history shows changes, some that look kind of drastic , from the last blood tests. Do you have any idea what is going on ?
Especially because liver disease keeps coming up as a possibile reason with the test results. I keep telling myself to stop Googling all of this and wait for the doctor to respond but it's hard not to worry
Where do you generally get the puff bars, Plei? I’ve only tried from Costco.
The various Town & Country Markets usually have a few flavors. I'm trying to remember where I found the salted caramel ones, and it honestly might have been up at the Edmonds WinCo when we did our occasional run up there to stock up on peanut butter.
My Walmart sells the Puff bars. So if anyone wants to venture to a Walmart. Or stay away
Walmart is partnering with Chatgpt so people can order things directly from chat gpt.
The Puff bars have sorbitol in them and that can cause GI problems for some people. It has for me.
But if it doesn't the Barebell bars are really good . I had one and it tasted good and had the texture of a candy bar. Although the one I had was very light . Not quite a marshmallow texture.

I double checked the coconut and brownie batter Puff bars (those are the ones we have in the kitchen right now), and they only have sugar. I always check for sorbitol (and other sugar alcohols) and artificial sweeteners, because they don't agree with my gastrointestinal system. There are a lot of Puff bar flavors, though, so maybe some others have sorbitol. Or maybe they've changed their ingredients to get rid of it?

The Barebell bars have maltitol in them -- is that easier on your GI system than sorbitol? They also have sucralose, which tastes horrible to me.
Facebook keeps popping up these savory protein bars and I am intrigued. [link]
I'm happy to report Mom's surgery went well and she's recovering nicely.

Those flavors sound yummy!

Great news, Matt! I hope her recovery is quick and uneventful.
Steph it might depend on the Puff .I just looked online and the back of a package
The Barebell went right through me in a bad way. Luckily I was at work and not somewhere without access to a restroom.
I got more tests results back. I didn't know all the tests run . All around the Von Willebrand Factor. And they were high. The Factor 8 activity was high too. So I assume I'll be hearing from my doctor about this.
I'm trying not to stress about the results and just get ready for my vacation and enjoy that
