Hi Pam,
I know, I know. I always say that I think I eat worse since I got my sleeve. Sometimes, I just don't have the appetite or desire to eat.

[kenson]

Congratulations Kenson! That's great!

Thank you DesrtGal,
Congratulations to you too!!!

Every year, I get the coughing disease! Was hoping I'd escape its wrath this year, but my chest is sounding bubbly....ugh. 3 day weekend...gonna sleep for 72 hours!

i've been crazy at work, and haven't had a chance to check in here, but i've been good the last few days with planning my meals.

today:

Breakfast: 1 piece turkey sausage with cheese and 4 grape tomatoes
Lunch (ate early because of my meeting times) 1/2 of a leftover baked pork chop with two bites of zucchini noodles w parmesan
Snack: baked whole grain chicken finger with 1 oz of gouda cheese and 1/2 of a pickle
Snack 2: (before gym) P3 Protein pack (cheese cubes, turkey and almonds) I can't finish it, so i usually eat more of the meat and nuts, but we'll see!
Dinner: homemade meatballs with spicy tomato sauce - i'm making spinach and cheese mini ravioli to go with for my husband, so i might have 1-2 of those as well.

and probably a protein shake as an evening snack or 1/2 of a protein shake mixed with coffee.

Morning all, wishing I was off today but I did have Friday off; so I'm greedy

B: usual, yogurt nonfat plain Greek, granola, berries
L: salad w/chipotle salmon packet, green peppers, radishes, chick peas
D: leftover Mexican fajita chicken and portabella mushrooms, had it for dinner Saturday at a Mexican restaurant and lots of leftovers. Thinking a low carb wrap or salad. We shall see!
S: Yasso chocolate fudge bar

Hope everyone has a great MLK day!

B 1.5 oz of beef jerky
L 1 oz of beef jerky

Normally those would both be at 2 oz and I would of had a scoop of Isoflex protein powder in here for a snack but feeling a bit full today for some reason.

[jerzeygirl]

Sleevengoteven, that's not a lot of food... Are you getting in your liquids and protein? I would consider that "meal" food a snack. Looks like you've dropped lots of weight already, continued success; but please make sure you're getting in that protein, etc.

Yeah some days the protein can be a struggle. One those days I just take 2 servings of isoflex that gets me an 54 there. most times a eat right at 2 oz and pretty much only eat protein. most days I hit 70-90 grams of protein.
