What's On Your Menu Today?

[jerzeygirl]

Good Monday Morning! It's a really cool day here in NJ, and it's a blue-skyed wonder

B: usual
S: apple
L: salad w/4 ozs. tuna, feta cheese & onion
S: 1/2 quest protein bar or premeir protein drink
D: not quite sure as I'm going to a local support group and returning a pair of shoes afterward. Probably either a turkey/cheese sandwich on 45 calorie Sara Lee bread w/lettuce/tomato, or pb & j on the same bread
S: 1/2 cup skim milk
I am attempting to limit my "carb" grazing at night. I might, however; eat some cereal w/the milk. Depends on what I eat for dinner.
Hope everyone had a great weekend,and an even better week.

Went to a conference this weekend and did pretty good. Was disappointed about football Sat but that is life in the SEC, altho I was rooting for Auburn.

B - figs, prosciutto and toast
L - chili, cornbread
D - Going to eat with friends, will probably get grilled tilapia and veggies and crème brulee for dessert - I am saving room for that!

I'm 5 months post op. Here's what I ate/ will eat today:

B: 1/2 cup low fat cottage cheese with 1/2 cup chopped fresh strawberries and raspberries
S: 1.5 tablespoons of cream of wheat which yielded about 1/2 cup after adding hot water
L: Lean lasagna with meat sauce
S: 2 almond cookies and coffee, late afternoon I will have a Dannon light and fit greek yogurt
D: some sort of high protein meat or beans and a string cheese
Sugar free popsicle for desert because I always get a sweet tooth before bedtime

I've been getting scared because this kind of looks like what I used to be able to eat pre-sleeve however I was never satisfied. I'm actually satisfied with my portions now which I think is how the sleeve has helped me the most.

Reading what you just posted give me some comfort regarding what I'm eating throughout the day. I feel like I'm always eating! But it's not "grazing" or "mindless eating"... I try and eat frequently to keep me from binging at my "main" meals like lunch and dinner. Thanks for posting on here

Hello.

B: coffee, crustless quiche, grapes
L: chicken taco soup, w/shredded cheddar cheese
D: dunno, out for a friends b-day, Taco Tuesday, so prob a chicken taco and a glass of sangria

side note-today is my surgery anniversary. I didn't make my goal of losing 100 lbs, but I am close, 97. I take full responsibility as I've not been as careful and dilligent as I used to be. So onward and downward. I've still got about 40 lbs to lose, so I WILL get there, eventually. Just gotta get my shit goether, LOL

That's awesome Jill!

[jerzeygirl]

Lee, I had to chuckle when I read your post about having leftovers for lunch and dinner. I was just talking with a co-worker and said eating out is so much less expensive now. I order an entree and it lasts 3 times; at least Either that, or my husband gets the leftovers for dinner.

[St.Michael]

Yay Jill!!

L- Popeye chicken breast stripped of its yummy coating..lol
D- Pork carnitas.
S- SF Jello

[PipperMarrow]

Congratulations Jill! That is sooooooooo Awesome! Finally got computer fixed! Also, I feel like I eat all the time too, not mindless either and small amounts. Every four hours or so if I do not eat, I feel a little sick or like an ache in my stomach. After I eat it goes away. I wish it wouldn't so I could go longer.

Today:
1/2 egg and cheese omelet
6 Turkey Meatballs with one string cheese
Sugar Free Pudding *everyone around me was eating candy bars that someone was selling, I HAD to have the pudding*
Me and my dog Simone ate more meatballs
If I get that feeling in my stomach later I will have a protein shake

Have a great night everyone!
