So true, I will suffer in my tight jeans while I get my act together! They are a good reminder. We've got this!

jerzey,
I needed to hear this--especially the "being gentle with ourselves." Funny thing is, I am so happy and proud to be eating the way that I know that I am supposed to. My clothes getting tighter was my kick in the butt. I had to spend a lot of money to buy clothes when I lost weight, and I refuse to buy clothes in a bigger size again. We can do it!!!

Weight training class last night; tonight I think it will be treadmill and elliptical.
For all you veggie-avoiding sleevers, below for your consideration of some low-calorie, high-fiber, sugar-crave-killing, nutritious, delicious foods:
Mini cucumbers, 1/2 cup - 8 calories!
Arugula, 2 cups - 10 calories!
Cherry tomatoes, 9 large ones - 27 calories!
Walden Farms dijon dressing, 2 tablespoons - 0 calories!
Sugar snap peas, 4 ounces - 15 calories!

And there are more, so many more veggies and dressings like these! :)

Gym tonight. Cardio!
Morning all! It's actually kind of nice in NJ for a change, not so cold and was really sunny earlier:) I've been really trying to eat more mindfully and so far, so good! I survived the weekend without gaining even a pound; which is unusual for me...lol... I'm going to Key West at the end of February, bought a new bathing suit and am determined to wear it proudly! Man, 8 years ago I would have never worried about wearing a bathing suit proudly, I would have stressed over the fact that I had to put one on; my how life changes after bariatric surgery!
B: non-fat plain Oikos Greek yogurt, toasted flax seeds, berries, and small amount of granola
L: 3 ozs. chicken on small side salad w/balsamic/olive oil
D: meatloaf, roasted broccoli, tablespoon of mashed potato that I'm making for my husband
S: Yasso frozen fudge yogurt bar
I hope everyone has a great day!

Just popped this hunk of deliciousness into the crock pot. Is it dinnertime yet? I can't wait!
I'll chime in ... a bit randomly, but nevertheless ....
Breakfast - my usual ... two nonfat lattes and GNC Lean 25 chocolate shake
Lunch - Healthy Choice Korean power bowl (yeah, they're processed frozen meals, but sometimes they fit the bill because they're easy-peasy, nutritious, have lots of protein, veggies and whole grains, and are low-cal)
Dinner - 6 ounces sauteed FRESH shrimp, a cup of sauteed broccolini (with fresh garlic) and a glass of chardonnay
Dessert (coming up later) -- 3 Ak-mak crackers, 1 ounce of Brie, and a sliced Honeycrisp apple
And for those who care, total calories = 1,485, 96 grams of protein, 112 grams of carbs, 60 grams of fat (mostly olive oil and butter)
:)
Thanks for "chiming in", Ann...lol... Love your menus
B: small 2% cottage cheese container w/fresh berries
L: 3-4 ounces of salmon on salad w/cucumbers, green pepper, chick peas; balsamic dressing (2 tbs.)
D: not sure, going to a local club to see a favorite band with hubby and a few great friends. We order a few small appetizers as 2 other ladies are patients also:) We share and 1 dirty martini to get the "party started."
S: might consider the dirty martini my snack:) but no snack as it will be a late night and there's work tomorrow!
Have a great day everyone and I'm considering dancing tonight as a "fitness class", how's that for rationalizing.
1cup of special protein with milk. some chereals and that's it
