Wednesday's Food Check In

Hey all, what are you eatting today????? Me..... B - oatmeal S - sf hot chocolate with protein powder L - potato soup and cheese sticks S - ?? D - mcdonalds on the run S - ?? Geeee, I'm just not feeling like eatting today. For that matter I've only drunk 20 oz of water and then a glass of ice tea. What's up with that? That's not like me.

It's 3:30 and I haven't had anything to eat yet. Wedneday is my church's "fast day" and we don't eat food until evening. I have been drinking an incredible amount of liquids though - easily 100 ounces thus far. I took out a salmon pattie for supper, so I'll have that with some veggies.

Pre-B: Protein shake Cup o' joe w/ creamer, minimoos and sweet n' low B: 3 slices taylor ham (aka pork roll as in NJ pork roll), 1/3 of an apple SF chocolate bar that someone left me L: Chinese food (insert BIGGEST MISTAKE IN THE WORLD notation there) - had chicken w/ green beans w/o rice. I dumped like crazy for hours! The pain on a scale of 1 to 10 was a solid 4. My abdomen got so bloated my pants felt like they would pop. They hurt. And these pants are loose on me. Even taking a deep breath physically hurt. It isn't all gone but much improved. D: 2 slices provolone, some tasty meatballs hubby made (no sauce) ala Giada. S: Protein shake Think that will do it. If I get hungry some green beans (not Chinese variety this time) Water - 52 oz thus far Vitamins - running behind due to the dumping Exercise - does squirming from the pain count? Kathy

Restaurant Chinese food is pure evil. I have not had any at a restaurant since surgery, but I hear that they use waaaay too much grease and sugar. I make my own these days - just get one of those spice packs at the market and add my own soy sauce, chicken and broccoli. Yummy! I do kinda miss egg rolls, though.... P.S. What are minimoos?
