What did YOU eat today??

Hey yall, Many of us respond every day to Miss Dollys post "What did Y'all eat today". I was thinking that maybe it would be good if we did the same thing on this board. Maybe it would help share ideas for foods and allow us to see what others who had surgery around the same time ate. I know it would be useful for me! What do yall think? Ill start. Today.. I ate.. B- fat free refried beans with melted light jalepeno jack cheese S-protein shake L- protein bar S-3 pita chips with ff cream cheese D- Chicken soup Drank about 50oz of ice tea, 1 cup of decaf coffee, 1 bottle of water, and the milk in my protein shake. With love, Em

Great idea Em! Today I ate... B- cottage cheese with crushed pineapple L- Turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy D- 1/2 baked potatoe with cheese and sour cream Not sure about my liquids though, I don't always keep track, I know though today I didn't drink a lot... Some days are better than others... I plan to have a sf choc chip cookie with a glass of milk for a late night snack... Hope everyone had a great day!! Jo

Hey Jo, I made the mistake of trying the peperidge farm SF choc chip cookies. They are amazing. I had my family hide them!! With love, Em

I'm trying the pillsbury ready to bake ones, for the first time. I'm a little nervous about it, but I don't need a laxative so I think I'm too scared to eat too many. These ones are pricey though so I don't imagine that I'll be getting them very often. God Bless! Jo

B - Keto protein shake L - Crystal Light D - Few bites of chicken topped with some salsa No snacks. Snacks are evil. Took all my vits and had my bloodwork today. Yay. This was for yesterday . lol My brain is still not fully awake .

B-2 oz egg beaters (southwestern blend) 1 oz Del Monte Carb delight peaches S-Protein Shake...Nectar L-2 oz steamed chicken/shrimp 1 oz steamed oriental veggies S-My 'morning' batch of vitamins D-Will be Lean Gormet 3 cheese chicken which I will eat 2 oz of the chicken and 1 oz of the veggies S-SF popcycles I drink crystal light constantly so don't even keep track on amout of liquids...unless it's getting close to another endo time. My surgeon recommended that I avoid all carbs...potatoes, cookies, ect. They help to slow down weight loss progress..and I don't need any help with that especially since my thyroid quit. One idea for those who love their refried beans... Using low-fat shredded cheese, place small amounts in a circle on wax paper. Bake at 350 degree for 10 minutes. Allow to cool well. 1 oz makes about 3 'crackers'. Very 'legal', very all protein! Top with 3/4 oz refried beans, and 1/4 oz shredded cheese. Nuke for 15 seconds and YUMMY!

Beans have alot of carbs in them. Gassy too. But those cheese things. I love those ! I top mine with hot sauce. Feels like you are almost doing something you aren't supposed to

Hi Em I feel like we are doing the Lean Cuisine commercial! LOL Today I had: B- Protein shake w/1% milk S- 2 small pieces of cheese and 4 oz apple sauce L- 1/2 cup of my homemade stuffing S- a small handful of almonds D- 1/2 cup tiny frozen shrimp w/ketchup/horsradish ****tail sauce Give or take 64 oz of water w/Crystal Light

great idea!! water coffee water sesame sticks protein shake (nectar) water cheese cubes (6) water protein shake (1/2) meat (beefw/gravy) .25 cup rice about 2 tablespoons will have hot tea (peach) soon (c: Glad you are doing great!!!

Hey Yall, Its amazing how anti carb people tend to be. I dont encourage people to go out and eat a bagel but our brains need some carbs to function. Carbs like those found in beans and veggies are good carbs. Anyways, not flaming anyone just wanted to put in my 2 cents. Feel free to keep this going.. here is what I ate today.. B-1/2 of a small wendys chili L- fat free refried beans and shredded light jalepeno jack cheese S- protein shake D- small ground sirloin patty grilled with 1 slice of cheddar cheese Hope yall have a wonderful day!! With love, Em
