Thanksgiving accountability

Breakfast none Lunch cottage cheese with dice pears Dinner 2 TBS yams 2 TBS green beans Couple bites of turkey with gravy 1 sliver of punkin pie cheesecake made with splenda. Need more fluids. Pretty happy about my food tonight. Even though my dad said.."you are gonna be one of the people who stretch out your stomach and this will be all for nothing" no worries...he never has anything nice to say.

Hey Deb B- oatmeal L- 3 bites of turkey, 1 bite of yams, 1 bite of stuffing, half a deviled egg, 1 bite of baked beans, and a taste of pumpkin pie D- leftover turkey with melted cheese on top Didnt do good with water today so far 45 ozs need to do better I am gonna try to get in some more before bedtime. Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving Hugs Mary

Happy Thanksgiving to all!!! B--Egg with turkey chorizo L & D---turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, yams, & corn bread I had a just one mini bite of everything except turkey which I had 3 bites, then I started to feel really full and sick. I still don't feel too good...I think I didn't chew a piece of turkey enough & it feels stuck... I MISS PIGGING OUT!!!!!!

B Atkins protien shake S Lite yogert L Cotage cheese D 2 TBS stuffung with gravy, a baby spone each of greenbeans, yams and pumpkin pie. Water not enough areound 40 oz

B - Hot tea L- 2 ozs. mashed potatoes D - Yogurt Did not do well today at all and didn't do well yesterday as well. Pouchy is real grouchy so I'm really watching it. Maybe tomorrow will be better. I really think taking all my meds fills up my pouch and food becomes hard to do. Maybe I'm wrong but it sure feels like the pills fill me up and just sit there. I drink hot tea but it doesn't always work. I'll be so happy when I get off some of these meds. Fran

Hi Fran...I thought I was the only one who got full with the pills...

I'm so glad to hear that someone else may experience the same thing. It's 12:20 a.m. here and I've still got three more to take and probably won't get them all in. It's such a drag! (I shouldn't complain). Fran

Fran, My meds fill me up as well!

breakfast-none lunch-1/4 cup chopped walnuts, 4 mushroom slices, 2 baby toasts (like melba) w/salmon spread dinner-3 or 4 bites of turkey, 1 bite of green bean salad, 1 bite sweet potatoes with tiny pat of butter(yuck), 2 small bites of fresh cranberries w/splenda, 4 spoonfulls of veggie soup (about 1 hr before dinner), a very small salad (OMG it was sooo good), 1 asparagus stalk (very well cooked) dessert-1 piece baklava, 2 bites pumpkin pie made with splenda (didn't eat crust) eaten about 1.5 hours after dinner. water-not nearly enough. had less than a glass of wine after dessert. I'm pretty happy with my food intake for the day. The bakalava was the worst thing I ate, and it was a small piece. I was afraid it might make me dump, but I was totally fine. The wine was for family toasts "what are we thankful for" type thing. Sheryl

Hey hon, you did fantastic. Sorry your Dad was being such a bummer. I find that their generation can be that way -- they forget the "if you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all" addage! You are doing great and this is definitely not "all for nothing". He will eat those words for Thanksgiving next year! Here's my intake: Breakfast: 1 eggbeater and a spoonful of corned beef has (didn't care for either one so I gave it to my son) Lunch: 1 oz cheese Dinner: a small piece of turkey with gravy, one spoonful of spanish rice (yum), spoonful of mashed up yams with a DOT of cranberry sauce and about 2 small spoonfuls of the yummy pumpkin cheesecake from splenda.com (didn't touch the crust) Snack: 2 YUMMY strawberries! 2 squares of watermelon and 1 oz of cheese OH and I took a sip of my friend Maria's wine (I stopped by her sister's house on my way home... that's where I ate the two yummy strawberries)!
