What'cha eating Tuesday edition

I'd like some cheese with my whine, please!  I didn't have to do a bowel cleanse before my surgery, Dr Gibbs doesn't require it, but now I have to have the dreaded "test" on Thursday, so clear liquids it is for me for the next two days. So, here's my day.  God love all you pre-ops out there that are doing the liquid diet....you deserve a huge pat on the back! Bkfst:   Tea Snack:   Water Lunch:   Nasty green jello Snack:   Chicken broth Dinner:   More nasty green jello Later, more of the same. I actually COOKED salsa chicken and beans for Gary. There'd better be a load of leftovers in the fridge when I get home Thursday afternoon!!!!!

Goodness Susan.....what are we gonna do with you? And to think that you cooked a meal and was not able to eat it.....kind of makes me hate to have to post what I had today, but here it is....

Breakfast- scrambled egg

Snack- almonds Lunch- 1/4 of a Lean Cuisine Flat Bread sandwich....they are FANTASTIC by the way!! Snack- grapes (about 6) Dinner- turkey and field peas Had a pretty good day. Found that I drank more water than usual today but I was moving a lot so I guess I needed it! Hope everyone has a GREAT Wednesday! Take care!!   Karen

1/2 of 20 ounce protein drink 2 sugar free fudgsicles SOLID MEAL 1 = pinto & cheese 2 sugar free fudgsicles 2nd 1/2 of 20 ounce protein drink SOLID MEAL 2 = Hormel chili w/ beans ...will update rest later (but I will probably have... 2 sugar free fudgsicles? 20 ounces water? apple slices?

I haven't been eating well the last few days...I've had a sinus infection plus both of my kids have been sick.  I've not made bad choices, just no choices at all!  But today was better...actually freaking out a little because I came close to 1200 calories!  I know, I know...now that I'm almost to goal I HAVE to raise my calorie intake, but its HARD to see that number when you've been seeing 800-900 calories for so long.  Here's my day: BEFORE BREAKFAST:  banana BREAKFAST:  1 packet weight control oatmeal w/ 1tsp. fibersure LUNCH:  ham sandwich...1 slice whole grain bread, 1 hamsteak, tsp. light mayo SNACK:  1 cup protein pudding DINNER:  4oz. chicken breast, 1 small corn on cob, less than 1/4 cup mashed taters SNACK:  protein bar BEFORE BED:  8 oz. calorie countdown chocolate milk I also had 10 M&M's throughout the day...I know I know....but hey, the whole point of having this surgery is to be able to live a normal life, right?  Who goes through life without a few M&M's occasionally?  And I did track it on fit day!  Plus, before surgery, I would have eaten the whole bag!
