Joanie's Food Log-Wednesday

Looks like a better day out there already. Going to try to get my walk in tonight before going to my son's high school open house..how I hate those! There may be an addition half mile walk to each of his classes..so that will be a plus! What are YOU eating today? I am running out of groceries...I seriously need to go shopping! B-CC milk,protein pwder=30g protein L-Chicken salad over a green salad w/lite dressing S-1/8c pnuts D-Perdue chicken w/ricotta and tomato sauce Joanie

Hi Joanie! Getting to the end for me on this preop diet. Thank goodness! I'm having: B - cc shake L - veggie soup D - Tuna sandwich S - sugar free popscicle The scale says I've lost 11 pounds, but I'm not sure how that matches with Dr. Aranow's scale. I want to make sure I've lost enough so when I weigh in next Friday, I have a few pounds to spare! Have a good day!

Mornin' I tried something new and it was really good. The Kozy Shack special request no sugar added vanilla pudding. Delicious! For 1/2 cup, 90 cal. 2.5 fat grams, total carbs 13, sugar 4g, protein 3g. B - Isopure protein drink with 8oz vanilla soy milk S - sf popsicle L - some kind of soup D - Isopure protein drink with 8oz carb countdown milk S - Kozy shack pudding if I feel like it. have a great day! terri

I really like their Tapioca Pudding as well - and the chocolate isn't too bad either. I find the Tapioca to be filling as well - so its a great s/f treat! God Bless, Kathy Bilodeau

G'Morning all, I'm completely stressed out so my appetite is wacked out. I'm hoping to remain in controltoday, but we'll see. I usually handle stress better than this, must be a hormonal,full-moon kinda thing. B - Wheat english muffin, coffee S - I brought in 4 frozen shrimp I'll eat when I want at work. L - Leftover turkey ala king, low-fat style D - grilled chix leg 1/4's, garlic mashed potatoe and home made apple sauce made with Splenda. S - Applesauce...umm ummm good. -Stressed out Deb
