Joanie's Food Log-Wednesday

I am getting bloodwork today--so I am fasting until then. My four month post op appt with Dr.Aranow is next week. Kids are off from school tomorrow--my day off. I planned my massage (GC) for tomorrow--but will reschedule it for a day that is less hectic--maybe NEXT Thursday. Ok--here is the plan for today. B-cottage cheese w/pineapple S-protein drink L-grilled chicken over a salad w/lite dressing S-Momentum bar D-?????????? No idea! Joanie

Happy Wednesday to all, the weekend is coming...... B= oatmeal (I have been on a kick with this) s= banana L= chicken and 2 tbls of rice s= apple d= veggie lasagna s= 5 cheese cubes and wheat thins Water, water, water, Have a great day!!!! Carmen

Carmen- Veggie Lasagna sounds great! Do you make it yourself? Also--is today your one year anniversary?? Congratulations! You look marvelous...we need a post about how your past year has been. Inspire us! Hugs, Joanie

Yes it is my 1 year today!!!!!!!!!!!! Time goes so fast !!!!!!!!!!! I have to say I have had a great year! I am one of the lucky ones that did not have problems. The only problem I did have was last week I wasn't taking my vitamins when I was suppose to and I started to feel very tired and run down. Now that I am on track agian I feel great!! I still feel fat at times and this is something that I have to work on. I've lost a 110lbs so I am nowhere close to being fat. It's funny how your mind plays "tricks" with you. I do have to say it is the best choice I made and I love the improved me!!!!!!!! As for the lasagna it is homemade!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I watch everything that I intake into my body and it is all fresh. I feel that if I went to these steps (surgery) to improve my life I need to change every part of my life. There is just so much that I can say, hey maybe I'll put it in a book!! I will be going to the Nov 20th dinner so I can't wait to meet everyone from the board. I love reading all the post and thoughts! Have a great day!!!!! Carmen

Congratulations on your 1st re-birthday! You look great and are an inspiration! I cannot wait to meet you! Carmen

Thank you Carmen!!!!!!!!!! I can't wait to meet you!!!! See you on the 20th! Carmen

Today is a quiet day for me. Get off at 4 so hopefully I can get a little done around the house tonight. I sisn't get anything done over the weekend and I work late Mon/Tues. I do have a sore throat, but otherwise feel fine, hopefully it goes away soon! B- 1/4 egg beaters (cheese and chives) small cup of coffee after I got to work S- protein shake L- Tuna salad S- 1/2 protein bar D- Chicken w/ sour cream and salsa (stealing another idea from Joanie) Have a great day everyone!
