What are you eating today (Friday)?
My food plan today is:
B: protein latte
S: baked oatmeal w/ fruit & nuts
S: egg beater & mushroom scramble
L: smoked turkey & provolone roll-up
S: trail mix
S: cashews
D: venison steak, cucumber salad
S: almond protein balls
I had a bite of noodles last night and it didn't work any better for me as a sleevester than it did as a bandster. Which is just as well.
I hardly dare say it for fear of jinxing it, but I think the iron supplement is helping already. If it's just a placebo effect, so be it. So looking forward (except for the part about going out in the pouring rain) to this morning's Cardio Blast class.
Have a great day!

It uses regular oats, though I suppose you could use quick cooking oats. The problem with the little packets of instant oatmeal is that so overprocessed and full of sugar & chemicals. With the baked oatmeal you can control what's in there.

Jean,
Oh how I love cucumber salad regardless of how it's made...YUM! Not sure what I will be eating today, but I will try to catch your posts next week to try to stay on track and eat right.
I know for dinner hubby and I will go out tonight, but I will try to keep it healthy with a salad and protein.

Revision surgery to AP small lap band *11/13/2012*, due to large hiatal hernia. I am hopeful about continuing my band journey uneventful and successful. I loved what my old band did for me and I am looking forward for my new band to Keep my weight down
What's your favorite way to make cucumber salad?
We have 2 favorite versions, one with cider vinegar and a little Truvia and the other with rice wine vinegar & a splash each of sesame oil and soy sauce.
I'm using up the last cucumber of the year from our own garden.
