Brkft : Shoney's All you Can Eat Morn. Snack : Subway FootLong Dinner: Ryans All you Can Eat Mid-Day Snack: 3 Nanna Splits from Baskin Robbins Supper: Pizza Hut All you Can Eat Oh wait..... that was in my dream. We don't have a Shoney's or Baskin Robbins- Breaks my Heart. Can't stand Ryans and their All the germs you can handle. And our Pizza Hut doesn't have the night time All you can eat. No Brkft. Dinner- Home-Made Veggie Soup Supper- 2 Slices of Little Ceasers Pizza Right now, nothing taste right. So why bother eating !!!

You had me worried there for a minute. Do you know how bad I want to eat the breakfast buffet at Shoneys. I wanna just dive in... Our Ryans turned into Fire Mountain and it is so good. Although I havent been since before my surgery. I just cant see spending big bucks for buffets and not eating enough... I wish you were feeling better. You have been sick for a while now. I do hope it gets better. Bring me some soup cause honey it is COLD outside.

Hey Christine, Sorry about the scare. Trying to liven it up around here some. TY. I feel a lot better than what I have. If I could just get rid of this cough. It is making me angry !!! Shoneys would be great right about now !!! Heck, I'd take the Baskin Robbins also. I have never heard of Fire Mountain though. Its name sounds really good. What all do they have ? Are they like a Ryans, etc. ? Anything has to be better than Ryans. Everytime we eat there, I get sick !!! Look out BathRoom. Honey, that soup is GONE !!! It was great too. The meat in it was a very tender roast, it had tomatos, potatos, corn, green beans, etc. all kinds of veggies in it. I even put in the Veg-All veggies also. And about 2 cups of uncooked Macaronni noodles were thrown in. My crew has to have them noodles in it. Once it was done..... UUUUMMMMM. Cook it in a slow cooker for about 4-6 hours. Which the meat was already cooked, so that is why it was done so quick. Hint: Have Roast & Potatos one day & make soup the next with the left overs.

Now, I was gonna reply to your post that I had gone with you to all those places, but I figured it was already pretty unbelieveable!!! I like Ryan's okay, but EVERYTIME I have ever eaten at Barnhill's I get sick as a dog - it's like what everybody describes as dumping syndrome....It's horrid!!! And it hits BEFORE I leave the restuarant. Never will eat there again!!!! Smoochies ARlies

Hey Andie... Dont know what I would do without that Beef Jerky. Wish I could make it myself but I havent a clue how to. I also like the Wendys chili. It is definatly gonna be on the lunch plate for today. It is like ice outside. You did great on your liquids and on your protein.

I was gone all day and when I'm not home I don't seem to do so good. I did drink a pretty good bit of water though. I'm just gonna have to learn how to do bettter when I'm not home. I get busy and forget to eat. Certainly would not have done that before surgery LOL.

Hey Tator Queen. I see you are at it again. Cant help it, huh... me either. Tators are good! You didnt do too bad. Protein is a little low..... I cant believe thats all you ate. I didnt get any water in yesterday. I have to work on that. To me that is one of the hardest things to make myself do. I have never been a big drinker so drinking that much water is a doozey... Has your weight loss picked up any? Mine is still stuck... I am going to see OB Thursday. I want a new BC -this is getting crazy. Its getting close to lunch time and I am kinda hungry. Cant decide if I want a salad from McDonalds or Chili from Wendys. What you gonna have?
