Fridays Plan

I had a fabulous 5 mos visit with my NUT and Surgeon yesterday.  Both boosted my confidence thru the roof.  My NUT said "I make no recommendations, you are doing fabulous.  You certainly are a poster child for RNY" - Wow!  I was walking on air when I left ...  I have lost 60% of my body weight for a total of 85lbs.  BMI went from 42 to 30.  Yippee! - I know I owe much of my success to this forum, fitday, therapy and of course the surgery itself.  The only missing link seems to be the support group meetings.  I must make them a priority!

Todays plan:

Jazzercise.  The past week and a half I slacked due to company etc.

B- Cottage cheese W/pineapple
S- String Cheese
L- Shrimp and sweet potatoe
S- Kashi crackers
D- Chicken and vegg

Record in Fitday.. Get all my vities in and drink, drink, drink!

Cathy, you are doing great, and look absolutely fabulous!!!   Your plan looks delicious!! :-) 

I have had a so so week, but hanging in there.  What I have struggled with the most is wanting comfort food because I am not feeling the greatest.  It is good though that I do not bring it into work and that for the most part there is nothing there but peanut butter (PB2 is just not working for me this week!)

My plan goes as follows for today:

Breakfast:  Greek yogurt with pineapple
Snack:  Apple with PB2 (I will try reallllyyy hard)
Lunch:  Turkey soup  (mmm homemade)
Snack:  Kashi crackers and cheese
Dinner:  Steak tip and salad.

I am leaving my house at 8:00 this morning, and not getting home until 10 ish, so it will be a long day for me.  I have packed some protein chips and bars too. 

I will drink, drink, drink.

Thank you Martha.  Hope you are feeling better soon!... What  works for me regarding the comfort food and not feeling well is I make myself a cup of tea sounds wierd but it gives me something to put in my mouth and sometimes it's enough to distract me for a while.  Give it a try!

I love tea, and actually that has been working for me also.  It is especially comforting with a cold.  At least with a cold, which I believe has now blossomed into a sinus infection, I can get drugs!!!!  This is my first cold in three years....just being a baby :-)
