What are you eating/doing today? (Thursday)
Good morning.
I slept until the alarm went off at 6, so that's happy news! Did my first set of hill training at the Running Room clinic last night...feeling it today. Ow!
Spin class at lunch, shake out those legs!
My heater stopped working in my van....not great!!!!
B: well, when I started typing this I planned to run out and get eggs (forgot to bring my hard-boiled eggs from home) after our meeting to have with my avocado (been really enjoying this meal), but our meeting ran an hour late, and I ended up eating one of my mini meatloaf muffins just now LOL (10:19) Too hungry to run out and get food
S: banana and almond butter before spin
L: other mini meatloaf and roasted chickpeas
S: mixed nuts
D: unknown :-( I will be running around with van repairs, and taking kiddos to synchro. I will probably have rotisserie chicken from loblaws, no skin and veggies

I just love these posts. I'm pre-op, but I find them motivating and lets me see that ya'll are eating really well - no starvation. So many ideas I'm taking note of for future. Thank you!

Good Morning :)
Today I will be dining on a fine selection of Optifast, with a side of Optifast, and if I'm peckish later, Optifast - WOOHOO!!!
It's not even noon and I'm starving already...lol
Eye on the prize!!!!
Have a great day folks.

SB Queen I found that changing the flavours that I added to the Optifast made it a little less boring during the day. Vanilla was not my favourite, but I added Crystal Light and it was tolerable (raspberry I think) I added coffee crystals and sometimes unsweetened cocoa to the chocolate. Like you said "eye on the prize"
