Good morning!

Up and at 'em early this morning as I head into my crazy-busy week that I've spent months planning and arranging for (all that for two flippin' days!).  All will be great - as long as everyone behaves themselves. lol

Have a great day!

L - Costco roast chicken salad (I was THRILLED to find this in their fresh salad section yesterday! I haven't seen it there in a couple of years, have been asking, and it's baaaaaackkkk.... rotisserie chicken, mayo, celery all beautifully prepared for me. Thank you, Costco. You just give and give.), a few melba toast, Strub's full sour sliced up

S - Source Greek (apple pie), handful of grapes

D - the department I am running the election for has ordered us lunch or dinner - I'll have the chicken salad for one, not sure what they've planned/ordered so lunch or dinner is a mystery at this point lol Even if it's pizza, I always enjoy the toppings ;)

S - I packed a couple of ham/cheese/pickle roll-ups if I'm empty

K. :)

I'll have to check out the Costco salad lineup, my mom wants me to go and pick her up some coffee today. Headed to Innisfil today, hoping I can hang out with Jaxie a bit while I'm in her town... woot woot.

Iced tead to drink throughout the day, still struggling with plain water.

Good morning everyone,

I took my daughter to a basketball tournanament for this weekend (3 days, hotel, lots of restaurant meals with the team). I have to say it was my hardest time post op. All in all, my prep paid off but those many meals out are tough. Even healthy snacks/foods I brought posed a problem for over snacking. Lessons learned and here I am.

B - oatmeal with 1% milk & brown sugar 100 % splenda (a strawberry or two)

S- greek yogurt 

L- tuna with saltines

S- pickles, cheese, chicken leftover

D- Pasta dish for family but for me.... Baked Tilapia with wild rice with some greens

Snack - Kellogs Crisps with no fat sour cream

Tara :)

That really is hard, Tara. Anytime we're out of routine is a challenge. I'm sure you managed better than you think - and definitely better than if you hadn't done some prep! :)
