Looks like another nice day out there! Off to work for the day, no other plans at the moment other than home for the weeeeeeekend - Happy Friday!

9 years post-op

- coffee with cream x 3 over the day, Nestea Zero thrown in there (I'm really not enjoying these, I can taste the artificial sweetener and not much else, will add a squirt of lemon juice) -

 - Premier protein shake (vanilla)

S - Source Greek (cherry - delish), a few cherries and a couple of grapes (first cherries of the season, very disappointing)

L - leftover beef stir fry

S - muffin-tin crustless quiche OR another Greek yogurt, I'm finding myself getting a "sweet" craving in the afternoon some days, unusual for me

D - 3 oz BBQ chicken breast, lemon-basil green beans & mushrooms

S - not sure yet but for some reason I'm craving a ham/cheese/pickle roll-up dipped in deli mustard, which is silly since I've had a couple for the last couple of days lol

Have a fabulous Friday,

K. :)

P.S. With respect to the Love Beets I often see on your menu - is that the one I see at Costco?

Yeah, the earlier berries and fruit are often not the best. Sometimes I find they pick them when they're not quite ripe because they're in such a hurry to get the season started. I found that with the strawberries last year. I'm dying for strawberry season to start!

Karen enjoy your weekend. 

I had a Nestea Zero yesterday ( first one since before surgery) it tasted like pure sugar to me. Didn't fini****

I haven't seen them at Costco...they are in a small plastic container in the produce section at Longo's....I only like the sweetfire marinade ones....I can eat the whole container if I don****ch it - in one sitting....they take away any craving for a sweet...and are filling....lots of carbs though so I only purchase once per week

Top of the morning to you all!  I am having a very energetic morning since four thirty.  Stuff is gettin done so I am sure I will be bored and tired by mid afternoon, lol.  i hope you all have a wonderful Friday and weekend ahead.  

b- oatmeal

s- pure protein shake

l- avocado, grilled asparagus, chicken salad

s- if needed a cheese string

d- burger patty with some salsa for a kick

s- greek apple pie yogurt

Cheers! 

Julz, what do you think of the Source Greek apple pie? I find it quite tasty but my taste buds are always a little surprised to taste apple and cinnamon in yogurt.

I actually really am enjoying it and I am not a big yogurt person so I am pleasantly surprised.  It is a good quick easy go to for me.  The idea to try it came from you people's lovely menus...i read these faithfully and add to my shopping list as to what to try next, lol.  

I get a lot of great ideas from other people's menus too. We have some very creative, excellent cooks on this daily thread!

Morning Barb and everyone! Second tracking day in a row...heh. It's the little things, right?

Yesterday went not too badly, except that I got hungry about an hour before leaving work, so today I'm packing a bit more for during the day. I ate some tofu as a snack in the afternoon when I felt ravenous (and it was real hunger), so I'm hoping that my adjustment today will work. It's been so long since I've actually tracked what I eat that I have no idea how many calories will actually keep me. As it turns out, around 1200-1300. That works for me.

Since I really enjoyed everything I ate yesterday, I'm just gonna do it again today. Boring, I know. I'll change it up a bit on the weekend after doing a bit of grocery shopping.
