What are you eating/doing today? (Tuesday)

Hope everyone is having a great day!  Had my follow ups today at the bariatric clinic.  Went great!  The nutritionist said I should be eating more carbs, (I usually do 20 or less a day) and try to get my protein up to 80-90.  Nurse, Elvirita, was lovely as usually.  And, I got to see Dr. Huynh today, so I don't have to make the trip down to Toronto next Thursday.  Yeaa!  He was very happy with my progress, especially since all I have gone through since my bypass.  So all is good, I have started losing again, and starting to feel better!

B- missed it, had to leave the house before 6am.

L- I mini piti, made into sandwich, with cheese, ham, lettuce, cucumber, red pepper, and 1 teaspoon miracle whip calorie wise, couple no sugar added pickles

D- Compliments Wild Pacific salmon burger, half cup cauliflower with 1 tbsp cheez wiz melted on top.

S- syntrax fuzzy naval shake.

myfitnesspal totals:  calories 461, carbs 18, fat 15, protein 65.

My protein is low so I am going to cook two salmon burgers, and if I have room, have some later tonight at bedtime.  They only have 120 calories and 23gr of protein, and I love them!

Bye for now  

Your menu looks great!  The salmon burgers, are they flavoured or plain?  I am looking to eat more fish but don't like too strong a fishy taste.

They are lightly seasoned with lemon and garlic.  I just pan fry them in a little oil.  I don't find them too fishy.  I am not a big fish lover either.  I have tried salmon filets, and haddock filets, with different rubs and seasonings and I have found them too "fishy".  I am still trying to find something I like.  I tried a recipe that was on the main page last week, Spicy Sweet Blackened Salmon.  I loved the coating but I tried it on haddock, did not really like it.  I have some salmon that I am going to try it on next.  I cook the salmon burgers in a hot pan so they get a little crispy on the outside.  They are still moist enough inside that they don't bother my pouch.  Sometimes I put a little salsa on top after cooking, Karen's Salsa Fresco went really well with it.  

Evening everyone!

Hope your AC's fixed now, Karen. Tanya and CC, you guys rock with your exercise! I need to start walking at lunch. I have a bad habit of eating at my desk while working. I need to take advantage of the nice weather before it's gone!
