What did you eat today
OK I know that there are people who don't understand why I am posting this. First of all I am doing it for me to help me to see what I have ate through the day and get back on track. Do I always stay on track no but at lest by putting it on here I am seeing where I went wrong. There are a few people who are using this post and I hope it helps them. I started this on Monday and I have already started to lose some weight and that is why I am posting at night. It is not about what I am going to have but what I did have.
Breakfast was a banana and two 100 grams of Greek yogurt
snack cliff bar white chocolate macadamia nut. Had it in pieces on my bike ride today. Training for 100k bike ride Sept 13
lunch one small slice of pizza.
snack 2 peaches
dinner 1/2
1/3 of turkey sausage on a bun, 1/2 cup pasta mostly the vegies in it and corn on the cob
1 cup watermelon
no sugar added vanilla cones. i know this is bad for me and i know I can not have them all the time.
Not perfect by any means
I don't usually post on these but I will today :)
Breakfast-Sesame dream bagel with 2 tbsp of pb2 and 1 tbsp of low carb fruit spread
snack- Chai tea latte made with 0 sugar syrup and skim milk
lunch-carrots and 2 tbsp of dip
dinner-chicken ceaser salad with roasted chick peas (I don't know about everyone else but I feel like I can eat an abnormal amount of salad these days)
snack- cool whey protein ice cream
I'll probably sneak a protein bar in tonight too...
Before the protein bar it was around 1100 cal 106 g of protein 100 g of carbs (48 of which was fiber)

I think we all eat a lot of salad in the summer. Your cool whey protein ice cream sounds real good.
I tried posting on what are eating or doing today and it was not working for me. I started this because I was feeling like I was starting to eat to much and needed a way to get everything under control and it is helping
I'm glad this is helping you. I also crave salad in the summer and soup the minute the weather turns cold.

The ice cream is amazing! kicks any urge to eat the real thing. I'm having the same issue, i've slipped back into eating things I haven't even thought of touching in the last year. Its tough to get back out of!

Breakfast turkey pepperette and 1/3c Greek yogurt
western with salsa in a wrap. Ate half and then the guts from the other half. 3 French fries
2 Melba toast with cream cheese
kashi granola bar in the car on the way to a baby shower
caesar salad 2 bites. 2 bites of a roll. Small chicken breast with mushroom sauce. Half a carrot and half a wedge of potatoe. Walked away from the cupcakes! Yay me.
1 year post op, yesterday I had:
b - gnc shake, decaf coffee
s - half a simply proten bar, back and side bacon with tomato, onion, pickle, a few bites of the bun (it had the bacon juice soaked into it and I caved, sigh)
l - strawberries (a cup, unplanned) this was not planned but they looked so good at the farmers market. I felt sleepy after eating them, I know it is too much sugar for me. Seems I am even more sensitive to sugar post-op than I was pre-op. 2 local baby carrots, they were very good, what I should have done was I should have eaten less of them with some protein to help with the sugar, like cottage cheese or yogurt.
s - 1/2 pure protein bar
d - 2 raw local baby carrots, 4 fish sticks with low sugar ketchup (not planned and not the best choice)
s - 2 fish sticks with ls ketchup, later...sf cherry koolaid
all my water and vitamins
Not a horrible day but a few slip-ups, I will not be buying fish sticks again, too carby.
I would not have been able to turn down the strawberries either. We have such a short time with such good fruit that I say enjoy them while they are in season. I am into watermelon and peaches right now. My favorite fruit are cherries but they on the way out. I know some stores still have them but way to expensive. Congratulations on your 1 year post up. It is amazing at the changes that you go through in that first year.
