What are you eating/doing today ( Thursday)

So.. cream cheese is okay?

Ive been wanting chocolate or something sweet. Im trying to kick the craving... its just annoying now.

I use low fat cream cheese, the bake is really filling, I eat 4 tablespoons and I am full.

Awesome

 Thank you. Im not really a fan of cream cheese so id hope its not to strong.

Need to shake up my eating somehow. Im getting bored with my same meals.

Good morning all!  Not so hot today, that's nice.  Off to see vascular surgeon today, find out if I have to have surgery on my leg.  Keeping my fingers crossed.  I have been afraid to weigh myself due to all the swelling, but it seemed better this am, and I had a loss, Yea!  I may go to GNC after my appointment to pick up some of their rtd shakes to try.  Really trying hard to up my protein as my hair is just falling out in handfuls.  Terrible 

B- Source greek yogurt

L- 3oz white chicken meat on 1 cup garden salad, 2tbsp home made dressing

D- half red pepper stuffed and baked with 3oz shredded taco chicken, 1tbsp salsa, 10gr havarti inferno melted on top and a chopped green onion.

S- syntrax fuzzy naval shake, meal leftovers

Hope everyone has a great day, bye for now

Good luck today. Let us know how it goes

Thanks Pat, Unfortunately the news was not what I was hoping for.  The anurism is getting bigger, and the vascular surgeon recommended surgery to repair it.  It won't be done right away, he is booked up, but should be within a couple of months. He said it is not urgent as no blood flow is being restricted.  But, if it was to "pop" again and start bleeding into my leg, it would be emergency surgery.  He is a great doctor, from what I have heard and read, the chief of vascular surgery at Southlake.  He is an older man, and he told me Dr. Hagen was an intern or something, under him at one time.  He is also an associate professer at U of T.  I have complete confidence in him, surgery on arteries can be tricky, and healing in the groin area can be difficult.  So under the knife I will go again this year, anesthetic again, I am sure I am going to go bald.

Good morning Barb. Glad it has cooled off. That should make the move a little easier. I was able to go swimming yesterday. I was glad I made the time. I am biking home tonight. I haven't been biking much this year so hope I do not do myself in.

Out tonight to start of the women's group at church. We did a lot of fundraising to install a new kitchen. It will be nice to see how it is coming.

Link is in yesterday's posting, it was super good :0)

Just be careful with these type of foods as they feed your sweet tooth.  A very occasional treat is OK - a steady diet of sugar free products can trick your brain into needing more sweets.
