What are you eating/doing this Tuesday?

Good morning lovely Menu Peeps. Hope everyone had a good long weekend. It was hot and humid here. Our A/C is still non-operational and we won't get the new one until next week .

DH is off this week so everything is kind of up in the air for activities, but it will involve going somewhere cooler everyday. This morning I'm going swimming and he will me with the nice A/C man to sign the workorder.

Accountability: Nope

Question of the Day: What is your fav salad? I like grilled chicken or salmon on my salad. It took a while for me to like salmon but now if it is done right it is one of my favs. Greek Salad is great, spinach salad is good, taco salad without the taco chips is good. I love all the salads, lol.

The menu today at 4 years post-op

B. Rivers of decaf with a little cream and sweetener (trying to cut back on the amount of cream)

S. Cinnamon Crunch Protein Mug Muffin - Quest Protein powder (1/2), egg (liquid carton 1/8 of a cup), baking powder, coconut oil, water

L. Late lunch at the movies. We are going to see Mission Impossible. I will order a Cobb Salad to eat during the movie, DH will order a Stella and Lobster flatbread. It's like going back in time when people would go to the movies because they advertised air conditioning.

D. Probably the rest of the Cobb Salad.

Have a great day everyone.

Good morning CC no word yet from Meg I see. Have fun at the movies....I'm working till noon today as I have an appointment with the hematologist. See what they say about my ferritin.

B - egg salad

S - greek yogurt

L - zuchinni lasagna

S - maybe protein bar at the hospital

D - more zuchinni lasagna

Massage tonight so I'll miss my Trucker's ball game.

Have a great day, stay cool!

You're right Ginny. Meg we are wishing you well.

Good Morning!

CC I was thinking of you yesterday, because the air conditioning broke! Central air guy is coming out this afternoon. Didn't get a wink of sleep last night, it was too hot even with fans. We got some heavy rain in the middle of the night, but it hasn't help with the heat much.

Accountability: Ate 2 (!) Kozy Shack no sugar added tapioca puddings yesterday. Never should've bought 'em, they are too delicious and go down too easily. Will be giving the remaining 2 away to my mom today.

QOTD: I love a good Caesar salad made with proper dressing. Greek salad. Any tossed salad with fresh crisp veggies. I've always liked French dressing, I'm going to have to look up recipes for a no-sugar version. Can't wait to have salad again. I miss fresh veggies!

Food: 3 protein shakes, and 1/4 cup pureed pasta sauce (PC Organics Tomato Sauce plus added ground beef) with 30 grams grated fresh mozzarella.

Calories: 658, Protein: 86.9g, Carbs: 19.6g, Fat: 21.4g.

Hope everyone has a great day!

Hi Stacey, your menu is looking good. How are you feeling?

I feel great!! I don't even feel like I had surgery. The only issue I have is constant constipation (I'm taking restoralax and colace every day and still no luck )
