Nuthin But Nutrition Sunday

Okay we're halfway through November.  I'm holding my own on wt. so that's way better than gaining.  I get in my liquids and protein.  I HAVE to start adding back in exercise.  I have so much more energy when I do!

Today's plan:
lots of liquids
protein coffee already downed
Chicken broth
Click or other protein drink
Impossible taco pie for lunch
Steak and a little potato for dinner and spinach
HI-pro snack

What's your plan?

Good morning!!!  I hear you about the exercise... hoping to either go to the gym or at least walk this morning.   I did great on my plan yesterday although for some reason I'm having a hard time getting my water in.  Had that trouble all week....  I think that's why I haven't lost this week... my body is hanging on to it... maybe a bit dehydrated.

So my plan today.....
Breakfast: Believe
Snack: Click
Lunch: Oh yeah
Dinner: fish
Snack:???
and water, water, water, water.... and some more water!!!!

yesterday - food nightmare

Today - redo...

I did fairly well yesterday in my quantity but not necessarily my choices.  I had a bacon/egg/cheese biscuit from Chic-fil-A which was too greasy and made my tummy icky for an hour.  For lunch I went to my favorite Burger place with Liz and LL and had 1/2 open-faced burger, 5 french fried and one onion ring.  Dinner was at Clay's company thanksgiving dinner and I had one slice turkey, 1/4 cup fruit salad, one roll, 2 bites of pecan pie and one deviled egg.  Considering the HUGE spread and that the dessert table alone was incredible, I think I did really well.

I have absolutely no plan for today and I know what that means so I better start thinking of one.

I'm just shy of 5 weeks post op now (will be 5 weeks tomorrow).  My doctor asked that I be conservative with my food choices until after 6 weeks to allow my tummy and pouch to fully heal.  I'm branching out a little but still doing okay I think.

Breakfast: protein shake
Lunch:  clueless...maybe a few bites of leftover meatloaf
Dinner: Chicken bake (I'll be trying a new recipe)

Lots of water and my vitamins in between.

I am really craving asian food.  I think next week we may splurge and go have some Japanese.  Cooked on the flat top will be considerably more healthy than trying random Chinese restaurant.  MMM...scallops.  I hope they tast as delicious as I remember.

Jenn white rice in sushi is evil - just sayin :) but miso soup is yummm

Oh...I'm not jumping on the sushi bandwagon yet.  Sushi is my very favorite food but that is still a long way off.

I'm thinking hibachi with no rice and just meat and veggies.

did good yesterday - even though sams sample ladys and getting the kids hotdogs n soft prezel on the way home -  and the biotch in the box was kind so gotta keep this up

I am writting out my plan the night before I go to bed that way mornings do not require thought and I enter it all into fit day to see how I am doing - trying to keep a very close eye on calories and keep  protien higher than carbs - today should be 1257 cals 135 pro 118 carbs

7 shake
9 fiber bar
11 shrimp with ****tail sauce
2 tuna salad with tomatoe and lettuce and 10 crackers
5 roast with muxhrooms, sw pots, onoins and celery and maybe brown rice
8 cottage cheese with blue berrys

well its almost noon and I skipped my fiber bar - will have it before bed if I want it then

Last night was a bit of a splurge. Our Dive club's Anniversary dinner at the Momument Inn, it has been one of my favorite places for years. They are especially noted for their home made cinnamon rolls. Up to dinner yesterday was right on plan, and I had planned somewhat for the dinner.  I had 2 fried shrimp, 1/2 piece of fried carfish and 1/2 a stuffed crab. Oh...and 1 small bite of cinnamon roll without much spice or butter.  I took sevral Ziplock bags with me and brought home a little of all those things! DH graciously ate the cinnamon roll last night with his coffee....sure smelled good!

So today involves some leftovers.

Pre-B - Pam's Chai Tea
B - Boiled shrimp dipped in Fage tartar sauce
L - Stuffed crab
S - string cheese
D - Fried shrimp, Fage tartar sauce
LNS - Chai Tea

Today is day 2 of 5 day pouch test. I did ok yesterday. Did have a Low sugar spell at the grocery store and grabbed one of their sample cookies. I went to GNC and got an ISopure 6 pk and Some Mocha Lotte Light Muscle Milk(wow, first time to try) It is great! Today I have had
1 Cup Coffee(real)
1 Mocha Lotte-15 gms protein
2 Fruit flavored Isopure plus-15 gms protein x 2
16 oz water
I am feeling pretty energetic and good today. It sure is an eye-opener to how much snacking on carbs that I had been doing! I plan to go to the gym at some point today. Hope yalls Sunday is great! GO DALLAS!~
