Whatcha eating today? Monday, 10/10/2016

It's Monday again.  I walked up a big hill on Saturday and my shins have been yelling at me since.  This is suboptimal as I've got a race on Saturday!  

I'm seeing my PCP today to get a prescription for a DXA scan.  I've read a number of research papers recently saying that WLS people are at risk for bone density issues even with calcium supplementation, so it seems wise to get a DXA and a baseline now.  I'll also be asking about my persistent orthostatic hypertension since I'm 2.5 years post-op and still dealing with it.  

1: protein shake
2: um... crap.  I haven't thought about lunch at all and I just realized that I'll be out of the house until 3pm or so.  I'll either wait until I get home and have some meaty spaghetti sauce, or I'll have a protein bar while out.
3: flat iron steak, asparagus

liquid and vites: on track
exercise: rest day

How about you?

Hi, Gwen. My doctor's been after me for a DEXA scan too, partly because of the weight loss, partly because of previous prednisone use, partly because of my age (65). I'll call him today for a scan order and have it done soon. Thanks for the reminder!

1. Coffee w/cashew milk
2. TBD: Going to Red Robin or Chipotle w/my grandson. Probably a Caesar salad w/chicken and dressing on the side.
3. TBD: Probably sauteed chicken tenders, zucchini w/almonds and garlic.
4. Snacks: Apples

W: Good start

V: All patched up

E: Brisk walk on a beautiful crisp autumn day with my grandson. Life doesn't get any better.
