Whatcha eating today VSGers? 3/10/2017

The knowledge that my dad won't be calling me tomorrow to wish me a happy birthday or good luck on my race has taken root. After physical therapy I might spend the rest of the day in bed feeling sorry for myself.

1: protein shake

2: bereavement group is meeting for lunch at bob Evans for our last session. I think I'll get an omelet and hash browns.

3: no idea - spending the night with friends and they'll be feeding me

liquid and vites: on track and will work hard to stay hydrated!

exercise: physical therapy

how about you?

That is very sad, but try to have your chin up. You will do fabulous!

Snowy day in Jersey. Bigger storm next week, cool!

B oatmeal & hard boiled egg whites

S if needed nuts and berries

L tuna salad on salad, clementine

S if I didn't eat my other snack. I rushed out today because of the snow coming, and to get to work early. I also forgot my salad dressing, welp!

Exercise, not today, meh

Liquids on track

I'm watching that storm, because I'm supposed to fly out of Laguardia on Wednesday morning. I'm scared the flight is going to be cancelled!

It's supposed to be super cold here tomorrow for the race, which is such a drag because, oh my god, ALL THE LAYERS. And then we're supposed to get snow next week too. Eek.

Sorry, you're feeling down about your dad. My mom was killed by a drunk driver 12 years ago and my birthday is still the hardest day because we we had a tradition of going on a shopping/girls weekend together every year.

B: Dannon Light & Fit Greek & Babybel Cheese

L: Crab Salad (Light Mayo, dill, lemon) & Cabot cheese square

D: Unplanned, but probably something quick because my kiddo has gymnastics

S: Premier protein (this may become dinner instead)

E: 3 mile walk on lunch break

Thanks. I'm sorry about your mom :(

I think/hope this birthday will be the worst because it's a big one. But it's also the first one without my dad.

My mother was very ill with cancer and dying on the week of my birthday - and she just kept saying, "I don't want to die on your birthday." She passed the day before and my MIL passed the day before my anniversary - It's sad, but try to remember the happy times and know he is not suffering any longer. And, happy birthday!

B: crispix

L: idk

D: maybe scallops

E: snowing here - yuck, so doubtful, even though I have on my fancy new exercise capris and t-shirt, haha

L/V good

I'm sorry :(

My dad made it about a month after my birthday last year. But I had no idea, on my birthday, that he'd be dead less than a month later. Cancer sucks.

That is the truth.

B-protein shake: Jay Robb Tropical Protein with 8 oz Fair Life Milk and 1 tsp SF orange jello powder.

L- 3.5 oz grilled chicken, garlicky greens (kale) and a cheese stick

D- 1/2 c Kung Pao Shrimp (for Wegmans)

S- if needed, peanuts

Pre-Op. Surgery scheduled for May 1, 2017!
