Whatcha Eating Today VSGers? Christmas Day, Monday, December 25, 2017
Merry Christmas all! Today I wish everyone a happy day. Yesterday, I grazed for the first time since July. I logged this morning what I could remember. (I owned it) and realized that even though it was way over the top, it ws still far less than I could/would eat in a single meal at a restaurant previously. Today we are back on the wagon.
QOTD: Take your pick... what is the best and/or the worst gift you have ever received?
The best gift I've received was for no reason at all. My boss allowed me to use his time share week at a resort in Orlando. It was a much needed break for my husband and I. The worst? A set of broken canisters from my future in-laws. (They haven't gotten much nicer). LOL
M1: Coffee, Vanilla PP shake and Miralax
M2: Rib Eye
M3: Skipping
M4: PP Shake
M5: TBD. Definitely smoked turkey.
S: None
E: Nothing formal.
Water and vits on track.

Drawing a blank on the best/worst Christmas present but merry Christmas everyone i hope everyone gets to spend it with their family! So i have a confession I Did a lot of snacking yesterday I'm feeling a little guilty about it but staying focused and moving forward and TMI but I'm super constipated.Today I'm going to my cousins house for a Christmas party I have no idea what she is cooking which makes me a little nervous.
M1 premier protein
snack baby bell cheese
M2 premier protein
M3 Christmas dinner at my cousins house I'm going to to stick with available protein
Merry Christmas everyone and a heartfelt hope that we all enjoy a healthy, peaceful and joyous 2018!!
Fondue was a great hit last night, everyone seemed to enjoy it. We had a strong and outspoken group, so it was an evening of great political discussion...which I love:-) Everyone left late so I awoke this morning to a disaster in the kitchen/dinning room, but that's okay it was worth it.
QOTD-I am having trouble coming up with a best and worst gift as well, but it's a fun question. Sorry about the broken canisters Ladyblue:-)
B-Plain greek yogurt w/SF pudding and pumpkin seeds
L-scrambled eggs with lemon pepper
S-Chai tea w/cream & stevia
D-Christmas dinner of prime rib was cancelled at my uncle's assisted living due to a flu outbreak, no visitors. My mom and I might go see a movie now that we don't have any plans, not sure about dinner though!!
E-walk with my dog
Have a wonderful day!
Merry Christmas! I hope everyone has a fantastic day!
QOTD: Worst gift was a $1 store wind chime from my ex-husband. Best gift was my Apple watch which I just received this year from DH#2.
B: coffee w/HH + protein bar
L: eggs and bacon
D: prime rib and a bit of the sides
S: no snacks today unless I get starving because last night I ate a bit too much and made myself feel miserable. Taking it slow and easy today. Protein, protein, protein.

Merry Christmas! Yesterday I didn't track the day intentionally. I did have a lot of BLTs, but way less overall than pre-WLS and I am back on the usual maintenance wagon today. We will be getting together with friends or family for several meals this week, so I really need to be careful with choices. There aren't too many sweets leftover to tempt me thank goodness - just some pumpkin bread and chocolate chip cookies.
QOTD: The best gift was probably a diamond tennis bracelet for DH. He gave me a lot of great jewelry over the years. I can't recollect a "worse" gift.
1 year, 9 months post-op
B: eggbeaters, cottage cheese and Canadian bacon
L: tuna salad, pickles and cottage cheese
D: leftover crack slaw
S: nut thins and hummus

YAY I get to participate!
Doing dinner with friends tonight, no clue what they're serving but from experience it will be carb-heavy crap. Bringing a protein shake along for insurance. Will have a tiny slice of the gingerbread cake I made yesterday, and a small serving of my spouse's beautiful cranberry/orange/pineapple trifle.
B: 4 oz. cottage cheese
S: 0.5 oz. almonds
L: 6 oz. teriyaki chicken
D: ???
E: none today, walked yesterday
"Friends are like flowers; no matter how well you pick them, they all eventually die."
Follow up: Yep, it was all carby crap. The sole protein source was ham (my least-favorite protein, besides the ones I refuse to eat).
Potatoes, mac and cheese, stuffing, parfait, rolls...
Had my protein shake, a tiny slice of ham, and picked at the carbs just enough not to be a bad guest.
"Friends are like flowers; no matter how well you pick them, they all eventually die."
Merry Christmas Everybody! I hope you all have a love filled day.
QOTD: Really hard to pick a best/worst. Several candidates in each category, however.
Did well eating yesterday. Having leftovers today so I will stay on plan.
B: 2 eggs
L: Cheddar cheese, black olives, 2 slices salami.
D: Leftover prime rib, green beans.
S: If get hungry, I've got a Danon L&F Greek yogurt waiting.
