It occured to me that not everyone plans a day's meals in advance, so I invite you to post yesterday's food on this thread.

After just one week of taking an iron supplement (for anemia), I am feeling soooo much better. My life goes on being filled with challenges (not all of them related to WLS), but they're not so overwhelming when I feel more energetic.

At work yesterday I must have eaten my lunch too quickly (trying to get it all in during a 15-minute break is one of those challenges I mentioned above), and I felt sick for about an hour after that. Otherwise my eating went according to plan.

Today's plan:
B: protein latte
S: baked oatmeal w/ fruit & walnuts
S: ricotta cheesecake fluff & a few blueberry fiber crisps
L: leftover shrimp & tomatillos
S: Greek yogurt
S: cashews
D: Buffalo chicken potato skins, broccoli & cauliflower
S: almond protein ball

I made a new batch of the cheesecake fluff and this time added half a scoop of vanilla protein powder. It didn't change the flavor of the fluff, and a little bit more protein is a good thing.

This morning's exercise class is weights & resistance work.

Have a great day!
Jean

Yesterday turned out a disaster. Even though I can rarely eat a meal, yet, garbage goes down very well. My hubby had candy with him for our long road trip from hell. You guessed it, old habits die hard. I have been justifying it as "I keep losing and I need the calories." Bull ****. I need good quality food and if the calories are too low I just need to add a protein bar or something else. 

The good news is that I was able to eat a little over 1/3 cup of bean with ham soup at lunch and 2 good sized spoonfuls of orange chicken at dinner. The chicken was dry so I only ate one bite but it all stayed down.  Soooo.... today I am returning to good habits. No grazing and no crap.

B. 10 grain hot cereal with 1/3 cup nonfat dry instant milk (extra protein) and 1 tsp. sugar
S. Fuzzy Navel with Crystal light shake
L. Either protein soup or refried beans
S. Protein bar and 1 serving of Wheat Thins
D. Going to attempt 2oz. lasagna if that doesn't work another shake is in order
S. Pudding cup.

Eating candy in the car? Yeeesh! I'd have to pack a barf bag.

 have a gut of iron as far as that type of thing goes, though I would not dare eat more than a couple of pieces at a time without risking a dumping episode. I did that to myself Sun. pm and it was a good reminder that I can have SOME sugar but not a lot. Unfortunately spread out doesn't affect me.

We have suddenly decided to go camping for a couple of days so we will see how the planning goes without being able to get online to log my food. I can keep a running total of protein, though, which is helpful. Today and tomorrow may be the best of the weather for 2 weeks.

Yes, I have had to use a barf bag in the car. Getting rid of it is not fun.

I sure miss the edit button!
