What are you eating today (Tuesday)? and/or what did you eat yesterday?
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!

Brrr its cold out this morning . Cant wait to get to that Florida weather in a few weeks .
Breakfast bacon, egg , cheese burrito in a low carb high fiber tortilla shell
Lunch chicken , green beans, cottage cheese
Dinner grilled chicken salad (bowling alley)
Exercise Zumba this morning and bowling tonight
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.

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
