Good morning Barb and Happy New Year!  Great to see that some wonderful things never change - you starting the WAYE thread each day. Can't contribute my menu as at a skinny 115 pounds and trying to gain, NO ONE would wanna hear about what I'm trying to shovel in. LOL  I'm pretty sure though at almost 8 years post-op, I may have a few tidbits to share.

Glad to be back (or trying anyway) and thrilled to see you.

K. 

Nope - back to stay. I miss you guys too much!

Welcome back, Karen, and Happy New Year to you!  I've missed you.

Welcome back Karen!  I have missed you.  115lbs-omg would you have ever thought that you would need to eat to gain weight???  I am sure it is as much of a struggle as losing weight is.  Just wanted to wish you all the best and I look forward to your down to earth replies and posts!!  Happy New Year!

RNY, 1 Year 2 Months Post Op

I was able to finally edit my ticker below - wanted it to reflect my current stats which are not great.  Hoping this will help motivate me to stay on track and lose the 13 lbs that I've gained over the last few months!  It started when I was on the cruise and my bad eating spiraled from there.  I want to be accountable for this and take back control before 13 lbs becomes more!

The good news is I lost 2 lbs over the last couple of days by sticking to plan. If that loss holds over the weekend I'll update my ticker accordingly.

Today I'm going skating with the kids, then might hit the recumbent bike this afternoon.  I'll do a long run tomorrow morning.

Here's my eating plan for the day:

B - Greek yogurt with berries and all bran buds, SF syrup, protein bar

S - Pepperettes, cheese

L - Leftover salmon from dinner last night, salad

S - Carrots and Hummus

D - Butter Chicken

S - Jello, Cottage Cheese with some oranges

Totals - 1554 calories, 123g carbs, 67g fat, 123g protein

Have a great day!

Good luck with the loss. I find the carbs creeping in are finally showing on the scale and it scares me so trying to improve today

Thanks, Pat!  I've been eating really badly so definitely deserve the gain.  There is really nothing that bothers me from a sugar/carb standpoint, which is not a good thing!  So it's back to good old fashioned willpower.  The good news is that I've kept up with my activity, so hopefully improving my eating will help the pounds drop back off again!
