Hi Barb
I know what it's like to miss doing a sport you love. I have my Brown Belt in Karate and had to quit due to my weight/physical state - I was afraid to go to a Black Belt grading as I knew I'd struggle.
I hope you're on the mend! Enjoy your celebrations tonight.

I hear you re quitting a sport you love because of your weight.....I played little golf for the 2 years preceding surgery....too embarrassed at my SMO body and too much sweating and huffing and puffing.....now I get to wear really cute golf clothes.....and walk the course pulling my bag and cart....with a spring in my step.....you will get there!!
Hot sour dough sounds awesome. My problem would be eating just one. I just spent the last hour trying to find something interesting for dinner with ground chicken. Found something but will problemly change my mind. So for now i am listing this

s protein bar
d eggface chicken nuggets with dipping sauce

I will add more after I shop today. Fridge pretty empty. I also need to do some cooking for the freezer. Running our of meals

All I want to eat lately is chili chili chili - it is ridiculous. I've had it nearly every day for lunch on weekdays for the past 2 months. And sometimes, I have it for dinner too. I made a large amount of turkey chili and froze most of it for later. It tastes even better after being frozen lol. No chili today though as I am out - time to buy more fixins at the grocery store. Here is the recipe in case anyone is interested - I used shirataki noodles sometimes, but mostly have it plain or with green onion and liberte plain greek yogurt, a little cheese: http://www.genaw.com/lowcarb/cincinnati_turkey_chili.html
B - 2 slices low carb cinnamon raisin toast (1g/slice) with peanut butter, butter
S - 3 cups Decaf tea (drank separately from the food - I am getting better at this)
L - 2 kidney bean burritos on lc tortillas (2g/tort), cheese, grk ygurt
S - Quest bar after my workout at the gym ( I like the apple pie one)
D - fast-fry pork with yellow wax beans
S - Crystal light
I am really really really sick of this snow...we deserve an early spring!

Good afternoon!!
I am mostly resting today :)
I have had some more complications :( I was back to Scarborough ER yesterday. I noticed this week, an open wound... GAH!! It wasn't there before Tuesday. When the nurse came on Tuesday night, she cleaned it up and stuff. The wound care nurse came on Thursday and checked things out, then I had issues. My gut told me that it was a wise decision to go and the ER doc said I made the right choice. He called Dr Nandagopal (he was in the OR) and told him I was there and my dilema. He instructed the ER doc to remove my remaining drain and good thing he did, cuz it was mostly blocked. He also gave me another perscription for an antibiotic.
I was fortuante enough to see Dr Nandagopal while I was waiting for my meds. He was on his way to his office and stopped to chat with me. I have to go down again on Thursday for a follow-up for my wound. I am VERY grateful he is my surgeon! His care has been impecible.
My parents-in law came up today, DH and his dad are out for a snowmobile ride and I'm hanging out with my m-i-l. She is baking cookies and taking care of some chores around the house, I still can't do much for housework. I am soooo grateful that I have great family and friends to help me!!
I am getting in all my vitamins and liquids.
B- 1 OE egg, toast, homefries, bacon
L- 1/2 croissant sandwich... ham, cheese and tomato
D- Ma says we are going out for dinner... I will probably have soup or something with Chicken
snacks- homemade cookies (can't resist, my m-i-l makes yummy cookies), Fibre bar, not sure what else
I think I am gonna go have a nappy-poo now.. :D Trying to rest as much as I can.
Have a FABULOUS day everyone
BELOW GOAL Happily maintaining 4.5 years out!! Life is GREAT!!! Had my plastic surgery!
