Welcome back Barb! Crack coleslaw sounds interesting, what is it :) ?

Was a very stressfull week, probably losing my job by June 20 :( I am so thankful for the weekend to regroup and destress alittle and make a game plan for the future. Trying to stay positive, one door closes, another door opens... I hope so.

Anyways, lots of errands today, shopping, dog to the groomers (lucky dog, gets more spa days then me!...lol) and one more closet to clean out.

 

B- Source Cherry yogurt (100gr), /2 PC thin bagel

S- protein coffee, 1/2 banana

L- 1 egg scrambled w/ 1 slice turkey back bacon

S- 1/4 cup light ricoota with mixed berries

D- 2oz roast chicken with 1/4 cup green beans, 1/4 cup cauliflower

 

Be well everyone

Morning :)

Sounds like you had a great time at the gala, Barb - good for you for recognizing after all these years the better health and better LIFE having surgery has given us. I'm still thankful (and proud of my damn self) everyday.

Need to do groceries today and buy new towels for my newly reno'd bathroom. Can't wait for the house stuff to be finished - kitchen and bathroom done, new dining/living room floors next week, hire a painter and then DONE. Very exciting! Anyway......

8 years post-op

B - (over a couple of hours) coffee with cream x 3, 1/2 cup Greek yogurt, a few cherries, 1/4 cup granola, almonds

S - 3 breakfast sausages with Dijon for dipping, sliced cucumber (weird combo I know lol)

L - 4 oz burger with all the fixings no bun, sliced cucumber and tomato, a little cheese on the burger too

S - likely just tea and a Clementine maybe

D - Caesar salad (romaine, red onion, a few croutons, dressing, parm), 3-4 oz BBQ chicken breast

S - a small treat - ginger ale mixed with grapefruit juice (don't yell at me about the ginger ale please! I'm 8 years post-op and well below goal lol)

Have a fab Saturday!

P.S. Wtf is crack coleslaw?

Google "Crack Coleslaw" and you will find the recipe under low carb cooking......its OK....not the best thing I have ever tasted.....but easy to make...my DH like it.....and we will eat it for lunch and dinner until gone....gets better with age...( like most things... )

Attending a wedding today. First one in a few years. Looking forward to it. Hope the rain hold off for the happy couple. Long day yesterday 9 am – 11 pm – but sold a house so that is great.

I know exactly what you mean Barb. This time last year I would have found an excuse not to attend this wedding.  And if I had gone, I would have felt self conscience the whole time I was there. I bought myself a pretty dress (size 16) and some black and white pumps. I won't know a lot of people there but I will be able to go in with my head held high.  Thank you WLS Gods!!

Going to soak some lentils overnight to make lentils and carmelized onions tomorrow, one of my favourite meals.

 

 

Barb sounds like a great night. Even now I can not wear heels. I love the look of them but have bad feet.

Been running around and cooking today. My son was away for Easter but he is coming with his girlfriend and her daughter. My daughter will be home as well so that is nice.
