What are you doing/eating today ( Thursday)

RNY  5 Years 6 Months Post Op

Morning

Bought very little yesterday as I realized I would rather wait until I have a few more pounds off.  Its amazing what a difference 5 pounds makes in clothing VS the 20 or so it used to take to feel any difference.  I am also much more discriminating then when I was SMO and was just happy it fit.  So, hopefully I will go out again in a few weeks when I have lost some more.

STEPS - 7300

EATS

B - 2 large mugs of regular coffee

     Premier protein shake

     2 cups of kale salad

D - 6 oz sea bass

     small Caesar salad

     Glass of Merlot

Have a great one  

Good morning everyone.  We have been super, crazy, busy the past few days.  I have had latin dance lessons, swimming, a visit to the Lindt boutique (not for me, but our visitor),staying out until midnight both nights, and a trip to the bar last night for a get together with friends.  My eating has been sporadic but I do try to eat protein first. Have not planned my meals today because it is another day of running around.

Have a good day, I will try to write a longer post tomorrow.

Life happens and you have to go with the flow.  Carry a protein bar in your bag and you are good to go!  Enjoy your time with your friends

Day 4 of going back to basics to stop the carb monster. Everything is going great yesterday approved to me it is all will power and your brain. Went to lunch meeting and they only had sandwiches I took half a sandwich and got rid of the bread and only ate the inside egg salad then they put the tray of sweets right in front of me and they were staring at me most of the time but I ignored them Yahoo for me cus last week I would have eaten the bread and the deserts.

Lots of water throughout the day

Way to go!  It really does get easier over time if you just white knuckle it for a few days.....

Great job Lynn! I battled wanting gourmet cupcakes at my friend's birthday party last night. Didn't touch it. The pizza was on a flatbread, and I ate mostly the toppings only and a few apps. I love it when I feel in control. My eating was full of carb-loading the past two weeks, not great. Keep updating us!!

Lynn, you're doing great with this! I hope you're feeling more "in control" with your eating?

I know what you mean about clothes. Before when SMO I was just happy it fit and wasn't too hideous. Now there are so many choices. The 10 lbs I put on last winter are definitely effected the fit of my pants.

Good morning all. Still battling this cold. A couple of people are off work with this cold or flu, whatever. I am just really tired.Using it as an excuse not to bike today. I really need to get off my butt and move.

carbs are high due to all the fruit and legumes. At least not simply crap

Sorry to hear you're still not feeling great, Pat. It's hard to feel motivated to move more, when moving just a little is a struggle.
