What are you eating/doing today? (Monday)
Good day everyone!
I can't believe it was 5 weeks ago today that I had surgery! I was give a choice of 3 dates, December 5th (which I chose), December 12th or today, January 9th. I'm glad I chose the date I did. I am down 29.4 lbs since surgery.
I'm working hard to get my fluids and protein in. At my follow up, I was given credit by one nurse for getting in 2.5 L a day of water and then another nurse told me I needed more....
Todaya eats
B - 1/2 package of high protein oatmeal
S - 1 oz chicken with 1 light laughing cow cheese
L - 1/8 cup of tuna with 1 teaspoon of low fat mayo and 2 melba toast (I am not a seafood/fish eater AT ALL, but have been able to stomach tuna if it's been in a macaroni salad or something) it wasn't to bad on its own and it seemed to sit ok as well
S - premier protein
D - 1oz chicken with taco seasoning, 1 teaspoon of low fat grated cheese, 1 teaspoon of low fat sour cream
S - 1/2 cup of Greek yogurt, of needed
Cal - 512 Protein 72 Carbs 23
Cinderz you may find that your tastes will change now after surgery. I have seen many post that was the case with them. Try giving some mild white fish a try with some spice that your like (taco, greek, asian or Indian), you might be surprised that you like it, and it packs a lot of protein.
