What are you eating/doing Wednesday?
Post Op 12-1/2 months
Happy Hump Day Group!! Was awake at 3 and didn't start drifting back to sleep until about 5:45....I was going to get up and go to the gym but knee is a little sore today and need to save it for my run at lunch.
Today is my brother and sister's birthday, so no gym tonight I will be seeing them after work.
B - 1 egg + 1/8 cup of egg whites, slice of cheese (a little less than yesterday so we'll see)
S - greek yogurt and blueberries
L - chili
S - 1/2 can tuna (salad) from yesterday
D - BBQ ribs, 2 bones
Totals (not thrilled), Cal 901, carbs, 48, protein 77 (may up this number with some turkey if I get peckish throughout the day).
Have a good one!
Good morning everyone. Today I'm swimming, then yoga, then Zumba. In between that, I have an appointment and more laundry to do.
The eats today are:
rivers of decaf
Protein bar (I don't eat these often)
Salad with steak on top
SKYR yogurt with all the fixin's

Good morning everyone. I had not been swimming for a while. Boy was I out of shape already. Really tired last night and sore this morning.
Going out to a pub as a farewell to our interim priest. He is a bit of a character. He started out as an actor in England. He is 75 and retiring again. Unfortunately we are going to a pub with a lousy menu. Not too often I do not find something worth eating but I find this place everything is carbs. So I will probably have 2 pork tacos. I usually do not eat the shell because it is too much but still a ton of calories. I may change my mind and go home for a quick dinner and not eat there.
b greek yogurt, fruit
l ham/cheese/cauliflower casserole, source yogurt
s pork sausages
d ?
s a glass of wine
Yesterday I attended the first pre-surgery class. There was a lot of information to disseminate. The behaviourist said that the most successful patients for WLS are the ones who implement dietary and behaviour changes before surgery. I am determined to be a success. I have already cut out carbonated beverages, my once 5-6 coffees a day habit has been contained, I was surprised that it wasn't more challenging to wean myself off. I have to be honest I enjoy my wine and I have decreased but not eliminated it yet. Tonight I have a two hour synchronized swimming practise, my team's water show is quickly approaching.

It's great that you are on here and posting your menus pre-op!! :)
I find if I pre-plan my food for the day it helps me to be better prepared and to stay on track. My big pre-op addiction was diet soda. I haven't had one now in over two years and I'm hoping to keep it that way. I definitely feel better hydrated sticking with water, even though it's not my favourite.
