What are you eating/doing Thursday?

Post Op RNY 15+ mos

Good morning everyone! It's almost Friday!! Yahoo. I've been to the gym this morning and will be taking the rest of the day off from exercise, its going to be too stinkin' humid this afternoon so they say!

Crazy menu today (stat wise), so we'll see if it works.

B - 100 gr watermelon, chili

S - premier protein shake

L - chicken sausage, tomato/cucumber/feta salad with greek dressing

S - 4 slices deli turkey

D - taco salad

Total Cal 1232, Protein 119, Carbs 62

Have a good day!

Scale has not been moving...ok so like reallllllly slow. Thought I'd try to up my protein, which eeeekk now my calories are moving upwards. Won't know unless I try, right?!?

Personally I would ditch the protein chips. Substitute dense protein in there. Will help your calories and I bet the scale too! Good luck.

Good morning all,

Like Georgian Bay, the scale isn't moving much but boy am I losing inches. I have also increased my calories and protein but also know that my plan is working so I will just persevere.

B - protein shake and large black decaf.

L - the rest of my chicken salad with blue cheese and 1/2 cup of 1% cottage cheese

S - jalapeno cheese stick

D - bacon-wrapped chicken

S - 1/2 cup of Skyr with 1 tbsp. unsweetened applesauce

Calories: 701, Protein: 84, Carbs: 24. All water and vitamins.

Going to cut the lawn tonight and go for a walk as it rained last night. And put the cushions back on my patio set - looks like glorious sun for the next few days.

Enjoy your day.

Post Op VSG 10 Months

Long day at work up ahead today. Feeling super hungry today, probably because Thursday's tend to be very long and physically strenuous days for me at work so I need more food to keep me going. Past few days I've been trying to do 3 meals + 3 snacks a day and 1000cals, but that didn't seem to work too well. Too much food to squeeze in one day. 3 meals + 2 snacks in a day seems to work best, but still going to keep it within 1000cals.

Today's eats:

B: Chocolate Premier Protein w/ 1tsp instant hazelnut coffee

L: 1 hard boiled egg, 0.5oz pistachios, 1 mini chicken sausage, 1 babybel, 1 mini cucumner

D: 30g raw kale, 1 hard boiled egg, 0.5oz light feta cheese, 1oz rotisserie chicken breast, 10g salad dressing

S1: Protein bar, 2oz raspberries

S2: 3oz plain greek yogurt, 2oz blackberries, 10g sugar free maple syrup

Totals: 992 cals, 49g carbs - 25g fiber = 24 net carbs, 104g protein

Thank you -- always love seeing what the VSGers are eating and thir amazing success !! Congrats!

No problem! :) Thank you so much for your kind words! Feel free to check out my MyFitnessPal profile linked in my signature - I have my food diary visible to the public and I've been tracking every single day since about 1 month postop! Hope that helps :)

This is ugly I think. Having a super hungry day. 5 months post op

b: 1/2 turkey sausage

snack: 2 pieces cheese and 8 grapes

lunch: protein bar

snack: 2 thin crisp crackers, 2 pieces cheese, I mini square chocolate

snack: protein. It from Starbucks: 4 pieces of cheese, wheat thin crackers, almonds and cranberries

dinner: 2 pieces of ribs.

And I feel like I could eat more. I hate these days.

No no clue on the stats. I am sure I have met my protein requirements and over my calorie needs.
