What are you eating/doing today? (Thursday)

Good morning fellow Menu Minions. I must have done a good job at the gym, pool and yoga yesterday because I am sore.

This morning I'm going swimming, then to the gym. I might meet with a friend for coffee. No plans for the evening jus****ch TV and have a fire and cuddle with DH.

B, lots of decaf coffee and tea throughout the day. Half of an egg and bacon sandwich

Lunch. Hot Thai Prawn Cake with a salad of spring mix, red peppers, sliced apple and WF Honey/Dijon dressing

Snack 2. Grilled chicken skewer Buffalo style with Blue cheese dip

Have a great day everyone.

Good morning CC and the rest of the gang. CC I don't know how you survive on so few calories, are you 4 foot nothing and 100 lbs?

Went and did the Power Weight class at the gym last night. Standing in front of that mirror with my muscles fully engaged really emphasized the bat wings. UGH. Made my think I need surgery!!

5 kms at the gym this morning and a walk at lunch today.

Post Op 21+ mos

B1 - Premier Protein Shake

B2 - 1 egg, 1/8 cup egg white, cheese slice

S - greek yogurt, strawberries

L - pot roast, cucumber slices

S - deli turkey, old cheese

D - Chicken Cordon Swiss

Total Cal 1031, Carbs48, Protein 124

Quantity of food seems right, but calories seem low. Leaves room to add something if necessary I guess.

Not 4' nothing, but heading that way, lol. I always tell my husband that he's getting taller, not that I am getting shorter. I'm low in calories because I'm trying to combat the 5lbs I gained over the holidays with treats, and being sick for almost 3 weeks without really doing much gym time.

I've been really low carbing and truthfully I've been skipping snacks because I'm not hungry. As long as I get my minimum protein in and fluids I'm not going to stress about it for now.

I would have to have arms as big as Arnie's to hide my batwings.

Did you make your Chicken Cordon Swiss. I just bought DH some on sale at Zehrs.

No I got it at Costco. Barbers - 250 calories, 10 g carbs, 21 gr protein. It's actually really good.

My Trucker was an Ass Hat again this morning. I gave him a gun show and told him I needed batwing surgery. He didn't know what I was talking about so I gave them a swing....he says oh I thought they were part of your muscles when I put my arm down he pinched my fat at my armpit/boob and said something about that, can't remember his words.

I said you just missed an opportunity to compliment me, his response was "yes I did because I'm a man and we're stupid....unless you're a dream guy and they don't exist" I need to get him some serious training!!

ROFLMFAO. I think I love you Trucker.

Lol, you message came to my inbox and I read it before you deleted it. You made me spit out my coffee.

I deleted it because I realized I was repeating myself!! Glad I could make you laugh though!

Good morning :)

I have a super busy day ahead with much of it on the road, so I hoping to be super prepared with my food to keep me in check.

S- Cheese string and kielbasa

L- Chicken Skewer

S- plum and Kielbasa
