What are you eating/doing Monday?
Good morning everyone! Wow, what a change in the weather. Was nice to be able to get a few things done in the yard this weekend without sweating buckets! Up and at 'em to the gym this morning - 5 mi on the elliptical. My Trucker has ball tonight (actually every night this week but Wednesday) and I like to go and watch so I'm not going to start night classes until next week.
I made these tasty little things for my dinner last night, delicious and filling but not a weekly menu item due to the stats. They are a keto Chicken Enchilada. You make the wrap with shredded Mexican blend cheese. I thought it was going to be difficult but they were actually pretty easy. My only "complaint" is that it doesn't stay warm long and I'm not sure you could reheat them without them spreading all over the plate.
Anyhow, eats for today, 2 years 5 mos post op
B - egg salad sandwich on 35 calorie bread (2 eggs, 2 slices bread)
S - pepperoni wrapped mozzarella
L - cobb salad (lettuce, chicken, bacon, egg, cheese, ranch)
S - 4 slices deli turkey
D - 4 oz roast chicken breast
Have a lovely grey/wet day!!
Good morning everyone.
Ginny those look really good. I want those. Sobey's had some Cracker Barrel on sale and right beside them was a stack of $1 off Cracker Barrel cheese. They had Monterrey Jack with Jalapeno and Monterrey Habanero which would be great with those. I've seen them made into taco shells. Maybe it wouldn't matter if the shells got a little cold.
My internet was down last night and most of this morning. DH was on the phone with the provider trying to get things sorted.
Accountability: Very good
The eats today at 4 years post op are:
B. River of decaf with stevia
L. Half of an avocado with spicy shrimp
D. Jerk salmon with a poached egg on top and a little Hollandaise, grilled asparagus with buttah
About to hit the gym and do some weights and cardio
Have a great day everyone.

Good morning!
Ginny, those look delicious. Were they chewy? I think I have a recipe pinned on Pinterest, as something to try in the future.
As for the weather, I've gone from sweating to death to needing an extra blanket at night, all within the space of a day. So funny. I believe things are supposed to warm up again by the end of the week, however.
Not much on for me today, besides some housework and getting back on the treadmill. I might indulge in a bit of Netflix this afternoon. Feeling the need to just veg out for a while, before things get crazy again.
Accountability: I'm back to planning and tracking my food, and I'm getting in my protein, water, and vitamins. I've been relying on Quest bars to help with protein, which I don't particularly feel good about, but as long as I'm staying on plan and not overeating, I'm okay with it for now.
Food:
Breakfast: Protein shake (Naked Goat protein powder, Naked Choc PB powder, 1tbsp whipping cream, cold brew coffee, SF flavouring, crushed ice)
Lunch: 2.2oz modified crack chicken
Snack: Quest bar
Dinner: 2.2oz modified crack chicken

Kara I forgot to tell you that I saw Jay Robb eggwhite protein on sale for 50% off at either Low Carb Grocery or Low Carb Canada. They both send me emails, and I can't remember which it was. Crack chicken, yummm.
