Blessed Birthday and today's POE (plan of eating)
I had an extraordinarily blessed day yesterday. I did go a little off plan with some SF stuff (birthday cake baked for me by Bill, and a SF choc covered pretzel, which was one of my gifts). All in all, it was a terrific day. Today's plan is to eat like a post-op. LOL.
1 - 1 egg, 1/4 bagel with butter, coffee
2 - orange and 1 choc covered pretzel
3 - small turkey sandwich on rye bread with salad
4 - banana
5 - 3 oz chicken, 1/4 c. stuffing, 1/4 c. veggies
6 - SF BD cake
The challenge for today is that we are having our office Christmas party, which is simply ****tails and hor d'oevres. My plan is to shoot someone a text before I go in at 4 pm, put a diet soda in my hand, mingle for about an hour, then head out and text someone to let them know I survived. I am going to try to focus on the people and activity and decorations and not eat a single, solitary bite of anything because it's not on my plan. "I had WLS. I don't eat that." That will be the mantra in my mind.
Planning on making an OA meeting tonight. The speaker is a larger woman who had failed WLS. Interesting story.
Have a blessed day!
Blessings, Jill

Jill,
Glad to see that you are posting your food. This is something that I have never done but know it would probably be extremely helpful to me. Hope that you had a good birthday and that the office party wasn't too stressful for you. Finally went food shopping so I have so decent food in the house. Have a good weekend.
