What are you eating/doing today? V day!

Thanks so much!  I'm sorry you cut your finger, yow. I did the same thing last week on a can of plums. Finger cuts hurt so bad.

I was really super tempted to go all out for my "last supper" and have kind of a binge fiesta of all my favorite things--a cheeseburger, onions rings, nachos, and a big ol' ice cream sundae.  

But eh. I'm trying to keep in mind that I'll eventually be able to eat all those things again....if I want to, which I don't think I will. At least, I hope I won't.

I was driving my dog to doggy camp today, and I passed by all kinds of fast food and donut shops and stuff, and every time I saw a long line of cars piled up at the window, I kept thinking, "Not me anymore!"

I admit, I'm overly optimistic and possibly a bit naive at this point, but I'm really looking forward to having that help in overhauling my diet. :)

I'll see you all on the other side! 

I love newbie optimism. It makes me believe in a better world. J

 

I think your outlook is good. And a gorge last supper is probably not a great idea anyway. The more stuff you eat (and the unhealthier it is) the greater the chance some of it will still be in your stomach when the surgeon goes in there. And nothing ****** a bariatric surgeon off quite like a bunch of food in the stomach!

 

There are some things I used to eat that I cannot anymore. But you know what? I ate the hell out of them when I could and I am actually satisfied with that!

 

And whenever possible, of course, I play with my food to recreate the flavors I want!

 

You are going to do great.

 B- hot vanilla protein latte
S - power crunch bar
L- chicken thigh
S- permier nutrition chocolate shake
D - Crying Tiger beef & Satay Chicken (going out to Thai for V-Day with hubby!)

Hey Nik,
What flavor Click do you recommend? I'm on Amazon and there's a few to choose from. Oh, and where would you recommend to buy it? Amazon it's almost $21.

Thanks!!!

I like Mocha. Amazon's price is as good as any BUT Bariatric Foodie was given a discount on Click this week if you order through the ad on my site (unfortunately I get no kick back from this but it is for the greater good...sigh...)

10% + free shipping.

 My pouch and I are not friends, after an all night throwup session...so today is simple, protein drinks (3) and fluids...

And I'm expecting many trips to the washroom LOL from the fluids

Being at the front desk of an office has it's perks and it's downfalls. I've had about 3-4 people bring me a cookie, cupcake, and mini candies today. I've endulged, yes. But have cut myself off for the rest of the day! Sugar coma.....

B: Coffee & 2 servings sweet & hot beef jerky
S: half a cookie
L: Refried beans & ground beef in a whole wheat tortilla with L,T,O, cheese and salsa
S: pretzels with 1 oz sharp cheddar cheese
D: chicken breast topped with black bean salsa with a salad

1hr workout with the personal trainer today... butt kicker! WOW

B- before workout - chocolate protein w/ PB2 and a Tbs greek yogurt
L - made chili... had 2 servings

D - taking roasted pork loin and veggies to work
S - probably the strawberries and goat cheese I didn't eat yesterday

Work is providing treats everyday this week... yesterday was a soft pretzel (I ate about 3 inches), today is candy. boo.

nothing special for me about today...just wore pink to show a somewhat tepid valentine appropriate response.

B: Chile Rellenos Puff/turkey sausage/avocado
L: 4 cheese cauliflower/egg/edemama/grape tomatoes
S: quest brownie protein bar
D: taco casserole, salad, veggie
S: string cheese, deli turkey

Hey are the cauliflower and taco casserole BF recipes? If so, sweet! I think you will have made my V-day! (Please don't let that last sentence influence your answer)
