What are you eating/doing today? Tuesday

Me? Probably not much. I got a 24 hour stomach bug and so the worst is over but my digestive system is clearly not happy.

Today I am at home and resting. Yesterday was HORRIBLE. My body wanted to sleep off this thing but I honestly was not tired so it was tough. I drifted in and out of fitful sleep amid stabbing stomach pains and waves of nausea.

Today I am doing soft foods. I actually woke up with the nausea gone and I was hungry so I ate some Greek yogurt (maybe not the best choice but there still isn't much in the new house). I hope I don't regret that.

What's going on with you today?

Sorry you are sick hope you feel better soon!

Today I am going to try and get things together for our trip to the lake this weekend. Should be a good time with my sister and soon to be brother in law. Can't wait! And just a side note, I have a cute new retro style swim suit to wear Yay!

B: Turkey, Banana, string cheese
S: Apple, Yogurt
L: Chicken and spinach salad
S: Cottage cheese w SF strawberry jam
D: Chicken fajta, Pinto beans
S: 100 cal ice cream sandwich

Stomach bug- yucky. Glad to hear you are feeling better and I hope nobody else in your house gets it! Make sure you get your fluids in....

I hit the gym this morning- ran, did some abs, rowing machine and the hip abducter/adducter machine. last night I asked my Body Pump Instructor for some ideas for my inner thighs and she recommended me doing that more and also another class CX Works. Anyone ever tried that one? I like to know what I am getting myself into ahead of time!

Eats
Breakfast- protein shake- vanilla protein powder, strawberries and No Sugar Added Nestle Quick, Spy Milk and a Grande Iced Coffee from the Bux.
Lunch- left overs from a BBQ we had this weekend- grilled chicken and spicey bean dip.

Oh and Nik- I had a recipe I think people might **** do I just email you on BF?? The spicy bean dip has a been a hit for years and seems to be post op friendly.

Yes! Do email me. I need a picture as well. You know us Foodies love our food porn :)

 B:protein frappe ( vanilla protein powder scoop, click mocha scoop, 1 tbsp of NSA hot cocoa powder, skim, and water/ice)
L: mint cookie protein shake probably
D: grilled chicken dipped in sriracha and a steamer bag of Brussels sprouts


Doing 2 shakes and a small meal all week to change it up and trick my body and maybe trigger some more weightloss :).

Oh a 24 hr bug totally sucks.  I hope you are feeling better soon.

Wake-up-FF latte
B-weight control oatmeal with 2 slices of turkey bacon
L-leftover spaghetti sauce from last night (spa-chili as I like to call it) and a cheesestick
S-I have an apple and pb
D-Oh rats...I forgot to take anything out of the freezer.  Hmmm....pork chop probably.

Spa chili...I will have to borrow that one. I don't do noodles. They make me feel yucky. I usually get myself a nice bowl of the sauce and load it down with parmesan and black pepper and go to TOWN!

 On top of spaghetti squash, yummy!

Nik, hope you feel better soon!

Pouch / intestines ??? whatever ??? has been super sensitive to sugar and fats lately.  I don't know why, but I used to be able to tolerate a single cookie, some limited fried foods, and other "naughty" items... but lately, I'm going to straight gut pain.  :-(  Me wanna cookie....

So, I gotta be good:

B - power crunch bar
L - leftover tofurkey sausage w/ peppers & onions
D - more leftovers!
S- ??? not tolerating my SF treats well either.  So, probably fruit.

Hope you feel better, Nik!! Today I'm doing my usual and tracking on myfitnesspal. I highly recommend tracking for anyone who is struggling. I think in general we eat wayyyyyyy more than we think we do unless we track. Even 3.75 years out it keeps me on track and keeps the dreaded "bounceback" at bay. I'm determined to stay thin.

I hope everyone has an awesome day!! I know I will. I'm a teacher and there are only 5 more days of the school year!!
