What's On Your Tuesday Menu, RNYers?

There's something about seeing those calories in black and white on MFP, isn't there? 

So true.  Some stuff you put in and think "ok, thats not too bad" and others you just 

Looks like today is going to be another nice day after the clouds disappear. 

B:  Premier Protein Chocolate Shake

L:  L&F Toasted Coconut Vanilla

D:  Ugh, probably cottage cheese again.

S:  SF jello pudding w/ 1/2 scoop protein powder.

I decided to wait until meeting with my NUT tomorrow before trying any new foods, I will be meeting with my surgeon at that time as well.  I'm looking forward to trying something different. 

Good Morning! Well today is a day for meetings..I have one as well and before that have to meet some people that are here to do our annual wellness screenings (blood work-it will be nice to see what all my numbers are!). I hope it is appropriate to share an article that my husband shared with me, parts of it really resonated with me and thought it might be a good read for others-  http://www.huffingtonpost.com/lisa-durant2/the-after-myth_b_7115854.html

Here is the plan for my day:

Time since surgery: 8+ months

B: SF Starbucks cinnamon dolce latte (after the blood draw of course!)egg beater scramble,some fruit and a 1/4 flat-out bread with a tad of PB2

S: Cranberry Thin Addictives and laughing cow wedge

L: Grilled chicken or a P3 protein pack

S: L&F Greek boston cream pie yogurt with a handful of granola tossed in

D: P3 pack with some scrambled egg beaters and PB froyo

E: 1 hour cardio

V/W: On track

Totals: Cals: 1011 Protein: 85 Carbs:103 Fat:29

I'll check back in later but hope everyone has great days (and meetings!)

Thanks for sharing that link. I started reading it but actually feel a little teary about it, so I'm going to wait and read it later at home.....

Wow, that was a really great read.  When people look at old pictures of me, or talk about me "before" I lost the weight and feel like they can say super mean things about how I looked, it guts me.  It's like, i'm still that same exact girl, there's just less of me now!  Also, the "after" part of it really resonates.  It's an on going journey/struggle......Thanks for sharing!

I read that a few days ago, and just read it again.  It is such a powerful story, and oh so true.  Thank you for sharing it.

Good Morning. It is going to be a good day. I hope. 

B:Hard boiled egg and some cottage cheese

S:Protein bar

L:Tuna with pickles

D:Steak salad

S:Yogurt

Vitamins are in. I am working on the water. Exercise will be working in flower beds

I have GOT to stay away from crappy carbs!! The past few days pancakes and crescent rolls were calling my name. I need to lose 3 pounds quickly or it will drive me nuts.

Goal for the day: 1500 calories, no crappy carbs. I can do this!!

Oh man.  Pancakes are my kryptonite.  You got this!
