What's On Your Tuesday Menu, RNYers?
Good Morning and Happy Tuesday! You guys are so great to play along with my random musings and questions. I loved yesterdays mascots. LOL
So, I had my menu all planned out, but I totally forgot that today is our office's May birthday food day. Since I am a May baby, lots of people brought WLS friendly stuff like antipasto plates with cheeses and pepperoni and deviled eggs....someone even brought Mrs. Thinsters cookies. It would be rude, I think, if I didn't partake at least a little so I need to rearrange as I go, but here's what I had originally planned:
B: coffee and a Lean Cuisine sandwich. I'm probably going to replace the sandwich with cheese and a deviled egg. LOL
S: 1/2 of a cookie dough Quest bar
L: Buffalo chicken salad, Fiber Gourmet wheat thinables and a Cabot reduced fat sharp cheddar snack.
D: Deli ham rollups and a HB egg. Must. Go. Grocery. Shopping.
TOTALS: Honestly, your guess is as good as mine. LOL
At work, parties can wreaked havoc but isn't great to have co-workers that care enough to make WLS friendly foods. My going away party at my last job was like that... shrimp, cheeses, salads... food that I definitely could eat. And, yes, you would be completely "rude" if you didn't eat just a little something... lol.
My menu today:
B: Tea with Truvia
S: Dannon Light and Fit Greek Yogurt, Cherry
L: 1 oz. Teriyaki Beef Jerky, String Cheese
D: Turkey Cheeseburger Meatloaf, 2 ozs. Red potatoes, ¼ cup cucumbers
S: ½ Chocolate Protein Shake (with 1 tablespoon Ovaltine)
Totals: Calories – 661, Protein – 62, Carbs – 53, Sugar – 26, Fat – 25
I know I shouldn't eat the potatoes and most likely won't be able to eat them, but I can honestly say that I miss potatoes... dang useless vegetable that tastes like heaven.
Everyone have a great day!!
Good morning everyone!
AV, I enjoyed the mascots question yesterday. Love that you keep things fun! Oh my goodness I am with you on the grocery shopping. I need to fit it in somehow... I am working from home today so I may be able to shoehorn in a quickie run at some point mid-day.
I was back on track with water and vitamins yesterday, and feel great. Gotta keep that up again today! I had to reset my phone alarms after getting a new replacement phone, as those reminder alarms really help.
Todays plan:
B - Bariatric Advantage shake, made with 4oz 1% milk/4oz water
S - 2 chicken meatballs
L - beef Fiesta Bites (Eggface recipe)
S - reduced fat cheddar stick (3/4 oz)
D - 2oz Tilapia, Roasted carrots
W/V - underway
E - 20 minute resistance band workout. I have a 2 hour band rehearsal tonight (plenty of cardio).
Totals: 68 g protein, 22 g carb, 22 g fat, 551 calories
Have a great Tuesday everyone! Enjoy "your" birthday celebrations AV!

I hear you on the water thing. I always feel great if I can manage to get my water and all my vitamins in. It's the vitamins I struggle with the most, I think. A lot of times I forget my last dose of the day.
Its been a rainy morning here in NH. Daughter has a baseball game tonight, they only cancel if there is lightning...so it will be a nice soggy game!

Good morning everyone, it's a little rainy here today, that's fine with me, we really need it; of course, I went to the car wash yesterday because I couldn't see out of the windows with all the pollen.
Yesterday was my first day back to work, I made it until 2:00, my goal today is to make the whole day. If not, I'm not going to worry about it. I finally made it to the grocery store last night and picked up some babybel lights, turkey chili and scallops which dh made for dinner and I have leftovers for today.
B: Premier Protein Shake (these make my life so much easier)
L: 3 Scallops ( probably won't finish all 3, but have them if I need them)
D: Turkey Chili
S: Mini Babybel Light (mid morning)
S: SF PUdding (this could be a nightly habit)
Haven't plugged into MFP yet.
