What's On Your Tuesday Menu, RNYers?
Oh, and in case anyone is wondering, why yes, my breakfast did have entirely too much sugar in it, thankyouverymuch.
Lol... I just went back and reread your breakfast. Did the sugar make you sick?? Because I have been having more issues with sugar lately. I am going to have to give up my Yasso treats because they are just making me so nauseated after I eat them. They were fine before but this last box... bleck! But, the taste was out of this world! Taste vs. nausea.... now I am realizing that I have changed my lifestyle. I honestly don't think I would have had the strength to give up something so good in the past. Thank you, Petunia Pouch!!!!
I think so. I feel like I'm becoming more sensitive to sugar the farther out I get. After I had my last bite of my Fiber One bar, I was like "Oh, I wonder how much sugar that was" like a dope. Turns out 16gms of sugar between the yogurt and the coffee cake was toooooo much. If I had had one or the other (which I've done before with no ill effects) I would have not suffered so. LOL
Hey AV,
My sugar sensitivity has definately gone way up the farther out I get. I mean, I get crazy sick if I over do it. I see this as both a blessing and a curse. A curse for obvious reasons (sometimes a girl just needs a little cake) and a blessing for the same reasons (maybe she doesn't need cake as bad as she thinks she does :). Still it's been hard to navigate, but I'm finding that if I eat some protein with my sugar that helps (both with keeping me full and normalizing my blood sugar levels). Good luck!
Good morning, all!! I think the sensitivity training is great. The WORLD should be required to have sensitivity training about obesity bias... I think it is one prejudice that is almost celebrated and allowed. Hopefully, someday this will change.
Today is my 3 month surgiverary! So, I have lost 57 lbs since surgery, which is great! But, why do we always think we should have done better... lol! I feel 100% better all ready and am more confident than ever that this is the correct journey for me. And, to accept that this is going to be a long journey... that's the hardest one for me. Anyway, yay, me!!
My menu today:
B: Tea and SugarLeaf
B2: 1/2 of a deviled egg (ate this way too fast! Will I ever learn?)
L: To be decided. I didn't pack lunch today but there is a little cafe in my office building. I am hoping I can find something healthy, mayb a P3 pack or something.
S: Toasted Coconut Vanilla greek yogurt
D: 3 oz. talapia and roasted zuchinni... same as last night but it was GOOD!
S: Protein Hot Chocolate (Swiss Miss No Sugar added plus a little Genepro)
Totals (without lunch): Calories - 563, Protein - 51, Carbs - 42, Sugar - 32, Fat - 24
Vitamins - Totally forgot today... will at least take my evening dose, Exercise - I know!
Everyone have a great day!
Good Morning All!
AV, I think it's great your hospital is giving that training. After my surgery, all of the nurses and staff were really really nice, which made me feel so much better. I was so nervous about surgery as a whole, and it helped during that time to have sympathetic/compassionate people helping me out.
Time since surgery: 16 months
B - 2 string cheeses & fiber gourmet crackers
L - 1/2 hardboiled egg/tomatoes/sugar snap peas/some chicken breast (aprox. 1.5 oz)
S - Jerky
D - Salmon (I didn't end up eating this last night)
W/V - On track
E - none planned, but I really need to work on getting my steps in, so I'm going to try and work a few 15 - 20 min walks in throughout the day...
Have a great day everyone!
