What's On Your Thursday Menu, RNYers?

What a great trip to the store and a NSV for sure! Great job

Please let me know how the mahi mahi Caribbean burgers are. I wanted to buy them last time that I was at Sam's but I was afraid I wouldn't like the spiciness. Which, is kind of silly because I have found since surgery, I like more spicy items more so than before. 

Also, yay oh the NSV. Doesn't it feel good to just say NO!?! Also, the bread/snack aisle won't be as intoxicating after surgery. Used to be nothing smelled better than bread and cakes and I find it not so appetizing anymore... sometimes even nauseating. But, that's okay!! 

Good Morning! Enjoy your 1/2 day off and of course shopping. As for on the go protein breakfast ideas-do you like the P3 packs?

Have a great one!

Seriously, how does one resist Panera?  If we had one closer I would total go all the time!!

When I was pregnant I literally ate their broccoli cheese soup every single day for lunch.  There was one day I couldn't get it and I cried for at least 20 minutes over it.  

I agree wholeheartedly!

I know!! But it was beautiful out yesterday and we opted for Mexican food on a nice patio. I did get my Panera today though!

Morning! Shopping is my addiction, I love it. Not just for clothes, but everything. I haven't really been shopping for clothes much at all over the last year or so because I yoyo so much and have sizes 16-24 in my closet/boxes. I am just crossing my fingers I will get to those 18s sitting in there by my vacation in 5 weeks! At least the scale is moving again...I found out the more i eat the more I loose (at least for now!) So that means 6 meals a day for me...

Time since surgery:  about 2 months

B:  PB on crackers

S:  cheese

L:  tuna or chic salad

S: ?

D:  baked frozen shrimp, some veggie (DD gymnastics tonight, so quick dinner)

S: Italian ice

I am up to about 50ml water these days. Thats pretty good for me :)

Went to dinner at my brother's last night and had some very yummy food. First my sister-in-law made octopus grilled and I have to say it was delicious. I have had Squid, but I don't think I ever had Octopus before. It was the consistency of eating a scallop. She also made some grilled lemon chicken and curried quinoa. For dessert she made an ice cream float, - Sugar free for me, Sugar free Sprite with No sugar added Vanilla Breyers ice cream in a mini 5oz Beer (sampling) pilsner glass. Small spoon and Red striped straw included. It was heaven. I may have to get me some of these mini glasses. Tiny but felt totally decadent.

B: Tea, 1/2 lite English muffin, poached egg (170 calories/18g protein)

S: Fit frappe Mocha (195 calories/28g protein)

L: eggplant Parmesan (baked not fried) - 1/4c ricotta - (300c/21g protein)

S: cold corn soup (100c/5g protein) (leftover from last night too)

D: Leftover lemon Chicken, quinoa, tomatoes (300c/28g)

S: Simply 100 key lime yogurt and 1 1/2 tsp whipped cream cheese mixed in (125c/12g protein) -if needed

My surgeon doesn't have us counting total calories for the day, but when I look at foods I do try and plan a good calorie to protein ratio. So I thought I'd think that out too for a change.

Yum!  I love grilled octopus.  So yummy!
