What's on Your (photo) Friday Menu, RNYers?

Have a great time ladies!   

Good morning fellow RNY-ers!

I get in food ruts as well. I try real hard not to, but my job is kind of an "eat on the run"...so to prevent that, lunch is usually the same! But, yesterday, I had a visit form family and actually went out. I do not like to eat out most of the time as I feel it is a waste of $$$ and they never cook it like I like it.

B- coffee (SF latte from the store) as it was cold out. I did not wake up in enough time to fix my own. '

S- Power Crunch Bar

L- grilled cheese on whole grain dunked in tomato soup

S- apple

D- homemade chili with cheese on top and a dollop of sour cream

Got the munchies later on and had some marshmallows....weird I know. But, it killed the sweet tooth

Getting released from shoulder injury next week and hope to be exercising. But, truth be told, I HATE EXERCISE.

Happy Friday!  My weekend plans are pretty low key.  An early run and circuit class tomorrow and a Superbowl Party on Sunday.  Other than that, nothing much.  Just the way I like it.  I had dinner with friends last night at a small plates restaurant.  It was seafood, so everything was healthy and protein forward, but I have absolutely no idea how to track it.  I mean, how do you account for 2 thin slices of hamachi the size of a quarter??  A slice of tuna sashimi???  3 bites of banana bread??? (Bad, Stacy, Bad)  I haven't got a clue.  It's going to drive me bonkers, since I typically record every bite.  Ugh.  Glad to hear the scale is cooperating with you, Mamata!  Mine is not as of yet, so I really think next week is going to be a hardcore low carb week.  

My menu today is all sorts of messed up.  I usually do a high protein breakfast, except on days when I run.  But, I was out of every type of protein imaginable, including eggs.  So, overnight oats it is.  I dug salami bites out of the back of the fridge for a snack.  But, my menu is woefully low on protein.  Looks like I need to add grocery shopping to the "to do" list for this weekend.

Here's my plan:

B: Overnight oats (1/4c oats, 1/3c Fairlife skim milk, 1 tbs peanut butter, 1/2 container greek yogurt)

L: Grilled chicken with veggies

D: ???????

S: dry salami bites and provolone cheese, somersaults

TOTALS:  Cal: 703, Protein: 63g; Fat: 29g; Carbs: 46g (horrible totals . . . ugh)

Have a GREAT weekend!

Time to hit the grocery store STAT!!  Also, a venti latte would add a whole lotta protein to your day... delicious caffienated protein ;)
