What's On Your Monday Menu, RNYers?

AV,

My condolences on the loss of you MIL. Your MIL looked like a very sweet woman and has quite the extended family. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

I feel very blessed that my mother, who is 88, is still with us and in decent health for her age. She has more of a social life than I do, lol! I call and talk with her at least once a week. 

We also just found out over the weekend that our brother-in-law's ( my husband's sister' husband) father took his own life Friday night. I guess there is just going to be a small private family service and was cremated. My heart just breaks for my brother-in-law.

B: Pork patty

L: chicken

D: possibly crab

Sorry to hear of the loss in your family. 

Hello all, 

One week out and I am starting to get into a groove.

This is a revision from a sleeve to an rny - so I am trying to make this work. I know one of the most important thing to do is keep track of what I am eating, so I have it in fitness pal and here! 

I took all my vitamins, did 8,200 steps, but didn't drink nearly enough water. 

2 crushed vitamins and a probiotic in a cup - kinda tastes and looks like a fun dip

grande tea at Starbucks 

1/2 protein shake 

a few tablespoons of refried beans, avocado and salsa 

Protein coffee (not real coffee it is a chicory blend - I almost had a decaf as the day was getting to me, but I stayed strong)

My daughter and I had freezies - they were fruit based but after her melt down, she is getting her 2 year molars, we both needed one! 

strawberry muscle milk while my daughter ate chicken nuggets and fries. I was too lazy to make dinner so we went out for a walk and stopped at the McDonald's that is attached to a  convenience store. I was happy to see the muscle milk. I would have just skipped dinner without it. 

Happy Monday all

jaime 

Can I ask why you revised?  I'm set for revision from sleeve to bypass on 7/1.  I'll definitely be following how you're progressing so I hope you continue to post!

Hi, 

I got the revision due to weight gain. I had my vsg in 2010. I was about 280. I only made it down to 180. I didn't stay there long. Blink of an eye! 

I made it back up to about 238 around Christmas this year. I was having gallbladder problems so the Doctor suggested we do a two for one - gallbladder removal and rny at the same time. I happily agreed. 

I feel really good so far. 

What about you? 

Thanks for your response! I developed severe reflux after my sleeve.  It's been a problem for about a year and is only getting worse.  My surgeon said the only real treatment for me at this point is conversion to bypass so that's what i'm going to do.  

Sorry for the sad news and bad days going on.  One day at a time.

My weekend was good - my youngest son graduated from high school so we had a few celebrations! 

12 more work days until summer vacation for me! I cannot wait!

B - protein shake

S - hard boiled egg & cheese stick

L - chicken with veggies

S - nuts, Greek yogurt, blueberries

D - leftover braciola from graduation, salad

S - hummus w celery

i feel like I'm eating constantly but my blood sugar doesn't seem to plummet when I do this. 

Congrats to the graduate!
