What's on your Menu Today (Wednesday) RNYers?

Good morning! I just recently stopped having yogurt myself. Mostly because I don't care for it anymore but also because of the carbs and wanting to stick to denser protein. Thing is, I can only eat a few bites of dense protein and that is it, so I'm still supplementing with protein powder where I can (newbie problems!).

QOTD - I come here for accountability. I am reminded daily of what works and what not to do! I get great ideas here and learn from each and every one of you -from vet's and newbies alike. I see what I can do better and I'm working to be as successful as I can before my honeymoon is over. There is always room for improvement. Plus, you guys are pretty cool :)

Words of wisdom, thank you for the advice? 

QOTD. What keeps me coming back here is people like you who have good hard core advice. I love reading everyone's struggles, accomplishments, and whatever else they share. I don't feel so alone in my journey.  I'm not always good at posting my menu or weighing my food. I'm a work in progress. 

It took me about 3 months to finally get to the point where I was logging and posting daily.  I had to get used to the routine and really commit to it.  over a year later and I'm still here.  I dropped off of posting for a bit, but I have been here everyday reading.

Good morning DD2 and crew!

QOTD:  I keep coming back because I believe you guys about accountability.  I try to post daily.

a...which leads me to MY yesterday... totally off the rails food-wise.  My wife had to be flown to the mainland with heart trouble.  In a panic, I threw a bunch of stuff in a bag to take.  Turkey jerky, greek yogurt, protein shake, salad, babybel cheese, moon cheese, protein bar.  I forgo****er.  When things finally settled down at the hospital, I looked in my bag... turned out I had plenty of GOOD choices for things to eat.  I ended up going over by about 200 calories at the end of the day but being that it was my first big crisis since surgery I was pretty happy.

Daisy I get it about being a robot.  I had a half piece of toast on Sunday.  No justification. No argument.  I suck it up almost always and eat my protein.  But every now and then I lose the battle. I do not know how to change that.  Luckily I am down a good bit of weight and I do know a different way to eat, and that is becoming a habit for me.

B:  Premier Protein shake, Fairlife with coffee

Rest of day:  doing the same thing, taking yogurt, turkey jerky, protein shake with me to hospital.  And water.

Have a great day everyone!

Is your wife doing OK? Are you back home, or still with her? I hope she's going to be OK!

She is still in the hospital... they are giving her meds to try to convert her heart back to a normal rhythm.  Waiting to see if it works.  I have my food, though.  I hate hospitals so much.

Scary! Good of you to have presence of mind though to think of bringing your protein along! Hope she is home soon.

I hope they can get her back in normal rhythm soon. My thoughts are with you. 

Sorry to hear about your wife. Hope all is okay.

I hope your wife will be home soon! We have a friend who has been struggling with this too.  Right now they are managing it with meds.
