What's on your Monday Menu, RNYers?

Yes! I miss my straws!!

I had no problems drinking with a straw. Like JB said, I'm not 3 and I can control the amount of air I suck in. I can drink a TON more water through a straw than without

I have followed my surgeons instructions to a T with the exception of taking to many carbs early out. When I did increase them like they suggested I started to gain.

Quick post before going back to bed. Working nights tonight and tomorrow. I will read all of the posts when I get up later.

First of all, my scale is moving now and I finally hit 100 pounds lost. Sorry if you have already seen this on a different posts from me...but I am super excited that I finally got here!!

QOTD: One thing I would tell my pre-journey self would be to take pictures and measurements at the start of your journey.

Menu:

B- Triple Zero Greek yogurt

B- Protein shake

L - chicken mushroom stir fry

D - light tuna pouch

S- 1/2 cup cottage cheese

Calories - 574, Protein - 91, Carbs - 30

Extra breakfast due to extremely long day.

Have a great week everyone!!

Congratulations on getting down 100lbs! That's an awesome milestone :)

Thanks!!

Congrats on the 100lbs down!

Thanks!!

Good morning menu peeps. Long time, no see. I have had a lot of stuff going on, and have not been coming to OH like I should. So I am promising all of you to do better.

JB, I am so glad to hear that your parents are doing better. Remember to take care of yourself, too. The stress of caring for aging parents can take a toll that you might not notice at the time. I wish I had paid more attention to that while my Dad was ill. Self care is critical.

Today I am meeting my brothers at my Dad's house to do the final staging before we put it on the market on Wednesday. I also have to get my taxes done. I keep putting it off, and time is running out. Ugh!

QOTD:The advice I would give myself is to not put unrealistic expectations on how quickly the weight will come off, and to not compare myself to others. The body will do what the body will do. Stick to the program, and the weight will come off in its own time.

Time Since Surgery: 2 years + 5 months

B: Egg Beaters, mozzarella and bacon omelette

Have a great day everyone!
