What's on your menu today (Thursday) RNYers?

Morning all~ I am so tired of having gastro issues....on and off for over a month. Yesterday, I almost passed out in the shower. I was dizzy and shaky, it was all I could do to get out and sit down before I fell down. Even though I think I am pounding fluids, I was very dehydrated. My PA said as long as I don't have a fever, not nauseated and am able to drink that I didn't need IV fluids (unless it gets worse). She suggested I drink fruit juice and Gatorade or Pedialite and to eat toast and bananas, no caffeine and take it easy on dairy. Ok... I up'd my fluids to maximum levels and feel a bit better today. Kind of achy and certainly *****y, just ask my staff....I just bit someone's head off.
Rob didn't get the job...they said he was overqualified (he has extensive experience). To me, that says they didn't want to pay him what he was worth. Okay, so it wasn't meant to be. He has a few leads he is working on, we shall see.
One of my brothers is moving to Port Townsend, Washington tomorrow. We are having a get together tonight. It's the first time the siblings will all be together since we cleared out our parents house over a month ago (things did not end well). I'm having some anxiety about it. I'm still pretty upset at one of my sisters about the way she acted and truth be told I wish she weren't going.
Accountability - Serious fluids yesterday like it was my job, jello, popsicles, a few pepperoni and spoonful of whipped cream cheese w/bagel spice.
QOTD - My main goal is to have lost 150 pound by my surgiversary. I would secretly love to be at goal by then, but it may not be realistic.
8 mo post op - 186 this am
b-decaf coffee w/ heavy cream and splenda, pepperoni
l-pepperoni
d-not sure - protein forward
v/l on track
e- no - family dinner tonight
Have a good day all~

Yikes, you have a lot going on! I hope you feel better soon! Have you gotten labs done lately? Any chance you are having dizziness from any vitamin deficiencies?

Thank you! I had labs done about 6 weeks ago and everything was great. My PA said she though I may be pushing myself too hard with my diet and exercise. She thinks I should be eating more carbs and calories but is still really pleased about my loss.
