What's on your menu today (Tuesday) RNYers?
Good morning. It's cloudy and sticky here today.
I stayed on plan yesterday so that was good. Unfortunately I got tied up this morning and couldn't work out and likely won't have a chance today.
QOTD: When Harry Met Sally and Love Actually.
3.5mos post op
B: dunkins coffee and wake up wrap
L: 2oz deli ham and 3 slices of cheddar
S: turkey pepperoni
D: ham and cheese egg beater omelet and bacon
S: popcorn
HW: 287 SW: 266 CW: 149.2
QOTD: Ever After (with Drew Barrymore) is one I've watched over and over. Originally had it on VHS, then I upgraded to DVD, now I have it on bluray. I can also always watch Braveheart.
Shark week and cravings are bad. I ate a single-serving bag of salt and vinigar potato chips (my absolute kryptonite). Someone had left a pallet (A PALLET) of them in our break room at work for the taking. My silver lining is that I didn't grab 4 more bags and squirrel them away in my cubicle. I looked at the nutrition labe AFTER. 200 calories!
Today:
breakfast: 2 eggs with chopped bacon, green onions, 1 slice of cheese, and 1 tbsp leftover sweet corn scrambled in.
Lunch: tuna salad with 2 pickle spears
snack: I ordered the sample pack of Syntrax (17 flavors!) and have the caramel macchiato with me. DH are sampling them together and will order jars of what we like best. My own pre-op liquid diet won't be for a few months, but I got really burned out and even nauseated by Premier Protein and other chocolate/vanilla flavors when I did it with DH.
Dinner: leftover cheeseburger casserole
Good morning! It's supposed to be clear, sunny and warm today. I'm so tired of the overcast and weird temps lately. I've been so busy at work lately and putting off things... I have a project due tomorrow that I still need to put serious hours into, so I will be working pretty late tonight, BOO!
Accountability - I was craving cheese-its so bad! So I added some cheese to my dinner in the pan with my chicken. I let it get really crispy. OMG, no regrets as it was a small amount and totally satisfied the craving.
QOTD - Pride and Prejudice, Bridget Jones (the 1st one only), The Count of Monte Cristo and Everafter. These are my top 4 choice picks...there are other that if they are on TV, I will watch every time like The Godfather, Goodfellas and Titanic.
9mo post op - 179 - yes!
b-coffee w/heavy cream and splenda, SB iced coffee w/half and half and splenda, HB eggs
l- tuna salad w/mayo and onion, balsamic vinegar
d-leftover chicken or sausage not sure yet
v/l - on track

Have a great day everyone!

Hi everyone! It is hot and humid in the Philadelphia area today. The heat index is 103..whatever that means.
I've watched pride and prejudice s million times. My friend and I watch it together at least once a year...we even have lots of the lines by heart. Do you think we need an intervention? Others: close encounters of the third kind, the godfather, the last waltz...
Yesterday was a weird day ...weirder than usual at any rate. I am 4 months out from surgery and am starting to feel hungry all the time. I know it's head hunger because ...for example, I was too full to eat dinner last night. Also I don't feel full as quickly. Do you guys have any suggestions,? I guess this is an opportunity to reinforce my new eating habits? Is it normal to feel this way so soon after surgery (I'm still losing weight.. Maybe a little slower) I'm confused.
B. Protein drink with coffee
L. Ham steak
S. Hummus v8 wedge of cheese
D. Ham steak and cauliflower
Thanks for helping me out. Does caffeine have anything to do with it?
Measurements: pre surgery B 56 W 56 H 74
Current: B 43 W 44 H 52. Yay!!! Have a great day everybody. Nancy
