I posted this late last night...I'll just repost again today...

I don't share much here anymore. But I'll go through what I nibble on throughout the day...Just to give you and idea. I'm over 11 years out.

I'll grab something from the fridge in the morning...Many times fast food. But it may not be the fast food you might think about. Maybe Wendy's Chili (with cheese). Maybe an McDonalds sausage burrito (taking a lot of the bread/dough) off of it. Some Costco Polish Dog (with sauerkraut). I didn't like sauerkraut till post op RNY...Go figure. I will have my McDonalds coffee...With milk, sugar, Splenda, and Equal. I usually just drink 2-3 oz a day...Only in the morning. I have problems sleeping so I stop all caffeine by 12 noon (just me). I also eat my dark chocolate before 12 noon. 70-72% in coco for me...Just a few oz per day. Will grab my fruits, vegetables, and nuts throughout the day. In my pockets I keep; plain nuts (walnuts, peanut [dry roasted], almonds, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, pistachios, pecans), roasted soy nuts, raisins, banana chips, beef jerky, rye crackers, Cheerios (real ones, not fake). I will toss them in my mouth when I feel my blood sugar getting low. Doing OK with my diet. I'm at 199 today...Use to be about 300 pounds. I work off a lot of my food. I try and do a lot of physical work or exercise. When I'm not doing them, my weight goes up...But I try and keep active. Many days I will ride my bicycle to the local coffee shop. Get a cup of soup and a glass of water. I know their soups by heart...Monday navy bean (I put up with that one), Tuesday cream of broccoli, Wednesday chicken vegetable, Thursday beef vegetable, Friday clam chowder, Saturday chicken and rice. The only day I don't get soup in on Tuesday...I don't like cream of broccoli. Also my pouch doesn't like cream soups!! I'll get two poached eggs with breakfast salsa...

Also during the day I'll have things like; homemade soup/stew beef/vegetable (crockpot), Taco Bell (steak power bowl...Add my own salsa). In the evening I will have my plain Greek yogurt (whole milk). I will add real fruit to the yogurt...strawberries, blueberries, bananas, grapes. My downfall most days is tortilla chips...The crunch, the oil, the salt!!

Food for thought...hehehe....I did not know until recently that one could order just the egg rounds from mcdonalds - ( the eggs that go on the mcmuffins) The last time I went to Mcd's I had 2 egg rounds and 2 slices of the canadian bacon no muffin.
