What's on your Monday Menu RNY'ers?

Late post for me! I took a personal day from work because I thought I'd be too tired from my weekend (and I have plenty of PTO stockpiled up that I never use!). I was right! I'm very stiff and sore today and have been hydrating and stretching but otherwise having a (mostly) lazy day. Also doing laundry and editing a high school senior photo shoot from a couple weeks ago. Over the course of the weekend I walked/jogged over 11 miles. I did finish the 5k--started at a jog, but walked most of it. Jogging on concrete (at varying inclines) is not the same as the elliptical and my knees and shins are reminding me!

qotd: I suppose I'm not quite the "machine" I could be, I eat more vegetables and the occasional fruit than a lot of people in their honeymoon phase. But I knew I needed to eat in a way that I would be able to sustain long term, and for me that includes produce.

breakfast: I tried a protein coffee drink I picked up at a Fresh Thyme grocery store. It was 10g of protein, 1g carb, and 80 calories, sweetened with monk fruit. It wasn't terrible!

snack: string cheese, pickle spear

lunch: beef stew

dinner: ****tail weenies and sugar free bbq sauce. Lol story there: DH was supposed to take them to contribute to a potluck at work but last minute decide he was going to play hooky and stay home and be lazy with me. I was irritated because the weenies have been thawed in the fridge and need to be cooked, so I guess that's our dinner plan :P I'll likely freeze some of the cooked and prepared weenies for later eating (I'd bought enough for a group of 50 or so)

Congrats on your wonderful accomplishments!

Hi!

I have not posted in the thread a lot.

QOTD: A lot of the bariatric recipes since I hate making a whole dish for just myself. I also don't drink any of the shakes that are "milky". I found a protein shake that is "candy" flavoured and is more like a juice.

I am 7 months out from surgery.

B: Greek Yogurt

S: Protein Shake

L: Spaghetti Sauce

D: Probably spaghetti sauce again. We have a lot leftover.

Welcome! Come back every day, we are here!

Breakfast: Vanilla Peanut Butter Smoothie, a cup of coffee with collagen added, sugar-free creamer, stevia

Lunch: 2 oz ground beef patty with brown gravy and onions, cauliflower rice, California veggies

Supper: Mushroom chicken (2 to 3 oz skinless, boneless chicken thigh), quinoa, broccoli

Snack: Iced Coffee (1 cup cold brew, 1 premier protein, 2 tbsp Torani sugar-free syrup and ice (evening), not sure about the afternoon, probably a Dannon's light and fit strawberry cheesecake yogurt and a small WW protein bar.

Should be close to 1000 calories, was at 822 calories without the afternoon snack.

I'm up to 11 cups of water.
