What's on your Thursday Menu, RNYers?

Hi group. I'm new to these posts. It was suggested to join y'all for accountability. I had my surgery on 8/1/17 so almost 15 months post op. My HW was 280, SW was 262, GW is 150 and I was 168.6 this morning. I've been struggling for the last 2 months, gaining/losing the same 5 lbs. I just want so bad to at least see 150 one time so that I can say that I did actually hit goal. lol

QoTD (I think this means question of the day?): I have trouble getting sleep in. I fall asleep pretty easily, but wake up every 2 or less hours. I usually get from 4 to 6 hours total a night. I wish I could sleep all night without waking in the middle. That would be heaven. lol

Accountability: Well what can I say? I'm a coffee drinker. I drink lots throughout the day. Need to try not to drink so much.

b- coffee (Duh! lol) with splenda and a little Fairlife, egg, sausage patty

l- tuna packet

s- pork rinds

dinner- Power Menu Chicken Bowl from Taco Bell minus the beans and rice, plus 3 packets of Fire sauce.

Hope I did all that right.

I have my yearly performance evaluation today. Slightly nervous. Have a great day.

Welcome to the menu thread! You are correct, QOTD is question of the day. You did your first post just right -- one thing you could also do in addition to the types of food is give the amounts or protein/carb counts. We have some amazing support in this group to help identify where pitfalls are.

Thanks. I don't really count macros right now. I mainly just wing it with whatever I eat. I've been doing bariatric keto and my macros were set at 975 cal, 70 protein, 30 carbs and 63 fat. But like I said I've been struggling and haven't been counting them. I know that is something that I need to work on, though.

Welcome to the Menu board, Terri!

Thank you!

Good Morning and welcome! Good luck on your evaluation today.

welcome to the thread!!

and yes - performance evals - that was one of the top things I knew I would not miss when I retired. Even though mine were always fine, I dreaded them for days!!

Welcome, Terri. I am also very new to this forum. I have gotten a lot of great suggestions and support from people on this forum, who are all at different stages of their WLS journeys. It's been amazing!

I hope you keep coming back to join us!!

Hi all- one more day after today thank goodness get to fly home.

Accountability, I had dark choc and indian food with a few bites of naan. so that was my splurge for the week.

QOTD: when im really tired i don't sleep well and sometimes watch tv and make bad choices like more than one protein bar. sometimes i just make hot almond milk and drink it.

food for today

not sure

coffee

water

tea

I've never heated almond milk, does it make it tastier nuttier, like when you heat almonds? That feels like a really dumb question but I Am curious!
