What's on your Tuesday Menu?

I wish I never "broke the seal" to find out I wouldn't die if I ate something off plan. I was so happy without the crap because I was completely detoxed off of the carbs and I didn't care. I thought I had kicked the bad habits for good.

Good morning, everybody!

I am up super early because my son is now working. He has to be at work for 7:00, so, starting at 5:30, Marilyn tries to get him up and out of bed. Hopefully, this get easier as he gets used to working. I do remember how tiring the first few days of a summer job were. I woke up and read for awhile. Maybe I can take a nap later in the day.

You know how when you go on vacation, nobody realizes that you are on vacation for the first few days, but then when you return, people still think that you are on vacation? That is where I am right now. Hence the day napping.

QOTD: three months after surgery, I planned and had a sugar free cheesecake at Thanksgiving and struggled to digest it, so knew I wasn't really ready for carbs yet. At about six months, I had a chocolate covered strawberry and I think that was the first truly off plan thing that I ate. I remember having sushi at 4 months out and being shocked at how much I could eat.

Breakfast: Protein bar

Lunch: Hello Fresh leftovers

Snack: nuts

Dinner: Hamburger

Have a great day, all.

I remember going to a low budget wedding for a young couple who were paying for everything themselves. The meal was pretty much carb laden and nothing that fit my diet. So I grabbed a chocolate covered pretzel and decided that would be my dinner. I was sick for 4 hours till I got home and was able to bring it up. This was only last summer so I was almost a year and a half out. I have not touched a pretzel since.

I want a day nap so bad.

Sounds like it was nicer there than on the Cape yesterday. We finally cleared late afternoon but it was quite chilly with a NE breeze. Even though the temp was mid-50's this morning you can feel that it will be much warmer today (and of course the sun is out). The sun always helps my mood.

QOTD: I had some clam chowder pretty early on because we stopped somewhere for lunch and I thought soup would be safest. I had the worst stomach cramps afterwards probably because the cream broth was so rich.

TSS: 4 years, 2 months

B: Coffee! WW banana and egg pancake

L: leftover swordfish from last night and cottage cheese

D: leftover chicken kabobs from a couple of nights ago

S: cauliflower fried rice and/or yogurt with strawberry compote and/or blueberry lemon yogurt pie and/or WW one point chocolate chip muffin

Good morning menu friends.

I'm not feeling great this morning. Very little good sleep. I'm soooooo very tired. BUT it's a busy day ahead. I have an appointment with my PCP later this morning. He's going to be upset that I haven't had my back surgery yet. It'll be nearly 8 months since I first went and saw him about getting help.

Hoping for a nap today as usual but I doubt it'll happen. Maybe a rest but I rarely really nap.

qotd: this morning I don't really remember. If I think of anything I'll edit it in.

b:1 cup Cheerios 1/2 cup almond milk

l:protein shake made with egg protein powder

D:thinking salmon

As an update.

the clinic failed to let me know my appointment was over the telephone. So it's rescheduled for next Wednesday in person.

not impressed, as usual.

Good morning, happy Taco Tuesday!

QOTD - It has to be something that was laden with sugar. I have RH, much better controlled now, but I'm sure it was something bready, covered in sugar that killed me. It's been 11 years, so I do not remember the specifics but I am sure it was my fault and painful!

Breakfast - Fasting, so hot black coffee, cold brew black coffee and topo chico

Lunch - Leftover panang curry with crispy tofu, garlic and oil jasmine rice, cucumbers with salad dressing

Snack - mango, cherries, a peach, (lots of fruits) and some peanut butter crackers

Dinner - up in the air, just depends on what I can find when we get home.

I hope everyone has a great day!

Good Morning! Congrats on a good review, it helps to know your efforts pay off right?! I have several calls today and not feeling it yet.... bring on the coffee.

QOTD: For me, too much trail mix which resulted in my first episode of RH.

TSS: 5 years 10 months

B: SF latte, Quaker protein/fiber oatmeal and turkey sausage

L: Lettuce wrapped Mahi Mahi burger and baby carrots

S: Chaffle and carbmaster cottage cheese

D: BBQ bacon turkey burger on cloud bun, green beans, sliced fruit, and 2 squares dark chocolate

ES: low carb pita with SF jelly and cream cheese, Homemade Greek yogurt with SF syrup and ¼ cup fiber cereal

E: 6 mile treadmill run and one hour elliptical

V/W: On track

Totals: Cals:1581 Protein:120 Carbs:130 Fat:70

I know I should know the answer but what is RH? I have no idea.
