What Did You Eat Today? :-)

Okay Ya'll.... This is usually on the main message board but I thought maybe it could help us here too.... So... if your post-op or even on a stricted diet - What did you eat today? How much water? If you want - you can use http://www.fitday.com to help you out by counting the calories/protein...

Breakfast: Yogurt - 80 calories/7 proteins Snack: 1/2 Banana Lunch: Grilled Cheese Sandwich @ Sonic - Throw all the crust away! - 250 calories/ 12 proteins I would of ate something better for me but we were outta town in Dayton. Snack: Sunflower kernals/nuts/whatever! - 110 calories/ 10 proteins Dinner:.... I'm not sure about dinner yet because we're having my brother/his gf/my nephew over for dinner! It's Brians Birthday today! There having taco salad though... I might have this without the lettice though! We shall see! I eat better then this but it's just been one of those days, since we had to leave town for an appointment! So who's next?

Ohh I forgot about the 60 oz. of water! I love propel!

Katie, not post-op yet but about the Propel water. What does it have in regards to Carbs & sugars? Does it have any minerals or vitamins in it? Have seen it talked about here and am curious. Thanks, Greg

Hi Greg! I'm one of your rare people - I don't count carbs! I figured I'll be eating LITTLE for the rest of my life, a carb every once in awhile isn't going to kill me! But to answer your question... Propel Water is VERY GOOD! It comes in many different flavors... 10 Calories 0 Fat Grams 35 mg Sodium 3 g Total Carbohydrates 2 g sugar 0 Protein It's called Propel Fitness Water - Vitamin enhanced water beverage Website: http://www.propelwater.com Also try Fruit H2O...

Hi Katie, let's see, breakfast was fixed for me, egg, cheese, sausage, on a bun. That was a brunch. Dinner, fish, Water: home made lemonade all day, is my water supply, keeps kidney stones from forming. Mostly spent the day, on the phone, calling Dr.'s. Have one next week with a surgeon. I have been working on eating realllllllllllll sllllllllllllllow and trying to swallow. My airwave is real narrow, and if I eat too fast, it won't stay down. Hugs, Kathy
