Accountability.. what did you eat Wednesday

Well the day before thanksgiving.  I was doing the carpet cleaning thing which took most of my day but the carpets look great.  Did more prep work for tomorrow and fell asleep on the couch.  Hence the late post for the day.

OPps had an apple not on my list so add about 60 more cals.  Not to bad of a day.  Its so funny with the big numbers from yesterday I was so worried I would gain and I lost a pound.  Might be a good thing to increase the cals.  Now if I could just get my brain to allow me to do it.. thats another story. See you all tomorrow... keep that ship sailing right... Carla

Well, this day started at 1:30 am..I woke up hungry and couldn't go back to sleep so I had a cheese stick. Definately went back to sleep but had I needed to do a fasting blood test, I'd have been in trouble. I don't know why doing a fasting blood test has me so flustered but late in December when I actually do have to give one, I'm going to be a terrible wreck.

The day for me:

2 am snack: 1 cheese stick

Breakfast: Malto meal with banana, coffee snack: Homemade protein bar (with added peanuts) Lunch:Tina's burrito, Beef & Bean, Green Chili and then a cup of yogurt Snack:Cheese stick and another homemade protein bar (I don't like the peanuts in them now so I'll have to do another batch without the nuts..Picky little me) Dinner: Buffalo Steak Burger and 6 pretzel sticks Dessert: Frozen Banana Yogurt (soy based, homemade) only 1/2 cup Totals:  Calories: 1550 Fat: 44 Carbs: 161 Protein: 111

Not to bad of a day.  good protein and all else looks good.  Sorry you had a bad night of sleeping.  Get some good rest tonight.. Take care and I will see you tomorrow Carla

Well the day started off good (food wise) Then it was a bit of a free for all, trying a bit of most things, but not all (I did skip the mashed potatos). I have to say everything was delicious and I made the desserts very low fat and sugar free, but the stuffing is what I enjoy the most. Another thing to be thankful for today Having had WLS! I know I did not eat anywhere as much as I would of had before WLS.
