Hey Dawn
I cant believe that tomorrow is Friday. The week flew bye. Today was a good day. I got brave and cut my hair really short today, finished decorating my bathroom then came to work at 3.
My good eats..
My good eats...
B: Power crunch bar
S: Protein shake
L: Ham & cheese sammy on light wheat w/ lettuce, ff mayo and mustard
S: Almonds & WW Yogart
D: Baked chicken leg quarter w/ light bbq sauce & Steamed asaragus
S: Apple & RF cheese
I'm satisfied with my totals. Eating went as planned.
Tomorrow my job is having a suprise baby shower/pot luck for one of the nurses so my eating is not gonna be as "pretty" as it is today. I'm allowing myself to splurge a little!

Very good totals...Awesome protein number. You did great. The eating may not be pretty here either...birthday party today. I fought hard for no donuts but they're having muffins anyway. LOL. I'll cope, I guess.
Have a nice friday!

Long day too! Great list...Keep up the good work. See ya.

Hey Girls 
Last day of the work week, looking forward to the weekend (like who isn't?)...Youngest son is coming home from 10 days at Gramma's & we have a neighborhood BBQ to attend on Saturday too - must be THE weekend to BBQ...Know they are roasting a whole pig NC style and I'm bring 2 side dishes to ensure I have some good choices to make from...
Thursday :
B - strawberry and banana protein shake
S - coffee with carb countdown
S - hb egg and a mini babybel lite
S - protein coffee
S - 8 whole cashews & 2 slices pepperoni
S - 8 espresso beans ( mistake to eat SO late, slept restless, too much caffeine too late )
D - 2 hotwings with a dab of ranch, 4 bacon wrapped scallops and 1 bite of gr. bean cassarole
S - 1 bing cherry ( just a little something sweet to appease the voice in my head
)
Water / crystal lite - 112 oz Cals: 1095 Fat: 61 NetCarbs: 34 Protein: 102
Overall, happy with my continued progress on restricting the "white" from my diet...Fat % continues to be really high, yesterday on my tracking "pie" fat took up almost 1/2 the pie in relation to totals...In the 1st year post-op my Nut strongly advocated looking at the label and making choices that had no more than 30% cals from fat, my next step to conquering my food demons is to get back to that LOW fat menu.. I'm thinking this will be a challenge, I have gotten used to having a variety of nuts and peanutbutter back in my life, also like bacon as a protein source, all of these do not have good fat to calorie ratios...Boy, this is harder the second time around
Check back in later...Thanks for listening and for any input anyone can contribute...

Alesia : start 249 / surgeon's goal 138 / current 142
My justification for higher fat counts is that it's good for my skin. On the desert, like I am...It's important or I get lizard skin. LOL.
It is harder the second time around but you're doing it...You are really doing it...Awesome.
Keep up the good work and have a WONDERFUL weekend!
