Menus and Miles Thursday March 17th

Just about ready to leave for the hospital.  Fortunately we only live 15 minutes from it.

Hello to all of my Lightweights!!!  If you are visiting WELCOME....PLEASE JOIN US and POST!!!!!

Writing everything down has helped me so much!!! I would really like to see some more posters.  Seeing what is working for others helps the rest of us put some variety into our meals.   It's very important until you reach Goal to figure out your Calories, Fats, Carbs, and Proteins so that you know what your body needs to lose and then to maintain!!!!

RNY Maintenance   


B:  I'm guessing IV's....LOL
L:  They told me to bring a Protein drink since I can't have gingerale

Today no baking..only vegetable carbs!

 

It's really hard to get away from the carbs once you let them back into your menus.  Unfortunately I don't think any of us can go carbless so we need to be able to just learn to control how many we eat in a day and not feel quilty.  Just keep in mind that they might not effect the scale during the honeymoon period so we can't fool ourselves that our bodies can handle them because eventually if we don't take control of them it will catch up on us.

Sometimes I tell ya I don't know whether I'm coming ...or going ... Ure in my prayers today Roz dear !

Do the feed the chickens special food to make their eggs organic?

I will be sending you good vibes all day long, Roz!  I have a quiet day in the office (I hope!).  I commit to a good workout tonight and no melted cheese snack right before bed (a new disturbing behavior).

Had some strawberry stevia drink mix, a couple propel zeros (these are amazing especially the peach, berry, and pome-blueberry) and plan to have more to drink, including the other half of my protein shake from this morning (another 12g protein)
