What do you want to call our food thread? What did you eat today, Friday.

Hope all of you experiencing withdrawal feel more energetic and better soon!  Monday is my planned day of attack; I've already warned my family not to speak to me until spoken to!! 

B: protein shake (slowly getting back into this habit)
L: insides of a soft taco, 5 nacho chips with cheese
S: homemade turkey/veggie/barley soup
D: same as snack, tiny pc of spinach-cheese-garlic bread

I have gotten away from my 6 small, PLANNED meals.....my goal is to get back into that pattern of eating (and to exercise!!)

Sorry, Kathy, I don't have any creative suggestions for this thread. 

You guys keep this up and I may make you stick with Yummy, yummy food tummy thang

That is a great idea getting the family involved.  Again, we need to go back and make function like we did when we first had surgery... 

Again, how much protein are you taking in?  I am seeing everyone really eating way low and I am wondering if this is a factor of why you are eating other foods.  Remember if we get our protein in and eat it first we will not be hungry.

Check with your surgeon and see how much they want you to take in?  If that is not an option I do 110 grams a day and when I am working out hard I up it to 180 to 190.  

Take care,
Kathy

Hi Kath,

My head is stuffy so I'm not very creative.  I'll throw out something for our thread for a reminder - what about "Saturday-BOTT."  Okay, I know not very original but it would be the day and our Group for added incentive.  We could also combine our food entries along with our activity entries for the entire day (or prior day) or planned for the day.

My food was lots and lots of hot tea for stuffiness in my head with DaVinci Gourmet Sugar Free Carmel syrup.

B - 1/2 cup of cottage cheese.
S - 1 package of deli turkey.
L - 1 ounce of turkey with Kay's Naturals White Cheddar Kruncheez.
S - Fresh pear.
D - Morningstar soy sausages (6)
S - Chocolate Power Crunch bar

I've started logging everything into my computer version of FitDay.

Hi Cathy

Here is a big hug for you  We hope you feel better soon.  Where is your chicken soup girl?  Everyone knows  you eat Chicken soup when you are sick 

Hmmm,   I kinda like the idea of posting our food and exercise in one thread....  We know, to really get the weight off and more importantly keeping it off, both are a MUST!!!!

What do you guys think?

The name    you need to blow your nose, but it's better than yummy tummy   Come on members, we may be stuck with yummy tummy or BOTT day of the week

Take care,
Kathy
