I am headed out of town as soon as I finish my post.  Can't wait to see the grands.

Tess you must be excited, anxious, and in a whirlwind all at the same time.  What an exciting trip for your son.  Enjoy your couple time while he enjoys Italy.

 

Since I am driiving I will throw protein bars in my car so my eats are

Breakfast      Protein drink

It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood. The sun is shining but Tess your cold Bear butt has shown up here and brought some howling winds with it. BBBBBRRRRRR. Today's lunchtime walk will definitely be indoors. I'm thiinking that the new vitamin routine and added supplments are working. My energy level has boosted and my general dispostion is much sunnier.

Decaf Iced tea is my best friend. I think I need one of those hydration backpacks full of it so I don't have to wander into the break room as often to fill my cup up. I went trhough a full 1/2 gallon at work yesterday. Today is looking to be the same or possibly a little more.

Commute: Coffee

Breakfast:  Oatmeal

snack:       Protein Bar

Lunch:       Progresso Soup (not sure which flavor I grabbed this morning)

snack:       Greek Yogurt & Almonds

Dinner:      Crock Pot Chicken & small salad

Good evening BOTT friends,

It's late night, and I now have time to post my meals for today.  I ordered my Quest bars and can't wait to get them.  I am SO behind in the "what's new" area of post WLS eating.  I will be 13 years post op next month, and I am just learning about Quest protein bars, and only today did I find out what Vitatops were.  I'd been seeing it posted on Tess's eats, and had no idea what it was.  Sounds like something I might wanna try.

I got in more food today than I have since I finished the pouch test.  It definitely worked for me, as I get full so fast again.  I'm loving it, and I will not resort to drinking with meals again, because that was one of my biggest mistakes.

Today I had:

B:  1 egg with 2 tbsp turkey sausage crumbles, and 1 tbsp low fat cheddar

S:  protein shake

L:  4 oz burger (no bun) with 1 sl baby swiss cheese, mustard, and 1 tbsp each pickle relish and ketchup

S:  1 med cucumber sliced, with vinegar, S&P

D:  Wendy's Berry Almond Chicken salad (460 cals full size w/dressing)  ate 1/2 and saving other half for tomorrow

S:  protein shake w/1 tbsp peanut butter

 

Hope everyone had a productive day, and sweet dreamzzzz!

B: egg beaters, turkey, 1 slice rf cheese, whole wheat dinner roll, oil 230

S: grapefruit and sugar free angel food cake 200

S: fat free egg salad, crackers 250

L: 4 oz beef, whole wheat roll 280 

S: veggie soup, chicken breast 300

D: salad, 3 slices rf cheese, 2 clementines 250
