    Mrs RDS got a reaction from JulieC74 in Please Share A Normal Eating Day   
    After 9 years with the band, I have a great eating routine.
    Breakfast: Protein shake of some sort - usually a fortified slim fast. I sometimes have 4 oz of Total Cereal, but the day always goes better for me with the band when I have liquid for Breakfast.< /p>
    *Snack: 100 Calorie Iced Coffee; or yogurt
    Lunch: "lunch To Go" tuna packs, if I eat at my desk. If I go out, I usually choose a cup of Soup or one piece of fish - no sides.
    *Snack: 3 or 4 oz of Almonds or Cashews; or yogurt; or sugar free pudding; or even another Slim Fast if I am really hungry.
    Dinner: dinner is a little tricky. I usually have 3 to 4 oz of whatever I cook for my husband. He's a meat, potatoes and one green vegetable guy. I have a spinach soup that I make weekly and keep on hand to eat when he is having something that I can't do at all - like a big greasy hamburger.
    *Snacks are important otherwise I am super hungry and eat meals too fast and they don't stay down.
    After dinner, I try to stick to milk or Water. Eating too late in the evening gives me acid reflux.
    I know you asked about a normal eating day, but for me Holidays are not even a challenge anymore.
    I just ask myself if I want to feed my muscles or my fat cells and that helps me make good choices - most of the time.
    Hope this helps!
