Joe reacted to catfish87 in Whats your Menu
I switch schedules as well....shiftworker for 20+ years now. 5am start times (when I'm on days) make for a short morning workout for me, so I get the changing schedule thing, BUT I could find other excuses. You just gotta do whats most important to you.....
If I'm "watching what I eat":
Breakfast = I will usually have a home made Protein shake/smoothie. I use One scoop of my favorite Protein powder (25 grams), a combo of some of the following, half a bananna/blueberries/granola/strawberries/peanut butter, some almond milk, crushed ice in the Ninja. Keeps me satisfied until lunch.
lunch = some Protein like baked/broiled fish, tuna salad, chicken salad, turkey breast, and usually some veggie. Broccoli, green Beans, etc. OR some home made Soup...I love my home cooked lentil Soup with smoked jowl pieces, or chili.
dinner = maybe some more grilled/baked fish, rotisserie chicken, slow cooker pork roast occasionally, usually a starch of some sort.
I CAN eat just about anything...pizza, Pasta, rice, fried foods, Cookies, cake, you name it. There's only a very few things that are "off limits" to my band restriction level. My band helps restrict the volume I eat. I HAVE TO CHOOSE to limit how often I have them.....
I agree completely with the idea you really need to get in to have your band checked as soon as is possible. Maybe an adjustment will get you back on track. For me...a properly adjusted band makes all the difference in the world.
Best wishes!
