dinner: panzenella salad, yum!
386 cals for the bowl.
(i normally cut up the buratta and drizzle balsamic on it, but it wouldn't have made a pretty picture so i left the buratta in one chunk and added the balsamic after i took the pic)
ate about 1/2 of it.
again, so yum!!

Breakfast of champions (ok not really lol) : chicharron
i have not been eating much lately and felt i needed a calorie boost. this tiny snack tupperware cup of 3 peices of the stuff is 111 calories.
(my cat sorta photobombed the shot haha)

Brunch during a recent vacation
golden milk latte w/ baby biscotti, scrambled eggs and challah toast (mine) Also a mocha & apple cinnamon challah French toast (BF’s)
My only gripe is every time I order a sugar free drink, I feel the physical effects like there’s still sugar in it. Orders from places with house made SF syrups usually trigger dumping but this never happens at franchise stores.

Surgery was yesterday, and it went great. My pain is minimal. Feels like i just had some dental work done, but the pain meds are really doing their job! I had a quick post-op visit this morning, where they removed my gauze and gave me a compression garment. I will wear the garment 24/7 for the next 2 weeks, After that, I will just wear it when I'm sleeping.
Not sure if I mentioned, but for the fat transfer, She used Lipo to take the fat from my inner knees. She said that knee fat is stubborn which makes it great to use for tat transfers. I also get the added bonus of getting a little jump start on my thigh lift,
I go back on Tuesday to get my sutures removed. Also, I'm allowed to take a shower tomorrow night! Woo hoo!!
That's all for now!! 🙂

Hey!! So excited to see your results!!!!
Good luck tomorrow!! Keep us updated!!🙏🏻

That pork belly looks delicious @Tomo but what a huge portion. No wonder you had left overs. (Left overs are the bomb!)
I wonder if it as the fat on the pork that caused the foamies for you? It does for me sometimes. I accidentally ate a chunk of fat on a beef cheek at a gala lunch. The function room was so dark I didn’t see it & there was enough meat in my bite to disguise it until it was too late. It was stuck for hours. Very unpleasant.

finally got a chance to eat something today (gym, vet appt and grocery shopping kept me occupied until now).
anyway i was "starving" by the time i got home and i seriously wolfed this down:
1/2 a bagel w/ butter, havarti, and a dollop of labneh: 348 calories and ate it all!

Japanese restaurant. Ordered miso ramen with tonkotsu. It came with a whopping 5 slices of grilled pork, egg and more. I ate one slice of the pork, a little of the noodles and then just drank some of the broth. Took it home and enjoyed it later (little by little lol). Unfortunately, on the way home I still got the foamies. First time in months. Didn't last long but it was extremely uncomfortable.  

I wish there was a drool emoji. I would use it all the time on this thread

Vegan calzones with diced onion, baby bellas, and green bell peppers mixed with chopped up vegan Breakfast sausage and marinara in homemade dough. It made 8. I’m eating 1, meal prepping 2 for lunches this week, and freezing the rest.

I made General Tso Tofu during meal prep (for someone else). Instead of dredging and frying (favorite version) I simply pressed and pan seared.

I’ve just decided today that my kids are lame-o’s when it comes to food and going places. We went for Mexican for dinner and y’all, the amount of “I don’t like this. Can we go home?” 🙃😒
I need lunch date people. Or maybe I should try dating. 😬

Hey!! So excited to see your results!!!!
Good luck tomorrow!! Keep us updated!!🙏🏻

That’s so funny @Starwarsandcupcakes. Bed pads. 😂 We’ve always called them Chux as that as the original brand of the kitchen cloth. These were a cheap roll of an unknown brand from Kmart. Do the same job of course.
Had the labneh with baby Roma tomatoes & basil fur lunch yesterday. Very yummy. The sprinkles on my board is my exuberant grinding of sea salt & pepper.

I really wanted a sandwich today!
Turkey and cheese … hero/sub/hoagie (what are they called where you live?)

Japanese Breakfast

The first is leftover Indian inspired chicken, rice, and sautéed zucchini.
The second is a bowl of soy ginger chicken and broccoli and a bowl with cottage cheese, strawberries, and crushed graham crackers.

Rotisserie chicken, Persian cucumbers w/EBTB seasoning and quinoa

Pita crackers, Avocado w/EBTB seasoning and lemon pepper salmon

5 years out from sleeve. Breakfast:) Avocado toast on focaccia with pickled onions, feta and red pepper flakes. Some salad topper pecans, pepitos and cranberries, tomatoes and cukes...and a mini glass of powerhouse super juice. Yum!

Went to a Peruvian/Japanese fusion rooftop restaurant yesterday for lunch. (Not the best day but interesting views over the city.) I wondered how the fusion would work but it did. Still very obvious Japanese or Peruvian foods but a sharing of some styles. Like a bao bun with a Peruvian filling. I can’t eat spicy foods so shared some edamame to begin & had parmesan & garlic scallops (sorry no pxts) & sesame crusted tuna. I about half the tuna, the two scallops & probably too many edamame 😁. All very yummy.

Lettuce wrap with a veggie burger 159 cal total. I could not finish it without being uncomfortable. First meal of the day is always "tight". Sometimes it's annoying.

Soooooo expensive but I couldn't resist...

My lovely meals from the past few days! 🙃 Transient ischemic bowel (or that’s what they told me) so I won myself a 3 1/2 day hospital stay with 2 being npo.
I’ll spare you the first meal of blended chicken noodle Soup (it was terrible!).
The next meal was “ground beef stroganoff”, mashed potatoes and gravy, green Beans, and broccoli with apple crisp (I had the rest with Peanut Butter and ice cream before bed).
Also, those hospital eggs are DRY and the peanut butter went into my oatmeal.

Hot Protein oats with some almond butter, banana and dark chocolate.
