So what's on the menu for today?

For dinner we are having chili I had in the freezer. They can have that or frito chili pie. For lunch since I am on my own and hubs isn't home today I am having white Beans and ham . It's c-c-c-old outside and it sounded wonderful to me. :D I love having stuff in the freezer, makes life so much easier.

So what's everyone else having?

I work at a hospital and have the pleasure(?) of a full-service cafeteria for lunch. Lately I've been really enjoying a cottage cheese salad with sliced chicken breast and a hard boiled egg mixed in, all lightly topped with fresh salsa. It goes down easy, is filling, and is a refreshing meal.

I'm a bit chilly today too so for lunch I'm having a 1/2 can of Hormel Turkey Chili (just found it at the store this weekend and I love it). For dinner I am thinking about having grilled grouper and sauteed veggies. Breakfast was 2 hard boiled eggs...not sure about Snacks yet - I will figure that part out as I go along.

Breakfast was a sugar free carnation instant made with skim milk. I am not much of a breakfast person on weekday morning so I find this to be the easiest!!! Mid morning I had a small banana.

Now for lunch I am sitting at my desk eating 2 oz of tuna sparked with fat free cesear dressing, garlic powder and minced onion, no fat cottage cheese and 5 organic wheat crackers finishes up my 131 calorie meal.

I will have a reduced sodium V-8 and fat free pudding for a snack and dinner tonight will be a Boca burger (meatless flame broiled variety) and some sort of veggtable.

I tend to go simple during the week.... its just easier for me.

Try grating a zucchini and using it in place of the Pasta. That way you get your veggie and a semblance of pasta. Spaghetti squash works well too.

Today's menu is looking something like this:

B: 1/4 cup Egg Beaters with 4 slices of turkey bacon

L: Leftover chicken breast cooked with salsa, taco seasoning, and added taco sauce to moisten it.

D: Probably the same as lunch since I hate two portions left. If not, I will pop open a can of chicken, add a dab of Texas Pete Wing Sauce, Ranch Dressing, and shredded cheese. Then, mocrowave it for a minute and a half.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
