Whatcha' Eating?

Another board has what are you eating threads almost everyday. I was thinking we could have the same thing here. I will try to keep up with mine. It might keep me clean about how good or bad I am doing with my Protein vs calories and such.

Feel free to put yours down. You don't have to put calories and protein if you want, just what you have been eating. It might help newbies get an idea of what we eat after surgery.

Newbies feel free to post what you eat too! Even if you are pre op it helps to see it up sometimes in making sure you are staying on track. You might want to note you are pre-op so people are not wondering about a large intake than a post op.

I had my first fall off the wagon day yesterday. What a disaster day.

Breakfast: Back and Starbucks. :001_tt2: Cream mocha with 3 scoops Protein. 300 cals :fencing: but 18 grams protein.

Grazing food: I bought a pumpkin scone to give to a coworker who loves them. She was not here today though. Of course I could have given it to someone else or threw it away but no I grazed on it the whole day while drinking Water so it slid right through. There was 400 calories in that thing. I am so angry at myself. Scones work but bread does not? Whatever. I am over it and that won't happen again.

Lunch: Funny. I should not have been hungry from grazing but I hate 2 oz pureed chicken and 2 oz pureed carrots.

Dinner: I guess I was finally full from all the BS I ate. I had two meatballs with some spagetti sauce and little parmasean.

So you had a bad day - acknowledge it and move on - don't let it ruin all the good work you've done!

:lol0::thumbup1: on admitting you've been at Starbucks! LOL

I figured I would post early since I already admitted my Starbucks problem. The problem with me going all the time is not about money, my husband doesn't care about the money either. After all our grocery bill has dropped by about $40 a week or more. It's about the fact I should be having shakes in the morning made at home. They are lower in calories. Period. Tomorrow there will be NO Starbucks. I will make my shake and that is just all there is to it.

Ok here is today:

Breakfast: You guessed it. I won't bother with the details. It had 300 cals and 18 grams Protein but I didn't drink it all so....

Lunch: Hummus and 1 slice swiss.

Dinner: 2 meatballs.

I am not hungry today and didn't eat much because of bathroom issues making me feel sick. Don't worry we will be discussing that at follow up tomorow.

I am also a fan of unjury. I mix mine with water too save on calories. Chocolate is my favorite. I usually freeze this a bit to make a bit of a slushy. I actually look forward to my unjury shake.

Well, you fell off the wagon. . . it's over, get up, get back on the wagon and keep going. . . you'll be ok, your human.

Greek yogurt, 1 Banana, 1/4 blueberries, 1/2 cup skim milk and unjury vanilla powder thrown into the magic bullet. Lots of protein as I was short yesterday trying to get it all in today.

Steph --

Hope you don't mind that I merged your thred "Whatcha eating today" with DowninSoCal's "Whatcha' eating" - that way everyone's posts are in the same thread and easier for everyone to see what we're eating.

Celebrating the anniversary of my freedom today with chocolate, champagne, and a bubble bath..Lovin' it!

Today I had yogurt with my crushed up pill for arthritis pain (shoulders)later 1/2 can Ensure w fiber, later a baby bel with some applesauce. A late lunch of 3 low fat Breton Crackers topped with light smoked salmon cream cheese and a top layer of salmon. Supper was 3/4 cup Wonton soup - I ate three tiny meat balls that were inside the noodles (but not the noodles) and a nice shrimp from my husbands meal. snack was whey protein in 1/3 cup skim milk.

total about 670 calories and 60 grams protein.

Very satisfying,

Cheers,

Donna
