I had a turkey roll-up (15g protein). :)

Tuna with low fat mayo and Avocado

I'm boring, I usually have (at least during the week)

--tuna salad or chicken salad (both made with guacamole or mayo) or sliced deli meat - about 1.5 ounces of whatever protein and

--a babybel cheese and

--some form of soft fruit or veggies. Often a couple of prunes, the last few days I've been bringing a broccoli salad I picked up at the deli counter at our local natural foods store. For veggies, I can't usually eat more than a tablespoon (I eat my meat and cheese first).

Went to Chick Fil A, ordered a side salad and a 4 piece grilled nuggets. I can eat the 4 nuggets but only half the salad.

I had jumbo king prawns, cooked in a little coconut oil and balsamic vinegar with a tsp of tzatziki!!

Pre-op, last week my NUT told me to eat more beans....so today is bean soup with garden vegetables. 90 calories a cup.

I keep a rotisserie chicken in my fridge, so I always have a quick go to meal. I eat it as is, on salad, with cheese, etc. I also love tuna salad with an "everything" cracker (Milton brand at Walmart - those are my new favorite). I just bought some frozen marinated tilapia from Sam's that are individually wrapped. Easy to defrost and cook for a quick meal. To get in some of my veggies/fruits I've been juicing. My favorite is apple/carrot/spinach.

that sounds good, what brand do you buy?

Homemade.......my sweetie Tony loves to cook, so he makes soups and other delicious things for me. This soup has diced spiral ham, which he sautés with diced carrots, diced celery, diced onion, minced garlic, and diced bell peppers in red and green for color. Once he puts that in the pot he adds whatever beans are on hand. This week he took a large can of navy beans and a large can of kidney beans and rinsed them before adding them to the pot.(this reduces the total calorie count). He also added a large can of diced tomatoes. I suppose you could put it in a crock pot, but he put this in a large kettle and added enough water to make it soupy. Then he threw in a heap of black pepper because we like pepper here, and let all this yumminess simmer for a couple of hours. The nutritional values are in the database of myfitnesspal.com under the name of TONY'S HOMEMADE BEAN SOUP WITH GARDEN VEGETABLES. And it makes enough to last a few days.

Sounds amazing. Thanks so much for sharing!!
