No, I eat a LOT for a bandster

breakfast: a chocolate Peanut Butter and banana Protein Shake

mid morning: small handful raw cashews

lunch: zucchini and leek Soup

afternoon: leftover green bean and zucchini salad (just 1/4 cup) and an iced coffee made with skim milk, and later, a teeny piece of chocolate

dinner: lamb shank, lentil and pearl barley stew

I did the most torturous workout today with a 20kg sandbag, and its left me quite hungry. I'm maintaining now so as long as I dont gain, and I dont fill my stomach to uncomfortably full, I really try not to worry that I'm eating too much. In fact, I must need it for the amount of exercise I do because I've actually lost a bit lately.

Not such a great day for me today, no time to eat properly. its 115 degrees here, we went to the beach:

Breakfast: oatmeal with organic peanut butter/maple Syrup

during the day: handful of cheezels, an icrecream, 2 diet cokes

Dinner: (will be) salmon done in foil on the BBQ with coconut milk/sweet chilli/lemongrass and coriander, and a salad. I'll serve rice, probably skip it though.

I am hanging out for a nice very cold glass of wine (its SO HOT, 4th day in a row over 110).

today's my weekly "cheat day" so it won't be good lol...

b: iced chai tea latte & a caramel macchiato biscotti from starbucks (460 cal) :rolleyes:

l: i'll probably order a salad or something, around 400 cal

d: going to bonefish..again...won't be good. i'll order crab cakes (i'll eat a half) and pick on these cheese potatoes. i have no idea how many calories, but it isn't low. i would guess it's in the 900 range. :eek::eek:

Total estimated cal: 1760 (i'll just round up to 2000 though just in case if my figure for dinner is off a bit).

Tomorrow I go back to working out and making some better choices, but i know i'll "cheat" a litte at dinner because i'm making:

Saturday Dinner: 1/2 slice of pizza and a salad. Will have some of the weight watcher apple and pear crisp i'm making for my company.

Sunday Dinner: Latin burgers (i'll eat half a burger), but it has mexican cheese and onions and jalapeno peppers on it. I'll use a flat bread that's low cal for it.

I'll be strict for Breakfast and lunch for both days and will exercise with my at home 3 mile walking tape (with toning bands).

Ok, see ya Monday!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
