Maybe we could make this a 90 days of summer promise; post what you ate yesterday!

I personally need this help. Last summer while preparing for my lapband I worked a lot. Then school started and I worked even more. This summer, HELP!!!! I'm very partially employed and I'm home, unstructured and at a loss what to eat. So I could really use some ideas and your help. I've joined a gym but I need meal ideas. I'm also going to the dietician soon and taking "notes" lol. Please post or e mail me directly. PLeeeeeese. Thanks
