daily menus?



Recommended Posts

:)

Hi everyone, I was just wondering how many of you follow a daily menu regimen? I think I need one, I have been keeping a food journal and notice my "bad" time is between 6pm and 8pm, when I get "head" munchies..

Can anyone tell me what to do and what they eat on a weekly basis?

Thanks, Sheila:help:

I don't really have a daily menu, but some staples in my diet are:

Breakfast- Wheat Crackers, Cheddar cheese, fruit or Scrambled eggs and fruit

Lunch- More crackers, lunch meat and cheese with fruit

or salad with meat and cheese low cal dressing and fruit

Dinner- Lean meat, potato, Pasta or brown rice, veggie and fruit

At night I have gotten into a habit of drinking a cup of hot cocoa- sugar free fat free with fatfree reddi whip- puts me right to sleep.

Hope this helps

My eating plan was a little off for a few months (therfore my loss stalled!) so I am back on the horse. Right now I am eating Protein, veggies, low fat dairy and whole grains.

I have been logging my foods in my journal, feel free to peruse.

I will say my favorite dessert is what I call the frozen Peanut Butter cup. I take 1 sf ff fudgesicle, 1T natural PB and melt it in the microwave for a bout 15 seconds. Mix hat up and fold in 2T lite cool whip. Freeze it until ice cream consistency (or less if you want it to be like a mousse). It is so good and hits the sweet spot at night.

My meals right now are a lot of salads with grilled chicken. I also love making fajitas and eating them without the tortillas, maybe adding some LF cheddar and light sour cream. So yummy! I marinade the chicken in some lime juice, cumin, cayenne & oil. Nice flavor if grilled with peppers, onions and garlic.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
