Here's my dinner, chicken taco without the tortilla, and with the tortillas in the background! Lol. I forgot to weigh it, but I obviously didn't get through it all. I ate maybe 2/3 of it. It was good!!

Did you do your workout? I'm currently waiting for my food to digest to dance. Lol

Yes. I made myself do it ..lol.. once I got started it was fine, I was just so tired today, but I don't want to start giving in to any excuses.

I have started doing my workouts as soon as I get home then take my shower. If I wait till after dinner, I feel lazy..lol..

it is easier for me to do this because I don't have hungry little ones waiting for dinner.

Yummy 😋 that looks so good.

I took photos of my dinner too. My chicken breast stuck to the pan because I just used the Parmesan cheese without the bread crumbs for mine. It was good anyway. My hubby's has panko bread crumbs mixed in and turned out better. Riced cauliflower and broccoli on the side.

I wanted to share a new habit I am trying to form. I have always been a night owl and most nights only getting 6 hours of sleep. This is not healthy and I knew it, but I didn't realize how much it could also effect weight loss.

This is just one article, but there are many.

I have started going to bed between 10-10:30 every weeknight. At first I was waking up at 3:30-4:00am ..lol.. but I have made myself stay in bed until 6:00 and the past two mornings I have slept straight through until my alarm went off. It has been years since I have slept 7-8 hours on a regular basis. I hope to see a difference and I hope to stick with this. If I am even 80% successful I will be happy.

Yours look awesome. I love Parmesan cheese with a bit of a burn. It tastes pretty good. I haven't tried riced cauliflower yet. I'm wondering if my kids would notice.

You'll have to tailer your sleep schedule to your work schedule. My husband used to work nights for six years. He's having a hard time getting sleep now, his internal clock keeps him up through the night. But he's slowly adjusting. How many hours of sleep do you think you're getting?

Unless I binge on netflix, I usually am in bed about 10:30 at the latest and up between 6 and 7. Sometimes it's too much sleep for me. Last night I went to bed at 12 (watching my show) and naturally woke up at 6:45...almost 7 hours.

Im ready for some coffee now.

That is my goal. To consistently get at least 7 hours a night instead of the 5-6 which is my norm. I have always functioned fine on 6, but I want to see if this makes a difference since I keep reading about how important sleep is.

Y'all food look good I need recipes and not Pinterest I really don't see anything I like

Hey lady. My chicken tacos are just chicken breast in the slow cooker with a jar of salsa verde, any brand. I like Herdez the best though. I just throw some lettuce, Tomato, and cheese with it.

I'll do my best to post my recipes to for everyone.

Yonight I'll be making Lentil salad. Here's the recipe I'm using. I haven't tried this yet myself. So we'll see if it's a good one or not. 😊

I'd love to hear how it goes for ya. I won't be doing my lentils in the oven though...just on the stove top. Thankfully I'm off earlier today, so I can get them started in time.

That is how I would cook them also. I know he is gonna want this over rice though. I haven't made him rice since my surgery, I guess a little won't hurt him. He is trying to follow my diet, at least at home.

I am sure he misses black bean and rice.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
