What's for lunch today?



Recommended Posts

Leftover home made cashew chicken, I'll post a pic of when I made it for dinner because lunch is long gone! I put it over riced cauliflower and it's AMAZING. I'm making low carb stew for dinner.

Snow day: Sitting here in my pajamas, watching netflix and shopping online all day. I can't get motivated to do anything and I have been wanting to eat all day. Munching on green pepper to satisfy the need to crunch something.

1oz BH's Lite Lacy Swiss

2oz BH's smoked turkey breast

1/2oz onion

1 1/2oz baby spinach

Wow some awesome ideas on here! I'm jealous of everyone who can have vegetables and carbs. I can have vegetables, but after hitting my Protein target have no room left... I think my target is higher than most maybe. I can dream though :-)

Now I can have salads again I had a chicken Caesar salad. I had some pre cooked diced chicken , toss with some romaine and shaved Parmesan. I like Marzettis yogurt based light Caesar dressing. I can’t eat what I used to, but I’m enjoying eating real food instead of shakes and such for sure!

I made turkey chili last week and froze half of it for next week maybe.

You will get there! Took me more than 18 months! Heck I still relies on shakes for more than a year. Still have them on occasion to meet protein goals and I'm over four years out

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
