Today I packed the almonds, the Jerky, and the pineapple from last night.

Pepper stuffed with chopped jalapeños, salsa, and lightlife veggie crumbles (I cooked the whole pepper with 1/3 cup crumbles, 1/2 cup salsa, and a jalapeño and topped with 2 slices of pepper Jack. Only packed a half with a cup spinach topped with almonds and cranberries and roasted red pepper dressing). Then we have Soup, a Protein Shake, a boss cookie, peatos, and not pictured is my smoothie with handful each spinach and kale, a cup frozen mixed berries, 10oz unsweetened vanilla almond milk, and a scoop lemonade flavored Syntrax Protein Powder.

We’ll see if the pineapple, jerky, and almonds get eaten. 😂

Breakfast Time! (or lunchtime…however u want to look at it…)

Watermelon, feta, dried blueberries, fresh mint, with a healthy squeeze of lemon juice: 134 calories. Plan on eating it all.

Kids had pigs in a blanket and since I haven’t willingly ate a hot dog made from an animal in years so I had about half an imitation crab stick, 1.5tsp honey mustard dressing, and 1/4 cup Brussels sprouts tossed in Parmesan and olive oil. Included is a rough estimate of the calories.
After dinner I’m still about 500 calories short for today 😩 so who knows what I’ll have for a late night snack.

I’m usually never hungry when I wake up for work but I’d already been up a couple hours before making the kids dinner. They had sweet stuffed sweet potatoes and sloppy joes made with TVP. I chose a savory loaded sweet potato instead. The black Beans are tossed with cumin and tajin and the sweet potatoes had pumpkin pie spice on them when roasting.

I’ve only managed 4 bites so I'm packing the rest for work along with some roasted bell pepper strips.

Dinner! This is the fabled “red bag” Aldi chicken fillets. They are very good.
I’m still not cooking much so it was prepared in the Airfryer. No afters, I ate it all as this was my first “true” meal today.

What’s happened that this is your first true meal @GreenTealael? I’ve obviously missed something? Are you ok?

Made the kids pizza rolls for dinner. I had part of a bag of sad looking Caesar salad that I added some equally sad looking kale to. 😂 Topped it with some sesame, pumpkin, and hemp seeds. Ended up eating a total of 2 pizza rolls with the salad one of which was eaten screaming hot out of the oven while serving kids dinner. 😂🤷‍♀️

Thank goodness. I thought you may have been unwell or had surgery.

Awww thank you for your concern ❤️
I am well! I’m also just not very hungry lately, I think it’s seasonal.

How is your recovery going?

Ordered a salad for dinner before work and I’ll be taking at least part of it with me.
Romaine, iceberg, and carrot blend with mandarin oranges, strawberries, dried cranberries, candies pecans, blue cheese, and grilled chicken with balsamic dressing.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
