Last night’s dinner. Kind of boring. Grilled chicken thigh, which I just season with salt and pepper, and some roasted green Beans. I do some of these chicken thighs almost every week and take them to work for lunch. Simple and tasty.

Great minds think a like! We had convection bake roasted chicken thighs (marinated in fresh orange juice, olive oil, chili flakes) with corn + green Beans tonight. Leftovers will be great for lunch salads. Agree. Simple and tasty. ;]

Wasn’t planning on Breakfast other than a Protein Shake but got strong armed into it. Went with a Portuguese style tofu scramble: 2 planks of tofu, spinach, Tomato, jalapeño, and chorizo. Focused on the tofu, spinach and tomatoes with the occasional bite of chorizo.

Although I have a pretty substantial reserve of this bread I'm still rationing 😂

Joking. I have been doing this since the I started buying this bread. It's too thick for me to eat 2 slices in a sandwich so I only use 1, here's how:

Lightly toast both sides then cut with a sharp serrated knife

* I also added log into (which I never do anymore) to show what a zero *net* carb & 150 cal Breakfast sandwich looks like

Red lentil penne with some leftover Tomato sauce and cashewsan. The majority of the penne went into the dish pictured above.

I hate how much time food preparing needs. So this evening I cooked enough for several meals. Luckily I had everything I needed still at home. However, with the salad bar still closed the food at the cafeteria is not really what I'd call both healthy & satisfying (seems like it's either/or) and tomorrow I have another 24 h shift. Saturdays are usually the worst. Well, one can hope...

A little off topic, but I was at a diner for lunch and I ordered something I thought I might eat some off. After they came with the food they asked if I was sure I wanted a child portion. I did know it was child portion when I ordered 🤣🤣.

They gave me this huuuuuuge dish, i ate like 1/3 of it. So I confirm, we eat "child portions"😅😅

It was only like 7 euros for it, which is pretty cheap! And I have seen smaller portions servered in "adult" size meals for 4 times the price🤫

Well that’s the prettiest presentation of Diner food I have ever seen. Lol

Was it good?

salad lunch for today featuring cabbage slaw, dates, edamame, roasted turkey, green and red peppers with lemon olive oil dressing. This will last all weekend at ¼ servings each. Very fulfilling and satisfies that crunch! AND, my crunch to get a project deadline out. Yikes! No time for kitchen duty! Haha.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
