Struggling



Recommended Posts

It's been quite some time since I have been on here, but figured it was time since I am really not losing.

I need ideas for satisfying lunch meals on the go.

I seem to be getting very low on energy and I have a 12 hour a day job with no time for low energy. I eat lunch while I am on the run or reading email, etc. so any ideas you have that are easy would be great.

lunch is easy!!! It just takes preperation the night before. I do a lot of chicken or tuna salad, light on the mayo. I have a few Fiber crackers with it.

You could have a reduced fat cheese stick and some deli turkey rolled up.

I make chilli and freeze small servings from the pot to take to work. Put some cheese on top and a few fritos.

When we grill out, I cook an extra chicken breast so I can have chicken a cheese quesadilla the next day or two for work.

Walmart has these stuffed chicken breasts in the freezer section, they are NOT the ones with all the high fat breading, I can cook them in the toaster oven at work or make it the night before and bring to reheat.

To me, lunch is the easiest meal of the day. Breakfast is hard, I hate eggs, so have cottage cheese and a south beach high Protein bar. dinner is hard because what the kids will eat is different than what I can eat. At least at lunchtime I can plan ahead.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
