What's on your menu today (Thursday) RNYers?

Hi everyone, how are all my fav RNYers?

Thank you all for your well wishes for my MIL, that was really wonderful of you all. She is still in hospital, still in pain which they are trying to control and she has the flu so she is in isolation. She unfortunately has A LOT of scar tissue from previous surgeries due to the Colitis/Crohns and I spoke to the Surgeon and because she is 77 yrs old and the scar tissue is so bad he won't operate on her. So the bottom line is these flare ups will continue to happen. I am not happy about this and want a second opinion.

Accountability: 100% on plan - had another small pouch day

QOTD: Phone call, text or email? I hate phone calls! HATE THEM. I spent 99% of my teenage years fighting with my sister to get the phone so I could talk with my friends but now in the digital age of cell phones I only want to be contacted by text, email or Messenger thank you very much.

Time since surgery: 4 yrs + 5 mos

B: lots & lots of decaf + vanilla PP used as creamer

L: chicken flavoured bone broth

D: 3 slices of turkey breast + swiss cheese + mustard (meat roll ups!)

S: Activia yogurt

TOTALS: 773 calories, 128 protein, 32 carbs

V: PatchMD patches are on + extra oral Dry D3 and extra oral B12

E: no exercise, still resting my back

Smile its contagious - have a great day!

Photo Friday idea: Post a pic of something in your house that is really old. Could be something given to you by a Grandparent/Parent, could be an antique you bought, could be something you found on a hike. Get creative!

I'm exhausted this morning. I felt fine all day yesterday, ate my normal things, and then around 2 AM I woke up dizzy, nauseous, and needing to be in the bathroom repeatedly. My stomach was cramped and painful from gas, and I was miserable. I'm feeling better now, just exhausted. I wish I dared call off work today but I'm supposed to give a training demonstration and I feel well enough now to not want to bother rescheduling. But what the heck was that??? I had marinated chicken breast and green beans for dinner, then water the rest of the night.

Qotd: I'd much rather text! Or email because I tend to get wordy (I'm sure you've all noticed!). If someone calls me I assume the worst, that someone is dead or in the hospital.

I'm going to baby my stomach a little bit today I think, even though I feel ok now.

morning: Protein shake, then tea

lunch: cottage cheese

dinner: I'll see if I feel up to leftover chicken, otherwise I'll have Greek L&F

Oh no!! Good luck with the training you are delivering and hope you continue to feel ok.

The training is early in the day, if my stomach is bothering me afterward I?ll leave work. It just took a lot to coordinate everyone?s schedules for the training and rescheduling would be more of a nightmare than just toughing it out! But so far this morning I feel ok, just tired from being up through the night.

eeeps. I wonder if you had a bit of a stomach bug? this is seriously and unreasonably my biggest fear--LOL...getting a stomach flu and NOT being able to puke.

Hard to say! I don't feel "sick" but I did feel like there was something in me my body didn't want in me, and I was purging it out. I didn't have any extra bites or anything that wasn't on my posted menu from yesterday, so I really don't know.

I hope you continue to feel better. May be a stomach bug or something.

Well, stomach bugs are unacceptable! :P

I agree!

Sorry you weren't feeling well last night, Cassie. I hope you continue to feel better today and that your training session goes well.
