Good morning CC and the rest of the gang. CC I don't know how you survive on so few calories, are you 4 foot nothing and 100 lbs?
Went and did the Power Weight class at the gym last night. Standing in front of that mirror with my muscles fully engaged really emphasized the bat wings. UGH. Made my think I need surgery!!
5 kms at the gym this morning and a walk at lunch today.
Post Op 21+ mos
B1 - Premier Protein Shake

Total Cal 1031, Carbs48, Protein 124
Quantity of food seems right, but calories seem low. Leaves room to add something if necessary I guess.
Over 100 lbs lost! and 13 lbs below goal weight!
Not 4' nothing, but heading that way, lol. I always tell my husband that he's getting taller, not that I am getting shorter. I'm low in calories because I'm trying to combat the 5lbs I gained over the holidays with treats, and being sick for almost 3 weeks without really doing much gym time.
I've been really low carbing and truthfully I've been skipping snacks because I'm not hungry. As long as I get my minimum protein in and fluids I'm not going to stress about it for now.
I would have to have arms as big as Arnie's to hide my batwings.
Did you make your Chicken Cordon Swiss. I just bought DH some on sale at Zehrs.

No I got it at Costco. Barbers - 250 calories, 10 g carbs, 21 gr protein. It's actually really good.
My Trucker was an Ass Hat again this morning. I gave him a gun show and told him I needed batwing surgery. He didn't know what I was talking about so I gave them a swing....he says oh I thought they were part of your muscles 
when I put my arm down he pinched my fat at my armpit/boob and said something about that, can't remember his words.
I said you just missed an opportunity to compliment me, his response was "yes I did because I'm a man and we're stupid....unless you're a dream guy and they don't exist" I need to get him some serious training!!
