What's on the menu today, RNY-ers?
Hi OH friends! WOW I am totally overwhelmed today with the beautiful comments on on my three month surgiversary post from last night. So thanks, all :) I know many of you daily posters had something kind to say. In fact, you all have motivated me so much that I am going to drag my self to the gym today although we got 7 inches of snow and I was thinking I wouldn't go brave the snow. So, THANKS!
B: 1.5 slices of Harris Teeter thick cut maplewood turkey bacon (45 calories, 6 g protein per slice)
L: Turkey chili (leftover from SuperBowl - but it's been frozen - I hope I don't die lol) with a sprinkle of onion and light cheddar cheese (chili 160 calories, 15 g protein and cheese 45 calories and 4 g protein)
D: I think I am going to have 4 oz of shrimp with some of my favorite pasta zero pasta.

This only gets me to 43 g of protein so it looks like I need a Premier Protein shake snack. I didn't have much hunger this weekend so my calories were low (around 500) but my protein was right around 60 g. I have to increase protein!

So today I am going to start decarbing, I need to get a handle on this since next week I will spend sometime with my mom (who isn't from ca) and she has already told me where she wants to go eat.... And there is talk of disneyland... And it will be an emotional time for the two of us (saying goodbye to my moms best friend since childhood who's cancer has spread to her brain) self-control will be key.... Anyways that was a lot of rambling lol!
