Merry Christmas all! Today I wish everyone a happy day. Yesterday, I grazed for the first time since July. I logged this morning what I could remember. (I owned it) and realized that even though it was way over the top, it ws still far less than I could/would eat in a single meal at a restaurant previously. Today we are back on the wagon.

QOTD: Take your pick... what is the best and/or the worst gift you have ever received?

The best gift I've received was for no reason at all. My boss allowed me to use his time share week at a resort in Orlando. It was a much needed break for my husband and I. The worst? A set of broken canisters from my future in-laws. (They haven't gotten much nicer). LOL

M1: Coffee, Vanilla PP shake and Miralax

M2: Rib Eye

M3: Skipping

M4: PP Shake

M5: TBD. Definitely smoked turkey.

S: None

E: Nothing formal.

Water and vits on track.

Merry Christmas everyone and a heartfelt hope that we all enjoy a healthy, peaceful and joyous 2018!!

Fondue was a great hit last night, everyone seemed to enjoy it. We had a strong and outspoken group, so it was an evening of great political discussion...which I love:-) Everyone left late so I awoke this morning to a disaster in the kitchen/dinning room, but that's okay it was worth it.

QOTD-I am having trouble coming up with a best and worst gift as well, but it's a fun question. Sorry about the broken canisters Ladyblue:-)

B-Plain greek yogurt w/SF pudding and pumpkin seeds

L-scrambled eggs with lemon pepper

S-Chai tea w/cream & stevia

D-Christmas dinner of prime rib was cancelled at my uncle's assisted living due to a flu outbreak, no visitors. My mom and I might go see a movie now that we don't have any plans, not sure about dinner though!!

E-walk with my dog

Have a wonderful day!

Merry Christmas! I hope everyone has a fantastic day!

QOTD: Worst gift was a $1 store wind chime from my ex-husband. Best gift was my Apple watch which I just received this year from DH#2.

B: coffee w/HH + protein bar

L: eggs and bacon

D: prime rib and a bit of the sides

S: no snacks today unless I get starving because last night I ate a bit too much and made myself feel miserable. Taking it slow and easy today. Protein, protein, protein.

E: Nothing formal but tracking my steps on the new Apple watch.

W+V: On track (I finally got all the calcium and vites in yesterday)

Sounds like you made a good change in DH's! I didn't get it right the first time either. But #2 is a winner and I'm keeping him.

I overdid it on Christmas eve as well so Christmas day was all about the protein!

Merry Christmas! Yesterday I didn't track the day intentionally. I did have a lot of BLTs, but way less overall than pre-WLS and I am back on the usual maintenance wagon today. We will be getting together with friends or family for several meals this week, so I really need to be careful with choices. There aren't too many sweets leftover to tempt me thank goodness - just some pumpkin bread and chocolate chip cookies.

QOTD: The best gift was probably a diamond tennis bracelet for DH. He gave me a lot of great jewelry over the years. I can't recollect a "worse" gift.

1 year, 9 months post-op

B: eggbeaters, cottage cheese and Canadian bacon

L: tuna salad, pickles and cottage cheese

D: leftover crack slaw

S: nut thins and hummus

YAY I get to participate!

Doing dinner with friends tonight, no clue what they're serving but from experience it will be carb-heavy crap. Bringing a protein shake along for insurance. Will have a tiny slice of the gingerbread cake I made yesterday, and a small serving of my spouse's beautiful cranberry/orange/pineapple trifle.

B: 4 oz. cottage cheese

S: 0.5 oz. almonds

L: 6 oz. teriyaki chicken

D: ???

E: none today, walked yesterday

Follow up: Yep, it was all carby crap. The sole protein source was ham (my least-favorite protein, besides the ones I refuse to eat).

Potatoes, mac and cheese, stuffing, parfait, rolls...

Had my protein shake, a tiny slice of ham, and picked at the carbs just enough not to be a bad guest.
