Menus and Miles Thursday Aug. 10th

WARNING TO SELF AND TO ANYONE WHO WILL LISTEN!!! AVOID 'BAD' CARBS AT ALL COSTS!!! THEY ARE ADDICTING!! THEY WILL SLOW DOWN YOUR WEIGHT LOSS DURING THE LOSING STAGE (and you won't even notice)!! THEY WILL MAKE THE SCALE GO UP AFTER THE HONEYMOON PERIOD IS OVER.

Success in Maintenance starts with GOOD CHOICES during the Honeymoon Period.

I feel I need to repeat this: I am a FIRM believer in Good Whey Protein Drinks!!!!! It is sooooo much harder to do Maintenance without them!

It's late afternoon and I'm just getting time to post. Hope you are all having a successful day! It was my turn to pick our 9 yr. old Granddaughter up from her summer classes and take her to lunch. We got to choose between McDonalds or Burger King so we could get back to school/work on time.

Post Op 16 months TODAY (what what!!!) Where did the time go?? Oh and the scale down another 1/2 pound this morning 172.5.... I might make it to my original goal of 160 yet (someday).

Morning everyone! I left off the good on purpose So I decide to take a break from the gym this morning but I forgot to change my alarm. So I'm up, and don't know what to do with myself LOL The only good thing is my Trucker got to see me in my cute lil $4 dress find from Walmart!!

Its been sometime since I've had to cook breakfast at home, so this morning my rant went something like this..."stoooopid eggs, stoooopid veg..." don't have to worry about flippin stuff when you cook it in the microwave at work.

Dinner last night was pretty good, I opted for an open face club house, they make it on pita bread it would have been huge with 3 layers of pita. I ate one half without any of the pita bread and was full!! The other half is in the fridge for a tomorrow snack.

Anyway, a little tired this morning as per usual. I do have a job closing this afternoon so that will give me something to do for 20 minutes.

On to the eats. Small confession....my lunch items are actually on a cheese stick from Superstore....I didn't see it in MFP so its not included in my totals ..... I'm not usually a sandwich person but when the mood strikes it has to be on some unique type of bread. I will likely have to spread it over a couple hours because it will fill me up but it will be yummy and I don't do this often for any newbies reading the menu thread today.

B - 1 egg, 1/4 cup egg white, cheese slice and peppers and onions (stooopid eggs)

S - skyr with blueberries

L - 4 slices turkey kielbasa, 1 slice light marble, 1 tbsp. mayo, little lettuce

S - 2 eggs smashed with 1 tbsp. light mayo, 2 slices deli turkey (added to up the protein)

D - bacon wrapped sirloin, 1 cob of corn if its any good

Total Cal 890, Carbs 22, Protein 80 (remember I am having bread so these numbers are a little off)

Low on the protein for me so might have to add something. I bought some delicious looking little snack items at Superstore yesterday. Pep n' Cheddies which is a little meat stick packaged with a little cheese stick, so cute! And I found some pepperoni wrapped mozzarella snacks. Looks yummy and already prepped. Hopefully both are as good as they look.

Have a good day everyone. I have to find something to do now until its time to go to work. Lazy person problem, I should've just gone to the gym!!
