Good afternoon Ladies and Gents?? How is everyone doing today? Today has been one lazy and relaxing day for me. Me and Steph did nothing but lay on the couch and watch movies. I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend. My menu~ B~ 1 Scrambled egg w/ cheese and 1/2 a peice of toast L~1 oz of Beef Jerkey.. 1st time since surgery. it's good and 14 grams of protein D~3 hotwings and 3 celery sticks dipped in FF ranch S~ 8 oz Choc. cc milk Vitamins: on track Water: 45 oz so far Exercise: none Good Night, Kay

I went to a 50th wedding anniversary celebration 1 1/2 hrs. away. I drove my in-laws. Here's the menu, which does include snacks, but my surgeon prefers 5-6 mini-meals a day. I don't know what to call them other than snacks. I'm losing plenty of weight this way and getting in all the protein I need and exercising regularly, so I'm good w/ it. B: 1/2 c Jimmy Dean Southwest breakfast skillet S: Protein Iced Mocha Latte L: reception food: couple veggie sticks, 2 crackers w/ spinach dip, 1 piece of roast beef lunch meat, 1 cube cheese, 3 bites of fruit, and 3 small bites of cake D: 2 baked buffalo chicken strips Vitamins: done Water: 64 oz. so far Exercise: 45 minutes of Chicometrics Karla 337/239/150

Hi Karla My surgeon also wants me to do 6 small meals a day ( 3 meals w/ 3 snacks) OR 3 meals and 2 protein shakes. I sometimes do the 3 meals with 2 shakes but haven't mastered the 6 small meals yet. I get full from trying to get all my water in. My cousin who had wls 4 years ago and is maintaining her weight well also stands behind the 6 small meals a day. So your doing it exactly right according to your surgeon and mine. I THINK the reason people don't post their menu anymore because they do things different or they think they eat more or less than others. I try to stress that all surgeons are different and there is no 1 right way to eat. Like you said, your loosing and your getting protein in! Whatever works!! Keep up the great work Kay

Hey Kay!!!!!! B- nada L- 1 egg with tiny bit of bacon bits and some shredded cheese S- protein bar D-

I agree, the bottom line is what works and keeps each of us healthy. I for one mess up on occasion and have something that is a B~12 oz V8 juice S~8oz ff milk L~two small chicken strips D~4 chicken nuggets Fluids~74oz Suppliments~done. Exercise~went to Mom's so didn't get much in, Hazel

Don't you just love lazy weekend days? I do. Today all I did was grocery shop, then it was at home spa night tonight watched some TV and did a facial, pedicure & manicure, and plucked the eyebrows. It was a wonderful day! Here is what sustained me: B: 3oz LF Cottage Cheese w/ some Carb Clever Peaches F: Champion Stack Chocolate Protein drink- not bad, but I mixed it with h2O, Im sure it will be better with some CC Choco Milk as a base tho. L: 4 Bing Cheeries and 8 Soy Crisps D: Mission Carb Blance Whole Wheat Fajita Size Tortilla sprinkled w/ 2 oz Mozz/Cheddar cheese, then I put it in a dry pan w/ lid on the stove till crispy and the cheese melted. I dipped it in a sour cream & salsa sauce. It took me a while to fini**** but its so good! F: Verry Berry Vanilla Protein Delite shake (made with h20) TOTALS: Cals 717 Fat 25 Carbs 46 (which, is 6g above my limit, but the tortilla had almost 9g of dietary fiber, and the soy crisp have some too... so I don't feel that guilty) Protein 75
