What was on your Menu for Wednesday?

B - 1 packet cream of wheat, 1 tsp smart balance, 1 tsp splenda brown sugar S - 1/2 World Wide Shake L - Went to Benihanas for a workers birthday lunch. 1.5 oz Filet Minon (sp) .5 oz chicken 1 spoonfull zuchinni 2 peices of carrot and onion 1 forkfull rice D - 1 oz penne pasta with 2 oz meatsauce, 1 tsp smart balance just a taste of garlic bread S - 1/2 World Wide Shake

Did the steak and pasta work well for you? These are both on my 'avoid' list until 2 months out. I'd love to have some pasta...

Everyone is different, but I tried to eat 2 shell noodles out of mac and cheese the other night, it was too tough to chew up really well and it came back up right after i ate them

Just had to say, you always make me laugh when you tell your restaurant meal stories, you are so funny!

I meant the comment for Tiffany, but it ended up at the bottom.

I FINALLY ATE OVER 70g of PROTEIN! Can I get a woot, woot! B: 2 oz of LF Cottage Cheese L: 3 oz Honey Roasted Boneless Grilled Chicken Breast Strips D: Went out to restraunt and had 4 oz of Boneless Broliled Chicken Breast, dipped in NF blue cheese (used less then 1 tsp for entire chicken though). I ate this over the course of almost 1 hour, was surprised I could eat so much... however the 4 oz is just an estimate. I also had a scoop of Nectar mixed in with 25 oz. SF Orangeade throughout the day. TOTALS: Cals 447 Fat 10 Carbs 11 Protein 77 Fluids: Not so hot, but still have about 5 more hours of awake time Vits: 1/2 done Excersice: Nope, not today

oops, made a miss calculation... only had 6g of fat today... i accidently put that i ate the skin of the chicken into fitday.com for the first calculation... sorry.

Hi all. I really enjoy seeing what everyone's having for their meals. It's interesting about the "rules" of eating that everyong has and how much they can vary. B - one egg, scrambled with Pam in pan and 1 slice of 2% yellow cheese L - tuna w/some shredded 2% cheedar and FF mayo with four crackers D - out to dinner at Applebees...had the grilled talapia and comes with rice, marsala sauce and mixed veggies. Only ate a little of the fish (no rice, no sauce & no veggies till month three) till I felt that now familiar knot in my chest indicating I ate one bite too many. Anyone else feel that? Talk about uncomfortable. Yuck! Kim

I have been cleared for meat since week 4. I started with ground beef and turkey and graduated to pulled meat and then went right to real meat/chicken. I was told if I eat a very tender piece of meat it would go down better. The pasta made me want to puke so I wont do that again for a while. I can now eat what ever I want, I am not limited to anything as long as I stay low fat, low sugar. I doctor knows I am going to Ruths Chris this weekend for dinner for my friends birthday and he said to eat a ounce or so of steak, and a spoonful here and there of everyone elses sides. The only problem I have really had was not chewing this weekend and getting a piece of chicken stuck. I also was talking and not paying attention. I was in massive pain for 2.5 hours before I called my surgeon and while I was talking to him I started puking and that continued for about 2.5 more hours. It is funny about the different doctors, mine is not so worried about eating real food on week six of eating but does not allow alcohol for 1 year and I dont think sodas ever again.

Hi Kim! I got that awful knot yesterday when I tried taking two pills at the same time! it was horrible and lasted for an hour or so. I will never do that again! Karyn
