OK, I'll go with it for today. I think our lovely Ms. Shell has the day off from work and she is probably out and about.

So I hope all had a good weekend foodwise and otherwise. Here's my take for today....

B: cottage cheese with pineapple and a handful of Kashi Go Lean Granola

S: Full Bar - these are the bars made by the bariatric surgeon for non-bariatric patients. I bought a box this weekend and if I eat one for a snack (160 calories) without the full 8 ozs. of water that is advised on the box, I do get a nice full feeling.

L: Lean Cuisine Meatloaf and small salad with 1 tbls yogurt honey mustart dressing

S: I might get a peach when I'm done here. Or I have a protein bar, but I'm leaning towards the peach.

D: I'm honestly not sure. I think I will stop at the market and maybe get some steak and then grill some zucchini.

S: Probably just some protein cappaccino. I really enjoy that in the evening.

Water: Always can do better
Vitamins: Multi this morning
Exercise: I'll try the treadmill, but I'm having some back/hip problems today that are really annoying me.

OK, what's on your plates. Give us all some ideas of good things to eat.

It is good to start before surgery developing good habits. A word of advice, for what it's worth. Start trying to cut out the simple carbs or what I call white carbs....bread, crackers, rice, potatoes and sugar. Complex carbs such as some whole grains, fruits and vegetables are what I call good carbs. You've got a good amount of time now before surgery to "cleanse" yourself of them and it will make the withdrawal after surgery easier to deal with.

Also, don't allow yourself to get starved. You will eat far more than you should and make bad food choices if you are ravenous. Three meals and three snacks should be your goal with lots of water in between. I also try to plan out my food for the day ahead of time. If I know exactly what I am going to eat for the day, then that is what I stick to.

And be honest with yourself about what you are eating. Start keeping a food diary. You can hand write it or go on a site like Fitday.com and put your food in there and it will calculate calories, fats, proteins, carbs for you. You'd be amazed if you start writing down everything that goes into your system and actually seeing it in front of you, how quickly those calories mount up.

Have a great day.
