What we are eating and what's eating us,Friday!
I am baaacck!! 2 days ago my TV cable channels disappeared. Then my server died,but the channels came back. I vow it has to do with the analog thing going away.
I have been up 48 hours now,Olivia and I talked all night,very healing. She has 2 job interviews tomorrow,one is a great hearts desire position.
When I was working I planned my menu,much like George,I was gone for hours. Fangster started getting grumpy,and I felt dishonest when I could not follow it,what with being home and all the meds,so I have been doing what I ate already,it may change again when I return to work.
I ate cottage cheese,with no sugar added peaches,2 cheese sticks,a bunless burger,2 Hebrew National no nitrate hot dogs with good old yellow mustard, a Healthy Choice Chicken Alfredo,yogurt and an apple.
I find I can eat a controlled amount of potatoes,rice,or noodles, with no triggering. Most of my triggers were sweets.
I think what ever works for ya. Jean is fantastic,and if she could package her meals and ship them,I would be on her client list!!
I have basically stopped all but the most basic cooking,not worth the hassle,when I can get a balanced healthy meal for 1.88,a sale has been going on,with really good lower sodium meals,and I eat one a day,takes me 2 settings. Maintaining seems to be flowing for me,it has already been over 100 16 days so far,
I did find green peppers 4 for a buck,unheard of,so I am gonna stuff them with ground lean beef,brown rice,tomato and onion.
My system seems to do well with this,less potty problems.My NUT says she does not want me to fear carbs,but to practice moderation....so far a few tablespoons do the trick for me.
Ok,I gotta tell you guys this,I called Annette and asked her to start the thread,my brain ain't that great as is....
Talking to her is a balm to my soul,we said our good byes after talking about her sweet Tom. I told her good bye and to give Tom a HUMP for me....I hung up,then said oh crap!! I was trying to say HUG!!! Did we ever laugh when I called her right back...giggle!!
TGIF!!!

Linda,
I'm sure Tom would have appreciated the hump as well as the hug.
I used to post my daily food on the lap-band forum, which has a similar thread to this one, but after a while I stopped because my menus can sound like bragging. I'm lucky that I learned to cook from a professional chef, and I enjoy it. A wide variety of good-tasting food is one of the things that keeps me on track. When I get bored, trouble starts.
B: coffee protein shake
S: iced skinny latte
L: chicken sausage patty, avocado & melon salad
S: cheese
D: Korean beef rib, zucchini w/ feta & mint
S: fresh cherries

Dearest Jean,I am a sales person,marketing and such is also a part of what I do.
I declare woman,you are holding your fortune in your precious hands. I do not know all the legal mumbo jumbo,but do you have any idea how many people would order foods from you???
I honestly,truly would,I know dry ice would be involved,and the pricing could be dues,or what ever is legal.I think if it is a food club,private,you bypass a lot of insurance issues.
You have a talent girl! You also enjoy it...do you have any idea how huge our WLS community is???? There is money out there.
Chicken sausage patties,frozen and shipped,Korean beef rib,there is a market for this sort of healthy gormet food. You could start with a small member list,sort of a food club thing. I may sound batty,but where there is a will....
Have a great day,and entertain the idea,roll it around in that marvelous,creative head of yours!
I would gladly pay 150 bucks for Jeans package of meats,plus shipping,and I am poor,they have those little styro foam coolers that the steak people and candy order people ship in.
OK,you are probably thinking it is time for me to go to bed,but do you know the Martha Stewart story?? 150.00 would be the low end of your price list. Shipped monthly...150...even 10 people,hmmmm.
I am not batty.
Hugs!
Heck,it does not hurt to play with the idea.

Hugs to you sweet Boo,I hope the time flies by for you and you can start a great weekend.
Even the grands here have high end laptops,we were all at a lost!!
AJ does animations,Zack likes to research historic images,and play Monopoly.
It is so funny,we can all be sitting in the livingroom on our 'puters,sharing our finds. Of course theirs have a child guard and such on it.
My grandson thought my record albums were huge CD's....grin!
Be blessed sweet Connie,I love you.

Howdy folks and fabulous Friday,
I'm feeling a little down today, like I may be catching the bug that's been going around here. Or maybe the headache is because I didn't sleep very well, worrying about work again. It should be an easy day meaning I can get to some of the filing and misc stuff that's cluttering my office.
Did OK with my menu yesterday except for some crackers and a bourbon/water. Plan to take it easy this weekend although there is some housework I can't put off much longer. I have to do my online traffic school and send in my car registration renewal. A couple of fun things planned too. May go see that new animated movie "UP" that opens today and my friend, Maren, is having a party Saturday evening. Think I will take an appetizer from Trader Joes.
B coffee/Kashi/yogurt
S protein bar
L hot dog/ LC cheese/cherries
D not sure yet
S SF pudding
Here's hoping Tom is happily hugged, humped or both.
