What's on the menu today, RNY-ers? Please post!

WOW look at your ticker - you have done amazingly!  I have seen some recipes for mashed cauliflower with cheese and will check that out when I get to that point in post-op.  Looks like you are still eating really really well 2.5 years out.  What an inspiration for the rest of us newbies :)

Hi ChristinaLee! I love turkey bacon too :) My friend just have me this weird contraption where the turkey bacon hangs over this plastic stand in the microwave and cooks up crispy. I haven't tried it yet but I will have to report back :)

Today is NATIONAL BUBBLE BATH DAY!  ENJOY!

Time Since Surgery: 10 weeks

Breakfast:  coffee with creamer (1 protein)

Lunch: raw grape tomatoes, peeled seedless cucumber, fresh mozz cheese, lite italian dressing yummy! (this was a first) (10 g protein)

Dinner:  unsure right now

Snacks:Think Thin Protein Bar Brownie Crunch (20 g protein), whole wheat toast with cruchy peanut butter (13 g protein), Chobani Greek (14 g protein)

Exercise/Vitamins/Fluids- multi vitamin (x2), and B12 vitamin-  NEED to work on fluids- if i'm lucky 2 bottles of water a day (16.9 oz each)

I was also struggling with fluids at first and then I read a super scary article about why the fluids are important - staying hydrated will reduce the amount of excess skin you have (as will exercise) and also can help you avoid gall stones, I believe.  I was like "sip, sip, sip"!  So now I drink when I roll over in the morning to turn off my alarm, drink on the bus to work, drink all day...I have a 20 oz. bottle that I make myself finish between lunch and dinner, plus one between dinner and bed, and the other 20 ounces are in the morning and in protein shakes.  It's the only way I can do it :)

Time Since Surgery: 20 mo

Breakfast: Starbucks Venti Skinny Latte with soy milk, no whipped cream

Lunch: whatever I can rummage from the leftovers my siblings have been buying at Hospice House (probably 2 oz of beef from my sister's Beef/Broccoli chinese leftovers!)

Dinner: 2 oz chicken satay and MAYBE (If I am still hungry) 1-2 oz tofu paneer

Snacks: elk pemmican, pistachios, string cheese (I am going to take them all with me just in case I want a snack)

Nutrition: about 600 calories

Exercise/Vitamins/Fluids: not much exercise again- but I will get all of my vitamins and fluids

I'm impressed that 20 months out you are only at 600 calories still!  I feel like most people get to about 1,200 once they have reached goal, in order to maintain.  Do you ever go over 600?  I am alwys curious what others' experiences are!

Time passed since surgery: 16 mths -- NOT my best day, but here it is

Breakfast: 2 cups coffee with sf syrup and milk, 1 lg apple 

At 2 pm I realized all I had eaten was an apple  ( I got up at 6), and ate lunch to fast :( , will I ever learn, nope I have a  tummy ache

Lunch: cup of soup, 1 slice low carb bread, toasted with PB and J

Dinner:  meatloaf, I think

Snacks: protein lemon tea , peppermint patty miniature

Total nutrition: I don't count most days, if I have a gain I will reevaluate :)

Exercise/vitamins/water:  light weights , yep vitamins by my side, water and 20 oz protein shake and 24 oz of coffee
