What's on the menu today, RNYers?

OT 

did you have your surgery in El Paso?   I live in Las Cruces and will be having my surgery in El. Paso Monday

You need to be taking calcium at least 3 times a day - two hours apart and not with your iron/vitamin C for everything to absorb properly.  Don't take 3 at a time because you can't absorb that much at one time.  I take the petites, and they are not that petite, but I can tolerate them.

  6 AM: Coffee with Splenda and half and half  

B: 1/2 cup of scrambled eggs

S: Premier Protein shake after my gym time

L: Dannon L&F Greek yogurt-banana cream ( so yummy )

S: cheese stick

D: slow-braised pork tenderloin in white wine sauce, veggie casserole if room ( but probably won't have room )

Hydration: check

Exercise: 45 minutes cardio ( elliptical and treadmill )

  Vites: check 

The coconut is so good.And the strawberry shortcake  Light and Fit yogurt.

Hi DCgirl!

This weekend planning new meals sounds like FUN!

Yesterday was my birthday and as well as hectic so I never got on to post but am glad I am around today to post. We are having a potluck at the office today and it is childhood favorites like; corndogs, twinkies, fruit by the foot, ants on a log, PB&J, grilled cheese, and the chili I made to go with frito pie......

Luckily I brought something I can eat today.

B- My protein shake - 220 - 27 protein

S - Ants on a log with no ants (celery and PB) 200 - 6 protein

L - Chili - 230 - 22 protein 

S - Hot chocolate protein made with water - 80 - 20 protein

D - Hot chocolate protein made with water - 80 - 20 protein

The chili ended up being little too spicy or something and now my stomach hurts no more solid food for me today I think

Totals 810 calories and 95 grams protein

W and V - Good on both :)

E - Personal training for an hour this morning with a 15 minute run warm up before.

Happy birthday!!! Impressed that you did training and cardio and avoided that seriously tempting potluck. Ugh I see the food at our office and wonder why every single person isn't obese. Our kitchen is like the graveyard for terrible snacks. I have to say I'm feeling so good I'm not even tempted yet. Kudos to you!!! 

I have to say that temptation has not been bad for me. I have made this about the lifestyle change that has a place for everything. That seems to be keeping me straight at this point and hopefully for a while.
