What's on the menu today, RNYers?

Oy is right!  It's always nice to be validated, however...so in a way it's good that others can see the psychosis lol.

I am sorry you are missing your gym class but I know you can stay on plan - it's not like the guests won't benefit from healthy, protein forward meals - a benefit for all!  

Good call on the takeaway but I had a shake for breakfast, just back from the gym, now will eat tofu, and shrimp fajitas for dinner are a go!

I know it sucks to not be planned but you know what to do and when you fill out MFP tonight you will see that you are within the guidelines :)  Good luck today and good luck with the new houseguests!!!!

Semper Gumby (LOL!)

Hi Pam, wow it sounds like things are intense for you right now. Unexpected/unplanned house guest always stress me out.  Still it sounds like you will get some good karma coming your way for helping them out of a less than wonderful situation.  Good luck with your new schedule, and hopefully everything is smooth sailing from here on out!

Pretty much the same as yesterday. This weekend I'm going to experiment with some bariatric recipes (like cauliflower pizza)

B: 2oz boars head turkey, sliver avocado, 1Tb reduced fat cheese

L: 1/4 cup low-fat chicken salad

D: 2oz rotisserie chicke, 1 Tb hummus

S: isopure bottle (40g protein)

E: 30 mins elliptical

V: on track

W: goal of 50oz

You are rocking this thing, Feather! I'm surprised you can tolerate deli meat, I still can't! You're lucky.

Yes, I'm grateful I can eat deli meat. I get the freshly shaved good stuff from the deli section at the store, it's much better than the pre-packaged stuff. I also love rotisserie chicken, that goes down well too.

I was the same, Feather!  I was allowed to start foods on day 14 after surgery and for lunch I had egg salad and for dinner I had half of a ground chicken patty.  After a month of shakes and jello and pudding, it was like heaven!  No intolerances so far...just the foamies when I eat too quickly or chicken is too dry!  Glad you are adapting to RNY life so well!  

Some days I question whether or not I really had surgery lol! Other than getting full from little food, I really don't feel any different from my pre-surgery self (knock on wood).

Every time I see my surgeon I joke that I was in the placebo group :)  I also feel great and other than eating small amounts, nothing bothers me.  Not habanero peppers, not meat, not eggs, nada.  Knock on wood, right?!  But honestly I think that may be most people's experience...it's just that on a support website such as this you will find more people looking for support, so therefore it skews more towards people with complications.  I dunno, just a theory.  So glad you are feeling great!

Good morning all! Anny, I have been drinking coffee from day one and have had no issues. Well, almost, durning finals and hubby coming home after 17 months, I was upping the coffee and not the water... So hubby was home maybe a week and I devolved a kidney stone! Welcome home honey you get to take care of a 2 year old and me! But that was it and my own mistake. Drink away! I can't imagin my life without coffee! 

My eats for the day: 

breakfast: 2 eggbites, 1/2 cup of cottage cheese was planned but I was full so only ate half of it, coffee

lunch: on the run so going to grab a quest bar and enjoy some samples from costco (anyone have ideas on how to add that? Lol)

dinner: turkey taco Thursday!  I'll have alittle rice and one shell

snacks: protein shake with milk and a Greek yogurt

totals: cals:1085  carbs:92  protein:118 (carbs are alittle high but woohoo on the protein!)

w: working on it

v: done

e: taking a day off from bodyfit and jumping on the treadmill 

ok I have a busy day ahead of me; dishes, laundry, shopping and ironing and cutting fabric! Enjoy the rest of your day!

You always have such active days!  Love it!

I also love Taco Thursday.  How fun to have those family traditions.  

And now to go drink more water...a kidney stone does NOT sound comfortable!!!

Enjoy Costco - I love that place!!!
