Yes, thank God for WLS.

I think I need to give up the popcorn as I think it makes me slightly gassy - not badly so, but I like to aim for zero emissions!!

I haven't had any trouble with popcorn and gas but it does help me go to the bathroom which use to be a struggle. I love cheese but my body wouldn't be able to handle all of the cheese you eat though.

Good Menu!

 

I do 200 calorie popcorn portions which could the reason, I just don't have the self control you do . I have go easy on heavy cream as too much will have me in the bathroom all night (it's always at night and I love my bed too much to go OTT with fat). Cheese I can get away with, sadly I'm drawn to the stuff I should go easy on (guess that's why I ended up going the WLS route).

Keep going to the frig to find that my DH has finished off my fruit and veggies.  Guess its good for him, but I'm not used to him raiding my food for lunch.

B: protein coffee

B: fibre bar

S: popcorn

L: 1 slice rye bread + 3 oz chicken breast //wanted carrots but my DH finished them off yesterday

S: apple + 1/2 protein bar

D: going out.  Probably fried shrimp. 

The only fruit my DH eats is bananas and he avoids veggies completely. He eats very unhealthy but he won't budge and I am tired of fighting with him. 

Sounds Good!

 

 

Cold grey day here but I had a good meeting with a client and staff and then came home and put on all my snow stuff (no snow but it keeps me warm) and went out for a drive. 

decaf protein coffee  33g
kale, eggbeaters, cheese
taco salad, no shell
hot chocolate protein w/ milk 30g
brats, brocalli, baked potatoes
protein shake 33g

Sounds like you are having a pretty good day!

 

Hi Roz,

I'm trying to get caught up at work before the beginning of the new year.  January is always so busy at work.  I had a nice surprise at lunch today.  DD and DGD#2 came to town and we went to lunch together.  Then DH wanted to go out to supper - so I ate out twice today...

B:  Protein Decaf Coffee
S:  Decaf Coffee
S:  Lemon Tea Protein Drink
L:  Beef Fajitas(No Tortilla) with peppers & Onions
S:  Lemon Tea Protein Drink
D:  Beef Fajita Taco Salad w/ sour cream(No shell)
S:  Decaf Coffee

Vitamins:  Done
Water/Fluids:  105 ozs
Miles:  None

I love not having to think about joining WW also.  I used to join almost every January and it usually lasted a month or two.  I am looking into joining a gym or something.  I need to get back to exercising.

I love surprises like that!  It looks like you made good choices eating out. I always tell them to just bring me the meat and veggies and sometimes I have to take half of it home. 

I joined WW so many times I think I tried every new plan they started. I did really good on the exchange program but I didn't make good choices on the points program.
