tomi71 581 Posted December 20, 2014 How are you keeping track of what you are eating? I use myfitnesspal to make sure I stay on the right path. I also keep my FitBit on to make sure I am up and moving. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

catdaddy 232 Posted December 20, 2014 I'm just past 4 months. My fitnesspal is my recorder. I do a Protein Drink for Breakfast every morning. After that it's up in the air what I eat. I do have my main Protein supplements of tuna creations, baked tilapia, and canned chicken. They're always on hand and I eat a lot of them. I recently slowed down my weight loss but I know it was the choices and quantity of food I was eating. After I corrected my mistake I was loosing at my normal pace again. I'm now into store bought rotisserie turkey breast. I have them cut into steak size and it works out to about 3 oz each. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

akt1908 4 Posted December 20, 2014 This is helpful, what are tuna creations Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tomi71 581 Posted December 20, 2014 Canned chicken and tuna are great sources! I add a little bit of olive oil and get creative with salt-free seasonings. Yummy and satisfying. I usually pair with a 1/2 of serving of flatbread or crackers and some fruit or a greek yogurt. I am usually too full to even finish an entire meal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
catdaddy 232 Posted December 20, 2014 For me on canned chicken I just drain the Water most of the time but I sometimes add zesty honey mustard into it. As for tuna Creations it's a bag StarKist product. I like the Sweet & Spicy flavor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tamg26k 479 Posted December 20, 2014 Just like some of the other people. I keep track of everything with myfitnesspal. I also have a fitbit that I use daily. I try to get 100 + grams of Protein a day and keep my carbs under 40 grams a day. A typical day for me is up and out the door at 6:30 with a Protein shake made with soymilk and a whey isolate ( prob around 30 grams a protein) Breakfast is Protein pudding ( 1 box of SF pudding w 1 3/4 cup soy milk and 4 scoops of protein powder). I divide into 6 servings for 6 breakfasts (about 20 grams of protein) lunch is usually 3 oz. of meat (chicken, turkey, a turkey sausage, or beef) with some kind of sauce and about 1/4 cup of either cottage cheese, edamame, or steamed green Beans afternoon or post-workout is a Protein Shake this time with Water (about 25 grams of protein) dinner is usually about the same as lunch, a different meat and sauce) I am 5 months post op RNY and have lost 105 lbs. so far. I rarely eat out. I've made tons or recipes from Pinterest that I'll change a bit to suit my tastes. I've also cut out all sugar, wheat, Pasta, rice, potatoes, most high sugar fruits, flour, etc. from my diet. I don't miss any of those things at all! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
