Share ideas, What did you eat today ?



Recommended Posts

I'm not going to completely admit to what I ate yesterday, as my period arrived today. Suffice to say it consisted mainly of sugar, combined with a little fat. And for variety last night, I added alcohol to the mix :shades_smile:

Once a month doesnt hurt, right?

Anyway, back on track today.

Breakfast: Barbecued pineapple and peaches (they were going soft, had to use them up) brushed with maple Syrup, served with Greek yogurt. Yummmmmmmmmmm. Worth the effort to fire up the barbie on a school morning.

Snack: a banana smoothie made with skim milk and vanilla and a banana . Followed a 10km run.

Lunch: A sushi/sashimi pack - I mostly ate the fish and left the rice. Small bottle of orange juice

No afternoon snack, that was quite a bit of food this morning and I'm really not hungry.

dinner tonight is going to be roast lamb, roast potatoes and pumpkin, steamed broccoli and carrots.

Just a general question here - are Triscuits bad for you? I bought some of that Summer Sausage (the Beef kind) that comes out over the holidays. Typically you slice it with some cheese and put it on Triscuits (or some other type of cracker). I've really gotten into eating the meat on a Triscuit dipped in hummus :w00t: and I'm wondering if Triscuits are OK to eat often? At this point, with only one fill, I can typically eat about 8 slices of Beef (which seems like a lot!) with about 8 Triscuits at one sitting. Thanks for the input everyone! :ohmy:

Great! I think I'll take a look at every box they offer and pick the lowest calorie box. And it's not like I'm eating them every day. Just a snack, every other day at most, and the Summer Sausage won't be available in stores for too much longer I don't think. Thanks LULUC!

I have eaten so bad the last two days that I was too embarrassed to post. Lets just say there was a lot of cookie batter, Cookies and Peanut Butter fudge bars. I realize that I cannot have things like that in the house because I will eat them...and they go right through the band. I packed everything that I made and gave it away...it took me two days to do it...which means two days of crappy eating.

Today I woke up and made a commitment to eat properly.

B - Pure Protein shake

S - coffee w/splash of milk

L - 1/2 cup of pintos, grilled zucchini and salsa

S - 60 calorie pudding and 1 tsp of Peanut Butter

D - Pintos, grilled zucchini and corn, shredded beef ate about 1/2 cup total

S - 60 calorie pudding, 1 tsp peanut butter

D: smoked salmon spread w/ crackers (not sure how much - nibbled away for hours - brought into work for everyone)

D#2: 1/2 c. terriyaki chicken w/ 1/4 c. brown rice

S: christmas candy odds and ends out on work counter

Not a great day today - no fruit, very few veg. Calorie wise, OK.

Oh wait, wine is made from grapes, right?

Breakfast: bowl of allbran with skim milk

mid morning - a Boost bar (well, it had been sitting there for a whole HOUR, someone had to eat it).

Lunch: Lean Cuisine tuna bake

Dinner: glass sav blanc and about half a cup of spaghetti bolognaise (home made sauce, lots of garlic and tomatoes).

I generally try to eat more fresh food than this. Oh, and not eat Boost bars! But my day would come in at about 200 for Breakfast, 400 for the boost, 300 for lunch, maybe 300 for dinner and 200 for the glass of wine. Not too bad, considering I did an hour long hard circuit training session.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
