Had brunch with the fam this morning too!

Here's my plate: Steak Bene w/ sides of salad, fruit & potatoes.
Mr & the Kid ate whatever potatoes are missing from the plate as well as that prime piece of bacon when I wasn't looking! ....and after I took this pic, they ate what was left of the steak, egg and potatoes.

My birthday dinner out with family I had shrimp,steak and chicken combo fajitas without the tortilla and I gave away my Beans and rice to my sister. Brought home my leftovers home. My plate made 4 meals total for me (still have two meals left hehe). About 4 ounces to 5 is what I can eat almost 4 months post op

”Brunch” today. Thank you @Losingit2018 for recommending Joseph’s lavash bread. I got my order today, chose the garlic herb flavor and promptly made pizza! I crisped the wrap up on a wire rack in the oven before I topped it.

Total 340 calories. I used half a sheet of the bread for a whopping 55 calories. It would have been less but I browned the chicken sausage in a tsp of oil. I ate half of this and I’ll eat the other half in a few hours.

Ooh. This is the first time I have seen the garlic and herb. I get mine from Walmart and they only offer the plain. I bet that one does make a great pizza!

Its almost 5pm and its my first meal of the day. Had a late start this morning.

[ms.sss 15,726]

Made two batches of Keto Ginger Cookies tonite, the second batch had chopped up candied ginger in the batter, the first batch did not.

Macros, per serving:
Batch 1 -- 38 cals, 2.1g NET carbs, 3.1g fat, 0.8g protein
Batch 2 -- 52 cals, 5.5g NET carbs, 3.1g fat, 0.8g Protein

I had one from Batch#2, I found it a little too sweet for my taste, though Mr & the Kid ate em up. Next time I'm going to sub out some of the stevia/monk fruit with some molasses-type sweetener, and cut the total amount of sweetener overall.

P.S. The house smells AWESOME right now.

I'm not a fan of gingerbread Cookies but these make my mouth Water lol They look nice and plump compared to the ones Ive had. Is the serving size one cookie? 38 calories is amazing.

This makes me want a turkey wrap with cheese! I remember you posting a burger wrapped in lettuce and I ended up trying it the other day. Surprisingly, i didnt even miss the bread. The only thing is, I need your wrapping skills. The pastrami wrap looks perfect. Thanks for the idea

My first "official" steak yesterday. Ate it with a small salad and sautéed onions & tomatoes in red wine and soy sauce. No problems eating it. I ended up putting the salad in a bowl because i didnt have room to cut my steak. I only took two bites of it. Hope my well done steak doesnt bother anyone. My friends cringe every time I order medium well - well done.

They are/were soooooo good. I love all ginger cookies: gingerbread, snaps, regular, etc. And yeah, 38 (or 52) cals per cookie.

Sweetness aside (which I will address the next time I make them), these are probably my faves, crispy on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside. I made 40 in total, and there are 10 left in the pantry as of this morning. Though the Kid packed 15 of them to bring to school to share with friends.
