  • DAY 6. No Cookies for me! oatmeal cookies are my "kryptonite!" The carrot raisin scones look amazing. Will be trying them when I get a little more willpower!!
  • The weather is lovely today, had a nice walk, also did squats, crunches and planks.
  • Tomorrow is my jogging/fast walking day. Looking forward to that.

Oooooo tell us about vegan Keto por favor!


Vegan Keto=meal prep being an extreme sport.

After having surgery I became one of the pickiest eats. I mean food going bad because I was still trying to eat all the food I use to like and it was making me sick.

So I stopped eating pork beef turkey and chicken. Didn’t really phase me.

I was eating fish from time to time but most times I wasn’t. Again food going bad. Because on Monday fish sounded like a good idea but by Tuesday night I didn’t even want to look at it.

So naturally I was just like fine just go vegetarian. But most vegetarian dishes that are easy to make are full of carbs. I started looking in to keto fast forward I’m here.

What do I eat?
Avocados made in a million ways
Chia puddings
A plethora of vegetables.
Jack fruit
Flaxseeds
Nuts
Berries
Sunwarrior Protein powder
I make everything.

Time? I simply am envious since I now imagine a super organized Bad Wolf kitchen. By last night I worked 12 hours, cooked tuna steaks - those big juicy ones on the grill -served atop spinach, baked a flourless almond cake for a dinner tonight and prepped an egg casserole for the spouse to have today and then I collapsed. Now I have visions of Bad Wolf kitchen as an assembly line of precision and efficiency while I have dishes in my sink and I head to work... Go extreme sport called life

Not gonna lie.... I’ve already blown #7.
Got up early to finish my gardening that the rain interrupted yesterday, about to head off to Pilates, then it’s start doing the prep work for painting my guest bedroom.

Maybe one day this month I can find a do nothing day and sub it out

7. It's really hard to do nothing for an entire day! I still have to do my chores. Ok, so I did the plank. Had to break it up into two parts. Turtle, one of my dogs, thought he should put his face in my face while I was doing it. Lunges were also accomplished.

The entire day? My nothing was watching a really insipid Hallmark movie. I’m still counting it, my brain was numb the entire time.

This weekend

6. I didn't bake Cookies but I did do some healthy meal prep for the week which has included egg white muffins for on the go breakfasts and naked enchiladas (enchiladas without tortillas).

7. I failed at doing nothing but had a lovely day. I did laundry and cleaned a bit before going to a birthday brunch for a friend where I was able to make smart food choices. Doing my lunges and plank before going for a run.

Day 7 - do nothing.

Well other than going to church this morning and some food prep for my family (spicy egg salad for my daughter, steak marinating for tacos tonight, all the appropriate veggies for said tacos, and black bean salad), I haven't done much. My pre-OP diet is kicking my butt the last couple of days, but I'm getting through.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
