What did YOU eat today?



Recommended Posts

I've been avoiding this thread like the plague. I'm losing weight slowly but I really don't know why. Maybe it's that I don't have much time to eat and I'm doing a lot of work with moving my husband and getting his wheelchair in and out of the car and set up. Anyway, thought if I posted what I ate yesterday it might shame me into getting back on track. It's just so very hard when I've been so busy to take the time to cook. It's so easy to reach for take out or fast food.

Yesterday

b - coffee with coffee-mate Creamer

half a blueberry sour cream muffin

l - half a plate from Afgan restaurant's buffet

pomegranate juice

d- 3 BBQ ribs, blueberry brown sugar pancake with orange sour cream

s - cup cheese puffs, 1 oz dark chocolate

Yesterday:

B-oatmeal with brown sugar and ff half-n-half.

L-Black Bean and salsa chicken with rice, cheddar cheese, Tomato and avocado.

D-Homemade vegetable Soup with 1 slice homemade w.w. bread.< /p>

This doesn't include my afternoon snacking that I know I need to cut back on. I must do better on that. I think that's why my weight is stalled because I'm grazing all afternoon.

Today so far:

B-2% cottage cheese

To finish off my day:

Lunch: Same as yesterday's dinner, Soup with w.w. bread.

Dinner: Homemade chicken Pot Pie with w.w. biscuit on top.

Snacks: not too bad today. I had a couple small handfuls of cinnamon almonds (the sugary kind) and about 1.5 oz of dark chocolate, oh and some little conversation hearts. Unfortunately this is an improvement.

Yesterday

B: 1/4c cottage cheese

L: 1/4c chicken salad; apple (well, most of it)

D: most of a small chicken breast with pineapple salsa

S: 1/4c soy nuts; ff pudding

Started (or rather re-started) measuring things EXACTLY. It is amazing how over time the measures start to become 'rounded' then 'heaping'....

Honest, this last fill really seems to be doing the trick...I'm not PBing, I can eat things, but I just don't have the same hunger.

Yesterday...not a great day in that I didn't eat at regular intervals, but i don't think I went over in the calories. Weekends are just difficult for me.....

Woke up and forgot to eat until about noon...had some cheese and a few tbsp of Peanut Butter. Licked the spatula from my baking (oops:blushing:) a few times, but then ate a proper bandster dinner - few ounces chicken, 1/4c carrot coins, few tablespoons of rice.

Didn't feel hungry -- must have been the lickin's...

OMG I was so bad this weekend. Shame on me! I need a fill, and I'll get one on the 20th of this month. It's so embarrassing how much I can eat even. Well, truth is I can only eat half what I used to. I really don't like being super tight either, so just a little pop will be nice.

Best wishes to all!

So today I'm doing all liquids until dinner, in which case I'll have one BBQ rib, one scoop of Mac & cheese and a healthy serving of veggies for dinner. Yum!

      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.
