Today seems to be a little less stressful, so I have gotten off the pity train, at least for today. Almost at my fluids goal, so far no “stress” eating and have been logging everything. Hopefully the rest of the day will run just as smoothly.

Hope everyone is having a good day too!!!

I like these ideas.

Thanks @nikki-massie!!!!!!

My gratitudes from yesterday and today.

Wed, 3/22 – Although this may be biased, I am grateful now that people see me as person instead of looking at me with disgust.

Thu, 3/23 – Happy 1 year Surgerversary to ME!!!!!! So today, I am grateful that I was afforded the opportunity to have WLS. Although I was very hesitant at first (it took me 2…[Read more]

Well yesterday I had a very productive appointment with my nutritionist. I was able to get a breakdown of carbs, protein, fats (50/30/20%) and max calories for the day (800-1,000).  So now I’ve made all those adjustments to MFP. I also got clarification on what’s considered toward my water goal. Decaf beverages, my spearmint tea (made only with d…[Read more]

Check in for yesterday and today. All food logged. Even managed yesterday to get my 64 oz of water and then some!! So far today, I am right on track.

Forgot to post my gratitudes for the last 3 days.

Sunday, 3/19 – I am thankful for my wonderful son and daughter-in-law (she is more like a daughter to me; the girl I never had) and my beautiful grandsons (4 years old & 21 months old). They are my life, my world and the air that I breathe!

Monday, 3/20 – I am thankful for my wonderful husband of…[Read more]

Check in for yesterday and today. All food logged. Fell short both days to  reaching my water goals (64 oz).  Tomorrow is another day!!!

Two busy days in a row!!!  Dr appointments, errands etc. Never had a chance to check in yesterday. Yesterday and today I did log all my food. Both days started out great with my water goal of 64 oz, but by end of each day came up short.

One thing I did for ME today was to get my hair done, something that was long overdue!!

Just a quick note that I logged all my food today.

Today I bad one wicked headache as well as my sinuses killing me. So needless to say, I wasn’t “on my top game” today.  I fell short of my water goal today. Only had about 30 oz.  I did log everything.

Breakfast – breakfast casserole (eggbeaters, turkey bacon, red pepper, onion, mushrooms and cheese)

Lunch – 2.5 oz veal roast,  1 cup spring mi…[Read more]

I have been faithfully logging everything that goes in my mouth.

Breakfast today I was craving pancakes, so I  had bananas foster protein pancakes (recipe from Nikki’s breakfast book). I made a few changes to her basic pancake mix. I used all unflavored protein powder (Quest multipurpose protein powder), baking powder and salt.

Lunch – not…[Read more]

Have fun!!  I wasn’t able to check in yesterday, but I did get my 64 oz of water in (2nd day in a row!! ). So far today I’m right on track and halfway through my water. Logging everything too.

Hi Nikki!!

So far it’s been right on track.  I wasn’t on the computer much yesterday so I never did get to do my check ins. Two days in a row I got my 64 oz of water in!!  So far today I’m halfway there!!! Logging right on track as well as feeling a bit proud of myself for reaching my goals!!! Hope your day is going well!!!  Thanks!!!
