Guest guest Posted June 4, 2006 Report Posted June 4, 2006 Well today was the day I got groceries for the month, since my foodstamps were all charaged up. I bought protein, protein, protein for the most part. I bought 30 Stouffers frozen dinners (one for each day) because I figure this will help me have variety and better portion control. I stuck to the ones who had meat as a main course, no pastas. This worked well for me because they only cost between $1-$2 a meal. So the plan for this month is as follows: Breakfast: eggs - prolly an omlet with cheese, maybe a piece of toast too Snack: apple or honeydew mellon Lunch: sandwich (or 2 - hard to break old habits) - I bought p-butter and lots of lunchmeat Supper: Frozen dinner Snack: Sugar-free Jello OR pudding, and string cheese Ok - I know there's no veggies in there, except what happens to be in the frozen dinners. I can't change overnight - sorry folks. But compared to what I've been eating - this is saintly of me!! *lol* Add to this walking at least 4x a week and I'm really making changes in my life!!

Guest guest Posted June 4, 2006 Report Posted June 4, 2006 What a great way to be eatting...It is so much better to change your eating habits now. You will do so much better after surgery. I'm with you all the way except the sugar free jello...YUCK!! Lol. I am also a big advocate of the YMCA I hope you can start the water aerobics soon. I used to enjoy them til I moved here to Germany and couldnt find a place that teaches them. Do you have a surgery date yet? Keep up the positive mind!!!
