- Thread starter SandraB
- Start date
Hic, hic, I have had a date with Mr Smirnoff, but I am sure I read your food earlier!
Hahhaa..........thats my girl, half a bottle of wine........you will soon be in our gang.
Seriously Sandra, you are doing really well since re-feeding for the op, and as for the post op period, I raise my hat to you girl. I would probably be laying there sorry for myself and stuffing my face.

Tanya, May manage that over the weekend! Must remember to put a bottle in to chill....
Still can't find yesterday's food post so will re-do it as follows......was mega good yesterday!
B Branflakes and milk, small OJ, one coffee
L 1/3 skinny french stick, buttered and a smear of mustard, 4 slices wafer-thin ham, 1/3 Port Salut cheese, 1/2 yellow pepper. handful of cherry tomatoes, a banana. Vitamin C drink
D 2 egg omelette with grated cheese and wafer-thin ham, a ww chocolate brownie dessert (these are really good)
hot choc before bed
Passed on the Lindor!!!!, Asked on the WW forum how many points thay had and was told 2 each, same as Jan told me. Bleeding hell, they are gorgeous but don't think that I can make them a regular treat.........think that I had better stick with the hot chocs! I get this in France and though it's only 40 cals a mug it's soooo much nicer than Options.
A good day methinks
Edit....on reflection though maybe a tad too much cheese? good for my bones!

Today's food, Friday
B branflakes and milk, small OJ
L tomato and basil soup, large wm roll, slice of cherry Madeira cake
D fish pie, I made it with flaked salmon and prawns in a little hollandaise sauce, layered with wilted spinach and topped with mashed potatoes. Gave Paul 2/3 of it before I'd realised how good it was......bu88er

Did 45 minutes physio in the pool and slept all afternoon, totally exhausted! Am now stiff as hell.
Had a couple of treats today, the cake was lovely and there's plenty left for tomorrow

It's M&S Mary and really lovely, though well past it's sell by date, with great big whole cherries in it......haven't bothered looking at the calories!
Snowing quite bad here and as Paul is doing the shopping or, rather not doing the shopping, we have bugger all left in the house to eat! He's got man flu now today and is snoring on the sofa, my fault as apparently I kept him awake, the fact that it was due to PAIN is completely lost on him!
Lack of food in the house means nothing naughty to eat though (cherry cake nearly gone!) and when I weighed myself this morning I was 3lbs down since Wednesday and now a lb less than when I had my op! Well thrilled with that

Well done Sandra on being a pound less than when you had your op. You have great will power to stay so focussed. It is so easy to feel sorry for yourself whilst recuperating and overdo the food and drink. I think you are a great role model.
Hope you get food supplies soon!! This weather is playing havoc with everyone's pantry. You get familiar with stuff lurking in the bottom of the freezer!!
Have a good week both food wise and recovery wise!

Thanks Molly......there's nothing even lurking at the bottom of the freezer now! It's breakfast cereal for breakfast and for lunch today until Paul comes home with the shopping! I think there may be an egg left if he hasn't eaten it and I will check out the wine fridge in the garage cos you never know!
Actually I'm finding staying focused quite easy, probably cos this weight is pretty much my previous stable weight and it's only in the last 5 years that's it's gone up after the various ops and illnesses. I still can't believe that it's me in the mirror again! As I was struggling to get up this morning Paul made some comment that all the upper body exercise was good for bingo wings, I asked if I had any and he said that I don't actually have any arms any more! Even my fingers are thinner!
