Something I've wanted to do....

is make a set of cards, similar to the old deal a meal cards, but with MY foods. The plan is to either pick at random or pick and plan ahead from this list to help me not deviate from what i should eat.

As a wls patient, i can eat protein, veggies, fruits. i do need to work on carbs, but as that's lesser of the evil vs sugar, im not gonna tackle it just yet. not a cop-out, just my way of doing stuff in an order that seems to be working for me.

so here goes the list of foods that I personally can, do, and like to eat. 

Proteins:

grilled chicken (patty or in a salad)

scrambled eggs (with ham and cheese; onions/tomatoes optional)

tilapia

ground turkey (in various forms, chili, patties, etc)

cottage cheese

hard boiled eggs

turkey

chicken on da spit (rotissary)

pork

string cheese (from the dairy not the grocery)

steak (not as often as pre-surgery) 

Veggies:

lettuce

tomatoes

green beans

onions

Fruits:

berries

bananas (in my protein shakes)

to be continued...after vbs tonite :)
