WHAT ARE YOU HAVING FOR DINNER TONIGHT? Tell us! And how long is it since your sleeve?

First topic message reminder :

I thought this would be a good thread to give early sleevers some hope that eventually life will be normal again!

I am seven months and 3 weeks out, and tonight I am munching on melted cheese and ham on toast with relish (one piece is all I can manage). I might have a bowl (small) of ice cream in an hour if I get peckish later!

Ok tonight I'm going to have pan fried coral trout, fresh peas & roast pumpkin...maybe with a roasted capsicum sauce but will have to think about that.

Last night I went out with friends & had tapas. Great solution for a bunch of losers like us. Shared little dishes of garlic prawns, meatballs in sauce, lamb & pinenuts in fillo with pomengranate sauce, chicken something, grilled haloumi cheese & salad....everyone else had dessert but I couldn't even think about it!

12 days out ... a small tin of mashed baked beans. mmm finally moving past liquids only!

Six jatz crackers with cheese and relish.

Although, I feel like a cup of tea and a piece of apricot slice... (funny, I don't look like one!)

Hot & Sour soup, 3 pieces of spicy salted calamari.

I'm going to a party so my dinner will consist of a few well chewed nibblies :)

McHappy Day ... I had most of the bottom half of a big mac! Not a great dinner, but ... lol

Butter chicken with one teaspoon of rice and plenty sauce (quarter of a cup in total) didn't manage to finish as I was over full... 4 and a bit weeks out and still finding the balance with heavier foods!

Gourmet baked beans (beans, bacon, onion, garlic & BBQ sauce) with 1/2 a scrambled egg.

Tonight I am making low fat chicken parma with a low fat fried rice on the side- I have thrown up everytime I have eaten chicken but I am going to try again tonight! Wish me luck! LOL

Last night I had half a small chicken Kiev & mustard white sauce.

Just about 3 months out.

Last night I made souvlaki's - with mine I got in around 3 -4 bites and gave the rest away! Then a few hours later I had a handful of pistacio's!


3 months out

Five months after sleeve, for dinner tonight I had half the lean meat off a small lamb chop and 4 bites of corn on the cob. Later I had a 2 cm wide slice of lemon meringue pie (4 small mouthfuls). Yum!

Tonight i was being lazy so scrambled one egg and had a little shaved ham with it, and i ate too much, im still in shock that one egg is too much, at this rate i will be able to afford my new wardrobe with what im saving on groceries lol.

A splurge for me tonight...

60g grilled steak
Red capsicum
Avocado
Cauliflower with homemade cheese sauce with full-fat cheese, milk and butter!

Chicken sausage, cauliflower, mash spud (tbsp), fried onions and gravy.
4mths out.

Tonight will be a thick Cauli/Camembert/Chicken soup :)

Last night was 3 Chicken Tenderloins plus salad.

Tonight will be a BBQ - low fat chicken snag (or two), onions, corn and a bit of green stuff.

Tomorrow night will be BAD!!! We're sharing a coupon deal with family - pizza, pasta, salad and dessert from one of our local Italian restaurants. (I'll have to be really strict during the day to leave enough calories for all of those carbs.)

About 1/2 cup of some sort of chicken pesto dish.. Not entirely sure what it was, but the chicken was super tender which was good.. But farrrrrking spicy n left my mouth feeling like it was on fire lol.

Cooking for my friend tonight. She's Fillipino and can't cook! So I'm doing her favourite Thai: Tom Ka Gai Soup (chicken and mushroom in a coconut broth).

all of it 100%.

a small steak (60g), 1/2 rasher bacon, 4 cherry tomatoes, a few rings of onion and a mushroom. Ate over 20 mins. Still full now :-)

Tonight was 3 cruskits with onion and chive flavoured lite philly cheese, shaved turkey breast and fresh cracked pepper. Was yummy. So yummy I'm going to take the same to have for lunch at tennis tomorrow.

Wow Carebear, how much of that yummy tea could you eat???

Eye Fillet steak with a garlic, wrapped in bacon. Mushroom and fried cherry tomatoes with onion. Yummmmy!

[email=Lol@the]Lol @the[/email] orange chicken spew. How I can relate (I threw up sushi in the fruit and veg shop after deciding it was fine to eat and shop... and then had a drink... and had no time to escape the shop in time! At least I grabbed one of their little bags first, so nobody had a mess to clean up... lol).

Tonight I had this: http://www.taste.com.au/recipes/19347/beetroot+baby+spinach+and+goats+cheese+salad

Was nice, but I had maybe a mouthful of leaves, 1.5 baby beetroots, a little cheese and a few bits of walnuts. Not much at all. I think it was the beetroot that filled me up, but I wouldn't have thought it would. Oh well.

Tonight will be grilled fish and mashed veggies, 2.5 weeks out and loving my sleeve.
