    Bariatric Meal Plan

    AS MANY OF YOU KNOW I HAVE HAD AN ILEOSTOMY FOR THE PAST 5 YEARS. WHICH MEANS I HAVE NO COLON AT ALL. ALL THAT WAS LEFT WAS A SHORT END (18-24 IN) OF THE ILEUM WHICH IS THE TAIL END OF THE SMALL COLON. THIS WAS DUE TO A DIVERTICULITIS INFECTION OF MASS PROPORTIONS OVER TAKING MY ENTIRE ABDOMINAL CAVITY.
    THIS MEAL PLAN IS NORMALLY USED FOR PEOPLE WHO HAD WEIGHT LOSS SURGERY, HOW EVER I USE IT AS MY SURGERY WAS TO THE EXTREME OF WIGHT LOSS SURGERY
    I USE THIS PLAN AS IT WILL AIDE IN GETTING ME THE NUTRIENTS THAT MY BODY NEEDS AS WELL AS ALLOWING ME TASTY MEALS. I USE THE KAISER PEMANENTE WEB SITE AS A GUIDE TO MAKE UP MY MEAL PLAN

    Check in for 12/19

    Stay under my calorie goal (2210) ✔ 1714

    Get 5,000 steps a day✔ 7,384

    No eating out ✔

    Exercise for at least 20 minutes a day. ✔ 20 minute exercise bike

    No caffeine after 1pm (my dr's suggestion for sleep issues) ✔

    I’m setting my calories for a one-pound loss while I try to get a handle on a hungry stretch I seem to be going through. At worst I know how high I can go and still lose something. If I don’t use them yay I’ll lose my usual amount.

    Hey Team, got a quick question.

    My wife wants a fitbit for Christmas. I'm an android guy (Garmin), so I don't know anything about fitbits. She wants the square one, but has to have a watch face with a sweeping second hand thats she can see without readers. She doesn't run marathons, doesn;t need split times, or any of that stuff. Just wants to record steps, biking, HR, etc.

    I noticed the Fitness Blaze Special Edition has the watchface she likes, but it also has tons of features she is not interested in.

    Any input will be appreciated. Thanks.

    What roadblocks do you face?

    Postings from last week from our amazing team! Ty Kai @confidentravren for compiling the list!

    Here are some of my favorite websites concerning roadblocks that can hinder our goals! Also, my own comments! Hope everyone is having an awesome Tuesday!

    Fitting in more veggies or fruits
    Check out: https://www.heart.org/en/healthy-living/healthy-eating/add-color/how-to-eat-more-fruits-and-vegetables
    I also love making soups as my husband care for veggies! Great way to add more veggies in.

    Drinking enough water
    Check out: https://www.self.com/story/how-to-drink-more-water
    I keep a water bottle around me all day long. :)

    Me, myself, and I get in my way / I’m just bored so I eat
    I just want a snack!
    Check out: https://www.canyonranch.com/blog/nutrition/6-ways-to-control-your-food-cravings/
    I limit my trigger foods that I know once I start I will not want to stop. Am I really hungry or board, stressed, etc.

    I have no time to cook
    Check out: https://www.self.com/gallery/easy-ways-to-eat-healthy-when-youre-busy
    Plan ahead and prep ahead! Instead of grilling chicken for dinner for one evening make a large batch that you can freeze and pull out on busy nights.

    It’s the WEEKEND!
    Check out: https://skinnyms.com/11-tips-staying-track-weekend/
    Plan the menu for the following week.
    Taking time to plan healthy recipes for the upcoming week will make you more aware of what you are (or aren’t) putting into your body over the weekend. Love also, put in a longer workout. :)

    My family and friends
    Check out: https://www.shape.com/healthy-eating/diet-tips/how-stick-healthy-habits-holidays-unsupportive-family
    Calmly explain your goals to your family and the support your would appreciate their support!

    Have a wonderful Tuesday team!

    Tea time! 🍵

    Tonight I am enjoying a fragrant white called pomegrateful. Ahh, bliss.

    Last night I opened a new tea that I picked up for free with my frequent Steeper points: gingerbread blondie. It was heavy on the ginger. Disappointing, since I have a number of other ginger teas. And I must say, I haven’t been able to stomach it very well since my first pregnancy when I ate those ginger nausea tablets like nobody’s business. Not great memories.

    The night before was a black tea called chocolate covered almond. It was lovely and filled that craving for a little snack.

    This afternoon I had a plain Kenyan black at school. Sometimes you need something uncomplicated to bring you back in balance.
