A New Way of Eating...???

My previous post spoke of the scolding I got by my doctors RN about my eating habits.  I had the following food the day after my appointment:

BREAKFAST - Protein Shake
LUNCH - Steak and Chicken kabobs and salad from Daphne's (one of my favorite places)
DINNER - El Pollo Loco - 2 piece thigh dinner with salad (my other hang out)

So this may be the recommended eating plan, however, it was way too much food for me!  In my pre-surgery days, I could have ate all of that and more.  Today, forget it!  I could have easily stopped at lunch and called it a day.

The day after the one mentioned, I had a protein shake for breakfast, then Pollo Loco for lunch at about 3pm.  It was great and filling.  I had no cravings for anything other than hot tea in the evening.  Can't I just continue to do this?  I like it so much better and I am losing weight.  Heck, they are lucky I am eating breakfast!  Well a shake that is...

On another subject, I recently bought a pair of size 20 pants.  I started this adventure wearing size 24 pants!  Here is my most recent picture.
