I am a very organized person. Walking into an office supply store quickens my heartbeat and engages my salivary glands. I love dividers, pens, paper clips, post-its, post-it labels, post-it tabs, index cards, index card file boxes, and my planner. I organize everything in my house. I would like to marry my labelmaker. Organization makes me feel at peace and far less anxiety.
Today I was making up a new menu planner and a new shopping list. The ones I had weren't functioning very well for me. Since I had gastric bypass surgery, in order to get adequate nutrition - especially the recommended 90 grams of protein - I have to eat six small meals a day. Most menus I could find online only had space for one snack, but I need one after each main meal. So I designed my own menu and shopping list, which I like to print back to back on one sheet of paper, having the menu and shopping list together on one sheet of paper. I thought I would share these with you, especially those of you who are bariatric patients like myself. Though I should be eating only three meals, I have to eat more in order to get the amount of nutrients I need.
