What are you eating/doing today? (Thursday)
Good morning lovely Menu Peeps. My menu is going to be a little vague today because I'm going out for lunch with friends, but it will have some form of protein and a salad.
I'm going to the gym this afternoon, and then I have to meet a friend for coffee.
Accountability: Nope, there was a late night snack of chicken salad at 2 in the morning.
Question of the Day: Do you plan on doing something interesting for your surgiversary? One year I went ziplining. This year I plan to go kayaking all summer which is my present to myself. It could be as simple as a very long walk or bike ride or a piece of jewellry.
B. Rivers of decaf with SF Coffeemate
L. Protein and salad
D. Herb and wine salmon with a poached egg on top and a little Hollandaise, sliced avocado
S. Protein hot latte
Have a great day everyone and make great choices.

Good morning :)
I'm going to avoid the rain today so it will be a mostly inside day. I was outside a lot yesterday and we BBQ'd dinner (I love BBQ season). I have a doctor's appointment and we are going out for dinner with my grandparents and cousins.
QOTD: you know, I never really did anything special during the weight-loss phase or my surgiversaries... Mostly I think because I typically forget until I see my clinic appointment in my calendar lol. I think the little daily NSVs have been the most impactful and made life better in general - like being more comfortable when traveling and not needing plus size clothing.
Post-op three years, two months.
Breakfast - protein shake
Snack - leftover burger
Lunch - leftover burger and bacon
Snack - toast and PB
Dinner - restaurant
Snack - pudding if needed
All water and vits.
Meg it looks like Baby Thor/Nacho is craving beef.
I am grateful for the daily NSV's, but I wanted to do something that I never would have done, or could have done pre-WLS.

I've come to realize that I'm not super adventurous... I think I probably would have bought something for myself as a treat, I just don't know what that would be lol.
Baby is super happy with beef... It had a little dance party last night when I was trying to go to sleep. I told my grandma it would be ready to join Riverdance ;) I find out today if baby is measuring well.
Fingers crossed that Baby Thor is bulking up.

PostOp : only 6 days hahah
Today I am working hard on the school yearbook (elementary school) for my kid's graduating class. I don't know why I put my hand up for this, but no one else was, so I figured I should. Might do a wee walk to the mailbox and back or something, but mainly going to town on the yearbook.
Accountability: I am still struggling with the giant vitamins and the liquid and shakes. BUt I'll figure it out. It's getting better daily.
QOTD: it seems so far away that I've never thought of it. I am not an 'adventuresome' person either (translation: I hate bugs and burn to a crisp in the sun within seconds haha). Maybe a trip or maybe some shopping specific thing. The date of my surgery already is meaningful for me, so I'll never forget it :)
B:chocolate premiere protein blended with ice and black cherry Torani sf syrup
L: don't know yet. Probably something wild and exciting. Like a vanilla premiere protein with butterscotch syrup. haha
D: Mom made some really nice old school soup-bone and veggie, strained bone broth for me. Smells amazing.
Your shakes sound yummy. I made some bone broth the other day. I keep it in the freezer as an emergency go to when I'm having an angry pouch day.
