What's on Your Wednesday Menu, RNYers?

Good Morning all!  Here's a funny:  it's raining here so instead of rummaging in the back for my umbrella, I just grabbed my windbreaker.  My windbreaker I haven't worn since last spring.  It's ENORMOUS on me, like a circus tent.  My husband was like, "you're not actually going to wear that in public, are you?".  LOL  Damn right, I am. 

Today's menu is a mess.  LOL  I did go grocery shopping last night, but managed to leave behind the bag that had my yogurt, cottage cheese and pork rinds in it.  I was so mad when I figured it out because I was in the middle of making my chicken salad that was supposed to be today's lunch.  I called Walmart and they were like, "yeah, we have your bag".  *sigh*  Looks like I'll be making another trip there today to get mah stuff.

B:  coffee and Fiber One chocolate cereal, dry.  I think I'm off milk for a while seeing as the last time I drank it was bad bad bad.

S:  Click Mocha.  I like having this at work because I get to annoy the co-workers I hate by shaking my blender bottle incessantly.

L:  2 string cheeses, celery sticks with garlic and herb Laughing Cow and an apple.  Sad desk lunch is sad.

D:  Buffalo Chicken salad with pork rind crackers, dammit.

Have a great day guys!

It actually isn't raining her this morning, its a little chilly, but not bad.  So I went for a nice walk this morning after dropping the kids off at daycare and before work!

The kids and I always eat at my parent's house on Wednesdays.  My husband goes to see my step daughter on Wednesdays.  Sooooo I don't know what I will have having for dinner.  I'm sure my mother isn't making anything that I can eat, and I don't really expect her to. So I may grab something from my house before going up, yogurt or some more egg salad.

Hi there! Just posted today for the first time - we are surgery twins! 

Good morning!  It's cold and dreary here but that is an improvement over last night.  When I was driving home from the gym it was a "wintery mix" or pure crap as I like to call it.  It was warm enough that it wasn't slippery but just seeing a snow like substance makes me angry!!  It's spring damnit!  I want sunshine and flowers!

Anyway, I hate hate hate when I forget bags at the store.  At least they still had them and hopefully put them somewhere cold!  I made it to Target last night after my swim but managed to grab cotton candy oreos for the kids, and very little for me.  I did pick up some Market Pantry Carb Conscious Tortillas which I really like because they are only 80 calories for a full size tortilla and have 6g of protein.  I also picked up some k-cups for the Kuerig at work.  Vanilla Bean Creme Brulee!  I'm hoping they don't disappoint.

Time since surgery: 9 months

B: SF Latte and Dunkin' Donuts Egg White, Turkey Sausage and cheese wake up wrap

S: Coffee and string cheese

L: Pork buns (out with friend)

S: Kay's Cinnamon Toast Pretzels

D: Tuna on Carb Conscious Tortilla

Post workout: EAS Carb Contol Shake

S: Half a Skinny Cow Ice Cream Sandwich

W/V: Started

E: Spin class

Totals: Calories 1209, Protein 92, Carbs 135 (ouch), Fat 40

Have a great day all!

Yeah, we are forecast a "wintry mix" for tomorrow morning.  Not cool, Ma Nature.

Vanilla bean Creme Brulee is my favorite flavor of coffee. In fact I am enjoying a cup right now!

I gotta admit that this is tasty coffee.  Two thumbs up!

I'm actually one of those people that get to gloat about their weather for once. It dawned a beautiful morning here in suburban Philly and I happily went for a walk instead of hitting the gym for the boring walking on the track I had planned. The only down side to that was that I was going to spy a little on a particular spinning class this morning, but I can do that any time! This new job means that I need to figure out a new gym routine and I haven't quite got it down yet.

AV, that is SUCH a bummer about your grocery bag, such a pain. I've done that before and it is so disappointing! 

But let's talk about pork rinds for a second. I bought some recently hoping to like them and I just didn't. But maybe I should try a different brand? Different flavor? What do you get?

Time since surgery: 13 months

B: breakfast sandwich, coffee with cream

S: L&F with sliced almonds

L: cottage cheese double, string cheese, granola thin

S: beef stick and a Babybel Light

D: TJ's turkey meatballs with sauce and cheese

S: maybe a Balance Bar while I'm with my ESL student, SkinnyPop, Yasso bar

V/W: started, but my liquids have been a real struggle at the new job, again, something I need to figure out a new normal and I just haven't. I think I need to get a self-filtering bottle...

E: walked for just about 40 minutes this morning - at 5,000 before 9am? I'll take it.

I usually get my pork rinds at Dollar Tree.  LOL  I think the ones I left behind last night were Baken-ets.  Something like that.  I'll tell you, I don't usually eat them by themselves.  I use them as a vehicle for other things, like tuna or chicken salad.  They do make flavored ones, though, like BBQ and Hot and Spicy. Those are pretty good straight outta the bag.
