What's on your Menu today (Tuesday) RNYers?
Good morning! Today is day one for me being back from vacation and having to go back to work and "the real world"... trying really hard to put my big girl pants on and just suck it up buuuut because I didn't track anything while I was off now I can't fit into them lol. I joke, but I'm actually pretty devastated about my choices. Addiction is real and making excuses to give into addictions is just as real. Back to basics and starting the week off with camaw/keto
qotd: I find all of it to be a struggle! I'll never not be addicted to food, I don't dump anymore so it's easier for my body to get away with extra everything. It's harder now to keep myself in line because I no longer have physical symptoms as a constant reminder of what I shouldn't be doing. Staying consistent and falling off the wagon is something that I will always struggle with. Another challenge for me will always be going out to restaurants with people. It's almost impossible for me to not overdo it in that situation. I just have to tell myself that everyday is a new day.
b- keto shake
l- leftover steak
d- tbd
s- maybe Greek yogurt
have a great day, everyone!

I know that feeling it is one I'll never forget. Laying on the bed trying to zip up pants that no longer fit. The absolute desperation of it. Just fit dammit, and when I squeezed into them the terrible pain of them cutting into my stomach. One time I was on a trip and it was all that I had with me and couldn't afford to buy anything new.
But you got this, you are making smarter choices and they will fit soon!
Take care of yourself, and don't beat yourself up too much just move forward with awareness.

Good morning and happy Tuesday. Today is my birthday spin class and i'm really looking forward to it. The owner of the studio where I spin/lift weights does "birthday rides" during your birthday month. You get to pick the music, etc. Some friends who don't normally spin are coming as are a few people from work and I've had a bunch of normal riders/instructors tell me they're going to be there. It means a lot to me that they're willing to take time out of their day/normal schedule to be there for me.
DQOTD: I have 2. My first is diet fatigue. After 4 years, I'm tired of weighing and measuring. I will admit that I take teeny tiny breaks from it when I just can't face it anymore. The second is dealing with the issues that have popped up post surgery. I'm tired of hypoglycemia/RH, I'm tired or worrying about whether a particular meal is going to make me sick. I'd like just one week where I didn't have to worry about any of it. Alas, it's not in the cards, so I take my meds, eat on plan and hope for the best.
My plan:
B: Bacon
L: leftover beef fajita with .5 oz of cheese. I also brought some leftover beans, but don't know if I'll eat them
D: ?????
S: Latte and a yogurt before the gym
E: 60 minute spin.
Good morning,
I didn't feel good last night so I didn't go to support group. I tried to go to the dr but they discontinued aftercare during the week so I got appointment this morning. I have a sinus infection so antibiotic and Flonase. Hopefully the antibiotic doesn't cause any problems. Then I went and voted.
This is my Friday today. No work till next Monday. I'm going to my brothers for the 4 day music festival tomorrow and coming home Sunday morning.
I ate good yesterday no snacking, had chicken, green beans and grapes for supper.
Qotd anything sweet, I have a hard time staying away from
B ham and cheese omelette, string cheese and pork and beans
L tuna, cottage cheese and grapes
D chicken, green beans and grapes
Have a good day

I have daily struggles. You have a great day and then get up and have to do ot all over again. I get real sick of that.
I'm living between 2 houses right now. Rotating watching my FIL. I eat the same food in the same bowls. He loves sugar and he doesn't get much from his wife. I'm having fun buying him dessert. Of course I know all the best stops.
Today coffee and chicken. Later yogurt with bran.
