What's on your Wednesday Menu?

Good mornin everyone. I've been up since 12:49 so this promises to be a long day! Good luck on LadyGodiva's surgery today!

Not a lot planned for the day. At least that I know of. My mom wants me to make pumpkin bread for presents, fudge and some candy. We need to get some supplies to do so. I have to find a new somewhat plain pumpkin bread recipe. My mom decided she didn't like the one I've used for a few years. I'll make peanut butter and chocolate fudge. Chocolate covered peanuts and I forget which other she wants to do.

It was another day of feeling like crap yesterday. Nauseous and achy. I have three bright red splats on my arm where I got the Covid shot and it's really sore. I was in so much pain with my legs and feet last night too. The 3rd can't come soon enough. At least then I'll have pain meds until they fill the pump with the morphine on the 24th.

QOTD: not even close to it! My brother was once...he didn't pay a ticket and voila got another one and was arrested. Pretty stupid if you so me! LOL. He was in his late teens and we all know how stupid one can be at that age.

B: JUST egg bowl & coffee

L: leftover homemade pizza

D: hamburger soup

S: ????

I got a new app from adobe and loved this edit of Opal.

Sorry you are struggling with pain. Does your mom help with the cooking?

Good morning ~ Yesterday was a success at work! My new office is coming together nicely. Having everything I need and being able to get work done was amazing. I floated out of there last night and slept like a baby. Hopefully today is just like that. I have deadlines I want to meet and beat this month. Thankful for a light calendar today.

QOTD - no

Yesterday:

b- coffee, egg-wich

l- chicken w/salad

d- red pepper soup and cheese its

s- TJ's tomato cheese bites - taste like grilled cheese and tomato soup - I like

w - 2 glasses

e- I want too but I'm so tired and painfully achy most of the time. I know it would probably help, but I just want to get through the all procedures and tests and to treat and/or rule out all the things. The guilt is real when I look at my treadmill and the vault...

Today:

b - coffee, eggs w/cheese

l - chicken broc cauli w/ a little alfredo

d- chicken and green beans if it kills me, 3rd time is a charm

s/w/e - 0

Have a great day

Girl, no guilt. You are taking care of yourself and that is what is most important. The vault and treadmill will be there when you're ready

Getting through the surgery is job number one for both of you actually. But what may help is to just start with a stretching program. Make a conscious effort to change into your gym clothes, go into your workout space and do your stretches. If you develop a ritual, the intensity will follow. And hopefully the stretching helps with some of the aches.

I'm with you on the exercise. But at least you have an excuse. I can't even say I have a reason. Just like I have bible study tonight but if someone rings my phone for happy hour, I am in. So much for accountability!!

Good Morning! JB- you truly are doing so awesome! Make sure you're taking the time when you can to celebrate the wins when they come. I have a short work day and trying to cram as many phone screens in as I can. Pre-op today so praying there aren't any issues and a negative Covid test.

QOTD: Nope, no stories here.

TSS: 8 years 3 months

B: SF latte, Fiber/protein oatmeal, turkey sausage, and an orange

L: Turkey and cheese sticks, carrots, SF pudding and some fruit

S: P3, a piece of fruit and yogurt

D: Chicken breast, TJ cauliflower gratin, sliced orange/banana, and 2 squares dark chocolate

ES: Greek yogurt and a chaffle

E: Elliptical

V/W: On track

Totals: Cals:1535 Protein:116 Carbs:132 Fat:61

Have a great one!

Is surgery tomorrow? I hope everything goes well for you and that your are back in no time.

Surgery is scheduled for Friday.

Good Luck with Pre-Op. This is coming quick and fast. You'll be running before you know it.
