What's on your Wednesday Menu?
I have tried most of them and most of them taste like school cafeteria specials to me. Hello Fresh was really good when it started but have gotten to be less quality than at first, dried spices instead of fresh and just too many meals with carrots on the side.

G'morning all!
QJB - great job on doing everything on your to do list, it gives you great satisfaction at the end of the day. But have a look at that knee and have it taken care of. You don't wanna deal with this long term.
As usual I am jealous of you people with sunshine and warmth. Our highest temps have been low 60s. Even Luna has become like a cat and as soon as the sun peaks out she goes out and lays in the sun for the few minutes it's out.
QOTD: I always wanted to be a diplomat, traveling the world and changing location every 4 years. I studied for it, and I even did it for a couple of years. But then DH happened and my line of job wasn't available where I live. I even tried a couple of embassies in San Francisco but at the time telecommuting wasn't a thing and I had to be living in the city. The defense language institute was another possibility but they would take only US citizens, and at the time I wasn't. I subbed there for a couple of semesters but the citizenship was an obstacle. So eventually I fell into event planning and the company paid for me to go back to school to get the knowledge (budgeting, negotiation, etc). It suits me because I like details, but it isn't my dream job.
My meals yesterday:
- Coffee
- Chicken skewers, grape tomatoes
- Protein pudding, jello, jerky, pickled peanuts
- Tuna & quest chips
- E: cardio + weight
Happy hump day!

Good Morning Queen JB and Menuers,
I am all about the meme today for sure. I started running(wogging) trying to get in good enough shape to run the 5K on the 4th. I don't know if I will make it, but I am trying. Sunday I was doing a 14:58 mile and today I did a 13:38 mile. I have 3 5K's under my belt this week. I am ready to pull out clothes I know do not fit.
I did take Jen's advice and ran for 1/2 hour in the pool yesterday and the results got me out of bed to run this morning, so I am happy. I also downloaded one of those apps that gives you at home exercises to do every day. It is pretty cheesy so I will cancel it at day 6. But you have seen them like a 28-day challenge the one I loaded was JustFit. I actually see it being beneficial for someone that needs motivated but for myself, I think I got my Mojo back and going to ask the Chiropractor if I can get back at the gym on my next appointment.
QOTD: No not at all. I tried to do IT in college and that did not go well, then I went to Beauty school, and it went well to a point that I actually taught at the school for a while. Sales was definitely not on my radar, but it is lucrative for someone that does not have a college degree. That is why I stay. Heading into year 27 in October.

L: RGF chicken poblano enchiladas (just realized these are 500CAlories. No wonder I gained yesterday. it has 32g of protein but 27 carbs. I did not realize these have flour tortillas. Yikes. No wonder they were so good.
D: Zucchini Lasagna
Exercise: Dog walking 3.1-mile wog (done)
Water and Vitamins: On track. I take a Bariatric Advantage Ultra multi w/iron I use bariatric advantage Calcium chews and 500mg of Magnesium. I also use MiraLAX and fiber in my first coffee of the day.
Have a great day my friends.
Brightest Blessings,
Chrissy
