What's on your Tuesday Menu?
Good morning everyone. Today might be the first lawn mowing of the summer. I don't know about you, but I'm pretty excited. Otherwise it's the usual exercise and housework routine.
QOTD: I wasn't much of a shopper as a teen. I didn't browse at stores. If I needed something I went to Sears or Kmart. I was a little fascinated by Spencer's Gifts, but never bought anything. It was just so unlike any other store.
6'3" tall, male.
Highest weight was 475. RNY on 08/21/12. Current weight: 198.
M1 -24; M2 -21; M3 -19; M4 -21; M5 -13; M6 -21; M7 -10; M8 -16; M9 -10; M10 -8; M11 -6; M12 -5.
Good morning all! It's a gorgeous day here in DC - this time of year we have cool nights and warm days. It's 70s for the next couple of weeks and then the heat and humidity will crush us all haha.
I can't believe Express is closing! It's the end of an era. When I got down to my lowest weight post RNY I would buy some cute tops there, to wear under a blazer at a conference. My go to spots in the early 90s were: anywhere that sold Girbaud jeans, BUM Equipment, and that store (was it called Units?) where you basically bought stretchy swaths of fabric. Do you know what I'm talking about? It was basically modular clothing haha. I'm so envious of all the amazing plus size options today's generation gets to have. It was much more limited back in the day.
Today is a little up in the air - I didn't go to the gym this morning and I'm not sure I can escape at 4 for the afternoon class. TBD. If I do go to class I am picking something up for dinner cuz I'm not in a cooking mood!
B: leftover smoked fish and cream cheese maybe on crackers
L: leftover rotisserie chicken with cheese and peri peri sauce
D: possibly Chipotle?
Have a most wonderful day!
Good morning, everybody!
I went to the gym last night and just didn't have any pep. It's funny how a 6:30 Monday class can feel so exhausting, but a 6:30 Friday class can feel so wonderful. Theoretically, I would be more tired on Friday, right?
I think that we have a plan for moving my older son out of his apartment. His drop dead move out day is June 22nd. But Marilyn and DD are going to be in Scotland chasing Taylor Swift from the 7th through the 17th. And while she won't say it out loud, I don't think that Marilyn trusts me to handle the move out on my own. So on the Saturday 1st of June, we are going to both go out and move him home. I think that Marilyn will go a few days early, rent a truck, and get him packed up. I am going to run a 10K the morning of the 1st, and then fly to Denver early afternoon. They will meet me at the airport with the moving truck and his pickup truck and we will immediately start driving home. Four hours on Saturday and 10 on Sunday will do the trick.
DCgirl's story about bringing a whole smoked trout to the salon reminded me of the scene in the Corrections where one of the characters is shoplifting a salmon and runs into an old friend who wants to connect in the store. A whole lot less awkward for her, though, I'm sure.
QOTD: Lands' End for clothes and Strawberries for records. Although I probably bought as many Hostess snack cakes at convenience stores as anything.
Breakfast: Bagel
Lunch: Sausage and spaghetti
Dinner: Fajitas
Have a great day, all!

Good morning ~ Yay for productive days and lazy ones too for that matter - both are good. Yesterday was rough with an unexpected report issue - it was quite a challenge. Even though I'm good at this sort of thing, it was stressing me out because of other things I needed to get done. Anyway it's over, I can move on with my month. Today we are celebrating Admin Prof Day a day early with a Taco Tuesday lunch and my current/previous unit staff. Should be fun. I will never, ever tire of tacos in my lifetime.
QOTD - TBH, I don't remember! The stores and little boutiques downtown were great. I remember going to the mall with my friends, but never for shopping - it was always friends, boys, roller skating, arcade, movies and food. I didn't fit into to clothes at regular stores. My mom took me to Lane Bryant for clothes or a store like that usually far away since they didn't have them in my town. I think I was a size 16/18 maybe a 20? Plus sized clothes were very hard to find back then.
Accountability - perfect! 177.4. Week 2, day 2 treadmill done. I can't believe how fast the time passes. So far it's going well and I'm not stressed in the least about putting in the time and effort. I've upped my minimum time to 20 minutes or more. Next week 25, then 30. I will work on intensity after that and add weight days. That is the plan!
b- cottage cheese, tomatoes
l - 1 carne asada soft taco made into 2, or the innards of 2 tacos.
d - ham steak, mashed potatoes and peas
s - cucumbers
Have a great day!
