What's on your Wednesday Menu?
Good morning, everybody!
Marilyn is making a quick trip out to Colorado today. My son has a group project and she is going out to see the presentation. I will take her to the airport in about an hour and pick her up tomorrow evening. She is staying at the same hotel as Sheila had stayed at.
The project is for a senior design class. Groups of students pair with a business that sponsors them and the business brings a real life design challenge for the students to work on. My son's group was working on a testing machine for saw blades. The sponsor was a tool company. The students made their presentation to the client yesterday and received T-shirts, cordless drills and drill bit sets from the company. They were pretty excited about it. The Thursday part is more for the general public to come in and see what the students have been working on.
Julia S. - this ties into the QOTD, but is the reason that there are a zillion little stay puff marshamallow men on the Liberty Mutual commercial because the Ghostbusters were given a challenge similar to QOTD? I think that I remember you saw the movie.
QOTD - I think that really tall people have shorter lifespans, but assuming that is normalized for this hypothetical, I am going with 12 feet.
Breakfast: Bagel
Lunch: tacos
Dinner: cheeseburger
Have a great day, all!

M must be so proud. You guys are also lucky that DS allows you to go to these events. Coming from a mom who would give her right arm to attend a presentation if DS would agree to that.

Mornin' All!
one of my film groups meets this morning, then I have a massage at 1:00. I don't think I'll come home between them since that makes for too much back & forth driving (since the film group location is halfway out to the massage location (and it's a few miles away from my house), it seems sort of stupid to drive back home between them). Which means I'll have to eat lunch somewhere - or take a protein bar with me (the latter sounds like a better option - at least weight-wise). This sounds funny to say, but too bad it's such a nice day today - because if it weren't for the massage, I'd go biking later this afternoon. But working up a sweat after getting a massage sounds counter productive. Maybe I'll just go for a walk.
QOTD: it depends on how tall everyone else is. I don't like to stick out - which is one of reasons I hated being SMO.
coffee with half & half
plain skyr with cranberry/cherry compote
I'm sure someone will bring treats to the film meeting - which I can hopefully avoid
?? not sure on lunch
protein shake or Greek yogurt
chili or Loma Linda taco filling with diced tomatoes and salsa
have a great day, everyone!
Good Morning Queen JB and Meneurs,
Are you not close to the size of a Barbie? That would not be a stretch for you. LOL. Well at no point did OH allow me to log in yesterday. I had no problem this morning though.
They have released my mom to walk. So, this means so much more work. She will start PT on Thursday evening so no gym Thursday for me. She still is not smoking so that is exciting, and we parked her car at my brother's house, so she is not tempted. I still have the caregiver and as long as mom will accept her it breaks up her day and at least I know she is being handed food to eat. I cannot get her to eat for nothing. I do get 1 ensure in a day and I have this nasty protein supplement for wound healing. She did get it down yesterday but was not happy. I'll see if I can get another one in today.
For me I found some tonic on the shelf of the rural king it's called "Tonic Man old Fashioned tonic". Apple cider vinegar based with organic herbs. Says take a shot a day and if after 60 days you're not satisfied return all 4 bottles to the store for a refund. I am down 3 pounds since Saturday with very little head hunger. It does not taste great, but it is helping so I will continue and see what happens after 60 days. It would be nice if I lost a pound every 5 days. I know it is definitely cleaning out the colon.
QOTD: Teenie Tiny for sure. I was big enough for most of my life and when we first got HBO The incredible shrinking woman was on at least 5 times a day and I know it verbatim. I wish I was a little bar of soap!! I could live in a Malibu Barbie dream house no problem.
Accountability: I been doing good I also see portion sizes shrinking.
TSS: 6 years 4-months 13-days 162 Lowest (129.4)

MS: L&F Toasted Marshmallow Greek yogurt and berries
CB: Coffee with SF Coffee-mate chocolate caramel creamer

Have a great day my friends.
Brightest Blessings,
Chrissy
