WATCHA EATING TODAY, VSGers? Sunday, 30 Dec 2018

Good Sunday morning. We're in SC for a couple of weeks - temperate but rainy this morning.

We come every year to spend NYE with friends of over 60 years, so its always a good break from "retired".

QOTD: If you have a best friend, what makes her/him that person and how long has your friendshp been? I'll answer in comments.

B: 1/3 premier protein shake, 1/4 serving of shrimp grits

S: Coffee w/premier protein

L: Etouffee

S: Chobani yogurt

D: TBD

QOTD: If you have a best friend, what makes her/him that person and how long has your friendshp been? I do. I have two -- the first is fortunately my husband of 17 years; he's kind, tolerant, loyal, funny and (to me) just the best person for a long road trip (one of my "friendship measures"). So 17 years. My other best friend would be Donna. I've known her about 5 years now, since she & family moved from WI to NC. She's honest, funny, opinionated, and fun! Also deeply spiritual, as is my husband.

I can't leave out long time friends (38 years, Celeste); Sharyl - 20 years; Celeste D - 18 years; Pam - 18 years. I'm just really blessed!

Good morning! Enjoy your time in SC Annie!

I'm seeing blue skies to the west, so as soon as the sun shines I am out of here for a hike with Emmy. Then a trip to Target to spend a gift card and groceries last.

QOTD-Other than my mother and my dog Emmy, I would have to say my Aunt BettyJo and my dear friend Mercy. My Aunt has become one of my best friend over the last 20 years, more so the last 5. Mercy is 90 years old and has been in my life for the past 6 years. She is non-judgmental, loyal and a sort of spiritual teacher.

B-1/3 cup granola, coffee

L-Fage yogurt with peaches and pecans

S-Hot tea

D-dark green leafy salad with some kind of protein added, tbd.

E-Hike with Emmy

Have a good Sunday!

Hi! Sorry I haven't been too consistent on this thread the last couple of weeks. We have been very busy since we came home for the holiday and I am usually an early morning poster as well.

QOTD: My eldest DD was my best friend for a few years as an adult before she passed away at age 32. She was the first one I would call to talk to or to go out to dinner with. My DH used to be consistently my "best friend" as well for about 35 years, but not anymore with his Alzheimer's. I'm not sure I have a "best friend" at this point though I do have a large group of friends here and in Florida, a couple of whom I have known for more than 50 years.

2 Years 9 months post-op (maintaining below goal for 2 years, 1 month)

Always lots of coffee...

B: eggs, cottage cheese and Canadian bacon

L: Deli chicken

D: Halibut and veggies from DS' restaurant (he is using comp $ to get our takeout)

S: cottage cheese, maybe some nut thins and hummus
