What are you eating/doing this Friday?
Good morning Menu Mates. We made it to the weekend. Hope everyone has some good plans to enjoy your time off. DH and I are going to the music festival downtown to people/dog watch, listen to some great live music, maybe eat some BBQ, and in general just enjoy the summer weather.
Yesterday I had a fun day at the pool party, and would do that again any time.
Accountability: Pretty good. I did have half of a fresh fig, but other than that it was all good.
Question of the day: If money was no object, what car would you like? I have always been partial to a Jaguar E type.
4 years post-op, the eats today are:
B. Rivers of decaf with cream and sweetener
The rest of the day will be iced Americanos, BBQ, I will pack some pepperettes and nuts. I will make sure I drink LOTS of water (with added decaf) and dance, dance, dance like no one is watching.

Good morning :)
Thanks for all the baby love from everyone!! We are so happy to have her here and healthy. I have turned into a real carb addict this week but it's all good :) Just checking in because food and timing are totally up in the air. Just focusing on getting lots of water like in the early days. I ordered more protein bars as a back up.
QOTD: I don't have a particular car that I want but I would like an SUV, maybe something hybrid or electric with all the bells and whistles.
Post-op three years and five months.
Food tbd. All water and vits.
Glad you're feeling well! Congrats again on the little one, she's a cutie

Keep up the healthy fats and protein Meg. Remember, Thorbelina sleeps, you catch a nap. She is the cutest little nugget.

Good morning! Glad you had fun at the pool party, CC. How's the AC situation? Has it been better at night?
I have my 1 month follow-up/post-surgery class on Monday. I'm looking forward to asking lots of questions and meeting other wls peeps.
Today I'm excited because the scale dropped down a few lbs. I've been in a something of a stall the last 2 weeks, losing less than 1 lbs every few days. So it was a pleasant surprise to see the number this morning.
Accountability: Had a couple of teaspoonfuls of marinara sauce with ground beef, which I was cooking, pureeing, and freezing yesterday.
QOTD: Hmm, no idea. I know next to nothing about cars That Jaguar E type looks pretty cool though, CC. I love vintage style like that.
Food:
Breakfast: genoa salami, gruyere
Lunch, Snack, Dinner: 3 protein shakes, although I might substitute one shake for more salami and cheese (because I want to clear out what I have in the fridge). I'll see how I feel.
Same stats as yesterday, unless I go for the salami and cheese in which case I haven't calculated yet. Protein would be in the neighborhood of 80g though.
Have a great Friday and great weekend, everyone.
