What are you eating/doing this Monday?

Good morning everyone. Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. DH and I had a lot of drives in the country with the top down. At least I got lots of Vitamin D.

Once again I was tired so I slept in. Tomorrow I go to see the doctor, so I will talk to him about iron.

Today I have some things to do around the house, and then I think I will hit the gym.

Accountability: Very good

Question of the day: We are 3 weeks out from Thanksgiving. My questions are: let's start thinking about 1. legal Thanksgiving dishes. 2. ways we can be thankful. 3. Ways we can give back. 4. Activities that we can do that will work these new bodies we are building. It's a lot to think about, but truthfully it's hard for me to come up with questions of the day, and finding ways to cope with holidays is always a good strategy.

The eats today at 4 years post-op:

B. Rivers of decaf

L. Baby greens salad with some grilled chicken

D. Shrimp tacos (I know it's not taco Tuesday yet). If I am not lazy I will make my taco shells out of melted cheese. If I am too lazy I will make a shrimp taco salad. Have a good day everyone.

Good morning :)

We just got back from the lab -- I needed to get blood work for an appointment for six weeks after having the baby. I get all the bariatric blood work, plus the Guelph clinic has a list for during pregnancy, and the doctor adds in the ones she wants. I thought they were going to have to go in both arms to get it all. I love that we can get the results online so I don't have to wait and I can keep track of trends.

QOTD: I'm looking forward to hopefully having some turkey but I don't know how this year is going to go -- we might end up doing our own little Thanksgiving because my MIL is moving that weekend and my parents are staying up north. They have invited us up for the weekend but DH doesn't have any vacation time left. I will ponder your questions CC -- sounds like something to keep me occupied during our night feedings ;)

Post-op three years and six months. No menu today, but dinner will be leftover steak. Lots and lots of water.

Meg I am with you on getting the results online. My only test still pending is Vitamin A. I heard they send it to Hamilton.

Think about the questions while feeding the little nugget. I expect Venn diagrams and flowcharts before Thanksgiving, lol.

Ya, a couple of mine take a while too. One time my vitamin A sample somehow got ruined in transit and I had to get it redone.

The only way I'm doing a Venn diagram at night is in crayon ;) lol. Right now I'm thankful for a little baby who is getting healthier and has chubby cheeks starting. A big change in a month!!

Love me some little baby chubby cheeks and chubby little legs. As if the little nugget couldn't be even more gorgeous, you add those chubby cheeks into the mix and I am smitten. I'm glad that she is bulking up and meeting her milestones. You have a whole lot to be thankful for.

I'm going to send you a PM :)

Wow what a great weekend eh.. Ill take them any day of the week.
