Good morning, AV where are you??  (although I love you too Anny) I sincerely hope everything is ok and she just no longer has time for us due to winning the lottery or something else as exciting.  I have to give my first set of HR training to new supervisors this afternoon and I am scared out of my mind.  I don't mind public speaking but I am not super experienced in the material so I am NERVOUS.

Question of the day: What movie are you most looking forward to seeing this summer (or have seen)?  My daughter is dying to see the Minion movie and my son wants to see Pixel.  I want to see Magic Mike

Rainy day here in Illinois but Lily and I managed to get one mile in at the park before we got too wet. I will do three more miles after lunch on the treadmill and that will do it for today for exercise. Weight today at 117 and 34.25 months post op. On track with vitamins and fluids and here's the food for today: B 1/2 c steel cut oats with protein powder and half a banana with peanut butter L 31/2 oz chicken cheese rollup and a 1/2 c sauteed squash D 31/2 oz shrimp and 1/2 c squash S 1/2 c oats with protein powder. Have a great day everyone full of good choices!

Oh, thank you!  I'm super busy here at work and my hours are changed so I'm all over the place this week!  I will be back later to post my menu...

Gulp!... I hate to ask, but did you get the job?? Or, are they just abusing the heck out of you?? Inquiring minds want to know!

I don't knooooowww!  LOL  But, yes they are abusing me.  Training new hires is not in my current job description.  *hmph*

I can't wait to see Pixels!!  Great cast and a great throwback to my childhood.  

My period is coming up so I am fighting cravings BAD!  Its everything I can do to not eat bread!!!  I might make some pita pizzas tonight instead of what I have planned to calm the cravings.  It will cost me some carbs but its better than caving to some white bread or chips.
