What's On Your Tuesday Menu, RNYers?
Good morning OH peeps! (Mmmm peeps) I LOVE Pumpkin Spice Lattes. Last fall I went the whole season without one due to the sugar content. This season I plan to make a homemade version to keep the sugar and calories down. I don't thing I can deprive myself again. I have a love/hate relationship with Fall. I love the colors, the food, football and the kids going back to school. I HATE that it means winter is coming! Winters in Wisconsin last roughly 4-5 months and I can't bare to think of struggling through the cold and snow once again. I have loved the heat this summer and the 60 degree mornings this week have chilled me to the bone. I'm hoping my thermostat will readjust 2-3 years post surgery.
Time since surgery: 13+ months
B: Coffee with cream and Oatfit Cinnamon Roll Oatmeal
S: Kind Maple Glazed Pecan and Sea Salt (new to me)
L: Spinach salad with deli meat
S: Iced Coffee with cream
D1: Luna Protein Bar (before teaching)
Post workout: Protein Shake
D2: Chicken drumsticks (after teaching and workout)
W/V: Started

Totals: Calories 1132, Protein 76, Carbs 78, Fat 60

Hi all! I had a pretty stressful weekend, and I wanted to stress eat. Though I ordered All Of The Foodz, I was only capable of eating a little bit. A waste of money, but at least I didn't harm myself or overeat.

L: Pureed apples and pumpkin
S: coffee
D: Pureed squash and a big ol' protein drink
Cals: 620 Prot: 73.5 g H20: at least 48 oz, as I'll be drinking all day
Back on the horse,

Good morning, another misty morning here south of Boston. The damp is really getting to my knees.
I too am waiting for pumpkin season, fall is my favorite time of year, the colors, the sounds, the smells! I do like pumpkin bread, I make a a really yummy one, I also make a really wonderful pumpkin cheesecake, or I should say I used to. I won't be making that this year; well maybe just for Thanksgiving. I don't like pumpkin pie, I don't like pumpkin coffee though.
As for shaving the legs, I haven't had to do that for a few years, one of the perks of age I guess. Although I did notice a few stragglers recently. I hope this doesn't mean that I'm going to have to start again.
Time since surger: 4 months, 5 days
B: Premier Protein (yes I am a boring creature of habit)
L: Leftover steak and green beans
S: canteloup and mary's gone crackers
Dinner is up in the air, I have a chiropractor appt. and hubby taking dd to the sporting goods store for new field hockey equipment. They will probably eat out, I will scrounge the fridge for leftovers.
Pumpkins lovers, unite! I have to say that I love fall and spring equally... I love the smells of both and weather, etc.
As to shaving legs and other body parts... not a fan!!!! And, I will admit, I have a tendency to go au natural! In July, my gyn onocologist sprung an unexpected uterine biopsy on me and I told him... oh no, I didn't shave my legs for this! He looked at me like I was crazy! LOL... I think he thinks I am weird anyway because when he is all up in my business, I have a real tendency to be a chatty Kathy... hey, its my way to deal. LOL But, I guess I will be shaving more next summer because I will be wearing shorts and cute little dresses and I don't want people to think I am too much of a throwback!
My menu today (is ragged, I need to go to the store bad):
B: Tea with Truvia, chocolate Premier Protein shake
L: 1.75 oz of Cabot's Sharp Cheese, 1 navel orange
D: tuna salad over lettuce
S: 1 oz beef jerky.
Totals: Calories - 691, Protein - 71, Carbs - 42, Sugars - 18, Fats - 31
Vits/Water going in! Exercise - it's a pool day! (this is something I will miss after summer)
Have a good day!!
I love all the pumpkin talk!! I love all things pumkin and fall spices. I think I will light my pumpkin candles today in honor of all the pumpkin talk!
I completely agree with your thoughts on shaving AV. Another thing to love about fall/winter only shaving for Sunday church clothes.
B-mini sausage biscuit
S-Fiber Wafer
L-buffalo chicken on a salad
S-grapes
D-left over chicken salad ---and my 15yr old daughter was able to eat it for dinner to. I can't believe I use to eat a whole one by myself. Its a pretty sad state of our portion sizes when something that use to just feed me now feeds me twice and a teenager. Of course it was always my choice to put all of it in my mouth.
