What's on Your (photo) Friday Menu, RNYers?
Good Morning and welcome to photo Friday! Post away! There's no theme today, so whatever you got, I wanna see it. I had a hell of a time trying to scan my tiny MC Ball picture, so I ended up taking a picture of the picture with my crappy phone, hence the awesome quality/clarity. Anyway, this is me and my main squeeze back in 2002. This right in the middle of the 4 years I wasn't super fat. LOL I had lost like 120 lbs thanks to WW, but two years after this picture was taken, I got married, promptly got pregnant and gained 150 lbs. Good times.
QOTD! What was your wedding song? If you're not married, what would you pick? For the marrieds, would you pick something different if you had a do-over? My wedding song, selected by my husband, was Elvis' Love Me Tender. I went along with it, because frankly I made most of the other decisions involving the wedding, but I kind of hate it. LOL I didn't realize it until we were dancing, but do you have any idea how slow and endless this ******g song is? It's like a dirge. I would definitely pick something else if I was doing it again. I'm kind of partial to Never My Love by the Association. I actually made my husband a "mix tape" CD (FYE for the win!) for our 10th anniversary and that's on it.

Have a great day and an awesome weekend!
Great pic!!! I'd probably be super snarky and pick something like, "I Will Survive" ;)
Speaking of surviving, I managed to leave work early since I had no food or wallet with me yesterday. Phew, thank goodness for canceled afternoon meetings. I packed enough for 3 days today, just in case!

I'll pay anything. Either that, or go over to the other garage and get my shovels and ice melt out.
If my daffodils die, I'll be very cross.

We didn't have a reception with dancing, kind of makes me sad now. Just cake and food and socializing. For our anniversary this year (20th) we are planning on going to Hawaii. By God, I am getting a honeymoon out of that man lol. We got married when I was 18 (not pregnant lol) because we were SOOOO in love. He was 22. Anyway, I am getting off track.
B- 1C refried beans w/cheese. My husband was gagging but this was really good this morning.
L- Sweet and sour soup & 2 piece crab rangoon
D- probably the innards of chicken fajitas, but I'm taking my 10 year old on a "Date w/Mom" so he will pick the food
Totals: 1200 is what I'm shooting for, shouldn't go over unless I go crazy and eat something off plan.
Oh some good surgery news: I changed to BCBS Federal Basic plan this year (from Standard, which costs more) because their Bariatric surgery coverage looked better. I only have a $100 copay for surgery! Me for the win!
