What's On Your Monday Menu, RNYers?
I don't mind paying for it. It's not a million times better with the paid version, or anything, but it's an app I use everyday so I'm happy to give them some of my financial support.

I mainly use MFP on my computer, I have a work laptop that goes everywhere with me so I use the main site mostly. I only use the MFP app on my iPhone if I want to use the "scan a bar code" function, so I don't really notice the ads at all, sorry. I never get taken to the app store when I input my stuff on my iPhone, that is werid

Good Morning! You guys, please remind me that milk is no longer my friend. I decided to have some Ovaltine on Friday morning before I left for work because I made some for my son and it looked so damn good. Well, you can probably guess what happened about 30 minutes later. Let's just say I needed to make an emergency pit stop at the Wegmans on Onondaga Blvd. I actually called my boss from the bathroom stall to tell her I would not be in that day. HA! Post-op life.
How was everyone's weekend? We got an early season snow event; probably 10 inches of snow fell yesterday. And guess what? It's still. effing. snowing. I had already taken the snows off the cars and put away all the winter gear. It took me like 20 minutes to find my boots yesterday so I could walk the dog, who was not at all happy to go for walkies. He kept looking up at me like I was somehow responsible for his snow covered coat. LOL
QOTD! Do you have a famous relative? Anyone in your family tree? Sadly, I am not related to anyone famous (that I know of), but my Dad played drums with Harry Chapin when he was in college. Extra points to anyone who knows who that is.
Time since surgery: 20+ months
B: Friendship Fit to Go cottage cheese and 6 cinnamon raisin bagel chips
S: nada
L: Ham salad with pork rinds and a cheese stick
D: More ham because goddammit if my husband wants me to bake a ham he's going to eat until it's gone. I think I'll warm mine up in a pan with some sharp cheddar and the guys can eat the leftover gnocchi and carrots.
TOTALS: Cals: 883 Protein: 73 Carbs: 39 Fat: 49
Have a great day! If anyone tells me it's sunny and warm where you are, I unfriend you!
It is quite nasty out here this am!! Bring back spring.... Damn snow!!
Good morning, all! I have court this morning so I thought I'd post before leaving home. KQOTD- Absolutely no one famous, but I love all your stories. The weather here this weekend was lovely. . . It topped out at 88 yesterday and will be hot thru Thursday, then it may rain. Just in time for my 1/2 marathon on Saturday. Fun! I added carbs back in this weekend and I'm up 1 lb. grrrr. I may have to go back to critter this week (except for the 1/2 which is throwing a wrench in the plans). Also, I have an endoscopy scheduled for Friday which may or may not be another 1/2 marathon wrench.
Here's my plan:
B: turkey, pesto and cheese
L: rib eye (4.1 oz)
D: tri tip
S: light and fit, latte (x2) my favorite independent coffee place is by the courthouse and I finally got my nespresso back from being repaired. So I will continue to tell myself that I'm drinking "coffee" when in reality it's just brown water, but a girl's got to do what a girl's got to do.
