What's on your Sunday Menu, RNYers?
on 4/17/16 3:47 am
Good Sunday Morning! It's a 3 day weekend for me, which makes today especially wonderful. I also had a pretty much perfect day, yesterday. Yay for perfect weekends!
A little over a year ago my parents had a massive house fire that destroyed their antique 1880's Victorian home. It's been a pretty devastating year. They are about to break ground on the rebuild, which is exciting!! And Grim was kind enough to offer his big ol' truck (and big ol' muscles) to help pick up some of the building supplies. There is a good chance this means he'll meet my family today, too!
QOTD: If you were on death row and had to choose your last meal, what would it be (assuming no RNY restrictions). I have no idea what I'd choose for the last meal portion, but there would definitely be a warm brownie for dessert!
Meal plan is up in the air. Starting with protein coffee, and taking it from there... I promise to make good choices--no brownies allowed, since I plan to live another day!

What an odd coincidence. I had a pretty much perfect day yesterday too.
I've had my breakfast Quest bar, but no eating plan beyond that. I know I won:t be eating too much, so I'm ok with that.
QOTD: Death row meal. It would have to be a ribeye, and with a variety of chocolate for dessert . I don'the know if I could pick which kind though

Good early morning from the west coast! I took "a nap" at 6pm, woke up at 12am, and here I am. I'm doing laundry and cleaning house, but I foresee a morning cat nap later.
That's awful about the fire, JB... I lost so much stuff after my parents died if I had a fire and lost EVERYTHING I would have gone crazy. It's good that you have someone wonderful to help you out
I'm not planning a menu today, I'll stay on track, I always do. I'm working harder to get more protein in, this has been too hard of a journey to screw up over some meals. Boyfriend wants French toast for brekky, he thinks I make the best ever. I've tweaked the recipe recently, and the funny thing is I've never tasted it. He's convinced I need to enter a cooking contest...LOL
QOTD: I make, well used to make, homemade bread by hand, I want a loaf of that and a stick of butter. With a homemade yellow cake with chocolate icing.
Now, you know why I weighed 300lbs.

You deserve applause for "this has been too hard a journey to screw up over some meals!!" You got that right. Don't let life and all its curve balls derail you from all you hard work and progress to date. You got this!
Love cat naps, nothing wrong with them at all, go for it! Especially this early out, you need to rest and let your body heal!!
Love your last meal as well, mmmmmm cake & icing, my pre WLS downfall!!
Daisy, you are the sweetest.
If only you knew what a terrible "sick person" I am, and I have been sick A LOT, or just not felt up to par, especially in the beginning. I NEVER want to go through any of this again, and achieving this goal means so much to me. I have been the "weird, fat kid/person" my whole life, now I'm ready to be just "weird"...LOL
