What's on your Thursday menu RNYers?
Gallstones are the worst! So grateful my surgeon did the removal surgery ASAP. Much better since. Hope you feel better soon.

Good morning! I am having a crappy weight week. I haven't lost anything since Monday, which is annoying since I'm so early out. I know it's normal, but still sucks. The most exotic place I have been is Haiti, hopefully in December Hawaii will get added to that, as we are planning to go there for our 20th anniversary! Woot Woot!
B- premier protein shake
L- refried beans with cheese
S- cottage cheese
D-scrambled egg (wish me luck, will be my first egg)
S- 1/2 triple zero yogurt

Keep working it and you will come through. I stalled for weeks and now I've lost 4 pounds in 6 days doing nothing different. Go figure. You are rocking this!

Thanks for starting, D!
Have I told you all lately how lucky I am to have the world's sweetest boyfriend? Really. I'm just so lucky...
In other news, yesterday was just stressful all around, and I chose to "eat my feelings" at an afternoon meeting. Stupid, stupid, stupid. I ate (I'm not kidding...) a handful of BBQ potato chips, two mini twix, 3 chocolate covered pretzels, 3 peanut butter filled pretzels and 2 sour gummy worms. WTF is wrong with me!?! On to better choices today...
QOTD: I've traveled a fair amount. Not sure what to say is the most "exotic"--the trick is just that wherever you go, get out of the touristy spots and see how the loals live!
B: Fit Frappe Mocha and bacon
S: Roast beef and muenster cheese roll ups
L: Turkey and Brie with low sugar dried cranberries
S: Mixed Berry Greek yogurt
D: Leftover ribeye (I cooked it myself last night and it was pretty okay!)

I can totally relate to the eating! I ended up eating a small piece of pizza with my dinner last night at my sons meeting. I had brought my own dinner because I knew there was going to be pizza and I wanted to avoid it. I ended up skipping my evening snack because of it, but I'm pissed because I wasn't hungry and the pizza wasn't even that good. Actually, the pizza was kinda crappy.

Yeah, I think calories-wise I was about even from what I planned on, but only because I replaced the healthy snacks with ****ty ones. I basically didn't eat any protein or drink anything all day. Brilliant, JB.

Don't you hate that? You eat something unplanned and it is not even good....
