What's on your Saturday Menu, RNYers?

The head games are real. I am putting trail mix and protein bars on my no-no list for the time being as they have been a recent weakness for me. Hang in there!

Yes I seem to be eating protein bars way more frequently and protein shakes much less as my 'convenience' foods. There is also this healthy food place here called Pro-portion and they have that "Only 8" frozen yogurt that is only 8 calories an ounce...but then toppings and you know lots of ounces can slide right in. That has been happening way too frequently.

I wish I had a relaxing weekend! Our church (meaning my husband and I,) are running a food booth at the local 4th celebration.  I was up there til 11 last night and the last thing I wanted to do 2 as get up at 6 and walk. But I did so Lily and I have our 3.2 miles done already. That's it for today as I will be standing on my feet from 10 til probably 11 pm tonight. Post op 46 months and weight at 118 today. Here's the eats B 1/2 c steel cut oats with protein and peanut butter added LP3 packet D ground beef patty with cheese S mission 1 cookies and cream protein bar.  Have a great day everyone and make some good choices!

Morning JB!

I'm glad the weekend is here. I need a break. I should end the week with 110,000 steps or so. I just looked at the Fitbit dashboard, and in another 2 weeks I'll pass the 13 million step mark. I wish I had a nickel for every step . . .

I'm waiting for my sweetie to get here! We're walking to the fair today, and hopefully will meet Shauna later! And a ballgame in Lowell tomorrow night. Weather has been perfect.

Who could ask for more?

Grim, I'm super jealous of your 110,000 steps. I'm trying to exercise but I can't walk because my dang knees and hips hurt too much. I tried water aerobics and even that amount of impact hurts my joints. So what to do? I talked to a personal trainer friend and she recommended that I join the gym just to do the weights to strengthen the muscles around my knees and hips. I'm leaning in that direction.

So jealous of your meet up!

Have fun on all your outings! Catch a foul ball for me!

Hi everyone,

I'm in a stall and am frustrated. I'm almost seven weeks out and I stalled at two weeks and now the scale hasn't moved in a week again. Hmmph. Nothing I can do but wait it out. 

I'm with NYmom. Stirrup pants were the worst. I may have rocked some 80s looks when I was 16, but would just look silly now.

I am on my way to pick up my co-op basket. I ordered tons of fruit this time. My three teenagers requested more fruits and vegetables and less chips and cookies. I don't even go to those aisles anymore. You go, girls!

I can't even think about my menu right now. Too grouchy about my stall. I will plan and log later.

When I was a kid I was totally oblivious to fashion trends - couldn't have told you one to save my life! I do remember wearing stirrup pants when I was 12 though...I liked them lol I like the variety of fashion now - you can follow or create any trend you like.

B - Clementine and a piece of aged cheese

Sn - Milk

L - 1 Taco with cheese, ground beef, salsa, sour cream and lettuce

Sn - Cupcake, I'm really looking forward to this treat!

D - Chicken thigh and veggies

Ex - 45 minute walk 

I know your frustration. I had a stall at 3 weeks that lasted for 3 weeks and now the scale is moving soooo slow....like 1 lb. a week if that! I have really bad knees and feet so if I walk long distances, I won't be walking period; so, I purchased an AeroPilates machine with a rebounder for my cardio and I love it. Much easier on my very bad joints!  (Scale is still not cooperating though!)  I still hope that at some point I can do other cardio exercises like bike riding and hiking...all in time I pray.
