What's On Your Tuesday Menu, RNYers?

Countdown to surgery- 6 days to go! Yesterday was hard, hard, hard. But I survived. Being hungry puts me in an embarrassingly bad mood. 

Favorite season...it used to be fall. I still love fall. But I, have to say I love spring even more now. For one thing,,,kids. I have five, four still quite young, and winter hurts, lol. I love finally being able to send them outside more, I love not having to mess with coats and such, I love switching from hunting up socks and sneakers to velcro sandals...it's all in the little things. :) 

Breakfast- 1 mug of coffee with a sploosh of whole milk, 1 Caramel latte Celebrate shake

Lunch- 1 vanilla bean Celebrate shake

Snack- triple zero banana yogurt

Dinner- Atkins Beef Merlot frozen dinner, green salad with fat free Italian dressing

Snack- 2 sugar free popsicles

Calories- 1,017

Carbs- 76

Fat- 31

Protein- 105

SERIOUSLY!!  Let's take 30 minutes to get all the little ones geared up to go play in the snow.  Then they are back in within 10 minutes because they are cold, or need to pee etc etc etc SO MUCH WORK!!

Felt cravings yesterday, but added 1.25oz beef jerky pkg that satisfied the Want of damn popcorn. Scale down 1.4 this morning, but probably just the miralax - lol.

QOTD: Favorite season is Fall. Same great cooler weather as Spring, but feels like less work doing the clean-up of flower pots and ground plantings than the spring work of getting them ready. But you can still get great color from mum pots & pumpkins, etc -- Voila!  You East Coasters know how to decorate with all the mums, pumpkins, hay bales! Might need a fall décor Photo Friday sometime.

B - 2 coffees - used half a vanilla premier protein;  turkey breast

S - HB egg

L - roast beef slices & cheese stick

Hi menu gang, 

I'm up early to go to the laundromat before it gets busy. I didn't have my McDonald's eggmcmuffin that I usually get just coffee.

I did okay yesterday.  I did have some cravings for sweets but didn't cave in. Just had more coffee with truvia and fairlife milk. I stayed fuller longer.

QOTD I love summer.  I like wearing tank tops and shorts.

B hamburger patty

L tuna salad

D chicken

S light and fit Greek yogurt,  Turkey sausage snack stick and horseradish cheddar cheese

E probably walk later

Have a good day.

Good Morning! I wi**** was 48 here, it's still going to be 100 here today but luckily the air quality is improving. Over the weekend when I left the gym on Saturday morning there was ash on my car (looked like dandruff or something). We have wildfires on both sides of us and since we are in a valley it just kinda sits here.

QOTD: Without a doubt FALL followed by early Spring.

Time since surgery: 24 months

B: SF latte, egg beaters and one turkey sausage patty

L: Bananas and cream protein shake with powdered PB2 with chocolate

S: SF latte, Toasted vanilla coconut L&F Greek yogurt, pork rinds and pepperoni stick

D: Sweet and spicy tuna packet, baby carrots, a boiled egg and a wonton wrapper apple roll-up

E: 6 miles this morning and elliptical at lunch

V/W: On track

Totals: Cals:1161 Protein:141 Carbs:75 Fat:29

Have a great one!

We're having issues with the fires too.  The one in Santa Barbara county (I think) and then San Bernardino.  We're pretty far from both, but if the wind is right, we get the bad air and ash

I love summer. I have always. I will stay up as late as I can to make it last longer. That is my inner child talking. I do like all of the seasons. I just wish life would slow down a bit.

I didn't walk this morning. I am going to do it this afternoon when I get back from my mothers. I haven't seen her in a while. I did feel guilty a bit. But my sobriety was the most important thing going on at the time. I needed to work on myself.

I am taking her shopping which will be fun. And interesting at the same time. 

B:Coffee/Quest protein bar

L: Not sure

D:Steak or some type of protein

S:Quest bar while driving 

I had a great NSV last night. Our weekly meeting had an ice cream social after it. I helped but I didn't eat any. That was a milestone. So many people just don't get that I am a food addict. They don't realize that it can screw up your life like any other addiction. 

It is a beautiful day. I popped the top to my jeep so it is going to be a good day

QOTD: Spring! The weather gets a little bit better every day, there's a little more light, every day. And baseball season starts!

Fall is the best time for sports, College football, HOCKEY STARTS! and you get the World Series . . .  heaven.

QOTD- favorite season: fall/spring. Time since surgery: 15 months

M1: lunch meat roll up/grapes

M2: Chicken sausage & sauce

M3: baked Chicken Parmesan, no noodles
