What's On Your Tuesday Menu, RNYers?

vacation and maintenance = great work

Good morning everyone. Happy for a day that is not Monday, lol.

Qotd: Funny you mention dreams. I had really weird ones this morning, so much so that the creepy feeling infected my walk this morning. I was feeling paranoid out walking in the dark. Anyway, the only thing I remember clearly from the dream was standing outside in the front yard of my childhood home washing my hair with a garden hose. Ok, that just seems funny, but y'all know how dreams make stuff creepy.

B noatmeal with premier protein, coffee with cream
L shrimp with sunflower salad
D egg fu yung
S light and fit yogurt, ten almonds, 1 oz cheese, veggies

Calories 808 Carbs 38 Protein 89

(I've started adding some vegetables to my late afternoon time before dinner when I want to raid the fridge. It's lots of low calorie fiber, and now that I'm getting plenty of protein in it is definitely a help.)

You've inspired me to try noatmeal. I can not stand oatmeal, but I always wanted to, so I've tried nearly every style! But this might be up my alley! 

Good morning! I remember most of my dreams and they are often very vivid and real. Unfortunatey, last night I spent most of my dream time "working". I literally composed and responded to work emails in my sleep. #stressedoutloser

But the good news is that I skipped the debates and crawled into bed super early. I am trying to sleep off this cold. I managed to get 9.5 hours and I already feel better :)

B: Protein coffee and an egg

S: Chobani "Coffee Bliss" yogurt

L: Roast Beef and Cheese Roll ups

S: Balanced breaks (cheese and nuts)

D: meeeeeaaaat !?!

Right!?!?! Why must we dream about work too....like they can't pay me for that time!! Glad you're feeling a little better.

Sometimes our bodies just need sleep!

Good Morning Everyone!

So glad you're back, Kristen!

QOTD:  I've had some dreams that were psychic before.  The last dream I can remember is pretty vague, but I think it was that I was going to have a baby, which is pretty weird considering I'm 60 years old!  I think maybe my subconscious kind of wishes I had had more kids, although I'm thrilled to pieces with my daughter that I do have.  Hopefully someday I will have grandbabies!

My menu for today:

Breakfast:  2 eggs, sunny side up, 3 strips bacon

Lunch:  lettuce salad w/ tomato, bacon, cheese and low cal dressing

Dinner:  Little smokies

Snack:  Watermelon

Snack:  Oiko's triple Zero greek yogurt

Snack:  Moon cheese

Snack:  sugar-free pudding with cool whip

Exercise:  Walking the dogs around the subdivision

Have a fantastic day everyone!

You are doing so well with 'real' food. Yay! I do have a question though .... You have been posting your lettuce salad for lunch for quite a few days. Ever put any dense protein on that? I know bacon and cheese Have protein but they are on the lower end... Maybe 10g total? Whereas 2oz chicken with some cheese would be more like 17-20g. 

 I know protein is hard for you, but you got to keep trying. :)

Thanks, Cynthia.  I had some chicken breasts in the freezer that I left in there too long and they got freezer burned.  Do you think they're still good or should I throw them out?  Would canned chicken work?  I'll try adding some canned chicken to my salad today.  Yes, my protein numbers could stand to be a little higher.  My hair is falling out and so I want to keep my protein levels high to avoid any more hair loss than I have to have.

Canned chicken works, too! I've eaten it plenty.
