What's on your Menu (Monday) today RNYers?

Hoping for good medical news for you and your new family!

Sorry to hear about Father in law to be.  Praying its not cancerous and can be repaired easily. 

Right there with you Anny, Mother Nature is just being a wacko right now, I am not feeling it.

Oh I am so sorry about your FIL. I will send prayers and good healing vibes that the worst is behind him.  If you need us please don't hesitate to "lean" on us, we are here for you and your extended family.

Since I love your pretty head I decline your lobotomy but I will say that you have A LOT going on right now in your life.  One being a major life event (your wedding) and now with your FIL sick you now have that added stress of your new extended family to worry and care about too.  And your building bids not cooperating, its a lot Anny.  Don't beat yourself up okay.  It WILL all work out.  I know you have an awesome support system so if you haven't make sure you talk to someone about all this stress and don't forget to turn to what you love to help with the stress, spend time with your nieces, knit something, or if you can exercise, even if you go for a walk around your new subdivision and look at the Fall colours.  You got this.  I am here if you need to vent/cry/yell/talk 

I think you menu is great, and I totally want you to share with me your dinner, I love Indian food!

Hang in there 

I'm sorry to hear this. Hope he is comfortable.

I am so sorry about your future father-in-law.  Fingers crossed that the news from pathology is good.  Take care of yourself and your fella!

Good Morning! Daisy hope the cold goes away sooner than later. Tell Arun I am thinking of him and rooting for the Blue Jays to win tonight!

QOTD: Girlfriend that is THE question of the day for me... I am in a mental battleground...because that is where it starts right? Chilifest on Saturday so scale up Sunday and today to my scary number....boo. Cold weather has set in and comfort food and night time snacking is kicking my butt. When I would write my menu here...it was always about having a plan so I didn't get caught off guard.But I never had a problem with changing it as needed. Now I change it- or snack unplanned or something and I seem to totally derail. I am not satisfied unless I feel full- and we all know that is not required. Last night a go through the kitchen happened freezer and 'snacks' into a garbage bag... I am obviously not in a good place.... feel bad throwing things out... and some of them are my low carb tries from Netrition. But I can't buy carb substitutes. I even tossed some of my beloved Somersaults. I won't eat them daily or weekly or even monthly, but when I open the bag of 4 servings 2-3 servings happen...not one. Better in the garbage can than making myself a disposal. I changed a medication I was on about 2ish months ago and was realizing some of what I have been feeling may be from that change. (hormones) I had been thinking some of the symptoms I was having were just from the trauma of my extended surgery recovery..Realizing that may not be the case. .So I am going to call the Docs office today.

My son and family arrive tomorrow for a wedding we have Sunday.   So it is a little scary not to be in a good place with the scale and food and not feeling strong... as different foods always happen when they are here... bagels, pizza...me cooking a lot. Plus a wedding and it is harder to say no further out... just saying. So keep me in your prayers, good thoughts, swing a chicken for me... I want to stay focused in the right places all around this week.

1: Pumpkin Protein Shake, coffee latte with fairlife milk and miralax

2: Chicken vegetable soup

3: Cod, veggie

Snacks: Greek yogurt, Chocolate chai latte

Ex: 21-day-fix

Praying things become easier and less stressful and tempting.  

Thank You!

I for sure will tell Arun you send lots of baseball love!  He will love that!

I figured some of us would find this QOTD to hit a nerve (so to speak).  Comfort food and night snacking are the worst. 

You are a lot like me, if its not in the house then I can't eat it (hence your throwing out frenzy).  I hope you get your hormone meds sorted out, that will for sure mess with you!

I am so excited John & Emily and the kids are coming!  YAY that is something to so look forward too!  And a wedding too, I love weddings! But know that it won't be forever the "off plan" eating, they are only here a week, a wedding only lasts a day and you can get back to your way of eating and what you are comfortable with soon.  You can do this, I have total confidence in you!
