What's on your menu today (Friday) RNYers?

Ok starting out- hopefully we aren't posting all at the same time. Looks like I'm winner winner chicken dinner on this one. scale rewarded me with a .8 loss this morning for an all time low of 128. My next goal is 125. Had an icky pouch day yesterday, I ate because I needed to not for want.

QOTD-? What is your favorite gift you are giving out this year? Mine is to my mom, my middle sister an I went together to get her the 23andeme DNA testing for Christmas. My mom's family has books written about it and are distantly related to Henry VIII's wife (Anne of Cleaves, one he didn't behead). He actually divorced/annulled her so yay for that. Their name is Funderburke (VON DER BERG) and there is even a castle Berg north of Frankfurt that she and I have toured and been to. So I can't wait to see what the DNA says when it comes back.

Is everyone ready for Christmas/Holiday? I'm only 1/2 day today, running to my 1 YEAR surgery appt this afternoon. Very excited, then running to Aldi to do some shopping (their veg are cheaper than kroger and other places) and I'm buying a DUCK to cook not for christmas but for after. Also need to make 2 chocolate pecan pies for my sisters tomm. I will also be making those huge choc chip cookies that are the copycat recipe from levain bakery in NYC.

Exercise is day 16 of 30 days of yoga. Really enjoying it and it's free to top it all off!

Yesterday I ate:

protein pancakes/coffee/fish/ground turkey leftover/brussels sprouts/greek yogurt- under calories and massive amounts of protein.

Today will be:

protein pancakes/leftover ham/maybe a protein bar. depend how I'm feeling plus I will be out and about.

Good Morning! I am the worlds worst give giver! I love to give gifts but when it comes to picking out gifts I just draw a blank. So when it comes time to open, I never know how well I did. I did get my husband some ice fishing things and any time I can think of idea's for him that are more for enjoyment instead of just 'handy' I always feel good. So guess that would be my best gift this year.

B: coffee

L: left over taco's from dinner

D: chicken breast and cottage cheese with pineapples

Haha thanks for kicking us off! I kept saying, I'll wait 5 more minutes in case someone else is writing!

qotd: my husband is hard to buy for. It's a struggle every year. He's one of those people, who if they want something, they just get it. So I managed to find a few things he'll be excited about, that alone makes it a win haha. Onethat will  sound boring, but it's these fancy pruners for the garden. they are the ones where you snip, what's cut off stays attached. For example for roses, and his case, grapes. 

Menu:

B: protein shake and too many decaf coffees with baileys creamer. I don't put a ton in, but the carbs are adding up, so it's gotta go...

L and D: tbd because we are heading to the farm. 

Have a great day everyone!

yes, creamer is the devil even the sugar free ones. have you tried making your own? I usually do 1/4 cup lo carb milk or almont/cashew milk (unsweetened) and then add SF torani and such to make it sweet. Saves a tON of calories. Sometimes I add prot powder also

It so is. I haven't tried my own, but I think I will. Until the baileys creamer entered my life, I just put a big teaspoon of 5% cream and a bit of stevia. I think I'll go cold turkey for a bit, then try a diy one. Thanks!

good morning and congrats on the weight supershopper!!!!!

I guess it would be the birthstone ring and earrings I got my daughter, she has never been much of a jewelry wearer, but in recent years she has started to and has mentioned that someday she would like to get herself her birthstone, so that's what we did this year.

Happy Christmas Eve Eve.....

Huge victory for me today I hit ONDERLAND and  101 pounds lost since surgery!!!!  I can not remember stepping on the scale and having the number start with a 1!  I only got on and off the scale 5 or 6 times to make sure I was reading it right....

QOTD:  That is a toss up... this has been a rough year for my family with the loss of my mom.  My family has always been Boston Celtics fans and were never able to take my parent to a game before but on Cyber Monday we got an email about a great deal on tickets so my husband and I got my dad tickets so we are very excited to take him to the TD Garden for the first time.  The other gift I am excited about is for our daughter ever since she has been about 7 or 8 we have given her concert tickets one summer we did 8 Jonas Brothers Concerts (yes I am that mom).  This year we got her great seats at The Kennedy Center in DC to see Alan *******s she is a huge fan of his so hopefully she will love that...

My food plan today is so up in the air my daughter gets her wisdom teeth out this morning so other than breakfast of decaf coffee, cereal, and milk that is all I know about food for the day....

Have a great day menu friends....

CONGRATULATIONS on Onderland and 101 pounds lost!!!  Awesome!  Way to go!

Wow that's awesome! Congratulations!!

O Nederland! What a great way to start off your day. Such huge milestones. Congratulations!
