What's on your menu today (Wednesday) RNYers? Day 3 of AMAW/CAMAW!
Dude are you serious! 2.2 down already! OMG so proud of you! I knew you could do this! Look out people, Duffman is back!
Great job Mike, that is really awesome. I am so glad you are back on the "program" and back here with your "crew"
Yay for recycling, and how smart is the zero sort program, Nice!!!
Great menu my friend, keep up the awesome work, Looking forward to seeing your menu tomorrow!
Good morning from Vegas! No pics yet. I was way too tired to explore last night, and I woke up BEFORE THE STARBUCKS OPENS. There is not even a coffee pot in the room so I'm literally just lying here unable to move... I know I could actually get dressed and find another coffee shop but I'm too tired. I'll be in line at 6am when the Starbucks in the lobby opens ;)
Oh and this mystery conference that I'm going to? No one at the hotel knew anything about it. Couldn't tell me where it's happening or anything. I'm not getting high hopes for the quality. I'm also basically giving up the hope that they'll be Food.
I'm still toting around my meat sticks and protein bars, though, so I can make it through until it's over and can find something decent to eat tonight.
QOTD: Grim forgot to mention that we went to IKEA about 12 times in a week to buy the perfect cabinet to house the recycle bins. We ended up building a huge tower of shelves, which are awesome...but don't actually fit the bins like we thought they would! So now the bins live in the kitchen where it's easier to get to them, anyway. Lol.

You've described my nightmare -- a Starbucks so close ... and yet ... SO FAR AWAY.
I have recently run into that problem when we travel... especially at 3+ and 4 star hotels. Many of them have incorporated a Starbucks/Peets/Seattle's Best in their lobby -- which seems wonderful. What sucks is that they've removed the coffee from the room -- or have absolutely dismal coffee there. We stay in so many hotels in the summer driving from Ohio to Oregon and back, that I've taken to bringing my Yeti thermos and getting it filled before I go to sleep for that very reason.
Just know that I am thoroughly commiserating with your coffee pain!

When I stayed in PA with my son and family a 2 weeks ago... It was heaven...there was a 24 hour Sheetz gas station/convenience store across the parking lot. Pajamas, uggs and long coat.... had my yeti-like cup with me that they only charged like $.85 to refill with 24oz... Sheetz classic house brew is the best...

I can't wrap my head around Starbucks in VEGAS being closed. Helloooooo is Vegas not the "city that never sleeps" well people need coffee to stay awake! Makes no sense. Shame shame on you SB!! Write them a letter JB! LOL And it must have been the damn clowns screwed up and didn't put a coffee maker in your room, that's just wrong!
So funny on you & Grim and the 12 trips to Ikea for the perfect bins and now they live in the kitchen. ha ha ha
Have fun at the conf, and I hope you get your coffee fix tomorrow morning!
Good morning. Yesterday I was a bottomless pit, luckily I managed to only eat protein dense foods. My protin was at 151 g yesterday. I'm not sure I have ever been that high. Bonus: I'm down a pound today. I have lot more work to do but I'm happy with day one. I'm going to focus on feeding my hunger rather than calories for a few days and see if I can kick these sugar cravings.
QOTD: We recycle plastics, metals and cardboard. We also keep expired drugs separate.
Time since surgery: 2 1/2 years
B: Skinny latte and breakfast sausage
S: Fitjoy Peppermint Bark Bar
L: Grabbing something at Target
S: String cheese
D: Pork chops (they hadn't thawed completely last night so we had ham & eggs)
W/V: Started
E: Likely a P90X video (I need to run to Target at lunch and the hospital to visit fam after work so this will be late night)
Have a great day all!
