What's on your menu today (Photo Friday) RNYers? Day 5 of AMAW/CAMW!
When you have been Morbidly Obese a goal number is like a mythical unicorn... so unknown. Reality is the smaller you are the harder it gets to lose.... doesn't mean it can't happen.
When I was 30lbs above where I am now, I said I'd take it 5lbs at a time...because *****ally knew??... and of course I've talked about how Body fat testing really helped me, and PS consults because what I thought was a hefty 30+lbs still to lose was just skin...

You know... I'm 51, and I really expected my skin to be much worse than what it is now... and part of that realization leads me to believe that there's plenty more on my bones to lose! How screwed up is that? Like, will I not be happy until I look like a dried raisin that's been rehydrated??! (Because I resigned myself to loose/saggy skin before I started this because of my age)
I feel like I still have a good streak going with my monthly losses, and that also makes me think I'll be going below that magical number... but I am interested in the Body Density tests... I need to do some research and see where I can have that done locally. Thanks for reminding me!!!

Awww, I know that's got to be hard for you and the family but necessary. I think I take it harder than my kids. We had quail and it bothered me a little when we ate them but NOT the kids! Even my daughter jokes about it. She was probably 4 when she first realized that we actually eat animals when the boys hunted a rabbit and we all ate it. She said she could feel it hipping in her belly LOL. She can talk to animals, name them, but tell them I'm going to eat you .
Happy Friday!!! DD2 I am proud of you and I think you rocked the hell out of meat week!!! You did a fantastic job at being the MC and I am grateful to have you and the other vets on here. You all are such an inspiration for the newbies! NONE of us could do this without all of you!
QOTD: What I like most about meat week is that it is easy. I pretty much eat like that already being so new post-op but with the exception of a bite or 2 of veggies. It's easy for me because I don't have to wonder what I'm going to eat or snack on. The answer is simple...meat!!! It keeps me from thinking oh a bite of this or a bite of that is ok. The only reason I chose CAMAW is for the cream in my coffee. I didn't extend it out to all dairy like cheese and yogurt. In my mind that is still letting me branch out too much...keep it simple.
Too bad we all don't live closer together. I would get my husband to smoke this bad boy up for a meaty celebration for us!! It's a pig stuffed in a lamb, stuffed in a cow!
B - 3 strips of succulent cajun bacon
L - Meatloaf
S - rotisserie chicken
