What;s on your Menu today (Monday) RNYers?
on 1/30/17 8:54 am
My sister is the person that changes, substitutes and makes ridiculous requests, we all cringe when she orders. I truly don't believe she has ever just ordered something off the menu without a million questions or specific requests. She always asks them to hold something or to sample the sauces they use. We were out once and she wanted chicken wings but wasn't sure what sauce so she asked to try it first. I know that's not entirely unreasonable and the waitress had no problem bringing out a sample BUT 3 samples later and she decides she'd rather have the chicken club...with no tomato, mayo on the side... you get the idea.

Good morning, everyone! It was a nice weekend. We had some nice weather, and I got a lot of things done. House is clean, three pigs are clipped, DH and I helped my FIL change a radiator in his pickup, washed our pickup, and we fixed some plumbing in their camper, too! I'd say we got a lot of things accomplished.
QOTD: I will complain. I will compliment, as well. It just all depends on the lack of/level of service. I tip well for exceptional service.
Still at a stall at 204.

L: salad w/ chicken

Hi gang. Excuse the tardiness. Lots of bouncing around.
QOTD. I never complain, and I never fill out comment cards. My dad used to send food back if it wasn't cooked just right. I never have.
If I'm dissatisfied more than once, I just don't go back. If I'm happy, I tip well. There is one restaurant years ago where I did speak to the manager, and I have never gone back. And never will.

Good morning everyone!
Overall the weekend was pretty good, productive enough to feel like I accomplished something but with plenty of time to do what I wanted. Lately what I want is to obsess over logging steps on my Fitbit. My sister just got one and sent me a friend request which led me to exploring some of it's other features and I've spent the past few days doing a whole lot of walking.
After a couple weeks of good losses the scale barely moved this week so I'm really looking forward to that "the scale seems to lose the previous weeks losses all at once" thing too. Lol
QOTD I think I've become more vocal over the past few years but it depends on the situation and I always try to be tactful.
B- coffee w/sf hazelnut
L- leftover ribs (ribs are hands down my new favourite food)
D- cajun chicken
S- turkey bite, protein drink
Totals 567 cals, 74g protein, 1g carbs
Hope the week gets off to a good start for everyone!

Hello all,
I'm new here and I love support and accountability this site provides. I was sleeved November 2011 and although my current doctor would not speak against another doc, he did tell be that my sleeve was not only large but part of my fundus was not removed. I only had restriction for about 6 months, was always hungry and never reached goal. I am now only 20 days out from revision to RNY and I can already tell a vast difference.
QOTD: Yes, I always give management feedback...good and bad. As a business owner, I appreciate when clients let me know about a problem so I can fix it. Of course, its also nice to hear when we get it right.
Time since surgery: 20 days
