What's on your Menu Today (Tuesday) RNYers?
Thanks PaperCuts for prayers and support! 
Your NSV had me laughing out loud, I am picturing this small lady in this big work truck and climbing all over the place, while that would have been hilarious to see what an fantastic NSV! Glad you finally got out of the truck! Keep those NSVs coming!
Great menu!
HUGS. So sorry to hear about your mom.. That sucks. Cancer sucks.

Sorry to hear that Daisy. I'm more of a lurker than a regular poster, but I always enjoy your sunny posts in the morning. I've dealt with 2 parents being very sick recently (well, one was in a bad car accident) and so your post really struck home with me. It is so hard when things happen that are out of our control. Please take care of yourself and take things one day at a time.
NSV: I went to my 3 month post-op appointment this morning. I have this entire journey been afraid that I haven't been doing things 100% correct, that I wouldn't lose much weight, etc. I found out I've lost 40% of my excess weight in the 3 months, above the 33% that they hope their patients will achieve. I've lost 12 inches off my waist and 10 inches off my hips. My nurse (hilariously) said, "You've got a nice little waist under there!" like she was finding a Easter Egg or something. Nonetheless, it made me smile.
B: premier shake
S: high protein hot chocolate
L: deli meat, babybell cheese
D: tuna? chicken?
S: cottage cheese
Take care!
Thank you MNmamma for your kind words & support! Thank you for taking the time today to post, I know how hard it is to be lurker and not a poster LOL, I am glad you enjoy my daily ramblings. ha ha So sorry to hear your sick parents & the car accident, hope they are both better now and fully healed!
Love your NSV, that is wonderful news! 12" and 10" is some serious weight loss!!! You must have been giddy when she noticed your "nice little waist under there" that is really a moral booster and just wonderful to hear. Keep up the great work!
Great menu!
I'm so sorry to hear about your mom - although in many cases, they're able to get rid of the cancer, so I'll keep my fingers crossed for her. I do know several breast cancer survivors, so there's hope. I know having critically ill family members is really tough, though. Been going through that a lot myself lately. It's absolutely heartbreaking.
QOTD: no NSV's, really, but last night I was at a meeting of our newly-formed neighborhood association (I'm one of the reps for our "district"), and I realized none of these other board members ever knew me as fat. It's been awhile since I've been MO, but it still shocks me when I realize some group or person never knew me as fat.
20 months out
B: homemade Greek yogurt, berries
S: coffee with half & half, double NSA protein/Miralax snickerdoodle shake
L: cottage cheese
D: long day today with no good breaks (teaching two classes and then at the reference desk from 4-8), so probably just a protein bar :-(
maybe a L&F Greek yogurt when I get home if I'm hungry and can afford the calories

Thank you Trish for your kind words and support!
I know you are totally appreciate where I am coming from in dealing with sick parents, UGH its so hard. Hugs to you!! 
Funny you should mention this, whenever someone new starts in my department at work and they make comment like "well you are so tiny and blah blah blah" I often think to myself "I am not tiny, oh wait, you didn't know my 3 years ago!!"
