What's on your menu today (Thursday) RNYers?
This was me! I always thought the outfit I had on 'hid' all the fat... much to my dismay, there I would be... this HUGE person staring back at me in pictures...
Now I am so tickled when I see a photo of me that I really didn't know was being taken... where I can't really pose for it, and there I am, not looking all HUGE anymore!
I love this so much. And I pray I keep honest with myself and keep it off!

My mom gained a lot of weight in her late forties. While I was still in my thirties I gained a hundred pounds. I would see these pics and be all "Why is MOM stuffing the turkey at Christmas? That was MY job!" then realize that yeah... that huge butt was MY butt! Poor mom who didn't see us as the same size would be all offended that I mixed up our butts :)

Good morning Daisy and Menu crew, was a balmy 54 here this morning. I planted the garden last evening so i am surprised we did not get a frost this morning...LOL
QOTD - I would never be in photos or would always be in the back, i would not show up for work related photo ops, etc. I would never play Hockey and exercise as I do now, I wanted too do it but the weight would not allow me too. I would never have guessed that I would be off 6 medications ( including insulin). That is by far my biggest triumph, NO MEDS!
B - premier protein
S - Yogurt and buddig meat
L - Manwhich meat
S - Protein bar
D - Grilled Shrimp
E - Gym night
Stay Healthy my friends! Mike
Being off 6 meds is the ultimate NSV!!!

Good morning my Pretties and Handsome's! Happy June 1! So far today is a beautiful day... Day three of my commitment to post on here before I get to busy is working and I like this. Now next week will be a huge challenge for me as I am driving to a branch office to work and that office is two hours away.
QOTD: When I was at my highest weight I would never..." Well let me count the ways... I would never dare looking at clothes for me in a store, I would never wear a skirt or dress, I would never wear anything on my feet other than sneakers or Crocs, I would never sit in a booth at restaurant chairs all the way. I never wanted to go out after work or on weekends and do anything fun now I never want to stay home I always want to go out and do stuff.
Food for the day:
B: hard boiled egg white, 2 slices of bacon, grapes and decaf coffee
L: chicken salad made with Greek yogurt (I found this a BJ's Wholesale club) not sure I will like it so I will see!) and a piece of cheese
S: Sargento Balanced Break
D: Hamburgers on the Grill at my Brothers house we are going to his house to help put together a swing set for the nieces...
Have a happy Thursday's friends....
Since I forgot to post the QOTD on my post, I'm just adding my Yes To This on each post!
Dresses and skirts... YES YES YES!!!
I HATED wearing, and only owned dresses for specific functions. My legs rubbed together in such a way that it caused friction/sweat/rashes... etc. I just quit even looking at them.
It's been an honest struggle to start wearing them again... I feel so.... NEKKID!
And I still haven't bought a skirt... but I DO have about 4 dresses I have found at Goodwill, and I wear them now!

I wasn't able to take a walk in a bathing suit because the skin between my legs would get raw.
