What's on your Menu today (Photo Friday) RNYers?
Good morning menu buddies!
I made it through all my pre-op stuff yesterday and met with anesthesiology and everything is ready to go for Wednesday. Last night my son was feeling a bit off and this morning I'm feeling a little queasy...but he's just right as rain so it could be that I'm just a ball of nerves at this point because I'm worried that I'll end up having to reschedule yet again and I really really reallllllly don't want to have to wait yet again. My doc was really happy with the progress I've made since I first came to see her in April 2016, I'm down 39lbs total and I even managed to lose 2 of those after I had my band removed and was able to eat anything and everything. I'm really freakin' proud of that!
Accountability: I stuck to my plan yesterday except for the eggs and cheese for dinner, I ended up having those eggs hardboiled for a snack and for dinner we ordered chinese food and I had moo goo gai pan without any rice...so basically chicken and vegetables. I thanked my hubby for helping me resist the pizza I do dearly wanted 
Photo Friday:
(1) - Our water playdate before we knew the creeping crud was lurking nearby - it was 90+ degrees out and the boys had so much fun with the hose and the water canons we brought.
(2) Sleepy munchkin last night after he started feeling icky, he fell asleep in his room and then around 11:30pm showed up in our room with his trash can declaring he wanted to sleep in there. I found it funny that he was awake enough to remember the can! 
(3) Lastly - I have a love/hate relationship with this picture - mostly because I dislike pictures of myself, but I love that it shows how strong I am. I'm squatting the same amount as my normy husband - and when I started out I could barely squat the bar alone. 
Menu today:
B: Yogurt
S: Protein Shake
L: Leftover chicken/veggies
S: TBD
D: Deli meat/cheese
Have a great day everyone!

Daisy, those roses are beautiful! White roses are my favorite!!! Birthday? Did I see that you're having a birthday soon? Happy early birthday!
I think last night I had my total and complete break down over all the stress at work... I yelled at hubs for stupid things, cried, stomped my feet, and drank wine! I was in bed by 830 (and sweet husband, even though I went off the rails showed up with some 'relaxation' lotion and rubbed my back! Kudos to him), and asleep by 8:32. I need this vacation, and today my give a damn about this job has already left the building 
Aside from the wine, I ended up eating the leftover chicken from Popeyes, but the crusty part wasn't good, so I skipped that. I never did eat lunch yesterday, and had 2 cheese sticks instead. I'm not updating MFP, don't have the fortitude to... but vacation is starting, so I'll get back to it when we return home.
Did have a nice surprise on my 13th surgiversary month this morning, and new low weight of 137.2 appeared (probably dehydrated from the wine, but I'm taking it anyway, damnit!)
B: breakfast burrito from our deli downstairs, but only a couple of bites of the wrap they use, and only 1/2 of it
L: Who knows
D: making burgers on the grill
My menu is skimpy, almost like the 2 piece bathing suit I bought to wear in Cancun... What was I thinking??! I'm kinda stressing over my deflated belly being shown, but I've been using a tanning lotion on it so it doesn't shine too brightly compared to the rest of me
My pictures today... one from 1987... my mom posted it on FB yesterday, and when I saw it I realized that I am probably thinner today than I was at 22yo. (and I thought I was still thin then! LOL)

'Relaxation lotion'? Is that what the kids are calling it these days? :)
I am so happy that you are taking this trip. It is going to be great memories and a wonderful reset from work stress.
You look really amazing! So healthy and vibrant!! See you soon.
