PHOTO Friday: This sums up my week. Still recovering and tired of it. This weekend I will be running to Dallas for a family thing but still won't be up to doing much. I can't drive yet despite my fierce negotiations with my foot doctor....she wouldn't budge no matter how I explained that I would only use my big toe so it wouldn't 'count.' Hope you all have wonderful holiday weekends!
Menu: Greek yogurt, Greek yogurt, Low Sugar Oatmeal packet, strawberries, and an apple...these are the things I stuck into my lunchbox in a rush out the door this morning so those will make up breakfast/lunch/snack for the day. Dinner is TBD because I will be going into Austin for a coffee social. I know for sure I will have coffee. :)

My heart goes out to you as I share recovery frustration. I realize yesterday was hump day for me, three weeks since my surgery, so three more weeks of wearing this brace 24/7. I think I may have to wear it two more weeks after that just at night. It's not easy but we will get to the other side! I also can't drive for another three weeks boo Hoo boo hoo

Good morning! TGI friggin' F! I have a four day weekend, yay!! Tomorrow, we are going out on the boat with my sister and BIL. Can't wait, we always have a blast with them! Sunday is beach day, Monday is chore day (I have a ton of stuff I want to get done around the house) and Tuesday is just relaxing, BBQ and fire works! I'm on an interview panel all day today, ugh. I have so much work to do that this is just an annoying waste of my time.
Yesterday I took my car in because I found a screw in my brand new tire - they couldn't fix it due to where it was, so it needed to be replace it. I found out I had road a hazard warranty and they replaced it for free! It would have cost me $180 -whew!
Accountability - my menu was shot yesterday. Switched lunch to beef jerky. BF got home so late last night that we didn't eat until 8, so meanwhile I had been scouring the kitchen and I ate: 2 little handfuls of slivered almonds, a couple tsp. of bagel spice out of the palm of my hand, a couple tsp. of dukkah spice out of the palm of my hand and 8 packets of taco bell mild sauce straight out of the little packet. I should have just eaten dinner earlier. I know, very weird, but I just wanted some flavor to get by....Ended up with a stomach ache probably from all the acid and salt. No more waiting.
ETA QOTD - I'm horrible at remembering names, it's embarrassing really.

b-coffee with heavy cream and splenda, HB egg
l- tuna w/ balsamic
d-eggs and bacon

Happy Friday! I did end up getting today off, so I'm on vacation mode. I think my posts for the next week will be quick because I plan on spending some good time with my baby girl (yes, I know she's 12 but she'll always be my baby girl!) and I don't want to be on my phone as much and won't always know our plans for the day.
QOTD: I usually try and repeat their name back to them when we are talking.
Menu for today: B: latte, eggbeaters, turkey sausage and 1/2 an orange, L: grilled steak and edamame, S: latte, yogurt, jerky, and Brazil nuts D: TBD
E: hour of elliptical
W/V: on track
Hope everyone has a great day!
