What's on your Menu today (Photo Friday!) RNYers?

Tattooing isn't for everyone but honestly it can be a very cathartic and beautiful experience. I hope you keep considering it and maybe go for it! I love mine so I think we all need them. ~E

You look amazing! What a transformation!

You look like a different person! Amazing!

Morning Daisy and Menu Peeps!

My weekend will be... just me! No one is back at my house yet, and while I still have plenty to do, when I go to sleep and when I wake up in the morning... it'll just be me!

Daisy, I love seeing your before and afters! You are a beautiful woman with a great smile, both before and after, but your after pics really have you shining like a bright star! Such a great job!!!

Accountability: I ended up eating ham and cheese and some cottage cheese for dinner. I melted the cheese and let it get a little crispy around the edges, then heated up the ham and used that cheese and kind of a taco shell... I eat weird when it's just me. I also had a nice big iced coffee! It was good! Oh, and TWO of those sugar free dark chocolate turtles... see? That's why I can't have snacks around... I eat them all! Ugh. But, I'm OK, and there are 3 more left. No doubt they will be gone before the weekend ends.

QOTD:OH has given me... SO MUCH! The reason I first stayed around here was becuase of the knowledge of a low carb diet... I already knew so much about it, and to have found people that supported it for a long term way of eating post WLS, I knew I was in the right place. Now I am here for the friendships, both virtually and in real life that I've made! I like to hear from the Vets that have been around here forever, there's so much I've learned through their experiences!

Weight this morning 138.6 - mostly a maintenance diet, over 1 year out!

B: I am really considering slpurging and going down to get an omelette... actually I already know I am! Right after I finish my decaf coffee!

L: I have a rib left, and I have frozen stuff in there too

D: Dinner at Shoguns (Japanese steak house) for a friend's birthday. I'll just order with no rice and I'll probably get the upgraded steak!

S: Not sure if I will need one after that dinner!

Before picture was actually me about 20 pounds lighter than my heaviest (240 in this pic), but it really hit home when I saw this, and while I already knew I was going down the path to WLS, this girl's weekend really nailed it for me. My After pic was taken when I was in Austin 2 weeks ago with a friend I hadn't seen in over 10 years!

Just amazing! I will say that I see the same smile and happiness in both but there seems a different glow in the after.

You look absolutely stunning, Pammieanne!

Gorgeous!!

Wow! Beautiful before and after, but what a difference.

You are amazing! Beautiful in both pictures, and super glowing in the second one. You have done so well!

Last time I saw you I really didn't think you had any more weight to lose. Wow...I can see a big difference and it was only a few weeks ago really. That is crazy. I am so happy that your smile is so joyful! Miss you lots.
