What's on your Thursday menu RNYers?

Good morning all!

I am loving this QOTD! What memories you all are bringing back! I had a silky/flowy top and skort ensemble with a "beautiful" delicate floral pattern that I wore with white tights and pink ballet slippers with bows. I wore it for every dress-up occasion until, like everything, it became too small. *sigh*.

Accountability: got in my protein requirement and did all my meals - transitioning to puréed stage.

today:

B: 1/4 cup mushed scrambled egg (heavenly)

S: 8 oz. strawberries and cream PP

L: 1/4 cup 1% cottage cheese, mushed

S: 8 oz strained cream of chicken soup + 1 scoop protein powder

D: 1/4 cup mushed scrambled egg

S: 8 oz. bananas and cream PP (trying to use it up - blech).

Have a great day!!

Good morning, Teena and menu family!

woke up super groggy today for some reason and I'm trying like crazy to kick the caffeine - pray for me lol! I took also a several day break from any exercise that actually makes me sweat and then finally decided to quit being lazy yesterday and did my Jillian Michaels DVD.. SOOO MANY LUNGES. My legs feel like jello today haha. No pain, no gain, right?

Accountability: skipped lunch but had a shake when I got home and then had a later dinner of pot roast meat and a couple veggies.

qotd: I used to have this minty/sea foam green dress with a hoop skirt that my mom bought me when I was 5 or 6. I wore that thing every chance I had hahaha.. we unearthed it from the crawl space several years ago and I almost barfed. It's waaaay 80's, ruffles, poofy sleeves and all haha

b- syntrax shake with rice milk (I usually do just plain water but felt like indulging, but I ran out of my coconut milk so I used DH's rice milk... Then I looked at the nutrition label to track it. OMG! 120 cal for a cup vs 45 for my coconut milk - no brainer! Next time I'll just stick to water. Daaaaannnng!!!)

l- Greek L&F or another shake (sans milk lol!)

D- chicken meatballs

s- laughing cow wedges and celery

V- patches

e- 60 min on treadmill and highest incline.

happy Thursday, crew! Make it a great one!

It's noon and I feel like I've already put a whole day in. Can I go home??

Qotd: I don't think I had a favorite outfit. I wore a school uniform until 5th grade and I was already overweight and we were poor so I always felt like I dressed like a middle-aged woman instead of a regular kid when I wasn't in the school uniform. In high school I wore a lot of jeans and oversized men's tshirts. I told myself I was going for a grunge rock look, but really I just didn't like most plus sized clothing options for female teens...because there really weren't any.

Breakfast: 2 scrambled eggs with crumbled bacon, cheese, and salsa

lunch: spinach salad with garden cherry tomatoes, red pepper, balsamic vinaigrette, and 3 oz salad shrimp

snack: Greek L&F

dinner: pork cheeks and probably yellow squash. That's the last of the yellow squash for the year :*(

Hello Everyone,

QOTD: I remember hating that I had to go to a special store to get my clothes and that I couldn't wear normal ones so no, I didn't have a favorite outfit that I recall.

Accountability: I had a HUGE craving for regular peanut butter and I gave in yesterday. I switched out other things for it so that it fit in my calories and macros but it was a head thing and I hate that. I ate way more than I should have..... like way more so dinner was very small (although I wasn't hungry the rest of the evening anyway) Every once in awhile I get a craving for peanut butter that is very strong. Once I eat it I'm fine for another couple of weeks but it seems kind of odd to me. I wasn't the biggest peanut butter fan before surgery. Oh well...onward!

B: lots of decaf, pp and sf torani

L: Volpi roll, london broil and string cheese

S: Decaf, half and half and splenda, string cheese, Volpi roll

D: Sirloin
