What's on your Thursday menu RNYers?

I'm actually thinking of taking skating lessons. Just have to check the prices.

I misread your message and thought you said it was 'farty' today... lol

QOTD: NEVER been ice skating, really want to go. Maybe when we go to NYC next month- I'm just scared i will flip my ankle on the ice and not be able to walk!

Yesterday was work christmas party. I ate too much, although more 'on plan' items. It was a long lunch which makes it easier to overeat.

today will be lighter eating lots of water- we will be eating out lunch today due to house inspector coming out. wish us luck!!

Haha Hilary said farty!

haha!!! Thanks for sharing the chuckle!

You're definitely right about the long lunches making it easier to overeat...

Let us know how the inspection goes.

working remotely half the day and off the rest - YAY! Christmas shopping officially done as of last night when I finally figured out what to get my mom, and I ordered it online. Thank God that's done..

Weight finally below 148 this morning (147.4). Hope this continues!! I was so relieved to finally see a drop! Accountability was good yesterday except for the Christmas cookie I had at work - although I was able to offset the calories. I had a really hard time with the sugar in it, though. I do eat sweet things, but evidently they're smaller or the "sugar" is artificial sweetener. This was one of those bigger, bakery cookies. Not sure if I was having a major sugar buzz or it might have been RH, but not doing that again. A "Chips Ahoy" size cookie I can handle, but not that, evidently...(although this is probably a good thing).

yoga class in an hour, then meeting DH for coffee so we can both work. Then a couple of errands this afternoon, hair cut at 3:45. Should probably try to work on a couple of Christmas cards, too. It's supposed to snow later on today (1-2"), so I want to get everything done before that.

QOTD: I loved ice skating as a kid - both outdoor winter skating and indoor rink skating. I went almost every day and took lessons at one point. At age 10, my dream was to become an Olympic figure skater. However, after a bloody skating accident, my dreams were dashed. I think I maybe went twice after that (outdoor only). Now, I doubt I could stand up on them - and between my somewhat unstable right hip joint and my bad ankle, I wouldn't even try. :-(

2 years 6 months out:

B: homemade Greek yogurt with 1 T Crio Bru grounds mixed in and 1 T cherry preserves

Hello Teena and menu folks. I am heading into the New year with a new outlook, rather than let the negative bother me, I am going to ignore the negative and focus on the positive. Shopping is done, wrapping for the kids and everyone else is done, now I need to wrap all of the gifts for my Wife and I will be done.

QOTD - I was skating by the age of 3, I still enjoy it. I still play hockey once a week and I officiate youth games. Hockey has always been a part of my life, my youngest son is a senior and he will be done playing competitively after this season.

B - Protein bar

L- Baked Chicken roll - rolled with a pickle slice, slice of ham, slice of provolone and deli mustard.

S - Oikos triple 0 yogurt

D -Burger no bun

S - ???

Exercise - leaving early today and will be at the gym by 4

Sounds like a great way to start the year.

Not to mention I miss you Kelly!

We missed you too.
