What's on your WEDNESDAY menu RNYers?

I'm making myself get accountable again! No matter how busy, if I'm in the office I'm going to really try to post! Thanks for noticing

Hi Pammie ! Glad to see you on here, I did not realize you were from PA? We were neighbors! wish you were still there so we could meet! Keep knocking off the pounds, it will come off , follow your plan and continue your diligence.

I was just outside of Pittsburgh... had we stayed there, I'm sure that by now you and our other halves would definitely be meeting up on the regular!

Beef and barley - with steak none the less - sounds scrumptious! I haven't had barley in years, but I used to love it!

Yes - we are happy, fun loving people, I have no doubt we would have a blast!

Good Morning! Toot your horn girl-you deserve it! Now share some of the awesomeness this way pretty please! Your weather is crazy! We might get some rain tomorrow with highs around 70 so I just can't even imagine.

Accountability: The snack monster attacked last night and I am not happy about it. I will make tonight better.

Have a great one!

I love the stair climber, I use it religiously at the gym. I chuckle quite often as I see many folks get on and not realize what a workout it is going to be. There is nothing that makes me sweat like the stair climber and it prepares me for Hiking season. You are a cardio rock star Kelly!

My body just can't handle running everyday so it's nice to get the stair climber workout in on my non-run days. Thank you-I do love my cardio.

To be fair, I cannot imagine a "fog day", LOL.

YAY JB for jumping on here early and posting, thanks! Congrats on being a rockstar yesterday with your menu & steps while fighting a cold! WIN!

I can believe this weather as your town and where I live have the exact same weather (I have your town as in my weather app) so yes I know exactly what you are going through! I love winter and love snow but this windchill has got to go already!!!!

QOTD: We didn't get a lot of snow days as a kid, we had a crap ton of snow but it was just expected that you went to school, so I don't actually have "snow day" memories. I personally think the amount of snow days kids get nowadays is just ridiculous. Growing up in the 70s and 80s we got a massive amount of snow, now if there is a sprinkle on the roads they are closing schools, SMH.

I am jealous of your Chomps meat stick, I love those and they are not available in Canada!!

I am thinking of treating myself to a Starbucks Caramel Macchiato today. I got a ton of Starbucks gift cards from co workers for Xmas and a Grande Caramel Macchiato made with Lactose milk here in Canada is around $7 so these gift cards come in handy!
