I almost choked on my decaf when I read this, thinking of a bunch of women high fiving eachother over their husbands' vasectomies, lol. Thanks for the chuckle, and I hope all goes well for your hubby.

Good morning! It is 31 degrees Fahrenheit in southwest Florida. I am walking this morning but with my winter jacket and gloves.
QOTD: I drink 4-5 cups of coffee and 64+ ounces of crystal light lemonade daily. I don't track because I just make sure I drink those 2 large 32 ounce cups of crystal light so I know I've gotten that much in at minimum.
1 year, 10 months post-op
B: eggs, cottage cheese and Canadian bacon
L: Thai food (out to lunch with walking group)
D: Crab cakes and smashed cauliflower (Rachel Ray recipe - really tasty)
S: Halo Top ice cream

Good morning Daisy and Menu Makers! I am looking forward to the weekend. It was 20 this morning, more snow on the vehicles from overnight. I am not run down or tired , But my mood is impacted by the short days and this winter season has been so cold. One negative for working 1.5 miles from home, my car is always cold, I start my car, but not soon enough for it to be warm.
Accountability - Menu changes, Joddie came home with a Burrito from our favorite local mexican place and we shared it. I did not change my MFP but would think it wouuld be similar to the chili I was supposed to eat.
QOTD - Joddie and I had this conversation this morning. I weighed the same this morning and I feel it is because my last drink of water was at around 3 pm! I am usually good at getting a minimum of 64 oz and if we had a water cooler at work I would drink more. I also drink decaf coffee , 2 cups a day and other than that will drink plain water. I have tea from my trip in china that I need to dip into as well.
Menu -
B - 2 eggs scrambled
S - Oikos triple zero berry yogurt
L - 90/10 burger and 1/2 c Jasmine Rice
S - five grain hot cereal & tbsp almond butter, MTS Protein Shake
Post workout - MTS protein shake
D - Shrimp scampi
exercise - 2nd leg/ab day of the week.
Stay healthy my friends, Mike
PS - you may have noticed I have changed my CW in my signature, I had been away from the Forum and was not weighing or journaling, I did not think I had gained...whoa, I woke up and was 210 pounds! 15 over my maintenance weight. I am down 7.4 pounds since I started my new program on 01/06. my new goal is to get to 190 pounds.
** I also will NEVER underestimate the purpose of OH and the people and support , I will also take any deserved butt whipping with a grain of salt , ( even though I am a fiery Irishman and that would be out of character...LOL)
* Edited to add protein shakes
