What's on your menu today (Thursday) RNYers?
Thank you Kelly - the odd part about the weight gain is that I could see it in my face, but did not feel it....I was running, working out, etc.....it just proves that I need to journal and weigh and stay diligent...

That regain is a bite in the ass, isn't it??! Just 6-8 pounds have made a difference in my clothes, and I'm feeling so down about it... like I've gained 100 pounds back! Gotta stay on track long enough to see the scale react.
And I'm totally with you on the Winter Blues and cold weather.... I really need Spring to get here so I feel better!
Fiery Irishman.... LOL!

Hi Pammie ! Yeah, the regain did more to my head than my body. I despise the scale. A bad scale day can ruin my day. Since I started on 01/06 I am weighing every morning. I have yet to see a gain since the 6th and I am happy with that. Odd That I could see the weight in my face, but could not feel it in my body.
and.....what ...is so funny about my Fiery Irishman comment????? LOL

Good Morning Daisy and Menu Family!
WOW! Saralisa got offered the Washinton D.C. internship that she wanted and she accepted it yesterday! She has to be at a mandatory training session on Saturday so tomorrow I am driving her to Omaha to take a plane to Virginia. She will be staying with my brother and sister-in-law in Centerville, VA, which is near Washington D.C. Her internship is until May 4th. I am so proud of her, excited for her, nervous for her, worried and I am going to miss her SO very much! Mama bird doesn't want her baby bird to fly away from the nest! But I have to want what's best for her and put her into God's hands and trust that she will be okay.
QOTD: I drink a LOT of ice water! I have a 52 oz. Bubba Keg that I fill up several times a day. I don't track my liquids, but as many times as I fill my keg up, I'm sure I must be getting plenty. I also drink at least 2 large mugs of coffee in the morning, sometimes more than that. I occasionally drink G2 (low calorie gatorade) if I've had leg cramps for the electrolytes, but mostly I just drin**** water and coffee.
Accountability: Yesterday: Protein - 75, Calories - 1,165, Carbs - 92.
B: prosciutto & mozzarella sticks, light & fit Greek yogurt
L & D: I might take Saralisa out to eat for lunch and/or dinner since this is my last day with her so I'm not sure for either lunch or dinner right now.
S: prosciutto & mozzarella sticks, light & fit Greek yogurt, 2 Atkin's peanut butter cups
E: Walking at Walmart & mall, taking Blossom for a walk later on.
Have a FANTASTIC day everyone!
