What's on your (PHOTO) Friday Menu, RNYers?

We did it! We made it to the end of the week! Let's see all of your beautiful faces, today for photo Friday!

Thanks to your suggestions, I am spending this weekend returning the Surface Pro and going ahead with the MacBook Air. Yay! I think it will make a huge difference in my overall life-satisfaction :)

Happy 3 year surgiversary to me! This morning I am 5lbs higher than my lowest post-op weight (and I am fighting HARD not to let it be more!), but I am generally happy with where I am. I know the hardest fight is ahead of me in the next few years, and I am never "cured", but I also feel like this is becoming more of a habit and lifestyle, every day. I said to another poster yesterday that I come here every day to remind myself that I had surgery because otherwise I don't know if I would remember.

Obligatory surgiversary before & after:

This was 10 years ago--the night before my lapband surgery:

This was exactly a year ago at a friend's wedding (2lbs less than this morning):

QOTD: What percentage of your weekends do you typically put towards relaxing vs. getting ready for the week ahead? I always want to do a lot more relaxing than I really do. I think I end up with 70% getting ready vs. 30% relaxing. I need to get better at that...

That dress is stunning! I love it! And, you look great too ;)

Thank you!

Happy Friday menu folks! I hope that your weekend ahead is a good one.

It looks like another lovely day on tap here before a week of rain. We certainly can use the rain but it means I won't get out for my walks as much. No hiking this weekend. I do have swimming planned for the weekend though, so that is good.

We are going to see Hotel Transylvania 3 on Saturday and that should be fun. No other firm plans, which will be nice and relaxing.

QOTD: Some weekends seem to get very full. Since I do try to swim and walk/hike on weekends, that usually takes up a few hours. Then I try to get some cleanup from the week done. But there are those weekends that I just need down time and I end up taking a nap in the middle of the day.

Menu:

B1: vanilla Premier Protein shake, coffee

B2: HB egg, chicken breast

Snack/L1: Cappuccino protein shake, chomps, blueberries

L2 (after gym time): Salmon jerky, apple, almonds

Dinner: not sure

Exercise: an hour of gym time with the trainer

lol! I accidentally posted my main post here. Obviously not paying attention this morning. Let us know how Hotel Transylvania is! I'm dying to take my niece to go see that one :-D

Hope you have a fantastic weekend and enjoy your swim!

Happy surgiversary! Love the dress so happy its Friday!

My legs and hips feel tight today, I think the music I was listening to while I was walking was faster than i am use to, lol.

QOTD I wish I did a better job at preparing for the upcoming week, but I don't. I usually try to find at least one fun thing to do.

Yesterday cals 627, protein 71, carbs 27, fat 27. Today B 1st tea with half and half then chunk chicken, then more tea. L tuna pouch with light mayo and sugar free gherkins. D TBD. Snacks cottage cheese.

Pic is me at work. Nothing much.

Have a great day, y'all!

I love your hair -- that's a style I want to try my next short cycle!

Thanks! I cut it short to prepare for the expected hair loss. Once I get out of that cycle, I'll probably let it grow back to chin length. And my chin length has been changing with the weight loss
