Happy Friday Menu peeps!
I am going to attend my first post-op support group meeting tomorrow morning. they usually have it once or twice a month, lead by my surgery center's staff psychiatrist. I went to one of them pre-op as a surgery prerequisite but It's always held on a Saturday morning and Story had dance classes at the same time for a while and the last one was on my husband's B-day weekend so we had plans...but I am finally going to check it out and see if it's something that might be helpful for me.
QOTD: I live about 40 minutes from my parents, who still live in the house I spent most of my life in...and I work about 10 minutes from their house. I spent my early childhood in Iowa City, til we moved to the NW Chicago suburbs when I was 11. a lot of my cousins and aunts/uncles still live near Iowa City and we visit there once or twice a year...its about a 3.5 hour drive.
I live in a different town about 20 miles North of my parents now but my siblings and I all live within about a 30 mile radius of our parents...my brother is the farthest, about an hour away from me and my sister is about 45 mins from me.
honestly it's the only reason we still live in Illinois. My family has always been close and I want to make sure our kids grow up together.
Morning: iced coffee w/half vanilla PP and sugar free blueberry flavor syrup
B: greek L&F yogurt
L: turkey italian sausage w/kale and beans
S: string cheese
D: not sure--i forgot to set something out to thaw so hopefully DH figures it out since he's off today LOL
Pics: Face to Face friday--left pic is from a few years ago at my cousin's bachelorette party...right was last week. Other pic is my accountability pic from my workout last night LOL

Great photos! I never thought about accountability photos for workouts; that might help me on some of my less motivated days.

You look so pretty in both but much happier in the 2nd.
I am so glad this week is almost over -- so much crazy at work, I had to step in on 3 personnel issues because it appears people have lost their freaking minds! I don't buy into the full moon/astrology stuff but when everyone loses their minds at the same time, I have to wonder.
QOTD - I am about a 14 hour drive or a 90 minute flight plus a 45 minute drive from my hometown. I go back to Colorado regularly but to my home town only when I'm forced so about 1X every 7-10 years.
Accountability - I was so hungry yesterday. I ate an extra cheese square and an extra meat stick plus I had a decaf at bookclub and used half and half. I ended up about 100 calories and 3 carbs over plan so I guess it could have been worse. So far, I don't feel like i"m starving!
This weekend I am packing up some clothes that no longer fit to send to my mom; others for donation and going to try to take a technology break as well. I'm going to make up some home made yogurt on Sunday and maybe some egg bites for the week on Saturday; my last attempt did not go so well so fingers crossed these are edible. Sunday, I try "beginning bungee" which is a bungee cardio workout. I'm a bit scared.
Menu:
B - coffee + premiere
S - egg with .5 oz shredded cheddar cheese
Lunch -Dannon Light and Fit greek
D - 2 oz ground beef, slice cheese, pickle
556 calories, 63 protein, 23 carbs
I will treadmill it today while watching the next episode of Castle Rock.
My photos are one that I took on the Highline in NYC last week and a picture taken of myself and a high school friend when we met at a gallery last Saturday. Both make me happy!
