What's on your Wednesday Menu RNY'ers?
Good Morning Peach and Menu Family!
QOTD: Nope. I think I've been to a casino maybe twice in my life and limited myself to losing maybe $50. I've played Keno once in a while with friends for fun. I limit myself to losing $10 or so. I've bought a few scratch-off tickets just for the fun of scratching them off. I've never won anything substantial.
Accountability: I had another day where all I wanted to do was EAT! I'm not even going to report my calories from yesterday. They were high. Today's another day. I weighed myself today and I'm still at 137 in spite of eating like a horse the past few days. Whew!
B: prosciutto & mozzarella sticks, banana
L: going to be out of town so fast food somewhere. Likely a burger without the bun.
D: banana, sugar free jam, peanut butter on 45 calorie bread
S: prosciutto & mozzarella sticks, light & fit Greek yogurt, banana, frozen yogurt
E: walking dogs
Have a wonderful day everyone!

Good morning! It was supposed to rain here yesterday too but ended up hot and sunny. I was just out on the deck a few minutes ago and it did start rumbling, then sprinkling so who knows what today will bring?
QOTD: No gambling at all: No casinos, no lottery, no betting with friends on sports. I don't like the odds (might be the math major in me OR that I like to have control over outcomes as much as I can). Casinos also make me crazy with the lights, noise and smoke. I've walked through a couple and feel like my senses are being assaulted. I do have investments which sometimes feel like gambling, but they are all very conservative.
Accountability: The last couple of days I've had a slice of bread with peanut butter in the evening. I don't need it! So weird that I crave peanut butter when I disliked it pre-WLS.
2 Years, 4.5 months post-op (maintaining at goal for 20 months)

B: eggs, cottage cheese and Canadian bacon
L: tuna salad, pickles and cottage cheese
D: Making a new chicken recipe (I have 2 I bought ingredients for)
S: Siggis yogurt or homemade cottage cheese with fresh berries

Good morning Peach and menu crew. Antibiotics are finally doing the job and I am getting back to normal, still stuffy as hell and no fever last night. I had to go to Montreal to do a press run yesterday, if not for that I would have taken the day off.
QOTD - quick gambling story, when I was a newlywed my wife worked afternoons and I was on day shift, I had alot of free time and hung out with some buddies. One of my buddies had started to bet on sports and had won $500 bucks the week prior so we all got in on the action. The gambling cycle went weekly. First night of the week we bet a "sure thing" and were quickly down $100 bucks...we had the rest of the week to make it back and lets just say it did not go as planned. I got out at $500 down and one buddy was up to $1000 down...I paid the bills and could have let it slide, but I told my wife. Lets just say I have not bet since....
B - oikos triple zer
s- ham roll up with chive and onion cream cheese
L - Chicken divan
s- cheese stick
D - ribeye
E - night off as I still cannot breathe...LOL

Good morning menu friends! Lily and I got 3 miles in this morning before we got drenched and so we'll try to do2 more miles sometime later. QOTD no--too much of a tightwad. Yesterday the poison ivy seemed better and less itchy but today it seems worse again so I may end up back at the urgent care again. It seems to have spread on my stomach and looks red and irritated now especially in the skin folds. Have to love all the extra skin--not!
