What are you eating today Sunday RNYers?

Your microwave might be too high, but also the plates might be too cold before they get heated fast. Try running them under ho****er before you add your food and heat in the micro?

Hockey!!! I've become a huge fan lately!!

If you are up to driving to Chicago on November 27th, you can have my tickets. I have an eye doctor that afternoon and will just want to go home afterwards, so they will just go to waste.

oh wow - that is really nice of you to offer!! We've got a lot going on that Tues and Wed, though - so that's probably not going to work. I'm in Chicago the following week, though, but that's because of I have surgery there!! Thanks again, though - super nice of you to offer!! I may take you up on it one of these days!

Jim, I hope that your osteoarthritis eases up. I know how painful that can be. Hang in there!

Enjoy Tampa Cynthia! I'm up and did my run 9 miles. My neck is feeling 90% better. And my range of motion is almost normal/ o will see a chiropractor cause it seems like i need an adjustment. I'm not taking the muscle relaxers any more. My weight dropped 5#'s- I knew my body was just not happy with everything that was going on.

Qotd: hmmm- I cant live with out my vegetable peeler and toaster over. I'm not a coffee drinker so no issue there. The peeler I'm sure has saved me from slicing off a layer of skin. The toaster oven is just multifunctional, heats, toast, bakes, keeps warm in a cozy little size.

212 today, 3.6 years out

m1: oatmeal with blueberries and 2 boiled eggs

m2: shrimp

m3: salmon and green beans

m4: a maybe meal, tbd

I'm so glad you're feeling better, Shauna!

Morning all, happy Sunday!

I have been very stressed over the last several weeks, and yesterday developed a very sore throat, which is still plaguing me today, and making my ears feel involved, too. I get sick very infrequently, thank God, aside from occasional headaches which seem mostly hydration related. But I have been very worried, and it's been rough. I can actually pinpoint a moment two or so evenings ago when I, on some subtle yet effective level, acquiesced to allowing myself to not feel well physically. I'm not in a position for this to be a good idea - I need my energy, stamina, non-sick brain, etc. (Somehow I seem to have left my personal maids and castle behind in a former life, and am on my own!) So now I have to fight this bug i basically gave the nod to ("yeah, I guess you can come in, maybe the downtime will give me a break"). That was foolish of me!

Anyway, a little while ago, folks here were chatting about a cold remedy that you make with ho****er, that bubbles. Can someone please refresh my memory about what that OTC medicine is, so I can go buy some? I'm out of Echinacea tincture and not all of those are created equal; it will take several days to order more of the stuff I like. I'll get some vitamin C tablets today, though.

I'm down another pound today to 138.6!

First: Three big mugs of tea, with a little yummy Jordan's Syrup. I may have some vanilla bean torte protein powder in one of them - starting slow today.

B: chicken

L: chicken soup

D: either more chicken, or some tuna.

Have a wonderful day, my friends!

I think that was me - alka seltzer cold tablets create the bubbles -- but read the labels, a couple versions have asprin instead of acetaminophen. They also have a version you mix a powder with ho****er. Hope you feel better!

Thank you Jen! I will buy some.
