What's on your menu today (Wednesday) RNYers?
I waited until week 3 of my getting my **** together to try it. Seemed to work and I was fulfilled. Am going to give it a whirl next week as well.

Good morning all, Daisy, I love hearing that you're good and (presumably) migraine-free for the door...knock on wood.
I have a packed day. Currently waiting for a service guy at my house, then running to work for 2 meetings with board members, a visit from one of our local state Reps, our monthly staff meeting, and then a Friends meeting tonight. I have all my meals packed and ready to go, though!
QOTD: I'm a winter gal as well. I'm sure some of this has to do with my favorite activities - knitting and reading - are such cozy hobbies. Being snug in my house knitting feels amazing on a cold and snowy day!

Good morning everyone! Happy Wednesday!!
QOTD - I love fall, winter and spring. I hate summer. I hate to be hot; even though I'm freezing all the time now, I still hate to be hot!
Busy day today, getting my car serviced to make sure it's up for my weekend migration while doing many, many conference calls. I love the technology that makes this all possible!
Accountability - did not get enough fluid yesterday and I'm feeling it. I was in the 60s and I'm usually 100-105.
Time since surgery -11.5 months
Coffee + half and half X3, tea, water, going to try to hit 120 today and tomorrow to recover from yesterday -- if you need me, check the ladies room.

So happy!! When I chose to move here for work, I told myself I couldn't complain about the weather because I came knowingly...but I will be so glad to escape the surface of the sun now!!

G'Morning from snowy Wisconsin!
It looks like a snow globe out there! i have no idea how much we got (and are still getting), but it looks like a lot!!
I was hoping my weight would finally drop under 150 this morning, but no - still 150.2. But I'm feeling super waterlogged this morning, so I may have had too much sodium yesterday - that means a ton of water for me today! It may drop down tomorrow - but too bad since today is my official "weigh day"!! Unbelievable how long it takes to lose 3 lbs now that I'm normal-sized. GRRR! (150 is my limit nowadays - anything below that is fine!)
QOTD: any but winter. I used to hate summer, too, but I'm fine with it now. The heat doesn't bother me like it used to.
Accountability: has been great since right after New Year's Day
3 years 7 months out:
B: homemade Greek yogurt with kiwi slices, coffee with half & half
MS: protein shake
L: 1 C cottage cheese or 1 C turkey chili
AS: choice of light yogurt, protein pumpkin pie, or 2 T hummus with baby carrots
D: steelhead trout, veggies
ES: same choices as AS
ex: if i do anything, it'll have to be in the house - no way am I going outside today!
Good Morning! Daisy, way to resist temptation. I had a stressful day and couldn't get my mind to shut down last night and that resulted in my caving to unplanned snacking before bed. Today will be better.
QOTD: Fall and Spring. Like you, I don't like summer at all.
Time since surgery: 4 years 5 months
B: SF latte, eggbeaters, ½ an orange and 2 turkey sausage links
L: Albacore lettuce wraps and baby carrots
S: Deli ham, carbmaster cottage cheese, SF almond milk latte
D: Carrot spirals with Alfredo sauce and chicken sausage, sliced fruit, and 2 squares dark chocolate
ES: Homemade Greek yogurt with SF syrup and ¼ cup fiber cereal
E: An hour stair climber and 35 mins of elliptical this morning
V/W: On track
Totals: Cals:1279 Protein:116 Carbs:115 Fat:41
Have a great one!
Hello Everyone!
I've been crazy stressed and busy at work thes days. I promise you all that there really is a good reason for teachers to retire in their mid 50's! Oof. I'm 57 and have been teaching since I was 22 but in many states so I have another 5 years (at least thanks to the RI governor Lamar messing with our retirement!) to go. I'm managing and even doing a great job in my opinion but teaching full time followed by full time musical Rehearsals after school and all weekend is getting to me. I shall persevere without eating through it!!
Accountability: great yesterday but crappy all weekend.
QOTD: fall is my favorite. Love the colors and the crisp cool weather without bitter cold or hotness!
B: coffee, premier protein and protein hot chocolate
L: chicken Breast and carrots
S: pork chop
S: prosciutto
D: grilled chicken tenders, mozzarella cheese and salad
