What's on your menu (Wednesday) RNYers?

hahaha yes, yes he is ;)

I've been up those steps!!

Good morning~ I've had many days like that Jen, in fact just yesterday! Hang in there. So far, my morning is good - easy commute, coffee is especially tasty and my headache is gone but it's only 7am so we'll see!

QOTD - It depends on what kind of attitude. If I am stressed and need to calm, my go to is James Taylor -anything JT or 70's music in general - I love ALL of it. I don't have a particular song at the moment, but I know exactly what you mean and listening to it a 100 times.

Accountability - great w/no bars, I've cut out the extra carbs and slider foods - back to basics day 3

Have a wonderful day!

Great job with the back to basics focus!! You and Kelly are doing great on the "no bars" plan!

Good morning everyone. My stomach is in knots this morning. My daughter left about 5:30am to go take her NCLEX test in downtown Portland. She is nervous, but going to rock it! She is going to be an amazing nurse.

I am headed to get my hair cut and colored. I am having one of those hormonal days where I am contemplating just cutting it all off. We shall see.

QOTD- I love anything from the 80's. Bring on the Air Supply and Roxette!

I have been thinking about my food lately and switching it up. Something has got to change because my weight has been the same for the past year and I am still 25 lbs from goal. So, I am thinking 3 meals, no snacks and really upping my fluids. I remember when I wouldn't drink any coffee in the morning until I had at least 40 oz of water. I need to get back to that. I need to get really focused. I hope it's not too late.

Food for today-

40 ounces of water

2 black coffee

3 oz boars head peppered ham, 2 eggs and 1 oz light motz

salad bar from Chucks produce, egg, turkey, tomato and cuke. ( i am going to be that crazy lady with my SG poppyseed dressing in my purse)

Cilanto lime shrimp from costco. ( I have never tried these, but they look tasty)

Lots of water, hot tea and vitamins always.

Have a great day everyone and share your joy!!

You must be so proud of your daughter; I hope the testing goes well! I can also sing along loudly with Must have been Love...in fact, it's going through my head on a loop now, lol.

Good luck with the fluid intake, it's hard to change, for me it take my body a few days to adjust when I increase water.

Hello all...

QOTD: Can't think of anything specific, but I just re-watched Jesus Christ Superstar with John Legend and loved it all over again!

Time out 2 y, 7 mo accountability, still a struggle w/blt's

B coffee w/ sf coffeemate, chicken

L chicken, baby carrots

D last of the leftover venison steak, broccoli

S homemade Greek yogurt (fresh batch!!) blue berries

He's so talented!

My kids have a virus, (no vomiting thankfully but it is effecting them all differently so I am bracing myself and getting proactive about increasing MY fluids and protein just in case it hits me I will have had a head start on healing).

Accountability - doing lots of extra things for kids but plan to get on the treadmill if I am able to. Slamming the water, using a straw to get more in and it is working. Increase of my usual protein has been a challenge but shown me that I CAN get more in if I force myself even if it is uncomfortable and challenging I have to actively PLAN for it or it isn't happening.

QOTD: I can't think of a specific song but I found some of the songs mentioned here replaying in my mind. I listen to different things on youtube when I work out. I pay for YouTube red to skip the ads...It is worth it for me because I have teens and I pay for a family membership and it makes my walks go by faster and I try to learn something and that motivates me.

I hope everyone is out there rocking their Wednesdays. Stay safe, stay healthy, Friends

Oh, sending "hope you avoid the virus" thoughts; it's hard when the kids get it though...they transfer germs everywhere!
