What's on your (BEFORE & AFTER PHOTO) Friday Menu, RNYers?

You define inspiration!

QOTD: I did a bunch of research for people with my BMI 10 years out. The most successful people were the DS'ers, they lost more weight, had a lower % of regain, and some can eat a lot but most can eat a normal amount of calories per day during maintenance.

B: Coffee and protein bar

S: Protein shake

L: Turkey w/low carb wrap

S: Protein bar

S2: Hopefully I won't need it...

D: Chicken Wings

AD: Carbmaster yogurt

W: 120 oz

E: 5 miles (I got extra steps in this morning!)

AC: Yesterday was great!

TSS: 2 years 10 months

Good morning everyone! Happy Friday, Happy Friday the 13th and HAPPY FULL MOON! What a beautiful combination.

QOTD - I researched for about 5 years, and ultimately wanted something permanent and my doctor only did LB or RNY.

B - Instant protein oatmeal with cranberries and almonds. I WANTED A TACO. Ugh.
L - Cheese pizza w/kale salad
S - atkins shake
D - No idea yet, working at second job this evening. I will probably stop at local Taco Cabana and pick up a beyond meat taco bowl. I'm SO excited they are now carrying this. It tastes great, the protein counts are great and I can eat something else instead of "Just a black bean taco please" and still feel good after.

I hope you all have a wonderful day!!


*editing to add a photo. This isn't a before, isn't an after. It's simply a current of me, in my happy place. This was during a "puppy noses and yoga poses" event I attended this week. Yoga, and puppies?? YES PLEASE!

I love seeing all the before and after photos, they are so inspiring. I simply don't have any readily available that fit the bill, but still wanted to post a pic!

Your fur baby is adorable! What is he/she?

Hi Sheila! This beautiful baby is available here in San Antonio, adoptable from SNIPSA. This was an event I went to called puppy noses and yoga poses. We got to do yoga, surrounded by adoptable puppies. This one is just one of the floofers I fell in love with!

OMG! I am so self conscious doing yoga, but I would do it in a heartbeat if a fluffer like this was next to me. What a great idea!

I don't know much about yoga, I don't do most of the poses correctly (except child's pose, I'm great at that!) and yet I feel so good doing it. I find that most people are too worried about themselves, their posture and poses to worry about me! And yes, having the fluffer helped immensely!

Love this pic!

It makes me happy just to look at it! I get to go again, October 1st. They do the event once a month.

What an adorable pic! Look at the smile on that little pup!
