Whats on your (Photo) Friday Menu, RNYers?
I think that your seats are right across from mine, I am section 328.
What did you think of the new scoreboard?

Mornin' All!
later this morning I do my monthly gig talking to a pre-op class at my clinic - then I have to make something for a social tonight - and then tonight's the social. I'm supposed to bring a dessert item. Although I went wild over this recipe I found online for Nutella pie, I decided on pumpkin/bran bread instead. I'm probably more likely to come home with an empty dish if I take a Nutella pie, but on the off chance I don't - I do NOT want the thing in my house. Pumpkin/bran bread, on the other hand, should be really heavy - thus not a particularly good "binge" candidate. Although another option is to just leave any remaining bread at the host's house! (probably the best option, actually...I may just do that!). (I doubt I would leave any remaining Nutella pie at the host's house - I'd want to bring it home with me. Another reason NOT to make it...)
Accountability was great again yesterday. I went to the water aerobics class, too. YAY!!
QOTD: not a weight loss item, but I am so happy that they've invented Impossible Burgers and Beyond Burgers. I have not knowingly eaten ground beef in YEARS because of Mad Cow and E. coli outbreaks - and the one item I have truly missed is a good, juicy burger. Now I can have them again!!! YAY!!!
4 years 3 months out:
B: protein pancakes topped with plain Greek yogurt and homemade fruit compote, coffee with half & half
MS: late breakfast today (usually meaning no morning snack), but I won't be home from the clini****il after 1:00, so I'd better have something. I guess a protein shake or bar....
L: salad with diced turkey breast and light dressing
AS: crustless protein pumpkin pie
D: I"m going to skip this because of the social thing (the pumpkin pie should hold me over for awhile) - and then be really careful at the social!!
here is a photo of me and NYMom - I think this was about two years ago when she was visiting her son who lived in the Chicago area at the time. It was so fun to spend an afternoon with her!!

Hello JB and Menuers,
Sorry your under the weather JB the only thing I can say is Vicks Sinex. I can't live with out it when my nose is stuffy. Hope you feel better soon.
I was at a pain management Dr. yesterday to see if he can help me with my Tailbone Pain. It gets so bad sometimes I cry but like most of us I have a desk job and sit for 8 hours a day. Even the wheelchair cushion doesn't help after 8 hours. He put me on Cymbalta and a topical cream. If it helps that will be great but I got to be honest bone on skin isn't going to go away with nerve medicine. The only thing that will keep me going back is that he is very handsome.
Yesterday was the day I have fallen to the peer pressure. Yes I am now a fan of Chaffles and I also switched my creamer to the SF pumpkin spice. I may be the only one here that does not like fall. I love flip flops and swim wear so when pumpkin season hits I try to resist because it makes me depressed. I always hold out on anything new or different I don't even think I had a cell phone till 2003. But I am now a member of these clubs.
QOTD: I do sales for a living so if anybody needs Ostomy, Wound care, or Urilogiicals, I am your go to. However Since surgery I think I can rep Real Good Foods. I love the poppers and they have a new breakfast sandwich I am just dying to try.
Accountability was great yesterday. However before surgery getting off a weekend gain was so much easier. I have only lost 2 pounds of my gain and I have gymed every day so far. But I know what I need to do to get there and that damn peanut butter jar is ruining my plan. This weekend I am going to prepare some Premier fudge and cheesecake bites so I have better choices in the evening when the grazing urge takes control. PLAN PREPARE SUCCEED
TSS 1 year 9 months 9 days 142.4 lbs ( on my way back to 140.2 after weekend of many bad choices)
CB: Dark roast coffee with and SF Pumpkin spice and Miralax and fiber
MS Oikos triple zero Apple cinnamon yogurt and one Sous Vide turkey Egg
L: . Zucchini lasagna some baked beans
D: Flourless gluten free low carb pizza with homemade sauce.

Everybody have a great day.
Brightest Blessings,
Chrissy

"The only thing that will keep me going back is that he is very handsome". Hahaha!...you sound like me! But I know that pain is no fun - I feel it too and am always having to get up and move around just so my tailbone gets a break. I hope you feel better. Great fun wedding pics, thanks for sharing them!
