What's on your Tuesday Menu?

Oh, JB- great job in the success so far with your new plan.

Thank you!

Your snowman story is so great. That had to be a lot of fun. There used to be a lot more snow when I was growing up. We built a huge snowman just about every weekend. My brothers made the huge snowballs for the base and middle and I always made the head.

I was also in charge or decorating. We actually had a coal bin, so the eyes and mouth were easy. After we got a gas furnace, we used rocks and gravel. My mother did not always have the right size carrot. I can remember getting creative with things like a potato nose. And we had a lot of old hats that my dad no longer wore.

But of course there was no top hat there. So our snowman would have either a man's gray felt hat, or a knit cap with a matching scarf. When we made a snow family, they usually all had knit hats. There was always a box of gloves and mittens with one missing. So the mittens would end up on a snowman, but never a matching pair.

hi all- well since I didn't sleep yesterday I had a nap lunch then went to bed early last night. I also 'slept in' and logged into work at 7:45 which is late for me.

food plan worked last night- I didn't plan my evening snacks out so ended up with an apple and edamame and hearts of palm which wasn't too bad. drop in the scale overnight to the lower end of range. Would love to get down another 3 pounds by the end of the month, we will see.

QOTD: I grew up in GA so any snow meant trying to build a snowman. I think if we gathered ALLL the snow that fell we could get one. we had a big snow storm in 1992 and got to go sledding down a main road that was fun.

food plan:

b; coffee with premier

water

chicken sausage/ egg whites/joseph pita

b2: pear/smart cake

l: chicken soup again

d: chicken taco (will have one taco shell)

s: unsure probably should plan it so im not eating random weird crap

Good morning, happy taco tuesday!

QOTD - I did, in the great snow of 1985 that happened in San Antonio. By some fluke of nature, we got 12-14 inches that year. It was fantastic. I was in 6th grade, and we of course did everything we saw on TV, from snowball fights to snow angels and building snowmen. By the end of the day, I was definitely over the snow and colder than I had ever been in my life. It was pretty awesome though.

Breakfast - fasting so hot black coffee, water

Lunch - diced potatoes and kale guisada, toast with vegan butter

Snack - cosmic crisp apple with peanut butter

Snack - fruit smoothie

Dinner - Pasta with veggies, another veggie, crusty bread with some vegan butter

Have a great day everyone!

I was in SA year before last when you guys got the big snowflake looks just like in the movies snow. I got back to my hotel and the entire staff was outside playing in it and my local colleagues were so excited. It really was a bit magical...and they all said the last time it happened was 1985, lol.

Good morning JB and Menuers,

Julia that is great to hear all your hard work is paying off on that scale. 800 calories don't seem like much and the fact that you are doing it is impressive. I never got back yesterday to read so I skimmed over the post I did not view and I see I owe condolences and Happy Birthdays to a few of you. You know who you are. God Bless you.

OK if my day today is like yesterday I will not be able to walk away from my desk. I was so busy and even stayed an hour late in the office trying to fix a computer glitch with a technician that of course did not get fixed. I am going to get back on it as soon as I post.

QOTD: Not in many years but we definitely did as kids. I lived in a neighborhood and I was the youngest of about 25 kids and grew up in the 60's and 70's. As soon as we were aloud out to play we would not come home till Dad whistled to bring us home. We were always outside. I never remember being in the house to much. We lived on a huge hill so we had great sled ridding right in our yard. Still to this day I would live to go sledding but with DH in pain does not look like it will happen any time soon.

Accountability. Thought I was good Scale said NOOO.

SS: 3 years 0 Months and 25 day 134.8 (Lowest 129.4)

MS: Premier Apple cinnamon oats Protein shake and berries

L: Chicken thigh , celery sticks, home made blue cheese dressing, snake selects.

D: Kielbasa and sauerkraut, Lima beans

Exercise: 50 minutes of treadmill (done)

Water and vitamins: On track. I take a Bariatric Advantage Ultra multi w/iron I use bariatric advantage Calcium chews and my blood work has been great. My B12 has been High so I cut my sublingual to every 3rd or 4th day. And I have now added 500mg of Magnesium

Everybody have a Great Day .

Brightest Blessing

My kids were, and still are, whistle trained. It's awesome for me to whistle in a crowd and watch their heads still pop up and look around for me. LOL.

I never learned to whistle.

I never learned to whistle but I miss his whistle. It was a beautiful sound.
