What's on Your Tuesday Menu?

Good morning! Back at work after a 4 day weekend. 700 miles ish round trip from AZ and back to see a friend. Not fun. I hate those days when you HAVE to get miles in, rather than enjoy where you are going and what you are seeing. I was good overall during the weekend, but bad on Sunday night. I tried at least one bite of everything, and two of the butter cake at the end. But all my other efforts seem to be paying off and I held steady on weight. Work should be busy today as everyone starts powering back up and I'm looking forward to the day going by quickly.

QoTD: We play hours of Phase 10, Yahtzee and Pinochle.

Menu:

B: hb egg and 1/4 C cottage cheese

L: 2 oz bulgogi beef and 1/2 C cauliflower "fried" rice

D: 3 -4 oz artichoke heart stuffed chicken breast, 1 oz sweet potato, 1-2 brussel sprouts

Peace Everyone!

When we were kids my parents made us play Pinochle. I was like 5 but they would take plastic lids and secure them together with a button because our hands were too small to hold all the cards and they would give us a cheat sheet so we would know what we needed each hand. I remember playing for hours.

We watched Greyhound also, I thought it was really good.

G'morning all!

Love that meme, Liz! It was DH's face last night when I walked into the kitchen and he was having pop tarts and a glass of milk. He said "don't need any lectures!" The funny thing is that man can eat anything and would never gain weight, but having lived with me he tries to be mindful of what he eats in front of me. I don't like pop tarts, anyway!

Yesterday was a gorgeous sunny day here in mid 70s, almost like summer time. It was nice getting out for a short walk with Luna and feel the sun on my face.

QOTD: back gammon. I grew up playing it and in our family the bragging rights were off the roof if you beat my dad, he was the master. I like some card games but not really good at them. With kids we play BS and some other version of it.

I'm still taking it easy with my meals

• B: protein coffee
• L: egg drop soup
• S: sf jello or Fage yogurt
• D: more soup
• E: nope

Happy taco Tuesday!

forgot about backgammon. That was HUGE when I was in college, and we played it all the time. I don't think I've played it in 30+ years. My brother still has the set I gave him for Christmas one year...

I have a really nice one made of wood that is ornate. My dad gave it to me when I moved here. It was his personal gift to me. I cherish that set with my life. Have taught the game to my kids and DH but it's not the same. No real competition. ;)

When I catch DH eating Pop tarts I always say you know that isn't even food. There is no nutritional value of putting that in your body. As I snack on M&M's after he goes to bed. LOL

LOL DH counteracts the no nutritional value of the poptart with a glass of milk. I have never been tempted by poptart, I want my sweets to be decadent.

Good Morning Liz and Menuers,

Oh I love todays Meme. I love busting people on there diets. Especially my DB who claims doesn't eat that much but is over 300lbs and had an old weight loss surgery. As he was leaving Sunday I saw him pack a to go with 2 cupcakes and two cookies. I said I am glad your diabetes is healed up since you plan on eating those cupcakes.

I have a dentist appointment today but that look to be it. I should be fairly busy at work today since yesterday was a holiday so it should zoom by. I am still playing the lottery and praying I win. I would love to be able to change not just my life but my friends and family as well. Buy and island and have everyone quarantine before they come and live and party there till this **** is over. That would be great!!!

QOTD: We have been trying to play a new game out there called Throw Throw Burrito (Its a mix between UNO and Dodgeball) but I think you need at least 4 to make it fun and we have just not got around to it.

Accountability: I did have the last few M&M's that were in the bowl but it is empty now so hopefully I will stick to an apple if I need a snack.

TSS: 3 years 1 Months and 8days 134 (Lowest 129.4)

B: Coffee with sugar free ID caramel Macchiato

MS: Premier Caramel Protein shake and berries

CB: Coffee with sugar free ID caramel Macchiato

L: , Crock pot pizza, snack selects.

D: Turkey meatballs red lentil pasta and cauliflower bread sticks I found at Aldi.

Exercise: 50 minute tread mill(done)

Water and vitamins: On track. I take a Bariatric Advantage Ultra multi w/iron I use bariatric advantage Calcium chews and 500mg of Magnesium.

Everybody have a Great day.

Brightest Blessing
