What's on your Wednesday Menu?
Good morning all and Happy Wednesday,
People watching recently came up as a QOTD. I experienced great people watching yesterday. My car wouldn't start again so I had to spend 5 hours waiting for multiple AAA service technicians and dealing with the issue. I was in a sketchy neighborhood that is just starting to see a hint of gentrification efforts. I had stopped at a long-time favorite wing joint on my way to my next appt While this wasn't an ideal situation, I made the best of it. I subsequently cancelled the next 5 hours of my day and accepted my situation. I was actually content waiting. I had shelter, people to watch, a cubs game on the restaurant TV and 3 Buffalo wings to enjoy.
Are you tired yet of reading about my continuous challenges over the last few weeks?
QOTD - I'm not a fan of this question. I'm a huge fan of living in the present, not concentrating in the past, or worrying about the future. That being said, 10 years ago was almost the trough of the toughest time of my life. I really don't want to go back there. However, all my past has made me the person I am today and I wouldn't trade it. I choose 10 years in the future. I am excited to see what the future brings.
B: Dannon Light and Fit Coconut Yogurt, Tangerine.
L: PP shake.
D: 2 Buffalo wings & 3oz rotisserie chicken.

Thanks. I'm really grateful for this support group and our little online (--> real life) community.

Good morning ~ I'm sure you have the cookies and icing prep down to a science, but the thought of filling 300 tiny little icing bags blows my mind! The finished cookie kits you make are beautiful, you are a true artist! I have managed to avoid eye contact with all the Girl Scouts selling cookies who try and guilt you into buying with their cute little faces. They almost had me last weekend when i was with my son - he wanted some but they were gone when we came out of the store - crisis averted! Today is the 1st which is a busy day but I had the biggest head start to date, so I'm in a good place. Nothing of note on my calendar.
QOTD - I'd totally go back if I could change things, but that would effect current day... so no. The future would be weird - I don't want to know about some things until they actually happen. So I guess neither! I've read and seen too many time travel stories, lol.
Accountability - added Lily's chocolate chips, probably 2 servings easily but they upset my stomach so I'm over them.
B- coffee, HB eggs
l- chicken and salad
d- chicken tacos on 25 cal 0 net carb tortillas
s- tomatoes and or jerky
Have a wonderful day!

They were selling candy bars at Crossfit last night (the head trainer wasn't around) and one woman just donated. I was like "I used to be her." In any case, the candy needs to be gone by Saturday morning.
