Good morning all and welcome to Tuesday,

It's weather week here, much like shark week. All type of unpredictable weather behavior is in the air and can bite you at any second. We were supposed to get 2-5 inches overnight and ended up with rain and just a snow dusting instead. Today, it will be a rain/snow mix = slushy fun. Tomorrow - partially sunny, Thursday cloudy, Friday - 5-8 inches. That's your Chicago weather forecast; now back to the news desk.

QOTD- I like when calories are listed and wish that the non-chain restaurants would jump on board. It greatly influences what I order.

B: Dannon Light and Fit Coconut Yogurt, Tangerine.

L: PP shake

D: Chicken fricasee with chickpeas instead of rice. I had a taste for this and it seems like chickpeas may work.

Stay warm. Hug your loved ones.

HW: 371 SW(8/9/21): 324 CW: 215. 0 lbs til goal of skin reduction surgery. I'm still looking for a new plastic surgeon.

Good morning, everybody!

I may have stolen all the sleep, because I was out like a rock last night. It was cold and dark and snowy here, and I had a great night. Sometimes I wake up with mysterious pains but not today.

After such a great college football season, last night's game was a bit disappointing. Michigan won fairly easily. But the Jambalaya was yummy and we got to talk to both boys on the phone, so I can't complain. I took a day off from the gym because the game started early, so back at that today.

We have the Price is Right tickets. March 2 at 3:00 PM, Chicago Theatre. Me, Marilyn and Matt are going. I think that we just need to figure out T-shirts. We have three Tyrolian hats, so I think that we are going to do a Mountain Climber theme, but we have to get Matt's final vote. He may want to do Plinko.

The golf world lost one of its all time greats with the passing of Cindy Morgan this weekend. Rest in Peace Lacy Underall.

QOTD: To a moderate amount. I don't really follow CICO. But I am in favor of the disclosure. Knowing sugar is important to me also.

Breakfast: Bagel

Lunch: Roast Beef

Dinner: Jambalaya

Have a great day, all!

PRAY FOR ME PEOPLE. Our kids' school is closing early for flooding and high winds, and I am getting on a plane?! I am a nervous flyer when it's sunny and smooth so this is REALLY messing with my brain. I am not gonna lie, I might have a glass of wine and a xanax and hope that I don't die of a panic attack. I know, I know, flying is safe, I am more likely to die in a car accident, the pilots know how to fly, turbulence isn't dangerous etc. (and before you ask, not flying a Max, thank god).

Ok, rant over.

QOTD: Hmm no, I am gonna go with PP here. I don't really pay attention because I know what choices are good and what salad has eggs and bacon and cheese and crispy things and many calories. I don't eat out all that much but I order what I want, and bring at least half home :)

I like how your menu includes "keep the coffee flowing".

B: The weird leftover tuna salad I made yesterday - green olives, salt and pepper, and the spicy green sauce you get at a Peruvian chicken place. Yummo. No mayo for you weird mayo haters!

L: TBD, I got nothing, and I have to leave around noon for the airport. Maybe grab something at the airport? God, I am anxious.

D: Going out to a place called Curious Pig. I hope I can talk folks into sharing with me. I think a few things look good, including lobster empanadas and a Nashville hot chicken sandwich.

It's Hilton conference center food from here on out this week. Which means, I will not be going over calories since it's not gonna be very good! Wegovy considers to be a massive help and after a little plateau last week, I am very slowly but steadily seeing results. They consider 1-2 lbs a week to be a success and I want it to be like post-RNY where I dropped 100 lbs in four weeks but ummm that ain't happening (and thank god I don't have 100 lbs to lose, but still!).

Have a great day and send me all the good juju please!
