Good morning, all! I'll get us going so I can set my intentions for the day :)

Today my goals are to finish my HMGT reading for the week, get my discussion post up for that class, and start/finish the coding exercise for the week. The only other thing that's on my docket is a follow-up with my PCP, so I should be able to get all of this stuff done if I focus.

QOTD: You know the saying, "I'd like to be a fly on that wall." What wall would YOU like to be a fly on? (I'll reply in a comment.)

1: protein shake
2: leftover asian chicken wonton cups
3: leftover chicken curry meatballs (Tuesday is leftover night!)

liquid and vites: on track
exercise: hopefully I'll make time for some yoga

How about you?

QOTD:

I have two.

1 - I'd like to be a fly on the wall at my brother's home. I only see how he and my nephew are on vacation and I'm really curious about how they are at home.

2 - George and Kellyanne Conway. OMG. I really, really wonder what their dinner table conversations are like!

Good morning, Gwen! My you've got some stuff on your agenda for the day. I have a class on Tuesdays from 10-12, but no prep required except getting dressed (I usually can do that.)

QOTD: You know the saying, "I'd like to be a fly on that wall." What wall would YOU like to be a fly on? When my four kids are all talking about me -- I actually suspect that seldom happens and that they talk about all their own stuff and not mom. But they are incredibly interesting and I know at one point, they all discussed how to assimilate their childhoods into their lives. We are way past that now. So probably its more about my health.....but I guess if I asked they would tell me. That sounds like a very bad idea....

B: Chobani yogurt

S: Premier protein shake in coffee

L: Chicken nut salad with greens

S: ????

D: I haven't decided; I may need to cook something, but there are two meatballs in the frig.

Good morning! Sometimes you wear me out just reading your schedule Gwen!:-)

It is 15 degrees right now and foggy, but the sun is coming out...woo hoo! Taking my mom to an appointment in our ski resort town about 30 minutes from here. I always took forward to going there because it is so beautiful and busy with tourists. The lights at night from the ski runs form the shape of a lion, which you can see from anywhere on a clear night.

QOTD-I love this question Gwen! Along the lines of your answer I would add Michael Cohen and James Comey. Sometime I wonder what my father and his "roommate" have to say about me.

B-1/2 Quest protein bar, coffee

L-2%Fage with raspberries and pecans

S-Hot tea

D-Will probably eat out tonight

E-?

Have a safe and peaceful Tuesday!

Good afternoon! DH has been sleeping until noon lately so it makes for a late start to my day too even though I'm up at 6:30 and walk from 8-9. It is still cool but sunny here today and tomorrow. It should start warming up Thursday (yeah!).

QOTD: I'm not sure I'd like to be on anyone's wall because I'm afraid I'd hear something I didn't want to.

2 Years 10 months post-op (maintaining below goal for 2 years, 2 months)

Always lots of coffee...

B: eggs, cottage cheese and Canadian bacon

L: tuna salad, pickles and cottage cheese

D: Fish (out to dinner)

S: sweetened cottage cheese

Gwen, your food sounds good! Do you have the recipe for "asian chicken wonton cup" and your "chicken curry meatballs"? I need some new things to eat. :)

Had my bone density test down this morning, (I'm in my maintenance years... lol) .... came out of the building with snow falling so beautifully.

QOTD: A fly on the which wall? I would love to watch my daughter read the bedtime stories to my grand babies as they get ready for bed tonight. I miss those precious moments as a mother.

B: protein drink

L: stir fry steamed veggies with turkey, salsa, taco seasonings, parm cheese

S: chobani yogurt

D: steamed veggies with baked fish (stinking up the kitchen... lol)

S:yogurt, apple

Ex: elliptical and some resistance training.

https://emilybites.com/2018/01/asian-chicken-wonton-cups.htm l -- If you're going to use the wonton wrappers, I recommend baking them in the muffin tins empty and assembling the cups when you're going to eat them (since the filling is completely cooked). Otherwise the cups get soggy. I used button mushrooms instead of shiitake.

https://whiteonricecouple.com/recipes/thai-curry-chicken-mea tballs/ -- I think I did this as written. I used a bay leaf instead of a kaffir lime leaf and definitely included the lime juice and cilantro at the end.
