Menus and Miles Monday 23rd

WARNING TO SELF AND TO ANYONE WHO WILL LISTEN!!! AVOID 'BAD' CARBS AT ALL COSTS!!! THEY ARE ADDICTING!! THEY WILL SLOW DOWN YOUR WEIGHT LOSS DURING THE LOSING STAGE (and you won't even notice)!! THEY WILL MAKE THE SCALE GO UP AFTER THE HONEYMOON PERIOD IS OVER.

Success in Maintenance starts with GOOD CHOICES during the Honeymoon Period.

I feel I need to repeat this: I am a FIRM believer in Good Whey Protein Drinks!!!!! I have IC (Irritable Bladder Syndrome) and I can only have them while I'm not having a flare up. It is sooooo much harder to do Maintenance without them!

Happy Monday!! I only have 1 more day of wor****il Dec. 7th.  We are leaving on a Disney Cruise on Saturday....YEAH...6 Days with my 2 DD's and DGKids (which is better than a cruise)!!!!!

Maintenance 7+ years

Wow, is it that time already? Hope you have a wonderful week and great weather.

It's been cold here all day.  Stayed in and haven't started unloading the trailer.  Nothing I need in there right now.  Muscle pump tonight.

decaf protein coffee  33g
eggbeaters, cheese, kale
lemon tea protein  13g
veggie beef soup
lemon tea protein  13g
chili
protein shake or hot chocolate  23g

I can't remember what state you live in.  How cold is it there?  I needed to stop for gas last night but I took the chance and waited until this morning when it would be a little warmer with the sun out. Fortunately I wasn't left at the side of the road.  I'm just about ready to turn my heater on at work to get the chill off.  Sunny Florida will feel nice next week but the snow will probably be laying on the ground when we get home.  One year our van was snowed in at the airport so DH always puts a shovel in now.

Sounds Good Price!  I had all intentions of making scrambled eggs this morning but DD called and I ran out of time.

I'm in Western NC close to the mountains.  It was in the lower 40s all day yesterday with a wind.  And this morning our water was frozen but not for long.  We haven't winterized the pump house yet but will today although last night was the last night of below freezing for a while.  Suppose to get in the 50s today and I hope to get the trailer unloaded.

Ya'll have a blast.

This is our 3rd one and we love them!!!!!  The most relaxing vacation ever!! This year we are going on one that has the Princesses plus the Avengers for the boys.  This is our first Christmas one and we are super excited.  Last year we were scheduled for a Christmas one and then DD found out she was pregnant so we had to move it up.  I can honestly say there isn't one thing that we don't like about them.

When you decide to go on one let me know what ship and I can tell you which rooms are the best and a few other things. I like the smaller ships but DD#1 liked the bigger Fantasy.  I can't wait to hear DD#2's opinion.

This is our last one for awhile.  DD#1 wants to get an in ground pool, fireplace and picnic area so I guess cheer comps will be our only vacations next year.  I'd like to go to Yellowstone again so maybe DH and I will do that.

Your menu looks good!  How have you been doing on your carbs and the scale? 

I have to work on DH.  He is not wanting to go.  I will let you know if we decide to do one. I'm trying to talk him into going on just a regular one with my sister and her husband next April or May.

One day I do good and the next day I don't do so good....  The scale has been in the same 141 - 142 range.

Roz, more power to you.  I would be hiding in my cabin for the duration.  lol
