Menus and Miles Thursday Jan. 21st

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!

Finally back to work!!!  It's going to be an easy catch up day.  I had my one and only client appt. at 9am so it's paperwork the rest of the day. 

My scales are being so nice to me since my bowel blockage repair.  It makes me wonder how long it was there and if the pounds will come back.  I truly thought the dry cleaners were shrinking the waist of my dress pants and I was having them measure them every time.  Now they are soooo baggy.

My surveyor has gone to lunch but basically, he is done except for the exit.  I will have 2, I think, recommendations which is an excellent survey.  He has been very complimentary.

Today is the calm before the storm. Ice starts this evening then snow up to 10". 

decaf protein coffee  33g
eggbeaters, cheese
Caribbean cooler protein 13g
white bean chili, cheese
Caribbean cooler protein 13g
pork chop, brussel sprouts
protein shake or hot chocolate  23g

YEAH PRICE!!!!!

Do you ever get much snow?  We are used to the snow but only suppose to get 1-3". 

Sounds like an Awesome Menu!!!

I think we have about 8" now and it is still snowing and will until tomorrow morning.  That is a lot for us.  We usually get a couple of little snows a year.  Last time we got much was a few years ago and we had 2 14" snows and a couple of 4".  I was way over snow that year.

I should have read this post before I asked about the snow in todays....lol.  Hopefully it will melt away quickly and you won't get any more this year.  Do you ever put snow tires on your cars?  We have to switch our tires every winter and then in the spring.
