Good Morning Botts:

I woke up this morning with a severe pain in my right hip area.  Took a 1/2 pain pill and took another nap.  I feel better now.  My eats for today are:

 

Breakfast:  Coffee & Miralax

Snack:  Toaster Pastry

Lunch:  Quest Brownie Bar

Snack:  Pineapple

Dinner:  Cheese Pizza

Snack:  Protein Pudding

 

I hope everybody has a great day and please remember those vits and fluids.

Hi Tess.  I'm keeping you in prayer that you continue to recover quickly.  God bless!

I didn't have a chance to work out until 10:00 last night, but I did it and went 40 minutes on the treadmill. Then I had a snack while I cooled off and tried to wind down. I turned around and walked again early this morning, so I'm a bit tired today but at least it's out of the way. Oh, and I was down another 3.8 pounds for a total of 17.5 pounds so far! I created my ticker but can't figure out how to get it into my signature (I could search this but anyone have any quick tips?)

Good evening, BOTT friends, 

 

Another crazy busy day, but got my bike workout in this evening.  Tess, and Angela...got the Unjury protein shake today and I love it!  It does taste just like chocolate milk when mixed with milk (I used what I had on hand, 1%, but will probably use it more with coffee and ice). 

Bike workout done this evening for 32 mins, covering 4.3 miles.  Today I ate:

 

B:  4 strips turkey bacon, 1/2 c eggbeaters, 1 slice ultra thin cheddar on sandwich thin

L:  protein shake made with 1/2 c 1% milk, 1 c fresh strawberries

S:  1 low fat string cheese, 1 c fresh strawberries

D:  6 ozs grilled sirloin with sauteed onions and mushrooms, 3/4 c mixed vegs

S:  protein shake made with 1 c 1% milk

 Goodnight friends :)
