Monday, October 7th, Cardio & Cafe

Good Morning Botts:

It is a chilly start to the week here in Mississippi but I welcome it with open arms.  It will be a great evening to walk in the neighborhood.  I had a great Saturday with my family over at Ole Miss but had a terrible migraine on Sunday.  Spent the entire day in bed and missed my son-n-law's birthday....On the bright side I did not get a chance to eat birthday cake.  I maybe would have had a bite or two.  The top of my head is still sore this morning though.  My eats for today are:

Breakfast:  Coffee with Miralax

Snack:  Quest Protein Bar

Lunch:  Quest Protein Bar

Snack:  Vitatop Brownie

Dinner:  Roast Beef and Green Beans

Snack:  Pudding or NSA ice cream

I plan to walk 3 miles around the neighborhood for exercise.

Have a great Monday and remember those vits and fluids.

How was the audit? Hope everything was great!
I am still in Charleston - 3 day weekend wedding of my friend's daughter. Great people, wonderful and beautiful girl married really nice guy with great family... Such a joy to be as part of that..
Food wise I did OK...but my poor liver will need a break from all the wine and other alcohol. Lately I crave peanuts and ate probably a pound (at least - as my BF said) just this weekend. Otherwise - I ate cheese, chicken, meat and little bit veggies... I know better to eat any carbs or sugar. And since I am following FODMAP + low carb diet - I don't get too much gas or pains from gas. And my gas - when I have it - is no longer to is, it is more of a normal person ... So staying in a hotel wity my honey is not an issue. Peanuts helps with BM so my system is working great. I don't plan to weigh myself until a week from now... I don't want the enlarged liver to affect my weight... (Lol - my poor poor liver -- but I promised her a break) After all it was a polish-american wedding....
I could not post (?????) In Shiela Sunday post - but I wanted to tell her that she is doing so well.

I also want to wish Iris thee best for her during follow up and tghedbestvto her Mom. Iris - you are a busy 'iron' woman ...

Iris: the best for your Mom.( my tablet does not allow me to edit posts and correct misspelled words in any groups - not sure why)

After the weekend, I forgot all about the Audit.  It went great!  I was totally prepared and sent that auditor on there way with all my hard work in hand.  One down, One to go.  Glad you had a great weekend at the wedding and detox that poor liver of yours soon.

H.a.l.a ...thank you.  Sounds like you had a great time at the wedding.  I'm hooked on "Four Weddings" on TLC.  Those receptions (most of them) are great and seem like such fun, and your comments about the one you attended reminded me of the show.  Great job on the food...hope your liver forgives you

Good Morning!

Chilly day here in Wisconsin as well! I love fall so I am excited about this time of year :)  Today will be mentally and emotionally challenging, but I am taking a deep breath and relying on God to get me through the day.  The end of the day can not come soon enough.

Today I am starting on the 5 day pouch test again. So my day looks like:

B: Protein Drink - Unjury with Unsweetened Almond Milk

S: Protein Drink with Coffee and Unjury

L: Protein Drink 

S: Sugar Free Jello

D: Protein Drink

S: Sugar Free Jello

 

Forgot my vitamins this morning so I will take them when I get home.  Exercise, hopefully I will get some Insanity in this evening as well.  

Have a great day everyone!!

Melissa

Good luck to you today.

Good morning BOTTs.

Tess, I am glad your migraine is gone now...even the pain afterward is harsh...I know what you mean about still having a sore head.  As if you needed a reminder, huh?!  Feel better!

Hala, I'm glad you enjoyed the three day wedding, it sounds like you really had a good time.

I saw that Calibelle is starting the 5 day pouch test today and decided to join her, and any others who are doing it.  I have not done it before but I could use a re-set so that I can kick the dreaded carb cravings.

Breakfast: protein drink

Snack:  chicken broth

Lunch:  protein drink

Snack:  s/f hot apple cider

Dinner:  Mushroom soup

Snack:  protein drink

This is my plan for today.  I am strong enough to do this.  I can stick with this.  I choose to succeed.

I wish you all a wonderful Monday.

Gaby

 

 

Good luck to you too!  I hope all of you kick that carb craving to the road.  Have a great one!

Sounds like a killer migraine, Tess.  Never had one myself, but my daughter gets them a lot.  Hers always starts with an aura, and not a very pleasant aura as she loses her peripheral vision.  Not a good thing, especially when driving.  Hope you're feeling better today :)
