Happy Hump Day Botts:

I had all these grand plans of getting caught up at work while my boss was away on a business trip but nooooo, I am doing his job and mine.  Silly me, what was I thinking.  We are going back in the deep freeze by Friday.  Our high today will be 33 degrees and high on Friday will be 22 degrees with snow likely.  Love, love, love this winter weather but I am so glad that we are not dealing with what the people up North are dealing with.  My heart goes out to all of you up there.  My eats for today are:

Breakfast:  Coffee & Miralax

Snack:  Quest Protein Bar

Lunch:  Wendy's Chili

Snack:  Fiber One Bar

Dinner:  Meatball Soup (lots of veggies and a few meatballs)

Snack:  Vitatop

Exercise:  Bike

I hope everybody has a great hump day and remembers to take their vits and drink their fluids too!

It started snowing here about 4pm and when I left work at 5pm we already had about 3 inches.  Shortly after the snow turned to sleet and that continued throughout the evening.  Yucky weather.

EATS

Early Morning:  2 cups coffee w/SF hazelnut creamer

B:  Quest Protein Bar, banana

S:  none

L:  Deli Ham & Pepper Jack on Whole Wheat, apple

S:  none

D:  Deli turkey & Pepper Jack on Whole Wheat, 1oz tortilla chips w/salsa

S:  3 Keebler coconut dream cookies

TOTALS:   1373 calories, 80g Protein 

WEIGHT:  Pre-Op: 302, Current: 190 (Height:  5’ 7”)

I hope you did not have to go back to work in that mess.  If you did, I wish you a safe trip back home this evening.

Good morning BOTTs.

I'm glad it's Hump Day...c'mon weekend. 

Wendy's chili sounds good today, Tess.  I may have to venture out...I keep thinking about your suggestion of dumping it on a side salad and making it a "taco salad"...that just sounds delicious.

Breakfast:  2 hard boiled eggs and 1 large strawberry

Snack:  greek yogurt

Lunch:  tuna stuffed tomato

Snack:  1 big strawberry & about 1/4 cup of blueberries

Dinner:  Wendy's chili over a side salad!!! 

Snack:  string cheese and later SF hot chocolate

Have a good day, all, and thank you for the kind words about the loss of my sweet friend.

Going for a walk at lunch time.

I did not get my Wendy's Chili for lunch.  I had to travel today to visit several subcontractors and a client out of town but my sweet son-n-law her lives in one of those towns, fixed me a "small" bacon cheeseburger.  I know, I know, but it was delicious!  I will be having a protein bar for dinner.

I am looking forward to my dinner tonight!!!  Wendy's it is Plus...no cooking!!!! 

You will have to make a point to do it soon, too. 

Have a good night.

Hump Day !!   Cold, cold, cold here....negative digits with wind chill......about 7* when I got up this morning and the high is supposed to be in the 20's !  Wind is what is making it bad.  It might warm into the 40's by the weekend.  I hope so !

my vits and water are already in AND I am up to 8,328 steps right now....WooHoo !!    Maybe I will see 10,000 steps today !!  I like to feel my fitbit do a little dance on my wrist !!  😄

How cool!  I don't know if I can set my app to buzz when it hits 10,000 steps or not but it would be awesome if it could.

Great job on the steps!!!!!!!!!!!  I went for (what I thought was!) a super long walk today...came back to work I checked my Pacer app and it was only up to just under 6,000 steps.  I walked fast and hard too.  I think I need to take tiny steps!!!
