What are you eating/doing this Wednesday?
Hello, hope all is well with everyone today!
Today is my 7th day of pre-surgery dieting, and in terms of hunger/cravings it's going much easier than I had expected. Maybe I'm over the hump. Plus the external motivation helps a lot!
QOTD: My 7 yr old nephew is a big reader, and he loves piling lots of pillows and cushions on his bed. Whenever he's having a "quiet time" or reading before bed, he'll stretch out on the pillows with a book and say "Ahhhh, this is the life." It cracks me up every time, and reminds me to notice and enjoy the simple pleasures of life.
Breakfast: 3/4 cup cottage cheese, 1/2 cup fresh cherries
Lunch: 3oz chicken breast, 1 cup cucumber slices, 1 rye Wasa cracker, 1 tbsp olive oil mayo, bit of mustard
Dinner: 3oz chicken breast or lean pork, 1/2 cup red peppers, 1 rye Wasa cracker, 1 tbsp almond butter
Snack: 3oz chicken breast, 1 cup salad green, 1 rye Wasa cracker, 1 tbsp olive oil may, bit of mustard

That would crack me up too. I almost spit out my coffee when I read that.
DH and I used to go to a patio to listen to live music. There was a 12 year old who used to sing about "My woman done me wrong", lol.
