What's on your menu today (Wednesday) RNYers?

Hello everyone! How are you all? I am great! Mid week, we made it!! Busy getting ready for vacation!

Accountability: I was not hungry at all yesterday... I had my lunch food at dinner and no evening snack, weird how we have big pouch and small pouch days.

QOTD: Who owns the arm rest that sits between two seats, like on an airplane? On my commuter train into work the seats are in two's with one arm rest in between the two seats. Who gets the arm rest? The person who was there first? I never know and usually I don't use it. When I was big just the size of me overtook the arm rest and therefore it was "mine" but now its totally different, I have a ton of room on either side of me.

3.8 years post op RNY - maintenance (have lost 3.5 lbs since my weekend carb fest!)

B: boat loads of decaf with vanilla PP used as creamer

L: tuna/peppers/balsamic

S: 2 cheese strings + raspberries

D: 5oz of rotisserie chicken breast + bbq sauce

S: nothing

TOTALS: 858 calories, 130 protein, 22 carbs

V: patches are on (Iron, Multi, B12, VitD & Calcium)

L: decaf all day then water with SF cran in the evenings

E: 5km run after work, then taking the dogs out later in the evening, will run with Oliver and brisk walk with Amy, she is slowing down and doesn't like to "run"

Have an awesome day everyone, be fabulous!

Vacation for you soon - near me! Quick post as I am taking DH to Boston for an early neurologist appointment (traffic, yeah...).

QOTD: I think the first person who claims the armrest gets it! I used to notice that guys seemed to think it was their right to have it, but then I decided that it was sexist of them so I get my arm on there if I'm in the seat first (and defer to them if they were there first).

B: eggbeaters and cottage cheese (mixed together prior to cooking in the microwave so the cc is all melty)

L: tuna salad, pickles and cottage cheese

D: protein shake - I have an in-person support meeting so will be gone during normal dinner time

S: cheese sticks, yogurt

Thank you, ...ok so do you mix the tuna, pickles and cottage cheese too?...?

I make the tuna salad with light mayo and lots of chopped pickles and use "everything but the bagel" spice from TJs in it. I eat it with the cottage cheese separate (just my preference). I always enjoy breakfast and lunch and they are low cal and filling.

Guuuuuyysss! Haaalp!!!

i found out yesterday my time is up on the temp contract I was on when I got this job. I thought I'd have time to plan before negotiations started, but my boss ( who is awesome) want to start this morning! I have no idea if our expectations are in line at all! Being the office manager, I do have an advantage, in that I know what my predecessor made...but ugh. I hate this part!! Any advice is welcome!

went to an all star ball game last night. It was fun, but I'm getting old and the loud people around us got on my nerves hahah

qotd: I forget if I wrote about this, but I went to the movies a while back and a plus size woman sat beside me. After a while she apologized for taking the arm rest. And I could tell she was uncomfortable. But it made me sad because the tone of her apology was basically an apology for existing. And I knew the feeling all too well. Generally I say first dibs, but if someone seems to need it more than me, I don't hesitate. Also, what a strange feeling to not need the armrest, or to sit on the aisle, or take the crappy seats with no one next to me....

accountability: good. Had a burger with no bun at the game for dinner.

menu:

B:premier protein

L: Thai tuna with cream cheese and cucumber

D: steak

have a good one!

Since your boss is awesome, can he/she assist you in the nego process?

Sending you good thoughts as you negotiate today! You'll do great, I'm sure!

Good luck! I'm sure the negotiations will go well!

I'm sure it'll go great!! Be confident.

Good luck today!
