What's on your Wednesday Menu, RNYers?

Happy Hump Day! I loved reading everyone's milestones yesterday! Amazing! Sorry I haven't had time to respond. This job is officially kicking my ass. I will get through it, of course, but the next few weeks are definitely going to test my patience and stamina. But on to lighter and happier things:

Ok, so my cats actually do complain a little bit, but not like I would (unless every night was taco night, of course!).

QOTD: If you had a million dollars to give to just one charity or non-profit organization, which one would you give it to?

For the last few years I have always wanted to start my own non-profit foundation that gives money for nice furniture and facilities upgrades to urban schools. I think it is so unfair that some kids have to learn in falling down, leaking, buildings with 50 year old desks and chairs, and walls that haven't been painted in decades.

hi all- DH got up with the dogs then tripped over something in the quasi dark and then kicked it which woke me right up. decided since im having a strange compressed day I would just get up and work. 2 hours earlier than usual.

so i took the practice test last night 4 hours long and didn't score well which put me in a mood. I didn't study anymore after that. i had distractions last night that I will not have friday but still don't get why i scored low. checking back over the terms and writing down what to study today and tomm. this test is hard :(

food pretty much on point but I decided to eat 300- calories of nuts/butter last night. Technically I didn't go over calories and needed the fat also. so all in all, ok. I have not weighed yet today. will do later.

QOTD: probably animal rescue.

Food plan today is up in the air since I will be 1.5 hours away at dr appt. then also have to work so we will see- i thnk i will just bring gym clothes with me- debating on going today. i feel like it will help me mentally but at the same time- should be studying?? not sure on that- open for thoughts.

coffee

probably quest chips

coffee

water

It's so stressful taking tests for work! Maybe get your workout in and take a break today, with focus on studying some key areas tomorrow and getting rest before the test on Friday? Good luck!!

great idea- no use in burning myself out more. Plus i need the gym to relax also.

I vote for gym time. Exercise is great for stress relief and helps with focus which is what any testtaker needs!

I hope you feel better about your upcoming test. I'd need the workout to rest my brain and de stress.

Swimming always helps to relax me. Good luck with your test!

So glad it?s wednesday, the end of the week is in sight!

Its hard to get back into the ?new? routine isn?t it? It will all fall into place, eventually!!

Qotd - Donors Choose is an interesting organization that I learned about last year. It would be cool to fund all the projects in my area!

accountability - on track, even with fluids!

B - 2 oz mozzarella

s - coffee + premiere X2

l - yoplait

D - 2 oz beef jerky

570 calories, 70 protein, 19 carbs

good morning! Quick post today as I'm already waking up late. I've been doing that a lot--oversleeping my alarm. Just so tired lately and I'm not sure what my deal is!

Qotd: I think I'd want to fund community gardens. I've always thought how cool it would be to have a huge garden park where people can come in and pick their own healthy food when they are in need. There's a local greenhouse that does something like this, but it's more for education and teaching people how to garden rather than helping needy families. I could have volunteers for planting and weeding and such.

breakfast: coffee with premier

lunch: tuna creations packet, on a bed of spinach

snack: string cheese, pepper slices with habenero yogurt dip (SO GOOD)

dinner: out with in-laws, not sure where yet but I'm hoping for steak :)

Love your community gardens idea!
