What's On Your Tuesday Menu, RNYers?

That is  BIG DEAL, congrats on the awesome NSV!!!! 

Not silly at all! Congrats 

It was "frosty" here this morning!  bbbbrrrr  My 4 year old was loving all the frost every where!  Ahhh to be a kid again! lol

Once again I attempted to walk on the treadmill this morning while the boys watched cartoons in the livingroom.  And once again the 2 year old decided to come in and try and kill himself to get to Mommy.  ugh  I know I should drop them off at daycare, then come back and do my workouts.  But the sitter has been feeling under the weather so I am trying to give her a break.  But that just means me not getting my workouts in....which means my anxiety gets horrible and whatnot.

ETA: I just realized that I have lost 100 lbs since my surgery!!  133.2 since joining the Bariatric program, and 152.2 from my highest!!! 

Congrats on the weight loss!! 

As one toddler mom to another.....take the kids to the sitter. If she's sick and calls off fine keep them home. But giving her a break because she pulls on your heart strings seems a little like maybe she is taking advantage of your kind nature. You have to take care of you and stress relief is really important for us toddler/teenager moms! 

Oh trust me, she NEVER takes advantage, and is really really great.   She has only taken a few days off in the million years I have used her.  So I don't mind taking a few days to let her rest a bit.

But after that, BACK to dropping them off early!  hahaha

Way to go!

I'm in a major funk today.  The cupcakes I made for the charity bake sale look like a 4 year old made them (although they taste fine), my new pedals for my bike are missing in action by the usps, and my hubbie decided we are NOT going on a family cruise in February.  Ugh.  Not one of those things should have put me in this funk but for some reason I feel down.  Its also cold and drizzly here which never helps my mood.  The boy child has been a complete pain in the ass lately and I haven't been working out or eating like I should be.  I guess I start eating better and control what I can control and let the rest slide off.  Easier said than done... sorry for the bummer post.

Time since surgery: 16+ months

B: Chocolate cupcake (no frosting - I was feeling sorry for myself) and Coffee with cream

S: Eggo Breakfast Sammie

L: Unknown (going out with a friend)

S: Coffee with cream

D: Country style pork ribs

W/V: Started

E: I'm going to try to go to the pool but I may end up driving home and going to bed early... 

No totals.  Too many variables...

My like is a hug. Sorry it has been so rough lately for you. Sending lots of happy vibes your way

{{hugs}} You are right about controlling what we can control. It does make us feel better. Enjoy lunch with your friend!

Don't apologize! We are allowed a funk day here and there. Sending hugs to you and hope your day gets better. Maybe treat yourself to a special coffee?
