What's On Your Monday Menu, RNYers?
Good Morning all! How was everyone's weekend? Mine was awful and wonderful and everything in between. Here's a little piece from the Buffalo News about my dear friend. He really was a great man and I still can't believe he's gone.

OK, moving forward... QOTD! As suggested by Pokemom, what's your favorite children's book? Like, a book that you loved when you were a kid. I have so many. SO MANY. LOL However, the one that stands out the most is actually a single volume of a children's encyclopedia printed in the 1950s called Childcraft. It used to belong to my mother and this particular volume (2, I think) had folk tales and poems and the illustrations were so beautiful. I can still recite a few of the poems to this day. I wonder if my Dad still has the book. Probably. He doesn't get rid of anything. HA!
Obvs, my food/drink intake these last few days has been sub-par at best. I've not necessarily been eating crap, just not eating enough. And drinking too much. So, for as bare as my cupboard is, I begin anew today with an OK menu. I need to grocery shop. LOL
Time since surgery: 20+ months
B: FF ricotta with SF triple berry preserves and 6 cinnamon raisin bagel chips
S: 2 reduced fat cheese sticks
L: ham salad on whole grain toast
D: grilled chicken breast with a slice of sharp cheddar melted on top
TOTALS: Cals: 925 Protein: 91 Carbs: 62 Fat: 37
Have a great day!

Good morning everyone. Grim and I decided to hijack this thread a little today and make an announcement! As I am sure you can all figure out from reading his posts, Grim is a pretty great guy--smart, funny, kind and generous. And somehow I am lucky enough to be dating him in real life! Here are a few pics from our recent adventures together.
Also, an added benefit from dating Grim...? I am dropping weight like it's my job. I'm 2 pounds away from the low goal that my surgeon told me it would take another year to reach. So if you are in a stall, I suggest dropping your current SO and start dating a fellow Bypasser ;) #datingaham
B: Fit Frappe Espresso
S: almonds and cheese stick
L: leftover ½ cheeseburger
S: hb egg
D: ??

OMG! Best thread hijack ever! I thought there were an awful lot of "outings" going on recently! I got to meet Mr. Hag in person and I agree, you got the BEST of 'em! I am so so so thrilled! And the next time he drives down to DC to visit his brother, you have to come along so I can meet you too! YAY! This gives me such a huge smile!!!
