What's on your Tuesday Menu, RNYers?

Those donuts are evil!

Wow, talk about temptations.

Great willpower to stay away from them when they are sitting there on your chair!!

Good morning!! I have a surprise day off too!! The refrigerator at my work decided to die. The part won't be in until Friday. I couldn't be more thrilled. I have been feeling really burned out lately and I am going to savor my extra day off. I have to go in for an hour or two and take care of some book work. I am going to grab a few last minute things for Thanksgiving and then I am going to come home and clean. I always underestimate the destruction that doing a project has on a house.

QOTD- Nope.

Accountability- Good!

Food for today-

2 cups of black coffee, miralax

1 eggs, 3 oz black forest ham

Kale apple salad with chicken

Halibut with broccoli

Have a great day everyone!

You get off cause the refrigerator is on the fritz? Wow crazy. My company had us work and we had no water for 2 days. How about that bathroom situation.

I manage a non profit meal site for seniors. We have to have refrigeration to operate since we cook food.

I can't believe your company had you work with no water.

That's a great thing you do for seniors I can't wait to retire for all the obvious reasons but I think I'd like to volunteer and feed people . I love cooking for crowds and don't mind doing dishes.
I sale medical supplies and we fill people's monthly Medicare orders and they are time sensitive that is why we could not close.

G'morning JB & Menu family,

That was me yesterday. After a whole week of liquid diet I lost a total of....drum rolls please....ONE pound! One stinking lb! When I came back from Italy I had gained a couple of lbs due to chocolate and other sweets, but I didn't panic. I knew why and as long as I was under 145 I was OK. I figured I'd lose it before the end of the year. Then the liquid diet happened and I thought heck I'd lose all 4 lbs in a week with liquid diet. But nooooo, only a single sad lb. Oh well!

On the good news front the woman I was dieting with had her surgery yesterday. She texted after she came out and was feeling good. Sip sip walk walk is her mantra. I think she will do well. I told her to join the OH but she seems too shy to do that.

QOTD: yes to Black Friday shopping, but from the comfort of my home. I hate fighting crowds at the malls or outlets. My kids have given me their Xmas lists so I'm all ready for shopping on Friday.

Advice to people who come off a liquid diet; if you are upset at the scale do not take your revenge out on yourself. I was missing my Costco egg bites so after 8 days of liquid diet and not having lost much, I devoured the egg bites. Not a good decision. I paid for it for the rest of the day.

My meals yesterday:

B: egg bites

L: skipped because my stomach couldn't handle food

S: 1/2 Fage yogurt

D: Miso soup with cheese whisp in it (if you let it sit for 30 seconds, the cheese melts and it's almost like french onion soup - very yum)

• Fage yogurt
• SF jello
• Miso soup

Have a great Tue, everybody!

OMG Sheila I would cut someone! I am sorry it was only 1 lb. I think that was INCREDIBLY nice of you to do a liquid diet for that woman. You are clearly much nicer than I am!

I hate when I eat something and it doesn't sit well. The foamies is always the indicator for me. Sometimes I make myself expel it because I can't stand to feel like that for hours...

Haven't had the foamies in a while, but I was stuck, in a big way. Like my stomach was saying "uh-oh, no solid food, we don't like that"!
