What's on your menu this Tuesday, RNYers?`
Hahaha! The cold doesn't bother her anyway! I'm doing a Frozen Sing-A-Long screening at the Library in December and I can't wait, it's going to be SO. MUCH. FUN.

The way you are exercising Bubbles,you will be a size 10 before you know. It is so hard to imagine yourself at that size when you first. My original goal weight was 160 because at 265 I couldn't imagine myself ever reaching that. Then I lowered my goal to 145 and finally got down to my current 120-123. You never ever know where your body will stop!
Karen! Even after losing 125+ pounds I can't ever imagine being as tiny as you!

Happy Surgiversary!! I still struggle with water intake but I did find that using a straw helps me. It was an accident the first time I used the straw and once I realized I wasn't full of air and going to die I just kept with it. I just make sure those easy sips are from zero calorie beverages! I keep a camelbak filled with water + zero calorie drops with me all day. I know I need to drink 3 of those to get in the minimal fluid. The hardest part for me is finding something I actually enjoy drinking. It's still challenging.
Time since surgery 2.5 months
B: Premier protein
S: quest bar
L: I might get a piece of fish at the market or ****tail shrimp
D: TJs Sausage since I totally didn't make them last night.
S: my trusty sugar free Popsicles
Hmmm....a straw might not be a bad idea, thanks Heather!
