Never thought of freezing them...Fun! Red grapes, a staple in our refrigerator. Just had some for lunch. Great minds think alike. Haha.

Ok, going off on a tangent from food here, but I have to share my one and only celebrity encounter myself. 10 years ago, we got to meet Alicia Keyes backstage when she was in town for a concert. The Kid was sooooo upset she didnt get to go to the concert (she was 5!) because her fave song at the time was "No One", so she basically had a meltdown when she found out we met her AND had a picture with her....so I photo-shopped her into it, lol. Over the years, I think she convinced herself she was actually there now. 🤣

Adorable! Alicia Keyes is timeless... Love her current commercial.

A UW grad!!!! It's a cheesehead. We love when you come to town for Penn State football, that is. My hometown is State College, PA. I understand Madison is a beautiful college town, as well. I have always wanted to visit. And, I have yet to meet a cheese product I didn't love! A cheeseburger in your honor. ;]

Crack me up. I came up with the name Cheeseburgh when we were living in Pittsburgh *Squirrel Hill, 10 years ago. We lived there about 7 years. It’s my Wisconsin/Pittsburgh combo. I never made it to State College but my husband went there a lot for work.

I was born and raised in Madison and it is a great place, especially if you love lakes. Odd fact about me: I HATE cheese unless it is melted mozzarella on pizza.

Mushrooms with soy cream and flat bread. Quick and easy.

food for today. Working the late shift plus on-call until 8 in the morning so if things are going bad I might not be home again until Friday afternoon should I decide to sleep at the hospital. Anyway, truckload of food because of this:

Chestnuts as a muesli base (got this idea from the freeletics nutrition app a while ago and it tastes awesome), one portion with pear as suggested in the app, one with banana. Sandwiches with veg cold cuts and a mango-papaya-curry spread. Tomatoes.

BFF came by yesterday to "join" us for dinner (we sat on the porch, she stayed on the driveway, lol).

I made her and the fam loaded noodle bowls (udon, lobster balls, pork & leek dumplings, carrots, edamame, corn & green onions in broth)

...I had a modified version for myself with shiratake noodles & grilled chicken:

I'll park on your driveway any day or even across the street! ms.sss, these dinners look delicious, colorful and wonderful... Fit for royalty! We did edamame, too, last night. Only we ordered out from our favorite Thai Lotus restaurant. Your lobster balls look amazing! You didn't have one!? Your BFF struck gold.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
