My doc already got me on extra B6 and unisom. I am feeling much better than I was, but not quite out of the woods. I’m 11 weeks now so I’m hoping I’ll be fairly back to normal in the next two weeks!

I am not functioning at a high level this month, I remembered I had some baby potatoes rotting in the pantry so I picked out the good ones and roasted them up last night and I have a fistful of those for my lunch. Well, more than a fistful. I was worried plain roasted potatoes weren't going to be lunch enough, so I also have a packet of ranch seasoning powder. This is better than I've been doing.

Christopher's is fantastic. I feel your pain, I used to go there at least once a week.

Good luck!

Been there. It’s rough! Hope things ease up for you and you’re in the second trimester soon! If you haven’t tried it already, B6 is amazing for nausea. It saved me during my pregnancy.

My blood pressure is back on the rise so I think i'm going to switch back to OMAD (one meal a day) intermittent fasting. I did it last spring/summer and lost 30 pounds in three months. But more importantly, my blood pressure dropped from almost 190/95 to 120/75 in that time. I'm in my early 40's and in decent shape, but I can't keep going on like this.

That being said, I think my one meal today will be a chicken breast, salmon filet, big side of spinach, a fried egg or two, and a hefty protein shake. That oughta carry me for a good 23 hours.

Lunch is left over lasagna soup that my wife made last night. She found a new recipe on the gram and we tried it out. 10/10 would recommend. Super easy and delicious. I'm sure it'll be even better today, much like chili is better the next day.

Let us know how it goes! Go get 'em!

What a relief this is. The Senate firewall was looking mighty thin going into the next general election, esp with all the spending that will be done by the GOP to flip vulnerable seats like Hashmi in SD-10. This makes me feel a little better for a little while.

Adding golden raisins makes me think of Christopher's Runaway Gourmay. Their chicken salad is fantastic.

I got a pack of hard boiled eggs and a protein bar to get me through lunch. Just enough so that I don’t get hangry at work.

Free lunch today at the office. No idea what it is, but hopefully something good (and vegetarian friendly)

You got this!

Dinner leftovers for lunch: pork roast, mashed potatoes, and green beans

My employers dog was super happy to see me this morning, bouncing at the door when I walked in. So I think it'll be a good day even though it's really gray.

Still giddy over being OP for the first time.

As for my own lunch, tbd. Eating oatmeal right now and I’m taking a late lunch for a hair appointment (I’ve had grays since I was 18… ugh), then back to the office! I’m an awfully picky eater with anxiety-induced stomach issues so I have a hard time meal prepping just to not be able to stomach anything the next day.

Early dentist appointment and I slept terrrrrribly last night. Looking forward to coffee with a friend after the dentist though. A shiny spot in an otherwise crappy morning.

Please share!

Made a hodgepodge pizza last night (threw all my leftover veggies onto it). So I’ll be eating that and watching the last episode of Better Call Saul for lunch.

Our office is moving to Innsbrook and that is the one thing I will miss the most - being close to Christopher's. I love their tuna salad.

Have been having some decent luck with the bargain meat bin at Publix and Kroger. Mostly dark meat chicken that’ll be good to braise or throw into a curry. Usually near the expiry, but I’ve generally found that those dates are meaningless for meat that’s typically frozen solid forever. I saw $9.99 bag of Clementines the other day and almost fainted… they’re $5 less at Aldi!!!!!

Such an easy, tasty meal. I do poached or leftover chicken, salt/pepper/lil paprika/lil turmeric/curry powder, raisins, mayo and balsamic vinegar. Sometimes add some nuts if I’m feeling fancy. Always delicious.

I'll try to remember!

I thoroughly enjoyed M3GAN and would love a post-edibles review of it after you see it!

Nothing exciting for lunch today, leftovers from last night's dinner.

Tomorrow probably similar. But Friday, just before he goes back to college, my son and I are going to Eazzyburger for lunch.
