What's on your Monday Menu?

Morning! Oh crap oh crap oh crap! I slept until 4:50am this morning! This is unheard of... No idea why! But I am supposed to be on the road by 5:30am so I gotta make this a drive-by! Hope you had a fab weekend! Mine was perfect :)

QOTD: What color is your house and front door? I love it when houses have unexpected brightly colored front doors. We have white cape-style house with dark smoke blue colored shutters and door. I think it would look really cute if we painted the door bright RED, but I can't seem to convince Grim this is a good idea...

Today:

B: Protein Coffee & Egg Bite

S: Cheese Whisps

L: Insides of taco & black beans

D: Insides of taco & black beans

Good Monday morning!

QJB - love the new avatar and the new screen name, very fitting. I am up because I haven't gone to bed yet, while you are up and ready to go to work.

Well, my eggfast last week was successful. I lost 1.4 lbs. It might not seem much but for somebody who is used to lose 2-4 oz a week 1.4lbs was a great surprise. So I decided to do another 5 days of eggfast this week. Hoping for another successful loss to get me to 145 or below that.

Kelly - I finally found the ratio coconut. Had to go to two different targets, but I was on a mission. Wow, so very yum. Bought 5 of them.

Christina - were your ears ringing around 8:00 pm your time last night? I was thinking of you, we were at one of our favorite restaurants which happens to be vegetarian. I ordered their special of the day ... "not" chicken enchiladas with the green sauce. Don't know why but I thought of you and thought if Christina ever comes here I need to bring her to this restaurant. It's a very low key restaurant but in our opinion the best vegetarian restaurant in town. Consider yourself invited.

QOTD: the house color is pink sand (kinda beachy) and the front door is white. I want a red door too but it won't go with our house. When we update the door it will be mostly glass.

My meals yesterday

• B: coffee + barebells bar
• L: ratio yogurt (coconut)
• S:
• D: "not" chicken enchiladas
• E: Rest Day

Happy start of the week.

I have been having trouble finding barebells at TJs, I just ordered the hazelnut ones and the cookie dough ones from their US supplier.

I did the same with the caramel one. In my area TJ now has the white chocolate one, which is yum.

Yay! I got a few more yesterday.

I'll pick some up the next time I'm at the store, too. I got the lime one a few weeks ago but wasn't crazy about it, but I'll try some of the other flavors. I have a (supposedly genetic) aversion to bitterness, so maybe that was the deal with the lime..

Sounds amazing! Definitely sounds like something RIGHT up my alley!

You would love this place.

hi all

sat was errands for me and donated 1/2 a trunk of stuff to thrift store. then i accidently bought 1/2 trunk load to replace it but it was a business purchase. there were some amazing shoes, vintage stuff. belts and kids toys. they are fun to figure out...

sunday was supposed to be minnies training but it's 38-40 min one way and i just wasn't feeling it. instead we went to walmart, starbucks and i talked DH into Moe's. he had never been, then it started raining and he got crabby which made me crabby.

QOTD: currently it is big tan metal pole barn. next project on the horizon is to paint it white with brown shutters (it has a brown roof) and add cedar shakes to the front to rustic it out. then we will sell it in another year or so and do something else,

food will be:

b: yogurt pie and protein ball

coffee water

l: tuna with lots of egg whites

d: pork loin in crock pot

s: not sure

Happy Monday everyone! Hope everyone has a great week ahead.

I ate like an asshole this weekend, including picking up a box of chocolate covered nutter butters. Fortunately, they were crappy and I threw then away. Eye hunger is real; if I want a cookie, I usually grab ONE from the bakery section -- limited offerings. This weekend I went down the cookie aisle and all the options sucked me in. At least I tossed them when I realized they weren't worth the calories and RH. I did get in two very good workouts plus met my step sister for manicures and caught up, so a good weekend overall.

QOTD - Grey with a red door. QJB - Ever since I visited Taos Pueblo in the 90s, I've wanted a blue door. They use them to keep the bad spirits from crossing the threshold which I like. Many different shades but mostly a turquoise-y blue. Google Taos Pueblo and you'll see some examples.

menu today is

English muffin with left over sausage patty

Italian beef X 2

coffee plus half and half X 3

Have a fantastic day everyone!
