Topic: RE: Merry Christmas Eve, Menuers!

I don't know what I thought I'd be getting sleep and not have time to post! LOL

Merry Christmas everyone and the start Hanukkah tomorrow the 26th.

Christmas Eve went ok. We hit up Sam's super early and it wasn't busy at all. Walmart also wasn't too bad either. By the time we left the lot was nearly two thirds full. Was glad to get that done with. We mainly ent for jalapeños, more bacon and lil smokies. We decided to do bacon wrapped smokies. I am most excited for those and the poppers. I will be doing one with peanut butter. My mom likely wont try one. I told her she likes peanut sauce but she thinks it sounds revolting.

i got the orange brownies and brownies done, the meat and cheese cut up for the tray. We bought cookies and a very small pecan pie for my mom and brother. I am glad we are doing easier things and small things. My pouch has been very picky about the volume of food. So I can have a small amount and still enjoy the meal. Dessert for me will be the orange blonde brownies if I have room for a small piece.

sorry for blabbing. I've been a bit hyper for a few days now.

QOTD: have you ever put up more than one tree for Christmas?

our record is 6 in the house(more outside). It was the Christmas after my grandma and uncle had died. I think my mom did it as a distraction. They were beautiful trees that year.



Merry Christmas everyone!

Happy holidays to all. Special thanks to everyone for the support and accountability. Having a place to share struggles really helps keep my head in a better place. I wish you all joy and happiness.

QOTD: I once had a professor hand out blue books for an exam, and write the tests only question on the board. It said "What else do you know?" We had 50 minutes -- Go! So, I request -- ask and answer your own holiday question.

Merry and happy, y'all!

Good morning, Chrissy & team:

Today is the last day in the office for 2024. I am driving DD to the airport tonight, so we are both working in the Chicago office today.

We had a great weekend, CrossFit holiday party on Friday night, football on Saturday, dinner with DD last night. And we got out to see the Taylor Swift decorated house on Sunday afternoon.

I have some work to do, but did bring a book in case I need it while waiting to drive DD to the airport this evening. I went to morning gym class so tonight should be quiet.

QOTD: being able to join in fun things like reindeer runs.

Breakfast: Bagel

Lunch: steak salad

Dinner: leftover tenderloin from yesterday.

Have a great day, all!

Good morning Menuer's

I am up bright and early because I had a scam scare yesterday. I figured it out pretty quickly, so I financially had lost nothing. I did have to change the phone number. I am pissed more at myself. It was the hustle and bustle of the holiday, and I was not paying attention. The next couple months should be fun figuring out everything I can't log into because I need 2 step verification. Of course, everything running through my head is not allowing me to sleep. Grrrrrr. But other than that, it was a very nice weekend. I am a big fan of Shrimp and Grits, and I was able to finally get to the local distillery Friday night and get some. They have an award-winning chef, and this dish is only offered on Friday. Blew me away. There was a red sauce not just cheesy grits. I may be hitting this every other Friday it was that good. I did go to the gym Saturday for a Bike class and then Crazy 8. I really worked it, I plan on doing more cycle in the new year, meaning more than just once a week. We shall see.

QOTD: What NSV's come to mind when you think of the holidays. Mine is not waking up January 1 in tears because of all the weight I gained over the holiday. I have been able to be very mindful of what I put in and moderation is a much easier task.

Accountability: I did sub a few meals for ****tails and maybe a few Christmas cookies.

TSS: 7 years 0-months 11-days 165.2 Lowest (129.4)

B: Coffee with SF Coffee-Mate Chocolate Caramel creamer

MS: Friendly Farms super zero Mixed berry Geek yogurt, Red chicken chili

CB: Coffee with SF Coffee-Mate Chocolate Caramel creamer

L: white Chicken Chili and clementines

D: Pizza Party with family. We shall see my options.

Exercise: Dog walking

Water and Vitamins: On track. I take a Bariatric Advantage Ultra multi w/iron I use bariatric advantage Calcium chews and 500mg of Magnesium. I also use MiraLAX and fiber in my first coffee of the day.

Have a great holiday my friends.

Brightest blessings

Chrissy

I can no longer tolerate sugar and eat very little of it. It makes me sick.
