What's on your Thursday Menu?

This is the one I use with minor tweaks.

Instead of water I use cold coffee (takes the shake to a whole different level)

I don't put cheese in it. Although cheese is allowed on this fast the less you have of it the better.
I used avocado oil because that's what I had on hand.

Thank you! Making it with coffee sounds delicious....also, I love your recipe is taking an existing recipe and changing most of it...that is me too!

Good Morning JB and Menuers,

The meme today is soo my husband. We don't even have kids and he would do that. I think he would draw Pop tarts over doughnuts though.

OK JB You got this we have all been praying so I hope he is going to answer. And I want the answer today because I am too impatient to wait any longer.

OK Not much going on here today. I did the Mise en place this morning for Garlicky Braised Beef shanks. Not sure if DH is going to assemble it or if I will do it tonight for tomorrows dinner. I am going to try to be very strict with my diet this weekend and have been telling my DH there will be no dinning out until we go on vacation.

QOTD: My Mom is 82 and since my Dad passed 14 years ago she has never wanted anything to do with another man. I can understand, they were together for 48 years. Honestly at 56 if DH was no longer in my life I think I'd be ok with going back to single. If it ain't him it ain't anyone. But since she is looking Al Pacino, Alan Arkin, Charles Grodin, and Jack Nicholson are all in there 80's may she can start with that list.

Accountability: Awful. Could not stop snacking. I bought a bag of Catalina Crunch Maple Waffle Keto Friendly cereal. 0 sugar 11g Protein and 9 g a fiber. It did fill me up but when I got home from bible study I also snacked on SF pudding and Greek yogurt and peanuts. I just could not get satisficed.

SS: 3 years 8 Months 3 days:136.2 (Lowest 129.4)

B: Coffee with SF CM Chocolate Caramel creamer

MS: Light and Fit Greek Toasted Marshmallow yogurt, and berries,

CB: Coffee with SF CM Chocolate Caramel creamer

L. Zucchini lasagna and a smoked chicken wing.

D: Either Garlicky Braised Beef shanks or a bun less cheese burger with a cucumber tomato salad

Exercise: 3.1 mile run (Done)

Water and vitamins: On track. I take a Bariatric Advantage Ultra multi w/iron I use bariatric advantage Calcium chews and 500mg of Magnesium. sublingual B12 3x a week

Everybody Have a great day.

Brightest Blessings.

Chrissy

QOTD: Absolutely.

happy 7th Surgiversary, Kelly

So cool. I wish I was there. I love the wildlife but nothing like seeing a bear in the wild doing bear things. Has he caught more fish than you? Hmmmm

Awww thanks!!

When I visited Canada I saw three black bear butts! Seems you had a better view in Alaska!

hey yall

yesterday we drove to TN early both for dr appt. I saw NP for bariatric center. Lost 3 more pounds from last time which was 2 months ago. so thats a plus, i actually had not weighed in 11 days so thought i had gained. im finally finally at a plae where I'm not gaining or having anxiety about gaining. But i still want to lose another 15-25 pounds, then maybe splurge for skin surgery.

dentist yesterday, had a giant hole in a filling from a crack and they filled it but had to numb me all up at 2pm and i was still numb before bed. i had a shake and yogurt last night. was so happy they worked me in when i was in town to get this resolved.

QOTD: I would be single and date around I think. I would sell this barn house if not sold already and move closer to town?

coffee, coffee

food dependent on if i can chew.

shake

water

have veggies i need to eat and tuna/egg whites

Good morning~ Knock em' dead on your interview today, JB - you got this girl!! Funny - before we moved recently, I was so over WFH. I appreciated the separation and even the commute but now I just want to stay home! Not all the time, but my 2 WFH days would be golden. Oh well... the grass is always greener...

Today is a super busy day - meetings for new responsibilities and my first with my new Employee Association. Looking forward to it because it's so different from the Big Unit EA I was in before. Having lunch with my kiddo also.

QOTD - Hell no, I mean, WHY? I get that people get lonely, but I can't imagine starting over at 80. My pets will keep me company! Your friend reminds me of a character from 'You've Got Mail' played by Jean Stapleton. What a life!!!!

I am 73 and if my boyfriend were no longer in my life, I would be dating at 73, 83, or 93. I have plenty of family members and friends to do things with, but still want that one special person in my life who shares a special bond.

As you get older, age difference becomes less and less of an issue. In my 60's I dated men in their 40's, 50's, 60's, 70's and 80's who could have been good partners for me.

I do like living alone and not having to take care of another person or adjust to their schedule and needs. I met my husband when I was 18, married at 21, and was widowed at 61. I told him I would not take a million dollars for him and would not give one dollar for a replacement. I really do not want another husband, but believe I will always want a boyfriend.
