What's on your Monday Menu?
Good morning ~ Great weekend here! The house is decorated - I finally purged the 'why are we keeping this?' things and went really simple. Rob hung all the lights outside and when he turned them on last night there is s string out - he was so bummed but in no condition to go up on a ladder, lol. I have fasting bloodwork this morning and not being able to have coffee right now is killing me! Looking forward to a gallon afterwards. Today is real busy, plus errands to run on my lunch and after work. Looking forward to non-thanksgiving foods today!
QOTD - Grew up a night owl - became a morning person in the last 10+ years or so. I go to bed around 8 and I'm up at 4 or 5. I was thinking of getting up earlier since I am better in the am but that would just make me more tired in the evening. Now I'm wishing I had insomnia so I had more time to do all the things, lol. I understand how frustrating it is - Rob suffers terribly and it's rare that he feels fully rested.
Yesterday:
b- coffee, eggs w/avocado
l - 1/2 turkey sandwich
d- Turkey, gravy, GBC and stuffing
s- TJ's Dutch caramel cookie
e- 0
w - 0 - first time I didn't crave and almost cave in a long time
Today:
b - coffee x 100 after bloodwork, egg-wich
l - chicken, cauli stir fry rice
d- chicken fajitas - 2, 25 cal 0 net carb tortilla
s- grape tomatoes, cucumber
e- 0
w - Friday
Have a great day!

someone was talking about folded chips the other day (was it you, Amy? I can't remember). It's when potato chips are sort of folded over rather than lying more-or-less flat. Evidently the folded ones are so popular, you can now buy bags of just "folded chips" (err...at least I think so..). At any rate, fans of such chips swear they taste better.

Good Morning Queen JB and Menuers,
Good luck on that paper. Getting through something that does not pique your interest is crappy. I hope you find something in there that will motivate you. If not let your motivation be to get it over with.
Food, diet and any motivation went right out the door. I did get up Saturday and did a pound class and did mom duty. I was going to start hauling down the Christmas decorations but never felt motivated enough to do it. We went to the Outlet to return the Stella McCartney shoes I wanted but they rubbed my ankle and broke the skin open in less than 10 minutes wearing them around the house. They were super cute though. We did go to the casino a bit and the rest of the evening we did a Bar crawl and went to an open house at my friend's new place. I made it to church but yesterday was just raining and gray and Xfinity had free HBO Max Epix and Starz so I sat and watched movies all day. I saw Elvis, My life as a Rolling Stone (just Micks episode) Cyrano, Clifford the Big Red Dog, and Dog. I am hoping to get motivated to actually lose some weight. I would love to remove at least 12 lbs. Ron is going to pick up some rubber mating to put under the Elliptical because on the vinyl floor it just keeps moving and I end up in the plants. I hope that helps and gets me on it in the mornings.
QOTD: I usually head to bed at 10 asleep by 10:30 after removing makeup and doing my face moisturizing. I usually wake 2x to pee and I officially wake at 5:30 if I am motivated to exercise or 6:30 if I choose to just sleep.
Accountability: overboard.
TSS: 4 years 11 months 17 days 162.4 LBS, (Lowest 129.4)
B: Coffee with Coffee Mate SF chocolate caramel creamer
MS: Light and fit pumpkin Greek yogurt and berries
CB: Coffee with Coffee Mate SF chocolate caramel creamer
L: turkey salad and snack select
D: Crack chicken with pickles and beets.
Exercise: Barre Remix after work
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 week my friends.
Brightest Blessings.

HW 299 SW 290 CW 139 GW 140 2/08/2019 OPERATION: Surgical Hernia with excision of total surface area of 55 x 29 cm of abdominal skin.
QOTD- I used to be a night owl, but 40+ years of working days usually 7AM-3:30PM cured me of it. I use Lunesta and get maybe 6 hours a night at the best. I read until about 9:30PM and then I wake at 2, maybe sleep until 4, I can sometimes sleep until 5. I don't use an alarm clock, hate to be startled.
Both of my teams lost this weekend, really disappointing. The Ducks were eliminated from the PAC-12 Championship so I don't even know if they will be in a bowl game.
The duct work is done, but apparently they did something and there is no power to my dryer. And they couldn't come out yesterday, it's a good thing that I have a portable clothes line. I dried my clothes in my living room. They are supposed to come out today, it must be something in the electrical box, I flipped the breaker off and on and nothing changed. I thought it was odd that the light was out inside the dryer. Not happy with their work, I'm happy to have heat but not thrilled with the neatness of the work or routing or the ducts.
I need to get to work.
Have a great day everyone!
