What's on your Thursday Menu?

I keep bacon grease in a coffee mug on the counter. I do check it before I use it because it has gone rancid before. I am a butter out. I got the cutest butter dish at Walmart last year and it has a lid. Now I do not accidently drop stuff in it.

BTW - I bought that butter di****hanks!

Good Morning Queen JB and Menuers,

Glad you're up and about and hopefully feeling a little better. Your white-knuckle comment reminds me of something a wise man once said. Larry the Cable Guy on his show only in America was at Emily Post home and he said I quote "You can crack your knuckles but don't knuckle your crack."

I been to Sam's club already because I needed slider buns for a potluck here tomorrow. I did all my Christmas shopping during lunch yesterday and got it all wrapped. I also got the Christmas dinner cheesecake done. I am taking it easy and enjoy all the celebrations moving forward. Between now and Christmas I have 5 Christmas gatherings to attend. Plus a church service. Just hoping to avoid the Vid so I can still have my surgery on Wednesday.

QOTD: Tomorrow is supposed to be Freezing rain and change to snow at some point.

Accountability: I was gifted Anise Pizzelles and had to try them since Ron don't let me use Anise when I make them.

SS: 5 years 11 days 158.8 Lowest (129.4)

B: Coffee with Coffee Mate SF chocolate caramel creamer

MS: Light and Fit Creme Brulee Greek yogurt and berries

CB: Coffee with Coffee Mate SF chocolate caramel creamer

L: egg wrap and a snack select

D: Maybe RGF taco or out to eat.

Exercise: Nope

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 day my friends.

Brightest Blessings.

Chrissy

I have been known to make the anise pizzelles into sandwich cookies with NSA reddiwhip:-)

Are you all ready for your surgery?

Yes. I didn't have to do anything but quit taking my vitamins and scrub my hands with Hibicleanse. No big deal. It will take less than an hour I'm counting this as vacation not surgery.

I hope it's a smooth surgery and that your recovery is uneventful.

QJB-So glad you are feeling better today. Sorry about your lost day when you have been so busy. Drive carefully to your cookie event.

Today is my Friday before Christmas. I will need to pack for my trip and get the presents into the truck. Of course, my winter clothes need to be in the car "just in case" we are somehow stranded in the cold. Not much planned except for some work-related meetings and paperwork.

QOTD: Cold, cold, cold here. We have had snow and icy roads. I am hoping the roads will be adequately maintained tomorrow for our drive. The forecast is for it to warm up a bit from -6 today to mid-30's by Saturday. Yay! I am a cold wimp anymore.

Accountability: Doing good here.

B: Triple zero greek yogurt, keto granola, berries, cold brew with half n half

L: Asian chicken salad with light sesame ginger dressing

D: Berry Salad with chicken light poppy seed dressing

S: 4 squares sf chocolate, protein frosty

E: 60 min hot yoga

Have a great Thursday, be safe out on the roads and cold weather.

Good afternoon JB and menu Folks.

Down .6 lb from yesterday. Tracking is spot on. Lower calories is working without the introduction of heavy workouts. I have been reviewing data from MFP and have decided to update my goal to 210 lbs, I seem to have been hovering at that weight and above since 2017. Once I am able to reach and maintain 210, I will adjust goal again. I am starting this round of getting my**** together bytracking and lowering calories, without exercise to offset any bad choices. Not sure of this is right or wrong, but worth a try.

QOTD - our weather will be colder than the seasonal norm, but no where near Late January/February weather.

B - Two Har Boiled eggs

MS - Quest bar

L - Work luncheon, Deviled eggs, swedish meatballs, Tuna salad, cheese, Pepperoni, salami'

2 small bite size brownies

D - Unsure as we are heading to Burlington after work to finish shopping.

Stay healthy my friends, Mike

Are you working out at all? I had rotator cuff surgery last year and was forbidden to exercise. I am really having a hard time getting back in the groove.
