What's on your Wednesday Menu?
on 3/6/24 4:29 am - Amarillo, TX
Mornin y'all.
I've got fasting blood work this morning then my nephew has a program at schoo we're going to go to. My pain level is sky high so I'm hoping to be able to come home after that. I'm also incredibly groggy.
QOTD: hmmm in a warm cabin on a snowy mountain side with no where I need to bear
Breakfast will be a protein bar and lunch will be pork butt tacos.

Happy Hump Day Peeps. JB you are rocking the back to work life.
Today is day one on Phentermine. Once a day for 30 days and the doctor wants me to check in with her in three weeks to see how I'm doing and if she is going to add in the Topiramate. I did let a co-worker know just in case I have some bizarre reaction and die. It's been 30mins so far so good.
QOTD: Reality wise Scotland or Ireland, fantasy wise Hogwarts.
Accountability: One day a at a time, but things are moving in the right direction. House is pretty cleaned out of any junky type of food not that there was much, but the chickens and pigs enjoyed a couple of treats.
B: coffee with raw milk (I do have two eggs with spinach and ham in case I get hungry)
L: two slices of chicken loaf and gravy
D: salad with tuna
ex. treadmill
Have a wonderful day everyone.
Best of luck with the new treatment.

I got a little jittery the first few days on Phentermine, but then I got used to it. You do get dependent on it after awhile (not addicted, exactly - but you'll get to the point where it no longer seems to be working). I'm no longer on it, but my PCP prescribed 15 mg for the first month or two, then doubled it.

Good morning ~ Ahhhh, the Nacho bar... a staple at my work. I try to stick to the toppings, like if they have lettuce I start with that and make a little taco salad. Chips on the side or not, but it works for me. Yesterday was so frigging long car shopping for the kiddo. We started at 12pm and finished at 7pm. Why does it take so long? We went there looking at a used Honda, Toyota and settled on a Hyundai - 2021 w/42,000 miles - it was a good deal. I wasn't thrilled with the cost of extended warranty or the car fax (it was a previous rental w/a front end accident report) so we were going to walk. Lo and behold they reeled us back with deals on new cars and we walked out with a brand new Nissan Sentra, loaded for the exact same terms as that used car. They gave us discounts, rebates and interest rate reduction to keep us there and make it happen. I don't get it other than used car interest rates are higher and they just really wanted that sale. I'm still in shock. Black on black, very sleek. Today, I have an all day meeting for one of my associations so I'm basically chained to my desk all day with a meeting during the lunch break as well.
QOTD - Mexico, Mexico, Mexico. Sun, sand, tacos and margaritas - what else do you need?
Accountability - I was starving by the time we got out of there but managed to pass up every Jack in Box (8 of them) even though we talked about their egg rolls all day for some reason. I still want them, lol. I was 183.8 today - yay! Hydrated and everything.
B- coffee x 4, berries and yogurt
l - real good burrito
d- Breakfast for dinner
s - clementine, beef jerky

The power of walking out of a car dealership is power like no other. I remember going in just to look with no intention of buying, and the next day I was getting calls with insane offers that were no where on the lot! I'm glad he got something great!
