Argh, started typing and lost it...
Boxed mashed potatoes! Perish the thought!
185.4 today. Being at home is so much easier. I wasn't very hungry last night and just mixed up some tuna salad and a few pretzels. I struggle when I eat dinner-sized dinners. Snack-sized works better.
It's Kirby's first birthday. He got chicken and cheese on his breakfast and we'll go for a nice walk.
The bug guy is here and treated the inside of the house which hasn't been done all summer. Hopefully helps with the scorpions!
I might go buy a new hummingbird feeder, but no real plans today.
Hope you all have great days!
132.8
So enjoyed yesterday's posts. Everything seems to be moving along just as it should. Liz, I really appreciated your response to Devon's post about perspective. I recall a response C.S. Lewis about praying for change in the cir****tances of our lives, saying, "Prayer doesn't change things; prayer changes me".
DD, I was relating some of yesterday's events and DH wants to be friends with your DH- horror movie, friends and drinks- a trifecta in terms of enjoying moments.
Went to St Vinny's to drop off a few things and saw that the "fall fashion line " was in- no time to really look, but noticed that the length of sweaters was extremely long and loose. I don't hardly shop retail, so-question- am I seeing this year's fashion, or (being a thrift shop) was this last fall's fashion? Just curious.
Kurt has taken Swann for a walk about and I guess it's time to get around myself. So grateful that the chances of finding scorpion carcasses are low gives me no excuse for cleaning and other stuff.....
163.1. So close to 30 lbs. down! I read all of the posts yesterday but was too tired to make my own! Long boring day on the road taking Mom home and then back again. Went out for pizza with DH. It was only okay. Sometimes I think the GLP1's broke my tastebuds! Lol! Shot day was yesterday. I broke the metal top off the bottle to try and get every last drop! Was supposed to meet with my Stephen's Ministry person today but she canceled (again!) I have a feeling this one may just stop altogether! Will work on the Title pages for my scrapbooks today. DS3 coming home for a psych appointment and then dinner before heading back to school. Poor kid can't get his ADHD meds due to a shortage! Says it makes it so hard for him to read without the meds. Going to make Pepper Steak for dinner.
Liz, mashed potatoes from a box? Blasphemy! I'm glad you did the right thing and made them from scratch! The centerpieces are going to look lovely. I'm so excited for your DD and am looking forward to seeing many pictures from the day! You are starting another new chapter! May it continue to be a good read!
5' 4" tall, HW: 242, SW:215.4 Weight Loss - pre-op: - 26.6, M1: -15.4, M2: -16, M3: -11.4, M4: -11.2, M5: -12.2, M6: -7.4, M7: -7.8, M8: -2.0 Goal of 130 lbs. reached at 8 months, 2 days post-op!
Peps, I am going to walk my daughter down the aisle (DS is performing the ceremony)! Very, very happy about doing that. I believe both DS and I are doing the Father/daughter dance with her.
LOVE THIS!!!!!!
Official weight (I record once a week): 119.4 - weird how I fluctuate so much some weeks after being totally flat during others. Over the last week I have gone from 120 down to 118, now back up again.
8 days to DD's wedding so 1 week to rehearsal/rehearsal dinner. I need to pay the BIG bill for the reception today. That's going to be painful. I close on the house 3 weeks from today. Feels like another whole new chapter.
I am working on coming up with a short toast for DD and her new husband. I'm not a humorous person so I can't do a joking one but I hope to make it short and sweet. I felt like I had a great one while I was driving my car the other day but unfortunately I haven't been able to reproduce it yet...
SIL and I did the pre-work for the wedding centerpieces yesterday. I think they came out pretty good - will put the video up on TT. Afterwards, SIL stayed for dinner with DH and eldest DD. I bought this amazing chicken pie from a local pie shop and made homemade mashed potatoes and broccoli. I stress homemade because DH thought everyone just used boxed potatoes for mashed - LOL!
Nothing on the calendar for today which feels really good. There is a small chance that soon-to-be-married DD and her DF will come down for the night but I doubt it. We may go to DH's house as he is working on preparing it for the move-in of my stuff.
TGIF! Have a fine Friday!

I thought you looked good in January- sometimes we are our own worst enemies.
