Weight 119.4 (unchanged). I seem to have found a new set point. I really don't want to give up the tirzepatide. I like how I don't have to work at keeping my weight here and I like my less sore joints. I hate that it is likely going to become difficult to get.

Yesterday my goal was to be done at the house by noon, but I beat it by 2 hours. DH was a big help in cleaning the refrigerator and doing some of the sweeping. When we got back to DH's home we loaded up the remaining junk from the basement and garage cleanup here and got rid of it all at the dump. I'm going to attempt to get some sort of estimate for installing the mailbox so I can leave it with the new owners.

Today we have a few remaining items to find places for. I brought pans for baking since they didn't seem to have any here but since they won't be used much, they may get stored in a bin. First we have to sort through and organize what is here. This evening I am going out to dinner with my two SILs to celebrate the birthday of one of them. We are meeting at a restaurant we like located about halfway between where I am and they are now.

Feels like a semi-relaxing day compared to the last couple of weeks. At this point I would be thrilled to have a day when there is NOTHING I feel compelled to do. Anyway the bus leaves at 7:30 so I better get dressed (it is Sunday breakfast day). Have a somnolent Sunday!

Feels good when you feel like you have returned to where you want to be doesn't it?

I haven't wanted a sugary drink since I had VSG. Maybe my brain is getting a message to stay away from that stuff!

Maybe the package has a reveal of whether the baby is a boy or girl (or does everyone already know)?

Greetings all

Another sunny great day. I went to the gym late morning to do walking. Mr. Grunt Man was not there. TV was turned on to horse races which is something I can watch without sound and get it.

AFter that I did phone calls and then we watched our football game. Our team won. It was not pretty but I will take it. I have sort of had the munchies all day and want to eat cheese and crackers. Not good.

Tomorrow we have a zoom call with DH family. Nephew sent me a package that I am not supposed to open until that call. Ok, I will play. I think it's something to do with the money I gave them for IVF. Should be fun.

DH has been taking apart electronics. He takes all the electronic stuff out of the metal or plastic boxes so there is less e waste. A good idea but he is sure noisy! Sounds like a fork going down the garbage disposal.

Well DD enjoy Galveston! Nice beaches. Have fun. Still lizard weather I think.

Congrats Liz on being almost to the goal line on all projects. Yeah the buyer can take care of those things if you make it easy.

Peps is killing it at the dog shows! Yay Buster!!!

Tell us what things you try on the new stove Paula. Looking forward to details.

CC that chicken thing looks good. Nice find.

We are almost finished with the pizza which is good as I am sick of it. I need to go to some different store delis to find something interesting and healthy to eat. Plus the dogs demand their tribute.

I did get laundry done plus partial desk clean up. Give myself a B. Thats ok

Update on the easy protein search. Walking past the meat case, I saw these flavored uncooked ground chicken packs. Pretty basic ingredients (nothing weird), it cooked up fast, and was very tasty! I got the bruschetta flavored one and put a little mozzarella on it and put it in a low carb tortilla. They also had a fajita version. I will be getting more...


Ingredients: Chicken, tomatoes, basil, less than 2%: garlic, vinegar powder, salt, and rosemary extract.

Yes, those last 10 pounds are always most noticeable. And sometimes even after we are maintaining, weight shifts around and our appearance changes yet again.
