What's on your Tuesday Menu?
Do not overdo it girl. Worry about the protein more than anything. So glad you are on the mend. You had me scared there for a while. Hope all the bad is over and you come out better than ever.

It was always a barn, wasn't it? "Turn those lights off. What were you raised in, a barn?" "Close that door, you don't live in a barn."
That generation was obsessed with barns.

Good Morning Queen JB and Menuers,
1000 of cookies? I got 3 desserts knocked out for Thanksgiving and I was patting myself on the back. Guess I patted a little too soon. BTW do you have a Restaurant Depot near you? They have 50lb bags of powder sugar and usually more cost effective than the store you mentioned and there is no annual fee as long as you are a business.
QOTD: Exercising. I just have no desire to jump out of bed and get it done and afterwork Rudy is lucky to get walked. I do not miss his walks though he is the saving grace that I at least get in a mile walk everyday.
Accountability: I did a bit of grazing.
TSS: 5 years 11-months 3-days 161.8 Lowest (129.4)
B: Coffee with SF coffee mate chocolate caramel creamer
MS: L&F zero sugar vanilla Greek Yogurt, hardboiled egg and berries,
CB: Coffee with SF coffee mate chocolate caramel creamer
L: pork and sauerkraut, and snack select
D: Pork and sauerkraut and butternut squash casserole.
Exercise: Dog walking.
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 started to post a couple of times yesterday but never made it all the way through. I am really struggling, the last few nights it's been very little sleep. Monday I was awake at 3 and last night midnight. I don't think I got much more sleep after that. On Monday I just read my book. Last night I tried not to move because once I do the cats are awake and not behaving. Last night I swear that I heard my little Sissy trying to find her way home. It sounded like she was in the attic off of my closet and trying to get out. I don't know what it was, it just freaked me out and made me sad.
QOTD- Actually working out instead of just thinking about it. Being more motivated at work, not waiting until the last minute to do things. Cleaning my house...the list goes on. Getting out of the house. Right now I feel like I'm failing at everything.
I need to get to work.
Have a great day everyone!
QJB- I don't know how you do all of those cookies, I think the smell would drive me crazy.

It's funny--the cookies don't even look or smell like food to either of us anymore! Last year at this time the novelty of having a lot of cookies around the house was very tempting and we both over indulged way too much. I'll eat a mistake cookie every now and then, but generally they just seem like massive inventory, not a treat anymore. It's similar to when I used to work at a candy shop or in fast food places as a teen!

I have known a lot of people who say they have ghost kitties that come back at night to visit them. I believe that the spirit of my lost kitties come back and take over the new kitty that would come to live with me. Sorry about the lost sleep and hope tonight is better.
