Good Monday mornin everyone!
Got a lot done this weekend. I started and finished two bracelets. One for a client and a special one for my niece. Will attach that photo at the bottom. It's my favorite I've made in a long time. It's the pattern I'll use for mine in a slightly different color pattern. It's the same ol' moorish rose pattern just special usage of the colors.
Not sure what is happening today. I need to go to the pharmacy and we need to do a few errands. I am feeling pretty rough. Insomnia and cramps in my shin area are making it hard to sleep. Gotta keep on keeping on.
QOTD: nope, not my thing. I would have went for the bills preferably but will go for the chiefs. I prefer that conference. I used to be into football big time but once the CTE and stuff came out s big as it is...I lost interest. I just know I'm glad my nephew isn't wanting to play it. As for Taylor Swift and Kelce...at least it's died down a bit. The refs have always played favorites. I do like Mahomes as he is from not far from here and played for Tech. Anyway...I don't like the hype of the superbowl.
B: eggs, cheese and Turkey sausage + coffee
L: undecided
D: chicken and maybe some cauliflower
the birds are from last night, there were thousands and thousands! I have a video and the sounds are so cool.
Happy Monday!!! The weekend was pretty good. Took time to go through some horse tack and get it ready for a sale coming up this Sunday. Didn't do all that much else. The truck didn't want to start so we still didn't get the billy goat, but I'm not overly worried about getting the girls bred. It happens when it happens.
I guess it's the Chiefs and the Eagles for the SuperBowl. Hopefully the Eagles win. It seems to me that the refs are being paid to keep the Chiefs going especially since Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are such a big thing and apparently the Swifties are helping with ticket sales. Yup big eyes roll here. I feel like football just isn't what is used to be.
QOTD: Will you be watching the SuperBowl in a couple of weeks? We might maybe if there isn't anything else better on. Kinda wish Buffalo was in it over the Chiefs then I would watch.
B: coffee
L: chicken loaf
D: shrimp scampi
30 minutes on the treadmill
Have a great day everyone!!!!
Thank you very much PaulaToronto for your excellent response. I will take it under advisement and try these things that you are recommending.
Since I am on a low carb diet no sugar/flour for many years now I take Magnesium Citrate - 2 a day and three Metamucil SF Fiber Gummies a day and go daily like clockwork after struggling for many years. If you eat low carb the Magnesium helps with leg/muscle cramps and it helps with my sleep as well as with bone health since I did get osteoporosis - not sure how much is surgery related but it did play a role. I would never do a colon cleanse as it affects your gut microbiome and not in a good way.
Happy Anniversary!!!

ð?'? My husband and I are both 16 years post op. Biggest advice is have a lifelong support person that will also hold you accountable. This is a tool & can be abused which will land you back to where you are now but with added health issues. My starting weight was 300 and my current weight is 130. Message me after your surgery for food ideas.
I am thinking of Hawaii in May. When are you planning to go?
I am still flexible and would love if we could meet up there.

Real life begins where your comfort zone ends
Happy Anniversary and have a great dinner! If John orders the Porterhouse for two, he will be able to have most of it to himself with our little stomachs!!
