"I really don't like Nutella"

I'm calling dibs on the Nutella you don't want (before Sheila jumps in!)
If PB can count, then I hate the dreaded Nutella.

G'afternoon, All! Better late than never!
I got my COVID vaccine yesterday and was cold plus very fatigued most of the day (started a few hours after the vaccine). I'm OK now - I just have a sore arm. I was like this with the first vaccine or two - I don't think the ones after that had any side effects - until now. I got Moderna this time, though, which bothers some people more than the Pfizer vaccine (but they said this time around, it's also more effective, so that's the one I went with...). Haven't done much today besides going to a meeting over lunch (one of my film clubs). I really need to get out since it's 80 degrees F out there. In mid-October. I'll go biking or walking later. I hate to not take advantage of this beautiful weather!
QOTD: ripe bananas (well, overly ripe bananas)
QOTD2: morning: multivitamin (Centrum or equivalent), magnesium, B-complex, D (5x a week), K2 (2x a week). Afternoon: another multivitamin (and lately, a fish oil capsule). Before bed: vitamin C, carbonyl iron. Once a month: B12
Have a great rest of your day - and weekend!

I couldn't eat bananas for a couple of years after surgery - way too cloying. I can eat them now, though - but they can't be overly ripe - way too sweet then.

I hope I didnt offend with yesterday?s honest post - in any case 
I lived to argue my Show of Cause another day ( next Thursday).
The oppositions attorney showed up with -count em - FOUR overpaid associates to witness his decimating of a legally undefended older and physically challenged person. 
The B was SO sure of his victory that he asked for a warrant of eviction from the Marshall BEFORE the scheduled lhearing !! Unbelievable! 
I did kind of put the kibosh on his plans by requesting an interpreter ( I?m legally deaf - 70% hearing loss ) I lip read but that?s impossible to do with someone talking sitting next 2 U - plus the guys a trickster .
But of course I will have to argue next week. If I lose we?ll get evicted since the default eviction order is in place , only temporarily stayed pending the Judges ruling .
I HATE being in this unenviable ( and extremely stressful) position and am constantly kicking myself for the life choices that allowed this to happen.
For what it?s worth I cope better in a clutch ( very stressful and hi- pressure situation) my own way by de- stressing a little.
It was only some wine and its flavored beer equivalent.
BTW my goal is not to be 100% sober - just to drink reasonably and function as well as can be expected.
Exercise - PT this morning followed by Central Park walk home and Chiro this afternoon .
D yesterday - olive bread w spiced olives and beans, wine
B- chockachino
S- little bottle apple cider
L - bites of fried chicken sandwich , coffee latte insides of two samosas
D - shrimp w avocado n cucumber salad, plaintain , 2 ribs , bites of gochouang chicken n skirt steak , watermelon juice
S- dragonfruit zero sugar 7-11 Slushie
total walk for the day 6.41 miles
It?s frustrating and boring 
showing up for myself and doing what I have to do. But I?m doing it unlike a few months ago. Accountability is good 4 me !
Accountability yesterday - 2/3 of a normal sized bottle of wine , 4 Tates ( largely butter ) cookies in the middle of d nite n skipped barre class ( jes too tired and bottoms of feet were tingling )
Vitamins ( when I remember - about 1/2 the time - chewable C 1000 mg , gummy chewable multi and K2 , horse chestnut capsule , iron ( different forms of ferritin never elemental iron ) amino acids
I hate to admit it but I don?t enjoy raw fruit plain . I have to dip in Stevia first ! ( and my pouch won?t tolerate raw apples just cider and apple pie ! )
Here R some pics from my walks in Central Park.
Those outfits are so cute. Bet they had a lot of fun.
Real life begins where your comfort zone ends
Yay for your NL pictures and your fun day photos!

Good morning!
Under accountability for yesterday. I get an A. Good meal choices. Planned treat. All water, all day. I'll admit the only thing that kept me from going for a glass of wine was knowing I had a 6:30 am yoga class today. But I will take any edge I can get. 502 move calories, 101 minutes of exercise 10,638 steps.
Today, Yoga and spin class are done. I opted out of treadmill time and I will probably be mad at myself by evening time. But I am physically tired. I've done yard chores and some house stuff and I am cleaning up and need groceries. That will keep me busy this morning. This afternoon will be reading and a nap. This evening, dinner on the neighbor's deck. It's hot today, on the 90's, but expected to be in the 70's by early evening. There will be wine. My only goal will be that there is a reasonable amount of wine. Nothing more.
QoTD1: Anything pumpkin.
QoTD2: I take all Bariatric Advantage supplements. I just had my blood work done and I am to step away from the Vit D for 30 days and then go back to half a dose. My B12 is high but not an issue. Every single other metric was just about dead even for the middle of "good" numbers. I also got a bone density scan done and while not much improved from two years ago, it's no worse. So exercise is paying off in that area as well as supplements and good food choices.
Pics are from Rog heading off to Oktoberfest. What a riot.
Peace!
