I cannot figure her costume out!! That book was great, I love Charlie Donlea. All of his books are great, I devoured them!

Licking the screen for those cookies.

That's a very cute poptart.

Luckily I'm a good sleeper and get a solid 7 a night, sometimes 8 and rarely have insomnia, though it does happen occasionally. My exhaustion is mostly mental. I need to shut down which is probably why I'm not very social in general or active on the weekends anymore. I really need a new job, I only see this one getting more intense.

G'morning all!

That meme was me pre WLS with cookies. The whole box was one serving. Oh chocolate bags too, one bag, one serving.

Yesterday was flights' purchase day. Got both kids' flights home for Thanksgiving. It shouldn't be an ordeal but with their schedule and when they can leave school and when they have to be back there was a lot of back and forth texts. I am always grateful when they come home, because I hear from so many families that the kids decided to go elsewhere for the holidays and it breaks my heart. I totally understand they are grown adults and if they have a partner they need to take that in consideration, but my heart can't handle it. I do my best not to make them feel guilty if that happens, but sometimes my face is louder than my mouth.

QOTD: not sure if it's a life style check but my priority is def my workout and my meals fave to be protein forward. For the rest I am flexible.

Sent kids' Halloween packages out. DH always says I do these more for me than for them, and he is right. It makes me feel close to them when I get something that I know they will love or reminds them of home.

My meals yesterday:

• Coffee
• Chicken meatballs, cherry tomatoes
• Barebells bar, 1 plum
• Protein icecream - cherry and vanilla (we call it Amarena in Italy)
• E: strength training

Happy Fri-yay!
