Good morning! Happy November. What a nice evening we had. Hundreds of kids. 400-500. So many. So much fun. No candy passed my lips. Wish I could say the same about wine. Dinner was very carb forward, so I just ate small amounts. I was very busy handing out candy. Thank goodness all the fam and the neighbors are so comfortable in our house. There were little parties everywhere inside and out and everyone just took care of everything.
Accountability -- wine. zero intentional exercise. 466 move calories, 32 minutes of exercise (this would be running around all day and all evening) and 10,153 steps.
We ended up with the grands plus one spending the night and we've promised IHOP for breakfast. Then a day full of changing out decorations and packing for Vegas.
QoTD: oh yeah. Usually to customers I've known a long time. Awkward.

I know how you feel about the color orange, hopefully you won't feel the same about the man in orange.

Good Morning Amy and Meneurs,
Sounds like you deserve a rest day. Enjoy! I had to stop at the DMV on the way to work and update my photo. Since this milestone birthday is coming up look like I have a lot of updating and appointments. Monday, I do a dexa scan, Tuesday seeing bariatric doctor for a follow up. And Thursday I have a dental appointment. They have not got back to me with the day I will be doing my colonoscopy. We had beautiful weather for Trick-or -Treat. One of Rudy's friends that lives about a 1/4 mile away came by just to see Rudy. She is 2 and pretty much has known him for the last year and a half. She finally got up enough nerve last week to start petting him. It was so nice they went out of their way to bring her by. They are such a cute family, and you can tell she is a daddy's girl. I noticed he often has his toes polished and you can tell it was at her hand. So adorbs. My weekend consists of gym in the morning, Mom duty, getting the meatballs ready for the dinner party I am throwing when Jim and Maryln are in town. Tomorrow evening Mom got Bowling, so I need to take her around 6. Sunday is the big fundraiser for the Local Library. This is the one with the biggest Cookie tables I have ever seen. I nailed the dry October. Not one drop of alcohol. Didn't do much for the scale so I will have a mimosa or 3 at the event.
QOTD: Not nearly enough. But I do say it to mom all the time just to see if she reciprocates. Sometimes yes sometime no.
Accountability: I ate a sharing size bag of Pumpkin Pie M&M's
TSS: 6 years 10-months 24-days 166.8 Lowest (129.4)

CB: Coffee with SF Coffee-mate pumpkin spice creamer

D: I'll have and old fashion and a wedge salad with brisket and BC dressing.
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 weeeknd day my friends.

Seriously what 4-year-olds want to go as a Salami Sandwich and a bag of chips. Ron was a major contributor on the bag of chips.

- Good morning everybody!
I got a little too chatty in the whirlpool after swimming and ended up having to scramble to make it into work. I?m on my train albeit with a little chlorine smell about me. I showered before the pool, so it?s not like I?m filthy or anything.
The weather yesterday started rainy in the morning and later turned chilly and windy, but we still got about 150 kids. We handed out 4 boxes of full size candy (minus what we snacked on) and still had to break out the smaller sized bag. We have one unopened bag, which hopefully Costco will take back.
One thing that was different this year was that the littles mostly came after 6:00 as opposed to right after school. I wonder if that is because of Return To Office?
We have a black tie event for work Saturday night, but otherwise a gym-centric weekend. And trying out my bicycle.
Fall pictures - Pumpkins, Octoberfest, and 5-ish K.
QOTD: Yes, that and calling people the wrong names.
Breakfast: Bagel
Lunch: Turkey Sandwich
Dinner: Carnitas
Have a great day, all!

Good mornin everyone. Sorry for being MIA so long. My mind has gotten in the way. I felt inferior and all that bull crap. Treatment resistant depression is no joke. Good thing I am to stubborn to give in to the BS.
Not just a whole lot happening with me. I am finally feeling more optimistic about losing weight. My weight ballooned once I started on insulin. I am so ashamed of it. I had a steroid injection last week that sent my numbers to the moon. That and I had a hard time finding a pharmacy that carried the new insulin I started. That was a whole other thing.... My excitement is not the kind I want.
I am starting a new eating plan tomorrow. Not going crazy today or anything but getting a bit stricte tomorrow. Cutting back on carbs little by little. So I'll be posting again. I just felt insecure about myself. I apologize.
QOTD: not a lot. My family is one of those that don't say I love you a lot. You show you love them if anything at all. I am breaking the cycle. I tell my nieces and nephew every time I see them. BUT in fifth grade I told a cross walk guard that I loved him. I was so embarrassed and I still cringe about it to this day.
B: eggs, cheese and bolthouse farms dressing...coffee x 3

G'morning all!
Halloween was great. So many kids, and older kids. We went through 4 Costco size bags of candies plus a box of regular size candy bars I had bought for older kids. Their look when I put the regular size bars in their bags was priceless. We got a lot of compliments about our decore and my sign (my pride and joy!)
I am so grateful for my surgery. Last night my heart wanted all the chocolates but my stomach said heck no! If it was up to me I would have eaten a lot more than 4-5 fun size chocolate, but the body shut down and said walk away.
Starting tomorrow I'm volunteering at a polling place in my county; I'll be working Sat through Tuesday and the hours are from early morning to late night, so I might not be posting for the next 4 days. We are not supposed to wear anything political at the polls, but I am wearing pearl necklace and converse. I am hoping sometime next week we'll have a Madam President.
QOTD: so many times. My most embarrassing moments were when I would call the boss "hon"! Then at home I would call DH by boss' name!
My meals yesterday:
- Coffee
- Posole soup
- Protein pumpkin cheesecake
- Quest bar
- 4-5 fun size chocolate
- E: 6 miles wog
Happy Fri-yay!
