Can't believe we are into december already!
today marks day 40 Alcohol free. I am down 10-12 pounds now...am happy about that. I will have chicken and sausage gumbo for lunch and then turkey green gumbo for dinner at our friends house that we had thanksgiving. I will bring the left over crawfish dip. I really need to get into the shower but will have another cup of coffee first. We talked about putting up the christmas tree this weekend. I have so much paperwork that I need to do....sigh bizi The most days I have done in recent history is for lent: The season of Lent lasts from Ash Wednesday (the day after Mardi Gras) to the evening of Holy Saturday before easter. This calculation makes Lent last 46 days.

My time on line is out the roof.
I just spent hours rereading my threads from last year and this year looking for patterns. I definitely yo yo with my weight and drinking. (I did not need to spend hours reading to know this truth). Even though I am not drinking right now I feel I am out of control. I had many things that I need to do this long 4 day weekend. I still have one day left to be productive. 3 loads of laundry transfer calendar for the new year....this will take quite a while. Chart for the month that I am behind. This will take a while too. I need to get to bed! sigh I cheated again on my diet at friends house for green gumbo. I ate 4 pieces of corn bread. and had cherry pie with ice cream. my favorite! I did note that I weighed 194 on 8-5-19 my heaviest weight. I weighed 181 this morning. 40 days AF no real picking bizi

So Far it has been a productive day.
Lite lunch at the diner. (picked at a chef salad) Laundry, scrubs, load of socks and undies, folded and put away. Washed the bath mat, mostly cleaned the bathroom floor, it had hair spray. Changed out my work advanced planner for the year. Transferred appointments from old calendar to the new one.... only have to do this once every 12-16 months. Filed info cards back into place. listened to Jerry Garcia and the grateful dead. getting ready to have dinner. Need to do charting after dinner. bizi

Hattie jumped on my lap again tonight, It makes it difficult to type.
Should be grateful that she wants contact with me. She is Jeffs cat and will hiss at me and occasionally she growls if she doesn't like what I am doing to her. Unfortunately she smells. Jeff is out with the guys listening to some student give their final concert for the semester. blues, cajun and latin bands. It is at a bar so jeff can drink so am sure he is happy about that. Did not want to go. It is chilly out side and I get cold easily. I cooked up some veggies stir fry and some brussel sprouts with an orange sauce. Ate half of that and a piece of cheese and about 1/2 cup of the low carb ice cream. After I cleaned up I decided to put up the little christmas tree on the dining room table. I used only miniature ornaments. Think it turned out fine. It looks pretty with the lights off. 43 days af and stuck at 10 pound weight loss....I need to be easy on myself we did just have a major holiday! Need to start thinking about christmas presents for Jeff. I don't have any idea. He is hard to shop for. I am getting gift cards for my family or just cash like I did last year. My picking is under control so that is good. My computer usage is terrible. Did get my charting done so am happy about that. hugs to those who need them. ((((((((HUGS))))))) bizi

I just filled up my pill box for 2 weeks, luckily I had enough. Need to get refills before we leave. Also my magnesium citrate 400mg.
Made a run to the grocery store to pick up some tonic water for his gin and tonics. And for me some non alcoholic ginger beer, zevia (stevia sweetened) makes it and it is delicious. I also picked up some low carb, mint chocolate chip ice cream and ate a third of that pint which was very satisfying I might add. Jeff and I went to a christmas/choral concert with Carol tonight. She really enjoyed it! The wind ensemble play with the singers and there were some soloists. It was really good! We were seated in the center of the row and I had to excuse myself and get out of there because I coughed and was afraid that I would cough again so sat in the rear of the auditorium until the concert was over. I have a fear of getting cancer from inhaling the chemicals that I use every day for work..for the past 20 years. If I get cancer of the lungs, throat or nose it will be because of that chronic irritation, (it makes me cough if I inadvertently inhale the spray). Christmas party in 2 days. Beef chili sounds good. I know that it is low carb because I asked. I will bring my cup again with stevia to sweeten the water. They are playing the white elephant game or steal the gift. I just found a perfect regifting gift for the party. Cat pillow cases! LOL. I hope you have a good day/evening for those who follow along in my journeys. 44 days AF, 11 pounds down. bizi

You have so much going on dear Bizi! I hope you enjoy your trip, wherever you are going! (I must have missed those posts!)
 When I read about your chocolate mint ice cream it reminded me of what I purchased today!! A 3-pack of Extra Mint Chocolate gum at Walmart! I had really wanted to try it, and today I did and it was really good! There's something about it that doesn't make me want to shove several pieces of gum in my mouth at once like peppermint gum does! So if I finally found a gum I can keep in the house it will be wonderful!!! We'll see how that goes! |

That is great about your gum find. Isn't it great when such a small thing makes a difference.
We are traveling to Indiana, leave december 21st.I am not ready at all. Have to get hubby something. Will give money to my family. Hattie will be boarded at the vets and we have a pet sitter coming in every other day for Hazel our calico cat. It will be cold and possibly snowing. Will have to check closer to the date. hugs to you. ((((((HUGS))))))) bizi

Hi Bizi! Thanks for telling me where you're going. I hope you have a great time with your family! Little things that work out are great, but the gum didn't work out.
 I ate way too much all at once. Oh well, I can't buy gum for myself anymore, maybe just 1 pack at a time at most! I hope you are doing well!

I chew spry gum, it is good for your teeth. It comes in a jar of 100...i think. It last a long time this way. I chew 3 pieces at a time.Since I have not been drinking I am chewing a lot of gum....keeps my mouth busy.

It is friday night and we are getting ready to go to a christmas party.
They are serving green chili that is low carb, I asked! There will be a white elephants teal the present game. and an ugly sweater contest! I think I will have a piece of cheese. Jeff is out with the guys celebrating the last teaching of class today. Can't remember if I told you of this low carb ice cream? I really like it. But I should only have it on special occasion. It only has 4 net carbs for the pint. It is mostly fat. I am working tomorrow which is fine. It will be a busy day. I saw 5 clients today which is more than I usually see. Jeff is going to help me upload documents and turn them into pdf files. That has to be done before I can renew my nursing license.sigh Hope you have a nice weekend! bizi

Hope you have a great time ! I need to look internet into that ice cream for my husband, he started getting stressed the other day when I explained him the basics of a diabetic diet. I can fit that ice cream into it for him occasionally. I’m glad Jeff is helping you get all that necessary paperwork figured out.

It has a lot of sugar alcohols and is mostly fat. You have to let it thaw a bit before eating. The party was fun and our gifts were well received and we liked what we got. a cd of laurie anderson readings. Jeff likes her so that was good. Then he picked a reflex tester. LOL The food was very good. The chili needed some spices so I found some salt and some pico de gallo and added them to the chili, it helped a lot! She made the best appetizers: apple with bacon wrapped around and baked.....delicious! I had 4! Got home at 10pm. Am tired after a long day. Tomorrow will be a long work day. bizi
