I'm glad you stayed AF!
A lot of people on diets will eat before they go to parties, cookouts, etc. so they aren't as tempted to eat as much while they're there. It's hard to resist some of the food while you're out tho, and it's hard not to snack if you're bored, too. Today IS a new day tho |

I have another BBQ to go to this evening at 4pm. I have a 6-pack of stevia sweetened root beer, cooling in the fridge. We picked up some brocolli salad from whole foods yesterday to bring. It looked kind of wilted hope it is still ok today!
Just got back from breakfast at IHOP. Man it was good. I had a cheese omelet with salsa and hot sauce, and an order of swedish crepes with lingonberries. They are a tart little berry and delicious! Raked up a small barrel of magnolia leaves from the front yoard. We accidentally left on the sprinkler last night so the back yard looked flooded this morning. OPPS! Now I need to take my meds. I did not take all of my supplements and vitamins last night...I just said screw it and took the prescription ones. I feel the same way today. Just rx meds. maybe I will just take all of those supplements during the week and not take them on the weekends. I don't know if they help me or not. I have been taking them for years, just lately added a few more. have a great day! bizi

Remained AF during the BBQ/gathering. Only drank 3 diet root beers and felt good about that.
I did eat a hamburger with the bun and some brocolli salad and a handful of bing cherries. Very filling dinner. I forgot that I had a smoked sausage link. There were 7 adults and 2 children ages 12 and 10. Played the game corn hole where you toss the bean bag across the yard to another wooden box with a hole. It was so hot outside and I was having a hot flash so went in to use the bathroom and wash my face off and cool off a bit in the air conditioning. I quit the game early. Tried to talk to the other folks there and be social. Spoke with the host about his plants. They are lovely. The patio is surrounded with plants big and small. Fortunately, they had ceiling fans out there so that cooled it off some. We had a very nice time. bizi

It sounds like you had a great time!
I think it's great that you brought the diet root beer. Not only were you able to stay AF, it's also on your diet I'm sorry about your hot flash. It must have been terrible since it was already so hot outside |

I had brought a 6 pack and it was great! put on ice just like a beer and opened and sipped on it just like a beer, carbonated just like a beer. Great substitute for a hot BBQ outside. It worked beautifully. And I knew everyone there so did not have the social anxiety so much.

The new front door is finally being installed today.
Can't wait to be done with that. I hear hammering and such. Jeff is at school right now and should be back soon. My car is at the honda dealership. I wanted the air conditioning to be worked on before our trip north to Indy. There is something wrong with the air conditioner, it has failed us multiple times. Something is wrong with it! It is fine in town driving it is just the long distant trips where it has failed and then it is miserable. There is also a recall for the air bag and needs an oil change. So, I will be driving Jeffs car today and possibly tomorrow that is if they have the parts it needs and if there is an easy fix. Anxious to hear back from them... IT is a 6 speed manual transmission and hopefully will only need the 5th gear and stay under 50 mph so I won't have to put it into 6th gear which I am not good at. More hammering, 2 men out there. makes me nervous, hope everything goes smoothly for this installation part. All last week Ian was staining the door. It is not dark enough, he said he put on 4 coats. It is a fiberglass door and a light oak finish. Being textured it looks like wood. It will have to do. We really like the door, he will paint the inner casing and trim once it is hung and put on the hard ware door knob and lock that we picked out. All of the hardware is brushed bronze finish soshould be pretty. Next project is picking out a new outside light. I need to put on the water to water the grass, and potted plants this morning. Keeping fingers crossed for both an uneventful door installation and not expensive air conditioning fix, will find out by the end of the day I suppose. Have good day! bizi

Today was a difficult day to pass up fat pats for a beer. I kept thinking how I have stalled losing weight and how a couple of beers would not matter. But I resisted the urge.Came home and snacked on some almonds and a piece of cheese. Then I drank a diet (zevia with stevia all natural sweetener) root beer and it filled my need for something fizzy.(like a beer).
Anyway.... Had pork chop for dinner and left over broccolli salad from yesterday. 2 small pieces of dark chocolate. Tonight, I think I will have bowl of lite pop corn while watching seinfeld. Jeff is off playing pool with some friends/colleagues of his. I have some office work to do: catch up filing and finish the billing process. The front door is almost finished. Ian did a shoddy job so the contractor saw the door and they are going to fix the multiple problems. We love the new door its just they need to fix the problems. The guy who was working on it either quit or was fired. I took my car (red honda fit with zibra seat covers and a license plate that says "FOOT RN") into the shop for air conditioner problems, an air bag recall and oil change. It required service work and the air conditioner had a condenser failure. All told it will cost about $1800, to fix the problem and the part won't be here until thursday so I will be driving jeffs car again for 2 more days. His 2 door bright blue civic car is a bit sporty having a 6 speed manual transmission and a spoiler on the back.. I can drive a stick but can not put it into 6th gear! Luckily I could stay at 55mph and get away with that. lol Between drinking the zevia ginger root beer and chewing gum, I am keeping my mouth busy. So, I am not snacking and am resisting the beer sitting in the fridge. I have been on line for hours now so had better get my business work done. Have a nice evening yall! bizi
