Bourbon pecan, pumpkin walnut and strawberry-rhubarb! His apple pie is my favorite...

GORGEOUS PIE!!!! You and Robert need to open a bakery together...

Just made this wedding soup with spinach chicken meatballs. Robert's pies for intimate and safe Christmas party.

Looking stunning in rib dress and boots! Heals especially sexy. Concert looks amazing!!! So glad you were finally able to attend. With new spikes - we decided not to attend a David Foster concert tonight. This was going to be my outfit. Just kidding! These are doll clothes my seamstress crafts and sells. They are just adorable. Are you a red head now? Send a better glimpse?!

LOVE IT! Not letting any cold weather stop our Canadian bathing beauty... Looking FAB in your bikini!!!! Here's my 27 degree outfit this morning - not as brave as you!

Outfit for our Christmas party last week!

I am finding my sweet tooth coming back like a vengeance after December surgery 2018. I'm definitely a Cookie Monster and love chips, too! Made homemade thinned sliced potatoes in 450 degree oven to satisfy craving without the salt, oil and preservatives. It must be the holiday season abundance of the treat mentality or new cool climate? And, if I take just a few bites to sample - it does not satisfy until I eat the whole piece of cake. Need to nip this in the bud. This is a good idea. Cereal. Try to reach out for a protein with fibers + fruit. Any other suggestions that have helped you or anyone else?! Finding this holiday season especially challenging with too many indulgences... Oh boy. I can resist pecan pie. Just not a favorite. But any fruit pie, doughnut, breads, pastry, cake or chocolate LOOK OUT!

Happy Thanksgiving to all our fashion forward friends in country and out! I am so very grateful for a platform of like-kind individuals that uniquely know and understand our journey from nutrition to clothing! My best to you and yours today, and always. My warm and cozy outfit for Thanksgiving dinner out this afternoon. I loved the unique horizontal channel stitching vs. normal vertical styles. And, a cropped sweater for us shorties! Yay. Haha.

GORGEOUS!!!!

I LOVE your shoes!!! Your style impeccable. I went from a size 8 to 7. Almost completed the replacement project. Boots have been really fun to add to the wardrobe. Any new boots lately? Do model! You, too, ladies!

Greenville's pretty chilly, too. Come a little northwest to visit me! Let's go shopping for coats?! I think I'll need one here - not just layers like in Florida.

LOVE your new vegan jacket! You look FAB and HIP.

Yay! A chance to finally go out! You look so pretty in that red dress! Love the neckline, shoes and toe polish... And, your arms look just fine. I conceal very bad bat wings - but do hope to get arm surgery when things settle down with COVID and our recent move.

Right there with you! This newly relocated Florida girl is freezing... It is 33 degrees here and 68 back in West Palm Beach. Oh boy. BUT enjoying all the fun fashions like new boots, jackets, sweaters for the cooler climate. I know my body will eventually adjust. Hope so anyway... Cuddling with Bobby does help.

Made these roasted green beans + almonds and potatoes slices from a leftover baked potato. Nice sides pre-made for the busy week ahead to go with a protein.

Oops...Technical difficulties! Any how - here's another rendition with fresh garlic, bay leaves, tender low salt ham cubes, lean bacon and chicken broth + fresh lemon + cumin + peppercorns. Simmer with beans for one hour.

Oh I want a bite of that apricot chicken. Yum! And, those green veggies. To bowl is great northern bean soup made with carrots, onions,

Thanks! They are by Antonio Melani at Dillards regularly $140 on sale size small for $30! I really liked the window pane trims - and they feel really good on. Thanks for sending the dress details. Soooo pretty with sequins. You will SPARKLE bedazzling all! Hoping you will get to wear it for this winter event - but it sounds like you are holding everything lightly in hand. I was always a planner - unsettling when things we look so forward to disintegrate amidst Covid. Striving to stay positive but realistic. Fingers crossed!

Slim Bunny it will get better! Keep the course. This is such a wonderful phase and opportunity to change the relationship with foods and portion discipline that got most of us in trouble previous to surgery. Here are some dishes I looked forward to mid-way during weight loss phase. i.e. Fresh homemade egg salad, soft fruits, bean dishes that satisfied. First it was a few bites, then ½ a cup graduating to ¾ cup to one cup. Now I am maintaining with approximately 1 ½ cups... Your tummy will gradually adjust, digest more effectively and tell you how much you need to sustain. Go with the flow in selecting healthy clean foods throughout the process AND your rewards will be spectacular!!! This I can promise... And, yes, the protein shake regime were like Redundant and Yuck - keeping bowels challenging BUT this too shall pass. You have so much to look forward, too!!!

Dinner last night. I ate ¼ - hubby had the rest. Love seeing salads, Green Tealael!!!! I eat one salad a day. Scoop of Chicken salad in the center. Fresh, daily fiber, greens, protein and fruit essential to maintaining my sleeve. Avoid most processed sugar, salt and chemical additives that

Oh, I LOVE LOVE LOVE you in this dress!!! Can you send a better details of it!? Shoes, too? Your picture program comes out blurry on my desk top. ;[ The lace and sheer are exquisite. Want to see... All eyes will be on you! Just stunning, ms.sss. Will you need to wear a mask come January?

Fellow short girl problems here, too! Haha. Welcome to Shrimpsville! Casual, warm, comfy (bottoms really work like support stockings for the bad knee and leg circulation issues) for errands and house site yesterday. Love the pockets! And, of course, they are much too long... so just wrapped them into the sneaker. It's exhausting to always be going to the seamstress for alterations! And, these were on a great sale - I wanted them to remain a bargain without additional alteration costs! Look too silly???

Outfitted for Old Town, VA baby shower. And, the new flats I spoke about previously.

Gorgeous ladies!!! And the backdrop exquisite. Best wishes to the new bride and groom.
