Cool! I'm gonna make the PB Cookies for Mr. F. this weekend. I'll freeze them to have on hand for him. Sometimes he will get a sweet tooth and want a little bite of something.

I'm gonna try making it with the PB Slim powder and maybe egg whites (to see how low I can get em in cals!--cuz we don't need the extra fat around here). Might add a bit of WF Marshmallow Dip for the sweetener. I know...eek!!!

I bet it is the fat...but magnesium tests are sometimes false. And the dried fruit thing just seems like...hmmm. Maybe magnesium? Why not try an epsom salt bath. Very relaxing. :D

And you should totes get more fat, cuz of the vegetarian thing. Since we eat meat and avocados I think we have a diff situation. :)

So funny we were posting about Peanut Butter at the same time this morning! Get out of mah head!!!! LOL.

I bet the egg whites will make it a little more like meringue. Nice!

True on the magnesium, it's still a possibility.

Oh snap! That's forkin brilliant girl!!! I was thinking of just adding the carton egg whites, but if I use real eggs and separate them then whip them to stiff peaks and fold in the pb powder...hold me. I might "win" the weekend with them and be a rockstar for him! :)

Awwwwww! TY! :D Like you though, I don't actually see or feel that. It feels embarrassing to get a compliment. It's like I feel like I will always be the girl with the "great personality" who gets put into the friend zone. me=dork

But in my secret garden heart, I want to be smokin' hot and Miss Behavin' with him all the time and I want people to look at us and think...what on earth is she up to now? I bet he never gets bored! (haha--of course in reality, last night we had salad and watched a Hallmark Christmas movie in jammies)

LOL.

Yesterday seems to hopefully have been the worst... which should mean things will get better over the next week or 2. Being back at work doesn't really seem to help though.

Thanks for checking in!

Yay! Hopefully the worst is behind you!

I've been doing some mild IF, just basically going to bed early, and then I've never been much of a morning eater. Other than that I haven't been very mindful about what I'm actually eating. Nothing gluttonous, but nothing virtuous either.

I'm hoping maybe I've found where I can maintain? Maybe it won't be such a battle to do so? I'm afraid to say it too loud to jinx it :unsure:

OMG guys. I seriously can't make myself concentrate and work this week! I've procrastinated on a project that is due first thing in the morning. I do NOT want to nut up and do it. Ugggh! It taxes my spirit and soul to do this kind of creative writing. Someone give me a ginormous shame-filled spanking and tell me to adult. I don't want to adult. I want to retire. LOL--like that's happening in my lifetime. LOL.

Seems like "creative writing" and "taxes my spirit and soul" do not belong in the same sentence. It must be about something you have absolutely no passion for.

Ugh yes!!! I have to make sense of this woman's resume and craft a dynamic version of it. It needs to conform to a certain style and tone that her peers are using and ughhhh. I can't be tagged for inadvertent plagiarism, so can't really copy. And "in my own words" is just not coming to me.

Her draft is soooooooo bad, so verbose, so dry as old bones, it's like trying to spin and do a complete rewrite of how the facts are presented. I got nothin' left. I'm spent. LOL.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
