Just Give Me One Month! October, 2021

BOO! Welcome, all you ghouls and goblins, you witches and wizards, to your October thread. Fall is definitely here, the leaves are turning, temps are falling, and the Christmas displays are going up in stores all around! No, really! It's not even Halloween and one local hardware store has already SOLD. OUT. of Christmas lawn displays! Ugghh. But enough of that. There's one more month to get out and enjoy the scenery and the crisp Autumn air because...Winter is coming! Just watch out for those piles of candy at the end, right?

Let's do this!

    @babysaffy The Walmart (great value) sugar free popsicles might be nice and cool on your gums after surgery, and they are only 25 calories. I like them better than the popsicle brand sugar free popsicles (very sour) but those are only 15 calories. And there's sugar free fudgsicles too, only 40 calories. All good, I imagine, on numbing those gums.

    Highest weight: 189 lb
    Ultimate GW: 133lb
    Sept weight release: -3lb, which was a little disappointing but I'll take it no matter how small, glad I didn't continue to rain
    End of Oct GW: 161 (-8lb)

    Oct 1: 169- on soft foods still since gum surgery yesterday but had to literally sit in my car for 20 minutes tonight and talk myself out of going into a store or fast food place and buying junk food just because it's Friday night. Came home and had sugar free jelly (jello) instead. Win!

    Off to a decent start for the month (yes we are 2 days in and I have to be proud of that, lol. @babysaffy I had that same conversation with myself. I ran to the store after work and had to curb the thoughts of "but it is Friday and I've had a long week, blah, blah, blah". So I went in, got what I wanted and made it out without the junk. To me that is a WIN!!

    Happy weekend and now to make sure I stay focused on the plan and not let the unplannedness that I love of the weekend to be my food downfall.
