Hope your 1st day back to work goes well!

Thank you!
So far it's been very slow, which just about suits me today!

I hope everyone is having an excellent Tuesday. I went off my diet this weekend and feel awful from all of the bad eating and drinking. I definitely need to do a cleanse lol. I just finished my Christmas in July playlist. I can post a drop box link to it if anyone is interested. Do any of you make a CIJ playlist? If so, send it to me!!

Hope you feel better soon, Frosty!
Have a Merry Tuesday!

That's what my wife says too. It was a little of the eating, but honestly the beer probably did most of the damage. I have lost 67 lbs since last August and have 10 more pounds to reach my goal so I've been super cautious of what I eat and drink. I know that when I weigh in this Friday I will not be seeing the result I want, I will most likely have gained a pound or two and I need to accept that and move on with my eye on the goal. If I don't lose this final ten by October I'm done for because I love all of the fall treats and pumpkin beers.

Me, too....
Hope you meet your final goals, friend.
Congrats on the weight loss! Sounds like you're doing pretty great!

Thank you! I'm doing well, it's been frustrating because it seems as I get older the pounds come off so much slower. I could have lost this weight in 4 months 10 years ago. My weight last year was the heaviest I have ever been, I think it was a combination of moving to a desk job, having a newborn and age. I know I'll get there, I just get so impatient.

That is a good one!

One of my favorites for sure! The two beer specialty stores that stock it here always get it around Halloween and if I don't buy a few right then and put them away for later, they are usually out of stock by late November.

You're welcome, friend.
That's understandable, to be impatient-and they all would have that effect.
You have the right attitude & drive though, wishing you the best! You'll be there soon!

While seasonal brews don't compare to soda, Santa Cokes have a habit of disappearing from the shelves the same way.

Count me in on that. I think it's this virus that won't leave. I'd love an afternoon nap, even after two cups of tea this morning.

It was hectic here this morning getting caught up & closing out the quarter (unbelievable we are in the 3rd quarter of the year now...) but I think I'm all caught up now! Hope you feel better very soon!

Better remember to stock up!

They are usually available for a long while here in grocery stores & gas stations.
