As I Enter Week Three:
SW: 167.5
CW: 159
GW: 145-140
Any side effects? Just thirsty
No constipation.
On lowest dosage.
There’s a lot of stress this weekend. And Foundayo has curbed my appetite to the point where I am not stress-eating.

Hi there!
After spending out-of-pocket for Foundati, I am wondering if there are any free apps for tracking-especially calories.
I just deleted an app that was useless because i couldn’t get caloric intake on foods. I refuse the spend another penny.
I have the WE app and its okay, but again, no calorie tracking.
Thank you in advance for any info.
Ahh! Today: Head to get another Covid and pneumonia vaccination.
Then to the appliance store to search for a new range.
Then to see my husband’s granddaughter’s recital.
Then to come home and work on an illustration my son requested.
Then to start preparing for dinner but being mindful of what to eat.
And my favorite outfit is being worn! I’m wearing the large bottom and medium top. Luckily I have a medium bottom and as I lose more weight, I can donate this bottom to the patients in the hospital I work in!
Happy Saturday and stay cool!
This kinda chic that’s trending on social media is really annoying me.
Although I am by no means a grammar police, the word “chic” is very much misused and misleading in the trend.
Chic is a nuanced distinction of how one dresses and carries themselves. It’s that person who just has a knack for wearing jewelry or accessories a certain way to look understatedly fabulous.
Thank you for allowing me to vent. BTW, I’m not chic but appreciate a truly chic person because they are few and far between.
I love soft boiled eggs and when I saw these, I couldn’t resist!!🎄🎄🎄🎄
The striped set! I have the bottom in a large AND medium. Top is Medium.
On a GLP1 since Thursday. Lost 5 pounds so far. That said, the Medium bottom is still a tad snug but the progress makes me happy!
I encourage everyone to purchase this set because it travels well, doesn’t wrinkle, and always looks great!
At 167 and 5’6 I have tried to shed 20 pounds and in two years the scale has not moved.
Went to the doctor today. Working for the State of PA stinks! Insurance won’t pay for Glp-1. Even though a 20 pound loss will have me much healthier.
Anyway, eagerly awaiting my 0.8 dosage. I can do this…I hope!
My back is finally healing thanks to bed rest and medication!
I ordered this skirt—it was 39 USD on sale! Size Medium. I love it! Arrived yesterday-the color, it’s so summer-friendly and can be worn into fall and winter with boots or nice pointy-toed flats and a sweater! I plan on taking it to Paris in November-it will pack so well and look and feel great when heading to dinner!
Today, I am wearing my Rondini Tropezienne sandals, OGL’s Brami top, Size Large, and my Speedy bag because my doctor strongly suggested not carrying a shoulder bag for a while!
Happy Friday all! Have a wonderful weekend!
This might be an odd request but I am looking for a simple, basic game that I can play to relieve my flight anxiety.
I recently deleted Candy Crush Saga because the game became nearly impossible to play. I refuse to buy any sort of booster, etc. But CC just got out of hand. After deleting, I reinstalled it thinking starting over would be like the old-school CC. It isn’t. It is nothing but challenges and all I want is to just play a simple game.
Same with Piggy Kingdom. It used to be great! Now it’s garbage with next-to-impossible levels.
One of the “sub-games “ within the games that I enjoyed were simple merge games and they are no fun either.
If anyone has games that are somewhat old school and fin, your suggestions would be appreciated!
First off, I had been playing CC for years and made it to 8000 plus levels. However, it got too frustrating and was not fun anymore.
So I deleted the game entirely and reinstalled to start at level 1.
The game changed. Old school CC was fun and easy and more simplistic. Up to level 481, it’s ridiculous—extra hard levels, etc. It wasn’t like that years ago.
I’m not paying for anything. I’m just playing. But even at this low level, it’s not fun.
In addition, I noticed this with other games. They all want money for you to make the games easier — but what fun is that if one has to pay?
Would love to return to simpler times……
Yesterday I decided to try my luck at making pink pralines then go a step farther to make a pink praline tarte.
I love treating myself to pink pralines when I’m in France and had a crsving. It isn’t difficult to make them but it’s a bit time consuming.
Get whole almonds. Toast them @350 f for five minutes. Set aside.
Take 2/3 granulated sugar. 1/3 water. About 5 drops red food coloring. A drop of rose water ( optional). Heat in a large skillet. Set on medium high heat.Put the almonds in. Keep stirring. Coat the almonds keep stirring until the moisture evaporates and the sugar gets like sand.
Pour the nuts onto a baking sheet.
Into a medium saucepan, add the remaining sugar that was leftover from t coating the nuts. Add 1/3 cups sugar and a drop or two of red coloring. In the meantime put the coated almonds back into the skillet. When the “sauce” gets bubbly, pour over the nuts in the skillet and heat until coated and moisture is gone.
Repeat process once more. The nuts will have a thick layer of dark pink sweet sugar coating.
These are great to give as gifts or for just when you crave a sweet.
Then there’s the tart: I made a regular tart crust. Then, pulsed a cup and a half of the pralines until they were well chopped. Poured the same amount of heavy cream into a saucepan ( medium). Added the pralines. Cooked over medium heat high until bubbling. Cooked together about 20 minutes.
Poured into the blind baked crust.
Set in fridge 4 hours.
We enjoyed after France won the match against Paraguay.
Anyway, I am no professional just a home cook and this tart was excellent!
I am a fan of Le Tanneur. There’s a sale happening now and I purchased this s trip of leather pouches for USD 150. Free shipping. Arrived from France in three days.
Heading out to run errands using the large pouch. Holds my LV slim purse wallet and my ID holder as well as my phone.
Packaged in a nice dust bag.
I had been eyeing the LV Kiragami for a while now and at 850 USD I don’t think it’s worth the price.
The quality is excellent here. Just thought to share!
I purchased this scent thinking it was eau de parfum. It smells great and I have been wearing it quite regularly.
When I shoed it to my French husband, and asked him why he hadn’t commented on my beautiful scent, he shrugged and pointed out its room scent and not to be worn on one’s person.
Then, in an unexpected and unusual moment of non-gaulic behavior, he burst out laughing!
Actually, we both had a good laugh!
Just thought I would share!!😂😂😂😂
Off to work! At 71 years, it’s so wonderful to not have to wear a bra! Oh I love the Brami tops!
Okay. I remain flummoxed over being invited to dinner last night by a family member of my husband’s.
Please allow me to say that when entertaining family or friends for dinner, I prepare as much as I can ahead of time to enjoy the guests that have come into our home.
For example: dessert is always made in advance—I can spoon Chocolate Mousse into dessert glasses and set in the fridge. In the meantime, I can whip cream, spoon it into a piping bag and just before serving, can pipe the cream.
Mashed potatoes? Cook and rice them and add butter, cream and seasonings andset on the stove to heat up while having starters. A roast and veg? It’s all time management.
Accompaniments for aperitifs are set before guests arrive.
Starters at the ready as well. You get the gist.
So last night we arrived at husband’s relative’s home. We arrived 15 minutes later than the time given. Nothing was ready. It was somewhat uncomfortable and awkward for us but we ended up having aperitifs and chips.
Then it was time for the starter and this is where it gets WTF-ish. Melon and wrapped prochuitto were placed on the table while our host(ess) went into the kitchen and we were left to serve the melon and prochuitto by ourselves which made me uncomfortable. Not angry ir annoyed-just uncomfortable.
Then she started making couscous while we were at the table. Finally came to sit down and discussed how expensive the meat was.
The main course was fine. But it was just odd the way everything was prepared while we were there.
I dunno. I still can’t figure it out. Why invite someone to dinner if it seems like a chore? I just can’t seem to stop thinking about this! Lol!
Took the day off from work for a “me” day. Mani. Pedi. Running errands. Turning a three-day weekend into a four-day.
Wearing my OGL midi dress from last summer! No bra needed! Deep zippered pockets allow me to put bills and cards into them for easy access.
Size M . Five feet six inches. 165 pounds.
Have a great day everyone!
