Hope everyone is doing well and staying out of trouble. Today was an exercise rest day. However my aunt gave me a ride for my Walmart grocery pickup. I did my laundry at her place and she picked up lunch for us from Boston pizza. I had the pizza poutine and a side of veggies. Thursday I’ll be back to the gym for noon spin class, a bit of leg workout and treadmill. Been adding a bit of chicken back to my diet. Plus some Greek yogurt and egg whites. Doing low calorie dense foods and trying to stay in a calorie deficit to lose the last 15 or so pounds I want to lose.

Tonight was some fun, DD and I baked up the 6 pie pumpkins ( they were just ,97 ea at NF last week ) .
Three of then we removed from the oven earlier than the last 3 because we wanted the flesh more firm to be cubed for soups. The other 3 we cooked very soft, then food processed it all up.
All 9 filled ziploc baggies are in the deep freeze now. ( 3 cubed and 6 of the puree )
The puree will be for muffins/cakes that sort of thing.

Oh and I can actually like posts without waiting 2 mins now lol. Anyway I’m back from my spin class and I’ll have lunch soon. Then at 3pm is a video doctor appointment just to get my anxiety medication refilled. That’s better than going to wait in the er. My doctor is only at a walk in clinic and he hasn’t operated his clinic for a few months now. I’m going to see if I can get a 3 month refill because that’s what the er did for me last time. Usually the walk in clinic doctor would only do a month or two at a time.

I really hope everyone has a good day and weekend (soon lol)

thanks @cath007 !! My recipe was identical.
I wanted to teach DD that making your own pumpkin puree is so easy and it doesn't look all a brownish colour like the canned stuff.

Had a good video appointment with a doctor today. He was very friendly and said im definitely going to do your prescription for you but I just wanted to talk and ask you a few questions too. We talked about my depression and anxiety. He said it’s good that I understand what’s happening with me and lots of people don’t. He said I was very well spoken and truthful with him. He said he wants to make sure I’m ok and if I need any more appointments book anytime or if it’s just to get my prescription that’s fine too lol.

Anyway, before my appointment I did the 45 min spin class. I tracked everything except the cool down. I would have done weights and treadmill too but I wanted to get home for lunch and make sure I was ready for my appointment. Will have about 3200 calories burned today and I ate 2059 calories so that’s 1200 calorie deficit.

hope everyone is doing well today.

Good morning @GoJays thanks for all the smiles have a great Friday.

Its very cold in the house so I guess it’s time to turn on the heat

Trump and Melania have both tested positive. I wish them well but am suspecting that this might be a ploy to increase votes for him just before the election. If it is real, he might then realize how awful a threat it is.

Good morning!
Our PC died so Hubby's out looking force new one..just basics we're not gamers, Haha.

Cold outside, Heaton in the house, DH had to put the heat on in the car, but no snow!

I'll be staying indoors doing more hand-sewing on the stuffed gift tags...that's all the news that's fit to print! 😊
