Friday Five No. 89

This post contains affiliate links.

Three blog posts in one week…WHO AM I?? There is something about the fall and the weather getting colder that makes me want to blog. Who knows? Let’s just roll with it! HA!

ONE. This blog is officially TEN YEARS OLD. I am just as surprised as you are that I have lasted this long. LOL! I do have a ten year blog post that I have been working on and it should be ready next week so be on the look out for that!!

TWO. I feel like I’ve been holding out on sharing my absolute most favorite peanut butter of all time with you. It’s called Nerdy Nuts and I found it on TikTok a few months ago, ordered it one time and have been HOOKED ever since. It comes in a bunch of different flavors, some that stick around all year and some that are seasonal. I have tried pretty much all of them and my FAVES are Circus Cookie, White Chocolate, Butterscotch and Butter Beer. I like all of the others I have tried too but those are my die hard HAVE TO HAVE them flavors. If you want to try them for yourself they open their online store every Sunday at 6pm CST and usually sell out within minutes so be sure to do your research beforehand and figure out which flavors you want to try before you get online to buy. Good luck!!

THREE. I have a post planned next week about my quick trip to Dallas last month to see the pumpkins at the Arboretum. This makes my third pumpkin patch trip and this year was so AMAZING!!! I can’t wait to share all of my pics with you!!!

FOUR. I am officially 5 months post-weight loss surgery and I have lost 57 pounds. That is almost too crazy to even write. I am down 82 pounds from my highest weight and I think at the 100 pound mark I may just announce my highest weight? That’s one thing that everyone asks but I haven’t been ready to share yet. But I will, one day.

The pic on the left recently popped up in my Facebook memories from October 2019. I was at work celebrating a co-worker’s birthday and I was in XXL scrubs. I honestly did’t feel or think that I was that big but that pic really put things into perspective for me and I made my first appointment with my weight loss surgeon for later that month. I am now in a size MEDIUM scrubs and can’t even believe I wear that size when I put them on. This has been one absolutely crazy year and I can’t wait to see where I am next year!!

My weight loss surgery posts….Why I hd Weight Loss Surgery and Is Weight Loss Surgery Covered by Insurance??

FIVE. I have run out of things to watch on Netflix. HA! I finished the latest season of The Crown on Netflix and started rewatching Reign. I forgot how good that show was. What have you been watching lately??

And that’s it for this week’s Friday Five! I hop you all had a great week and will have an even better weekend!!
