Hey Bari Besties! 💜

Indiana said “it’s mid-November, who?” — ~70–72°F and sunny, which made pool-closing whiplash extra real. Today was GLP-1 shot day: I took my final 7.5 mg Mounjaro dose; 10 mg starts next Friday. Big nutrition win: 85g protein, mostly from food (only one 30g shake!). Breakfast was a high-protein yogurt (texture saga: Chobani = paste vibes; Oikos Pro still the MVP). Dinner with my bestie at Texas Roadhouse: chose salmon over steak (LDL says thanks), plus green beans and a light-dressed side salad.

Household bits: plotting pool closure and stashing hoses before temps drop. Picked up Shava’s prescription cat food straight from our longtime vet to support the clinic.
