@Bm00re2u I say this a lot, but one day, even 2 isn't going to destroy all your progress, you just get back into it and move on...you may have to lose a couple of pounds again, but it's really not a big deal, remember, we're playing the long game here, we're going for lasting change and in the grand scheme of things, a couple days, a week even, over a year....you're still coming out on top, so get back in there, you got this! I'm super proud of you, you are already making plans to continue on and get back on track! That's just awesome!
Gained over Thanksgiving, as I didn't eat particularly well. Starting off today fresh with a good workout session! I hope everyone has a great weekend!
Thank you for the insight Ashley. This puts everything into perspective! Thanks for being a motivating force for everyone in the group!1 -

Daily Post November 24
Track: Yes
Calories under goal: Yes.
Exercise: Long walk in the neighborhood plus getting some chores done around the house. I'm thinking about getting Nordic walking poles to use when I walk. My lower back really starts hurting after about 20 minutes. In a past life I was a distance runner and I can feel my body getting used to exercising again....and I look forward to it.3 -

Exercise: Walking with the dog 30 mins, without the dog 30 mins
Walking is so boring.
Good news: Wife checks my blood pressure and listens to my heart at least twice a day. She did not hear an irregular heart beat today.

@kearyandjessy I'm glad you're back, this is the last week of November and I can add you back for December, but I'll need a starting weight and weigh in day, and feel free to hang out with us for the rest of November and post!2 -

@mexiconona Nothing to be sorry for and definitely not a failure. You only fail if you stop trying! You got this, just pick back up and start thinking about the future, not the past!1 -
Hi everyone I know it's been a minute since I post but I've been hanging with family but I'm proud to say that I have been tracking and staying under my calories even with e as ting keto friendly butter pecan ice cream not overdoing it as I only have 4 teaspoons at a time less than the serving amount so I stay under my carbs which I keep track with the Macros. I did make the butternut squash casserole which came out so delish and tonight I'm having mock mash potatoes with cauliflower.
I have one more day here in NC and I'll be back home in NYC Monday evening around 11pm so I'll jump on the scale then. I just pray to God that all my sacrifice paid off, I'll be so mad if I didn't lose any weight after I resisted sweet potatoes pies and my sister made 24 of them, cake, pizza and all the other high carbs foods although I did have 3 small helpings of regular mac and cheese my only cheat.
@gjaholy33 I LOVE this! You've been rocking it, I'm sure your weigh in will go perfectly!1 -
Wow you gave me some great ideas for desserts for Christmas Whip cream and berries. I also do not like stevia so I use Xylitol
Happy Thanksgiving
@gjaholy33 I also don't like stevia, but I can't bring myself to use xylitol, I use erythritol. xylitol can kill your dog if you have one, just in case you didn't that. I don't have a dog, but I still can't bring myself to use it.1 -

Comments: Today is a classic day in St. Louis, had a severe storm producing a tornado near me, like 5 mins away, and now it's snowing with 20-30 mile an hour winds...so that's a thing and about 40 mins north of me, is getting a blizzard so, also a thing...got my workout in before all the weather so, that worked out...of course I wasn't expecting the storm, so that was a surprise. Anyways, tomorrow, I'm determined to eat better than I did today, I fasted most of the day and then got randomly hungry and ate a little more than I meant to, but still within my goal so I'll take it, but I'm determined to get back into it and on track and more in control than I have been this week.2 -

CW : 236.7
All good. Went over my kilojoule allowance a couple of times but I logged everything. Looking forward to the December challenge. I am aiming for 220lbs by the end of the year because that means I will be under 100kg. I know it's a lot to hope for but anywhere close will be fine 😁
