    Hello guys. I'm back. This is meow123393. I changed my username. I am back after recovering from a MCL tear. I'm not completely recovered but my knee is now stable and I have finished physical therapy. Hubby and I might be closing on our first house in the next week or two. Keep your fingers crossed for us. I am easing back into the weight loss journey. I might indulge in some foods this month as we celebrate the short life of our son on the 9th who we lost to a miscarriage last year. I got my husband started on keto about two months ago and we have transitioned to low carb. He has lost 20lbs! Well that's all the updates I have for now. It's good to be back. :)

    Got tripped up a bit by a much-later and heavier dinner than usual due to Hanukkah celebration, but oh well. Here's to a successful month and finishing out the year strong, y'all!

    @mram3582 I wish I could have gotten some good matzo ball soup and potato latkes. I'm not Jewish, but my wife's dad is, and I love the food. With that said, my in-laws had us over for pizza, Chick-fila nuggets, and tater tots, with donuts for dessert lol! Chag Sameach indeed!

    Well I lost a tiny bit but I always round up >_> Have also dealt with the first two Christmas parties. One I was very well behaved, the other less so lol. So I'm happy that I entered 270something for the first time innnn 7 or so years but should have done better really. Determined to find solid footing in the 270s with next weeks weigh in :)

    It looks like you guys who've had your first weigh in this month are all heading in the right direction (and I don't know about you but December is just the worst for me). So big well done @OnlyDragonQueen @AustinRuadhain @mdgivens @Daynacrd and don't worry about that pesky soup @mram3582 - you will smash the rest of the month as usual ^_^
