    Congratulations, @cmhubbard92!! So happy for you!!

    Well, nothing like stating the obvious, but my heart is just not into it, so I will be bowing out until the New Year...but I will be back! Merry Christmas, everyone! Have a wonderful holiday, even if it looks a little different this year.

    Merry Christmas and we look forward to seeing you in the New Year!

    @knlizght - Wow, the difference is amazing! I didn't know they could do the scans either. This should be a great motivator for you - way to go!!

    Weigh In Week: December Week 3
    Weigh In Day: Friday
    Previous Week's Weigh: 168.0
    Today's Weight: 168.0

    I'll be happy just to maintain and not gain the rest of the year. There's too many treats in my house and now my kids are home for 2 weeks and they have bottomless stomachs! Plus my husband is off for the next week and he likes to eat out a lot. I've still been exercising but I'm not liking my current program as much. It's strength focused but my joints, especially my knees, are feeling very tender and rickety.

    @thedestar Enjoy the holidays. It will be a 2 week break here at my house too. My family loves for me to bake during time off.
    I'm sorry that you are having trouble with your joints. Be careful. I'm very particular about the type of work outs I do for that very reason.

    Stay strong this weekend! If you do have a treat don’t let that guilt you into giving up and going crazy. Good luck everyone <3 we’re all struggling, but we’re in it together. We won the first week- I bet we can win this week! I wonder if anyone is worried about telling their loved ones that they want to lose weight? Like if you don’t want to partake then it will make them unhappy? I don’t think they will be sad if you don’t bake those cookies or that traditional food. You’re loved.
    Has anyone replaced any old tradition foods with something healthier or just not have it be about food?

    @cozydonuts
    This year we are having a breakfast. It is something different and we won't have all the tempting leftovers and pies.

    Nothing wrong with enjoying the holidays. Especially in a year like this. It seems you are already mindful of the situation.
    I think most of is agree that simply maintaining over these next two weeks would be a big win

    End of Day Note ~ I ate 2 Donuts just before going to bed! I try to understand why I eat when I do so that I’m not getting back into old habits. So I know this: I asked My Self if I could have a snack as I looked over at the box of dozen glazed donuts, then my alter ego, Myself cut her off with “don’t say No to her because that’s all you ever do is say No”! And then My Self ignored her by occupying me with things like getting water, doing my nightly face regime getting ready for bed, then after a few minutes Myself was in there getting the box down from the pantry for me. My Self couldn’t believe her own eyes but also couldn’t resist to sing out “she doesn’t reeeaaally want it thooough“.. Myself instantly shut her down; “Just let her, she is just tired of that empty feeling in her gut, So maybe you’re right and she’s not hungry, and maybe she should be asleep already and maybe she shouldn’t have even brought Donuts for everybody else in the house. Sometimes you can stop being a warden and just Let HER LIVE!” -And that’s what happened and I think the moral of the story is: Go to bed earlier = voices can’t argue if they’re sleeping lol

    Good morning team, and happy Monday!

    I have been busy with planning our wedding and preparing for Christmas. I have been logging in to check on you all but haven't had much time to say too much!

    My fiance doesn't want much to do with wedding planning, but I told him he needed to pick a date, and I would take care of everything else. We are getting married on February 18th(19th if my brother can fly out from California), and are keeping things very simple. We are going to have the wedding at our home, with just his parents, brother and my mom and possibly my brother. I've ordered my dress (yikes) which will be here this week. I'm excited, but nervous because it's only 59 days away! There's not a lot that we have(besides pick a justice of the peace, find a cake, plan food, etc) to do to make things happen, but I think I'm already going crazy trying to figure it out.

    On top of this, we have Christmas Eve dinner at our house, and I have to prepare for that as well! There's just a lot going on!

    Despite it all, I am still here and cheering you on from the sidelines! Keep up the amazing work and I will try to check in a little more with you all this week!

    @Krysless2
    I have been there, too. Unfortunately, it often happens because I woke up in the middle of the night and can't get back to sleep and I eat what I had talked myself out of earlier.
    But all you can do is move forward.

    @DaffyGirl88 thank you! The wedding we're planning is going to be very low-key, and if he can't come, we will set up a video "chat" so he can still be there. I have a few friends that want to virtually "attend " the wedding as well, so we're figuring that out.

    @brandi_84 thank you! I hope you have a great holiday as well

    @prehistoricmoongoddess happy belated birthday! I hope you enjoyed yourself!!!
