    Hey team I was actually 244 last week, even happier I can’t believe it, 3.7 down this week. After posting I went to document on MFP progress and saw I was 244 not 242 💪🏼

    @TeresaW1020

    Thanks for the encouragement.
    What about interesting idea to go sugar free for January. Let that sink in and prepare myself to mentally do the challenge with you.


    My origami cubes I made before a palm of chocolate to help me br mindful and slow me down

    @apple852hk Ohhh no! You might need to have a talk with your sweet friend about gifts that won’t cause you trouble. You sound just like me and if there is chocolate or sweets in my world then I will eat them all. This is a very hard time of the year for people like us when yummy sweets are everywhere. I am going totally sugar-free for the month of January. Care to join me? ;) And you should post a picture of your origami!

    Weigh in Apple852hk
    Week 4 - Dec 2020 Sunday
    PW 136.4lbs (61.9kg)
    CW 136lbs (61.8kg)
    LTD about 45.8lbs (20.8kg)

    Remained - but during the week went over 62kg so two days ate less and not have a big lunch.

    Not bad considering on Christmas day I ate one big meal with lots of potatoes. Still not eaten any Christmas cake yet.

    Trying to save chocolate for new years rather than eat now.

    Walked every day since Friday but now rain for a couple of days.

    Started eating the luxury of brioche toasted for breakfast. I know I shouldn't. Once I finish this loaf, I won't buy buy more.

    Wishing everyone the best for new years!

    GOALS:
    1. Fold a origami cube before eating a palm of chocolate everytime
    2. Walk on Tue, Wed and Thurs

    @apple852hk @TeresaW1020

    I'm up for a sugar-free January!

    I love all things sweet. I've tried sugar-free on my own before but it only lasts a couple of days. Perhaps some accountability is needed for me to achieve this challenge and what a challenge it would be!

    @TeresaW1020 saw your post about no sugar for January. I’m with you. I ate enough in the last 3 days to last me for a long, long time. A friend recommended the book below. I have ordered it. I’m interested to see what it says.

    Yes, you will automatically move to the new month. So happy you are sticking around with us! :smile:

    @adhmrh Yayyy I’m glad that you will be joining me for No Sugar January challenge! That looks like a great book to help keep you determined and focused. Let me know how you like it and I might get a copy for myself. 😊

    @Krea4 OK, another one for the No Sugar January challenge! It will be a real battle but you are right that having each other to be accountable to will make it much easier.

    @apple852hk Your origami cubes are so cute!! You and I both love our chocolate and right now I have a bunch of it. What I don’t eat from now to January 1st will either be tossed into the trash or put in a freezer bag and not touched until after the challenge is over. It’s only for one month and I think we can do it. I hope you will decide to join us. :)

    @Cornanda Girl, you crack me up!! :D My what the hell dial was off the charts too the last couple of days. It’s time to reign it in. You with me? ;)


    Good morning team! I hope you all survived Christmas 2020 and are NOT beating yourselves up too much for any overindulgences you might have done. I fully admit that I had too many indulgences with food, candy, and wine. I haven’t stepped on the scale in two days and plan to face the damage tomorrow morning. :grin: I had a lovely Christmas with my husband and mom and was completely spoiled by them both. Hubby and I spent most of the day packing up the Christmas decoration and today I will do some deep cleaning. I want to go into this next week with a clean house and get myself ready to have an awesome New Year! I saw this quote this morning and thought it was great! Failure does not mean you are a failure... Einstein famously said, "Failure is success in progress." That’s me! A work in progress. :grin:

    January No-Sugar Challenge will begin on Jan. 1st. I hope you will join me. I plan to give up all sugar, fruit, simple-processed carbs, and wine. You decided what you are going to give up. We can do it!! B)

    @Cornanda As you have seen, a lot of us are struggling. I can definitely relate to you! My weight blew up this week. It's starting to come back down though.

    @apple852hk Those are really cool. So perfect!

    @TeresaW1020 No, I'm not really beating myself up about Christmas. It was one day. What I am kind of mad about is how I ate the whole week. :( But it's a new day, a new week (for me), and another chance to be healthier in my habits.

    Hey gang! Count me in on sugar, I feel horrible right now and need to make a change. I basically see the next few days as clearing out the fridge and cupboard, no more making cookies! I feel like I've been run over by a train this year, we've all been through it in one way or another, time to help each other up, brush the dirt off and bandage our wounds, and charge into the next year!

    Ugh. Actually, I expected a higher gain, so I'll be satisfied with 2#.

    Hi all, sorry I have been a little absent in the last week or so. I have been reading and keeping up with your posts, just haven't had a chance to post as my laptop at home died (or almost) and posting from my phone is just too hard to deal with most of the time! I've stolen hubby's laptop for the moment so I'm just popping in to say hi and that I'm still here!

    I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas/holiday and are ready and rearing to go for the new year! I have indulged a fair amount on Christmas goodies (my family is known for overwatering and since we hosted, all the leftovers were left here!) and haven't done any exercise in like a week. But I've been quite active with cooking and cleaning, hitting well above my average steps most days before Christmas and a couple of days where I hit the 10k mark (which never happens!). I haven't even been weighing myself every day, but when I have, my weight hasn't fluctuated too much so I guess it's not so bad.
    I was absolutely spoiled at Christmas. Amongst other gifts, my hubby got me the Hogwarts Battle board game and expansion, which is so much fun! My parents bought me a yoga wheel that I'd been wanting to try out (bless them!!) and my sister gave me a Neptune mat (acupressure mat) which I haven't tried out yet but can't wait!

    I have considered joining in on the no sugar challenge for January, but I don't think I will. In my own experience with myself in the past, deprivation tends to lead to bingeing and self-sabotage, so it is better in my case that I restrict servings rather than avoid altogether. I have been thinking about some goals for January and for 2021, but haven't settled on anything just yet. I think that my word for the year will be "Peace". There has been a lot of turmoil and I am looking to simplify my life and ease my mind. I know that I want to meditate more (and my Neptune mat will be great for that) and do more yoga which brings me peace of mind. I have a tendency to focus on imperfections and negatives, and I want to change that mindset for a more peaceful thought pattern. And I want to get myself more houseplants to bring the peace that comes with greenery into my home!

    @TwistedSassette Sorry about your laptop. It sounds like you had a wonderful Christmas! I love your word for the year. I also do a word for the year but I'm not going to reveal it until Jan 1st. ;) I want to meditate more as well. I was doing so well during the warmer months when I could do it outside but when it turned cold, I stopped. I love yoga and should do it for health reasons if not for mental reasons.
