    @SModa61 I certainly understand your frustration! After the mess we had with Carnival, trying to cancel our cruise for October! After a week of multiple unreturned calls, we finally got a human who returned the call. The cancellation and full refund were handled in a matter of a few minutes. Trying to cancel online yielded a message that we were not eligible for a refund.

    BE SAFE!!

    Sounds like a very similar problem. Glad yours worked out. (I'm thinking of smuggling the scale in the car so I can properly check in during the travel. :P )

    Round # 43 for me!
    SW: 373.8 (5100 steps daily step goal, go to bed by 11:30, no eating out or junk food 6 days a week)
    Day/Weight/Comment (previous day steps)
    1/27 373.8 – 5993 steps. Under calories, got steps and walk in and was in the bed on time.
    1/28 374.8 – 5358 steps. Under calories but I still ate terribly. Snacking all day and not hungry and ate back movement calories. No walk so not surprised by gain. And the thing about me when I gain, it takes a minute to drop. But I am good, I know my body. I knew the carbs would show up today. :( I am going to take my calories off the MFP preset calories for my weight and put to 1200 to 1500 calories. I have not decided which one yet. How many of you use MFP recommend calories for your weight? I don’t want to set my calories too low. But I think I am going to start with 1200 and if I need to increase I will. It is snowing here in Chicagoland, and I love watching the snow. Snow is a love hate relationship! Lol And we have had a snowy January so far and more on the way…. :)
    1/29 373.0 :) – 7094 steps. I got in a Leslie Sansone DVD yesterday and a good calorie day with 1200 calories and eating back some exercise calories and some to spare. In bed on time and got over 7 hours of sleep even though I got up in the middle of the night to listen to the end of the finals of the Australian Open between Danielle Collins and Ash Barty. I am going to go to bed early tonight so I can get up about 6:00 to finish the end of the men’s final :)
    1/30 373.0 – 5489 steps. I did get in another workout with DVD. Had another zoom memorial yesterday and today. The memorial today was a high school friend who died age 57 from complications caused from COVID. It was a very nice zoom memorial. Both were very uplifting and encouraging.
    1/31 373.0 – 5534 steps.
    2/01 375.0 – 5152 steps. I have been struggling. Fast food challenge over and no desire to go out and get any. Too much snacking and carbs. Doing a little better today. Logging it all. Back in the red :( Not worried, going to get back on it. Tomorrow is a new day and another Zoom memorial. I am going to take 2 hours personal time to attend. A close friends Mother passed who caught COVID in an assisted living facility.
    2/02 375.0 – 6531 steps. Good day yesterday. Memorial was nice today. I got in a short walk yesterday also.
    2/03 375.0 – 5783 steps.
    2/04 375.0 – 5370 steps. Well, it doesn’t look like I am going to lose this round. ☹ One more day to see. But I am ok with it. Can’t be perfect. I am going to get in a workout today for sure to see if I can at least maintain or lose some of gain.
    2/05 Saturday
    Total lost this round: (+1.2)

    My journey … "I May Not Be Where I Want To Be, but I’m Not Where I Use To Be!"
    In 2003 Weighed over 600 lbs.
    2nmriozz84rc.png
    In 2005 Weighed under 400 lbs.
    r3o1lagrbd1i.png
    In 2007 lowest weight after surgery 302lbs
    uzs2w5a7aw1h.png
    My highest weight was 611 in 2003. Weight in 2004 before weight loss surgery was 580. Lowest weight after surgery was 302 in 2007. "I May Not Be Where I Want To Be, but I’m Not Where I Use To Be!"

    I joined MFP on March 27, 2010 weighing in at 388 pounds. I was re-gaining weight and stumbled up on it while trying to get back on track. I was determined never to see 400+ on that scale again for me.

    I have been morbidly obese all my life. I have a lifetime of mental and physical scars from obesity. In October 2004 I had Gastric Bypass surgery. WLS (Weight Loss Surgery) was the best gift that I could and did give to myself.

    Between 2008 and 2010 I gradually gained back 80 of almost 300 pounds lost initially after weight loss surgery. I never reached my goal weight of 200 pounds. I still managed to keep off over 65 percent of the weight I lost which is very good and I am very proud of my accomplishments since 2004. It has literally changed my life for the better on all levels. I am here to lose re-gained weight and to reach my initial goal weight. I am in no hurry. I am taking this one day at a time and I am in it for the long haul.

    Surgery did not fix the head. It is a good tool and the best gift I have given to myself, but it was not the easy way out as many people think. Once the honeymoon period is over after the WLS it is up to the patient to keep the weight off.

    On August 29, 2011-- I was admitted to Intensive Out Patient Eating Disorder Program to learn how to manage my binge eating disorder effectively. The program is wonderful indeed and will be instrumental in me reaching all of my goals. The focus of this program was how to eat and not diet. Weight loss was not a goal of the program. I actually gained 20 pounds in program. But I had to get thru a lot of stuff and my the time I was released I had stopped gaining. I was discharged from program on December 3, 2011.

    My tool is still working for me today. My head is still the issue. SO the struggle continues. I will never beat myself up again. I fight the fine fight faithfully and positively everyday. Because that is what will get me to my goals one day. Even though it may not show up on the scale every day -- Everyday I make progress one way or another just by showing up, waking up and trying.

    Giving up is not an option for me. Perseverance, Patience, & Positive thinking will help me reach my goals…… and the same is true for you too!! :smile: We have the power within us.

    We ALL have good rounds and bad but that is part of life. Don’t stay away, stay accountable. We don’t judge, we support.-Jpv,2/13/19

    What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.

    People say keto/LCHF isn’t sustainable. I’ve been doing it for over 4.5 years with amazing results!

    This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

    **Comments apply to previous day**

    SW RND 176 117.0 AW 117.75
    1/27 118.0 Spent all day yesterday in quilt guild meetings, ate 2 not fancy salads - dinner “Greek” salad (different than our regular places) was lacking just about everything it did have some gyro meat, ate 1/4 tough pita, had 1/3 Granny Smith apple with Smucker’s Natural peanut butter.
    1/28 117.0 Not much appetite yesterday 🤷‍♀️ I’m all out of sync today. Trying to cancel cruise for the upcoming October due to vaccine status requirements.
    1/29 118.0
    1/30 118.5
    1/31 117.5 MUCH TMI success yesterday LOL
    2/1 117.5 Shopping and driver’s license renewal today
    2/2 117.0 Shopping didn’t happen. Someone hit DH’s car, speeding and passing on the right on a one lane road! No injuries. Couldn’t get Real ID because I haven’t seen my Social Security card since I last worked. The number is printed on a document from SSA but that wasn’t good enough. DHS/Federal rules do not require social security info for Real ID so it must be a Nevada rule which is interesting since they require NO ID to vote in this state!
    2/3 117.5
    2/4 117.5
    2/5 119.0. Totally expected and probably worse tomorrow. It’s all gonna be okay. Busy day with quilt show meeting (pastries) and sewing with friends lunch.

    @SModa61 When we used to drive cross country, our scale always went with us. LOL
