Happy New Year TBBT!
Things have been beyond chaotic and I'm afraid this month is going to be as well. Last month was a complete bomb for me, so I've been really trying to get back on track logging my food, walking, etc. I am regaining control, and can get back to the progress I was once seeing... I just have to stay focused!
This month I have two trips, one to California for my vacation and my brother's wedding, and then a four day trip to Atlanta for training for work. There's about 5 days between my two trips so I am trying to prevent as much damage as possible over this first month of the new year!
I am making it a plan to check in(participate) at least once a week this month, because this has become one of my biggest struggles. I want to be the interactive and encouraging person that I have been, but I've realized I need to take small steps to get there.
Wishing you all a safe and happy new year!2 -
Happy New Year, team!

I'm going to tag @JbeanR0212 and @HASWLRS also. Somehow Jen keeps dropping off the spreadsheet and I just keep adding her back. 🤷♀️ Lisa pops in periodically to say hello.
I shirked my duties a bit in December between work, holidays, traveling to VA and Seattle and I didn't check in with people like I should. But I will be back home tomorrow and plan to pick up where I left off. ☺️3 -
@cmhubbard92 that's so nice that you are going to CA for your brothers wedding. I just started planning a trip to northern CA for the end of April. We're going to San Francisco, Napa 🍷, Yosemite and Redwood National Park. I'm excited.🙂2

@downongreenacres looks fantastic! ☺️👍3 -
After a tough couple of weeks away in England (I don't think I can even count that as a holiday..), I am back in my lovely Spain and hopped on the scale this morning. The results were not unexpected but also not welcome!

@MamaSunflowers Welcome back! 2 -
Hi everyone!! My name is Sue, and I am 62 years old. I live in southern Maryland, am married, have two grown kids (1 in Seattle, 1 in VA), 2 grandbabies (VA) and 1 fur baby 🐶. I work full time, currently teleworking which appears may go on for.ev.er. I love to read, ride my bike, quilt, and make greeting cards. I am always up for a challenge (you've probably figured that out LOL) and am usually involved in multiple reading, fitness and Fitbit challenges at any given time. 📚🚶
I have been on MFP for 10 years now and part of TBBT for a little over 2. Wow...time sure does fly!! I joined TBBT after COVID/teleworking caused my weight to climb. I officially hit my goal of 140 lbs in September but sadly have been on a steady climb since my vacation in October.
My goal for January is to get back into my normal eating and exercising routine. If I can return to my normal way of eating I know that I can lose the vacation / holiday / travel weight that has crept up on me.
Welcome to our new teammates and welcome back to those returning. Here's to a great New Year!!
Good luck everyone!!2 -

Hey Team! I didn't have access to my laptop until this morning; was supposed to post weigh in yesterday....
I have had MFP app for some time... but have never taken it seriously to get real benefit from it. This is the year I take my physical health and mental health seriously! I look forward to getting to know the team more as we progress through this year on our health journeys!

@DaffyGirl88 that sounds like a wonderful trip! I would love to visit all of those places as well! Unfortunately they're 4-7hrs from the places I will be!
We will be near LA for the first few days, then heading down to Palm Desert for the wedding. I have a few(too many) places I want to go visit while we are out there, but I don't know what kind of time we are going to have outside of wedding things. I do have one small hike planned at Vasquez Rocks on the one completely "free" day we have.1 -
