    I am getting back into this as I just suffered a miscarriage and am trying to keep myself occupied from this tragedy. Getting back into fitness and maintaining a healthy weight and lifestyle will only benefit me and our future efforts to get pregnant again. We are planning on trying again after the first of the year possibly in February. I am hoping to be down at least another 5-10 pounds by February.

    I'm not sure this necessarily counts as a tradition since basically everyone does it, but I really, deeply love wrapping presents. I put an embarrassing amount of effort into the wrapping. Creative papers and ribbons (or twine, yarn, etc), unconventional methods of tying the ribbons, handmade gift tags. It's a borderline hobby at this point.

    Going to update my current weight since I weighed myself this morning and am down 1.6 lbs (which I figured would happen based on the weekend).

    Weigh-ins on Wednesday. Gives me time to lose the weekend water bloat.
