 Hello guys. I'm back. This is meow123393. I changed my username. I am back after recovering from a MCL tear. I'm not completely recovered but my knee is now stable and I have finished physical therapy. Hubby and I might be closing on our first house in the next week or two. Keep your fingers crossed for us. I am easing back into the weight loss journey. I might indulge in some foods this month as we celebrate the short life of our son on the 9th who we lost to a miscarriage last year. I got my husband started on keto about two months ago and we have transitioned to low carb. He has lost 20lbs! Well that's all the updates I have for now. It's good to be back. 3 3

 Egad! That is what some super salty matzah ball soup and some latkes do to me. At least I am through all the holidays that involve eating now. Back to the grind!                         2 At least I am through all the holidays that involve eating now. Back to the grind!                         2

 Got tripped up a bit by a much-later and heavier dinner than usual due to Hanukkah celebration, but oh well. Here's to a successful month and finishing out the year strong, y'all!3

            @mram3582 I wish I could have gotten some good matzo ball soup and potato latkes. I'm not Jewish, but my wife's dad is, and I love the food. With that said, my in-laws had us over for pizza, Chick-fila nuggets, and tater tots, with donuts for dessert lol! Chag Sameach indeed!2

 Well I lost a tiny bit but I always round up >_> Have also dealt with the first two Christmas parties. One I was very well behaved, the other less so lol. So I'm happy that I entered 270something for the first time innnn 7 or so years but should have done better really. Determined to find solid footing in the 270s with next weeks weigh in 
 It looks like you guys who've had your first weigh in this month are all heading in the right direction (and I don't know about you but December is just the worst for me). So big well done @OnlyDragonQueen @AustinRuadhain @mdgivens @Daynacrd and don't worry about that pesky soup @mram3582 - you will smash the rest of the month as usual ^_^3
