Hello everyone! I hope you all had a Merry Christmas! We had a nice holiday with the family. My boys were very happy!
I am so far behind on everyone's posts, I have so much catching up to do.
@cyndiesstuff I am so sorry your pain is not improving. Food can definitely affect your body. Did you ever try 23 and me, the DNA test? It is supposed to tell you what health issues may affect you. That may help you to narrow down your causes of pain.
@lenka1 you are so pretty! Beautiful picture!
I was down at my weigh-in on Saturday, but I am back up again. I do not want to just eat whatever during the holidays, but that seems to be what I am doing. I am going to try to stay on track the rest of the week and probably go off-track on New Year's Eve. We go to my brother in law's and we usually pick on food and have some good beverages. If I can stay on track until then, I should be in good shape. I packed my food for the day, going to workout when I get home and eat a light dinner. Basically I am just trying to get through the holidays without too much of a gain. I am trying to be realistic.
Have a wonderful day and last week of 2018!

@DananaNanas said “I live like 15 minutes from Cedar Point”.
Omg - that’s one of my favorite places to go, but I’m about 3 hours from there! I haven’t missed a year since I was a kid!!2 -
@sleepymom5 I love your pic! What a great looking family!
As far as my clogging, it’s mostly for fun but we perform whenever we are asked. Our favorite audience- the people at nursing homes!!! We did perform a Christmas show for a collection of group homes. It was so much fun and we got to stay and dance with the residents from the homes.4 -

Ended up doing a lot of cleaning and it wasn't a rest day at all. I did ride my new stationary bike but wasted a lot of time trying to figure it out. I am under on steps today but my feet are so tired I can't even think of doing a walking video. Tomorrow is a busy day, going to the trainer, then going with my daughter to the dermatologist, and then heading to NJ to go to dinner with friends. I am supposed to stay at my friend's house but not sure if I want to. I guess that will be a last minute decision.
@ljdanny Sounds like you are really doing well! I love that you got some fitness gifts this Christmas!
@DananaNanas Hope you had a nice Christmas.
@kirsten11872 Sounds like you have a good plan to get through the New Year! Hope you had a nice Christmas!
@lennoncpa That sounds like a great group to be part of! You get exercise and get to entertain people! I am sure the nursing home residents love to see your performances.
@eminater I am so glad you checked in! I thought we lost you! The holidays are tough. Hopefully you can get right back on track.5 -
Back home from Christmas in the mountains, and back to work tomorrow!
I didn’t track my meals for the last few days, and I feel like my sweet tooth got best of me unfortunately. But a family member did mention they were impressed with the amount of veggies on my plate at dinner, lol.
Went to Banff on Christmas Day, and met a new man, pic attached!6 -

Daily check in for: Wednesday
Logged: Yes and under
Water: 64oz
Exercise & Steps: 15 min on bike and only 7162 steps
I didn't exercise as much as I would have liked yesterday and didn't get my steps in either. I would have done a walking video quick but my feet really hurt. I think it is from wearing heels over the holidays. Christmas eve mass was a killer and we weren't there in time to get seats. Today they do feel better. I plan to go to the trainer and time permitting do the bike or the walking tape. The bike is a little complicated now. It seems like you have to take a class to get it to work. By a class, you hook up your tablet and there is an app that you can take classes. I figure out how to just get on the bike and have it go without the tablet. I am sure there is a way to do it manually but I haven't figured it out yet. Since I am in a hurry, I will probably just do a walking tape. I have a lot of running around to do and then I need to get to NJ this afternoon. I am debating weather I will stay over or not now. I really need to get some healthy food in the house. I guess it depends what I can get done before I have to leave. Tomorrow is my weigh in day. This morning I was way up, weird thing is, I feel really light. Lol! I was shocked! Oh well, I will drink a lot of water today. I also plan to eat "breakfast for dinner" as we are going to a diner for dinner. So that will be easy. No drinking as I will be driving so this shouldn't set me back.
I need to get back into a good routine. I was doing well planning my day the night before, my meals at least the day before, reading my book...I have to get back to that, I am not doing too bad but it is a lot easier when you plan!
Hope everyone has a great day! It is almost 2019! Where does the time go?
@twyla77 Lol! That’s so funny! Sounds like you had a nice Christmas!
@bbcbw maintaining isn’t bad. Keep it going!
@amsandos good plan! You are right, you don’t need to wait for the new year to start!3 -

It is hard to put into a picture what changed about me this month. I am pretty sure this is the first December that I actually did something about not going overboard during the entire month because of the holidays. I always didn't want to gain weight but I never actually had a plan so I wouldn't. And yes, I am up a bit after Christmas but I got right back on track and I enjoyed the holiday without guilt. So for my picture, I am sending a picture that I took to send to my daughter to see what she thought about my outfit. As I got bigger, I just stopped caring and just wanted to be comfortable. Now I actually care and try to look nice. As you can see from the picture, I don't really even know how to send a pic of my outfit because the camera is covering up part of it.Lol! The neckline is cute and has some embellishment on it. Also Shannon talked me into getting bigger frames. I look like Chicken Little Lol! Before I looked like Mrs Clause so I guess I am going in the right direction?
I just noticed Daisy watching me from the bed Lol!5 -

For Transformation Thursday, I'll use my winter jacket!
My winter jacket has a little "belt", which I can loosen or tighten. When I bought my winter jacket, I was unable to even put it on the first button, when closing my jacket (see first picture)
However, earlier this week, I was able to put it on the second button, meaning there's now a clear waistline

Daily check in for: Wednesday
Logged: No
Water: Not enough
Exercise & Steps: 12091 steps
That was not unexpected. I am feeling really quite crappy about it. I was 137 lbs on October 10th. that's 16 lbs in 2 and a half months. Holy Toledo. Wrong way clyde. I am gathering from this that the diet I was on was not sustainable. Good thing I am going to try again. I will not give up. even though right now I want too. I have given up before and that is how I gained weight till I reached my highest of 196 lbs. I can't quit. it hurts more to quit than to stay on path. I just want to cry about it. and I probably will.4 -
@Mrsbell8well They are so cute!
@ihp2015 What an awesome transformation!
@cyndiesstuff I am curious, do you think you have inflammation with all the pain you have been having? Maybe that is part of your gain. It is Christmas time too-maybe drink up with the water too. I am not looking forward to my weigh in tomorrow. Lol!2 -
Hey Everyone! I've just joined the group for the January challenge. I am excited about joining a group for support and accountability. I keep wanting to lose weight, but am unmotivated and lack will power.
Anyway, starting weight as of yesterday is 164 (home scale is usually 5 lbs lighter than at the gym or doctor's office, but I'm going with it.)3 -
@cyndiesstuff: I know exactly how you feel, Cyndie! It's so frustrating when a diet isn't working, but you've done it before, and you can do it again! Have a good long cry and then get right back at it!
I also have been going up and down the last few months, but no more! Let's vet back to our team's motto of just one day! Just for today, I still very 10,000 steps. What are you going to do today?2
