@Apple852hk - It could indeed have been water weight -- often the case with quick weight bounces. I am so impressed at your stick-to-it -iveness. Keep working at making mindful choices, and you will eventually get there! 👐🌊💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽

@its_cleo - I am so sorry the number wasn't what you hoped for this week, but I love that you are thinking about what else could be up, and what you might try changing. Different people have different bodies and brains, and it can take a while to figure out what choices work for you. 🤔😊

@mrmcgrath - Congratulations on a great day, and especially on that lower sugar! 😊🍬👍🏽💪🏽

@hinemoa2088 - What a great steps day you had on Saturday! 👣😊

@Katmary71 - I hope your nerve damage is doing better.
What a great day you had on Saturday! Your consistence and commitment are SO inspiring! Especially this: I've been in the mood to munch but rode it out. 🍬💪🏽🏆
👂📚 As to the audiobook - yes, Eleanor Oliphant is all about routines at the beginning of the book. She is still about routines at the end, but ... not so rigid. She loosens up enough to make some changes that have like work better for her. Definitely a book in which you see someone grow and change.

@TeresaW1020 - What a great day you had on Saturday! And hurray to laundry catch-up! That's one of the things I am doing today! 👍🏽🧺🏆

@Digger61 - Congratulations on the great weigh-in! You are down in the 2-teens now! Keep up the great work! 🏆😊👍🏽

@Renaegry - Woohoo! Congratulations on your weigh-in and on having such a great week for steps! I hope you are enjoying your quiet weekend with no place you have to be. (I am a wee bit envious!) 👍🏽👣

THE WEEK 2 CHALLENGE FROM TEAM WAISTAWAYS IS UP!

Go check it out, and join in to help everyone get through the holiday seasons:
https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10771850/survive-the-holiday-season-s-team-waistaways-week-2-challenge#latest

Hey, guys, Team Waistaways has posted a great challenge to think ahead about holiday strategies.

I posted a couple of strategies I know will be key for me:
-Keep track of what I eat daily. That will have me stay connected to my food plan. Keeping a streak of "stayed on food plan" days is very motivating for me. This will include pre-planning on days that I have a holiday event.
- I'll make my foods ahead of time, and bring them with me (bringing enough to share, if appropriate to the event). At Thanksgiving (we are hosting), that will look like having an array of "on plan" foods for me (with enough to share) and "what everyone else wants and expects." I am actually happy to cook for others and eat for myself!

I've been on a Ketogenic diet now since July 1 and I've lost 25 pounds. I went off for the month of Oct and gained 8 pounds back. Then I started again and lost 5lbs. Now today is my birthday and I had my oldest granddaughter (13) over for a sleepover. I have been eating anything and everything for 3 days now. I'm scared to weigh myself tomorrow. And I need to get back on track. So here's the heads up that I'll probably have gained alot. Plus the water retention Sorry....
I hope everyone's having a great weekend.

I am sure I have asked before. But does anyone have the premium?. Is is worth the money? I see they have some pretty cool programs you can do with premium.

11/10 steps: 13,967

Yes to everything you wrote! For me, it's going to be about planning and tracking! I just started a 100-day challenge with my Beachbody coach and my plan for the holidays is to stick to the goals I've set for myself and not let myself get caught up in the mindless eating that I've done during past holiday events. This year, when I indulge it will be a planned indulgence and it will be tracked.

Hi group I am back. crazy week last week so I did not log. Bad as I got off my Keto. I will be log this week and get more active!! Today I will start with snow shoveling and finish cleaning the garage. My truck is being fixed I hope to be back working on Wensday. So i have time to meal prep for a week or 2 and freeze them. I have been having health proplems the last 2 weeks. I think most off them is caused by my bad food choices. I have a fatty liver and had 30% removed due to cancer. I will check in later today and let you know how the goals today worked out.
