    Things are looking good! Lots of green (losses!) and only 5 more weigh-ins due by 8 am (Eastern US/Canada) Sunday:
    @socajam
    @bionicpuffy
    @Anniesquats100
    @pipsqueak34
    @Stefbomb2020

    No one will be penalised for late or no weigh-ins this week - it is a bit of a mess for the app on Android, and everyone is scrambling a bit. I hope you can get there and record the weights for the week, but don't panic if you cannot!

    I’ve been wanting to try the tuna ‘cups’ that some people make in small cupcake tins prepared as snacks. I think they would satisfy a salty craving — but maybe not. I tend to lean toward savory and umami flavors so I’m starting to wander here! 😬

    Hi @PatriceFitnessPal I'm a Captain from another team and saw your message about tuna cups...I'm intrigued...what can you tell me about them as I LOVE tuna and frequently take the tuna pouches to work and make sandwiches for my lunches. This might be something I'd want to try...you can send me an email to jakrall@cox.net or find me in the TrimStones chatroom...would love to hear a produce reference and/or recipe if you have it.

    Thanks...love some of your snack and tea/chai ideas...
    Take care!

    @jessicakrall8 - I’ll also try to find the TrimStones team space - but the new format might make it tricky until we can learn to navigate the site - so, I’m posting a couple of recipe links here:

    https://chickenofthesea.com/foodservice/recipes/albacore-tuna-muffin-cups

    https://starkist.com/recipes/tuna-salad-cups

    I heard the idea from someone in an Accountability buddy thread I follow. I think people who follow a keto diet might have other ideas so that might be another MFP group worth checking for recipes. Thanks for all the work you do for the Fit2Fat and TrimStones groups!

    Well my first night out in 18 months didn't work out and I got pinged to go and get a PCR test which is done and now to await the result!

    Great work on the weight loss everyone!

    We had a night out at a bar with a live band last night. I can’t even remember the last time we did that! I’m up a pound as a result but hopefully mostly sodium. I was good and only had one glass of wine.

    Hope you get good test results soon; the waiting would give me anxiety!

    Thank you @PatriceFitnessPal,
    I've been looking for ways to increase my protein intake. Coincidentally, I just had some tuna today. I like to add some diced celery, bell pepper, carrot, and a little habanero pepper for a kick. I usually just have sandwiches, but sometimes I'll make tuna patties. But these tuna "muffins" look delicious and convenient, so I'm going to give them a try. I also enjoy adding some tuna (or canned chicken breast) to some white gravy and have it over drop biscuits.

    I might also try that "muffin" recipe with chicken in place of tuna. I'm looking for more variety in ways to increase my protein intake.

    @socajam - Best wishes managing everything in the next couple of months. I’m sending a link to a MFP thread that might be useful in maintaining the progress you’ve made:

    https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10787818/minimum-basic-and-preferred-habits#latest

    I’ve heard it can be productive to take a break. The main idea of the discussion above is to focus on minimum-level habits that help us keep a healthy routine when life is overwhelmingly busy. I clear plan can prevent us from slipping too much during the break. We’ll look forward to your renewed energy and perspective when you return in the new year!
