    Hi Trooworld , it’s not a thing I just made it up to sum my style of timid start, gasping at the first sentence that I would never say out loud, to all barrels out on bad days. Maybe avalanche was not the best word because while it exposed some deeper fear roots ultimately responsible for a specific reaction, there’s no destruction nor burying under 😁.

    I do celebrate Christmas, too. Fun fact my go to Christmas meal is stuffed cabbage and I got carried away yesterday and now we have 87 pieces- so come on over friends!

    Merry Christmas everyone and lots of 🎁🎄❤️!

    Merry Christmas to my Slimpossible family! Love all of you! I keep in touch with a friend's son, she passed away about 10 years ago and I think he thinks of me as an older sister and he started telling me about his marriage issues which was totally uncomfortable so I drank a little too much chocolate liquor trying to counsel him. Last night was Christmas Eve at my parents with my brother's family then I came home this morning, we had quite the storm so I wanted to get home. I worked out, put on my PJ's and new slippers, and lay around with the cats all day in my peaceful home catching up with friends and family, it was perfect. Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas!

    How much weight can a person gain in one week? I was +5 yesterday but salt was definitely part of it. Things should be better going forward. @TeresaW1020 - I did have that frosted cookie for you. :)

    Had a nice quiet holiday with just the 4 of us. Went overboard with the food I made, that's something I have to work on. Took a long walk with husband yesterday, then a second long walk with my daughter. Didn't beat my all time record, but got in over 23,000 steps!

    @GabiV125 I think avalanche sounds like a good word, the words just spew out like an avalanche. I think it should become a thing! :) Oh my gosh, 87 pieces of stuffed cabbage! I love stuffed cabbage but have never made it because it seems so labor-intensive. I hope you had a great Christmas!

    @bgame4 Congrats on the loss and Merry Christmas to you as well!

    @Katmary71 Funny story about drinking too much and communicating: Christmas Eve, I drank too many Moscow Mules and I got on Facebook and told this couple that are acquaintances that I loved them lol. Luckily they responded back with the same but I was a bit mortified for a while. It sounds like you had a great Christmas, I'm glad!

    @Cornanda A lot of that is probably water weight. I think a lot of us went overboard on the food. Great job with the walks!

    Hi all. I hope you had a great Christmas. I had a Christmas lol. That's right, no adjective. Just a Christmas. Just another day. But I'm over it and on to looking forward to the new year ahead.

    Happy Boxing Day everyone! I always feel like I haven’t posted in two or three days, and start catching up and realize how long it’s been! So much going on with so many over the past while, I am sending much and many hugs and love to you all!
    I have not even climbed out of bed yet (it’s 8:45) this morning, I was determined to catch up on everyone’s news before beginning my day.
    I hope everyone had the Christmas they were hoping for, this can be such a tough time of year♥️.
    I am going to take some time later on today to reflect on the last year and set goals for the new year.
    Last week when I maintained, I was very surprised, this week when I gained 3.8 pounds I was not surprised at all🤣. Having weigh in day right after Christmas day is not good timing LOL.
    I will be posting later today, just wanted to say that I am thinking of everyone!

    This week is Fat2Fit recruiting week! If you have any friends who might be interested in joining our team(s), now's the time. We can always use a few more to fight those statistics with us - keep going past the new year resolutions, keep losing weight, stop gaining it back afterwards.

    Here is the link - share away! And if you are already a member, you do NOT need to sign up again.

    Hi Team! I’m doing a quick check-in. I see you are all doing well. Many of us ate and drank too much but that is OK. The holiday is over and now we can concentrate on the New Year and how we are going to make it the best one EVER!! I spent the last two days taking down all my Christmas and my house is looking fresh and clean and just what I need for the week that lies ahead. Tomorrow, I will do the church and go grocery shopping. I haven’t stepped on the scale in four days. :#:/

    I cannot remember when I posted last but eating Christmas cookies all day is no good. Now that it's all behind me I'm studying on how to tackle this problem. I'm thinking of trying keto again with I. F..

    Welcome @adoglover! 2022 will be exciting for sure!
    @TeresaW1020 You have your hands full that’s for sure! I will sure be thinking of you in this upcoming week!!
    Reflecting over the last year, I am pleased with my progress, especially the last half of the year :-). I think I have figured out for me the key thing is keeping it extremely simple! I think trying to get involved in many challenges and more complicated ways of doing things, although it is very appealing to me, I get bogged down in all of it. My key for the last six months which seem to work was simple calories in calories out and checking in with this group. I also do a lot of meal prep, so I always have simple healthy meals ready to go in my freezer. Tracking my protein and trying to keep my protein at 140 g seems to be key, It keeps my hunger at bay and I have a good amount of energy (trying to eat enough early in the day!). The last thing that has become really important is getting exercise every day. Some days that might just mean getting out with Vannie for a really good brisk walk, but I definitely love going to the gym and doing spin classes and antigravity classes! I really need to get back into weight training! I’m starting to get saggy LOL
    Today was not a great day for eating, but I had already known it would not be. I had to have my traditional turkey with stuffing in a bun! It was delicious!! Now all of that food is gone from my fridge, sent home with everybody else, even the leftover delicious pies LOL!
    Back on track tomorrow I have two casseroles ready to bake and the turkey barley soup will hopefully be in the slow cooker tomorrow!
    Looking forward to a new start! Goals for the up coming year…10 lbs left to lose, would love to do that by the end of February! Then spend the last of 2022 learning how to just maintain a healthy lifestyle and weight. I don’t even know what that looks like, I think most of my adult life I have been in weight loss mode, or yo-yo mode!
