    @Chapter_3 So beautiful, those Azaleas! I simply must buy some of those and plant when it is safe to plant in northern Michigan. What a burst of color! Thanks so much for sharing!

    They are pretty hearty plant, but I don’t think they will survive an extended freeze under 25°. They do well here because we rarely have a freeze (rarely in the teens) for more than a few days. Gods gift to the south cuzz our summers SUCK! 🤣

    @chapter_3: your photos are beautiful and bring hope to me up here in the northeast! We're seeing the beginning of bulbs and buds here, but my azaleas are at least a month away. Your photos remind me of my time living on an island on the GA coast, which was such a wonderful place. Thanks for sharing your spring!

    @quiltingjaine :
    It is my plan to post the next round (254) tomorrow from either the hotel or the ship. @Musicsax will post Round 255 as I will be at sea with no internet. I will try to keep up but don’t know where I will have wifi. I still keep notes so I can post when available. I love ❤️ you all!

    Hi All, any help on this? I tried searching for the next round but can't find a link- Thanks!! :)

    @Chapter_3 Gorgeous old live oak trees and huge azaleas! South Georgia? Near the coast? I'm in Tennessee and used to live in Georgia, but closer to ATL.

    @SheilaBoneham Happy Anniversary! You did great on your special day!

    @deepwoodslady I know you can pull it back together. You'll feel so much better after a quick walk then back to your shopping!

    We live near New Orleans on the Northshore of Lake Ponchartrain. A small slice of heaven!

    @Chapter_3 Gorgeous azaleas! Our forsythias are just starting to bloom—the first sign of spring here, along with crocus and daffodils. 🌷🌷🌷🌷

    My name is Krystal by the way! 39 getting ready for 40 this year. Striving to be the best I can be physically and mentally
    SW: 173.7 (this round)
    • This is what I wrote out at the beginning of Round 250:
      ~ My plan for round 250 is to eliminate drinking alcohol on a nightly basis.       Didn’t stick to this one for this last round and it shows! Will try again for round 254. **NOTE** Drinking also makes me get hot in my sleep so not only does it add empty calories but it causes me to eat extra and sleep less.

      ~ Overall: Loss -.3lbs
      ~ Did not make my 172 mini-goal this round, poo!
~ I was a bit out of sorts this week with hubby being gone and Tom compounded the situation. I lacked good sleep and worked overtime so I really didn’t have time to read the posts here (which usually lifts me up and motivates me)
      Overall grade for the week: B for Barely made it under SW or
      B for Blah 😑

      ~ Made my mini-goal of 174. Still making strides to be better at my day to day goals of restricting alcohol consumption.
~ Finished the last 3 days of round 252 strong! No “buts”. It’s worthy to note that I usually add a “But, I couldn’t…” or “But I didn’t hit my mini-goal…” 
~ So here’s to NO BUTS this round!! Lol

      ~ I almost made my mini-goal of 175. Still making strides to be better at my day to day goals of restricting alcohol consumption.
      ~ Finished the last day of round 251 strong but I caved a bit at the end of the day when my husband was craving New York style pizza. I had 2 large cheese slices, Bruschetta Napolitana and 3 butter laden garlic knots.. oh and one of my favorite things in this world: A cannoli! Ugh ! I’m feeling the discomfort as we speak
      ~ I was too nervous to look and see what the carb/calorie count actually was..

      ~ Overall: Loss -3.7lbs
      ~ I’m really proud of myself for achieving the mini-goal I set of weighing less than 177 lbs.
      ~ I broke through a bunch of mental blocks and had a bunch of “a-HAA!!” moments this round. I started competing on Stride kick again       (PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO JOIN ME)
      ~ I remembered that I never felt better than when I was losing weight on the original Keto plan so I went back to basics. This realization prompted me to stop using all substances as a crutch. So I’m feeling very empowered and excited for this next round!
      ~ Onwards and downwards..

    I’m sure @musicsax is going to post the next round. I’m sure she’ll put a link in here soon. Let us know if you have problems. We can just keep posting here until you get it figured out.
