Merry Christmas !

What a sweet baby, so adorable. I picked out Yaya for my mom when I was a teen, long before I ever had a baby because I heard it and thought it suited her. Its easy to say. My dad wanted to be Grampa. But it just wasn't sticking with my daughter. She ended up calling him papaw. The other Grands are Nanny and Grandad…

Happy 🦃 day, Friends! I hope you all have a great day! I got the green light from my coach to indulge on carbs including pie. We talked about doing so mindfully.

@Tomsgal1985 Fantastic loss!

@Tomsgal1985 Awesome picture. It looks like you had a fun family visit. @murdog3t Your doing fantastic with your daily goals! @DaffyGirl88 How was the Big Apple? @HASWLRS How is your dad doing? Are you doing ok?

@HASWLRS Lisa, that is awesome! Those 2lbs will shed off quick I'm sure. It sounds like you've been working hard and got quite a bit accomplished.

Sometimes I would eat something even thinking about how I wasn't going to feel good after eating but I still would indulge. Its weird how we do things like that to ourselves.

@murdog3t Looks like you had a successful day!

@HASWLRS Keep strong! Do you have an appointment for a specialist or phsyical therapist yet?

I guess because it is out if my norm it feels a little indulgent and how much I look forward to it. But just a few months ago I was drinking several sodas without even thinking about it.

@DaffyGirl88 Have fun at the race. Can't wait to see the costume!

... How much coffee do you think is too much?I've gone from 1-2 cups a day to 3- 4 to keep some of my "hunger" away and I've been feeling a little guilty.

I can only have heavy whipping cream so I've been buying Starbucks pumpkin spice coffee kcups and they have it in the regular ground coffee bags. But I'm sure those will be gone soon as well.

I sat a bowl of candy out on the porch and they were 3 snickers left. We wanted to watch scary movies and it's stressful on the pups for the doorbell to keep ringing.

@HASWLRS An outdoor kitchen sounds awesome! I hope you'll enjoy it once it is all complete. My porch needs to be replaced too. It wasn't taken care of before we moved in. My daughter helped my father in law jack it up and replace the posts that had rotted but thats as far as we've gotten. I'd love to have it screened in so…

We had to go out and buy candy yesterday. It was almost all gone. Staying away isn't much of an issue for me anymore. I have found that I enjoy 95% dark chocolate and one piece is enough to satisfy my craving. I can have up to 80% as long as I have room in my carb budget.

@DaffyGirl88 It sounds like a good time @Tomsgal1985. Awesome day! I'm not liking the changes that were made to the fitbit app!!

@DaffyGirl88 How was your trip to Buffalo?

@HASWLRS So good to see you back. I'm so glad you were able to go and visit your son. I hate that your knee is still sore but it's good that are able to get some walking in.

Weigh in 176.3 I will be taking a break from the challenge so I will not be here for October. I wish you all the best. I will still be working on my weight loss goals. I'm just having trouble keeping up with posting.

Weigh in 176.8

My weekend was busy and I forgot my weigh in 177.4

I'm still keeping with a low carb plan. I've gotten kinda relaxed and have not been good at logging and weighing food. So, I plan on getting back on track with that. I want to hear about your plans. What kind of plans are you making to work toward your weight loss goals?

That's fantastic there wasn't issue with your dad getting his license renewed. I understand what your saying about the carbs. Good for you for staying away from the pasta. Carbs were such a trigger food for me, since going low carb it's become a lot easier to control the amount that I eat. I have been a lot more quiet here…

Weigh in Friday PW 179.8 CW 179.4 Sorry for the late weigh in

Hi Lisa! It's so good to see you back!

I hope everyone is having a great weekend. My new baby Blue Heeler doesn't let me sleep past 6. So no more weekend sleep ins. But its a quarter to 8 and she is sound asleep. 😴
