Hello June! I am ready! We are going to a restaurant tonight for the first time since October! It has a beautiful outdoor area in a garden. It’s been there as a crossroads inn since the 1500s. They smoke their own trout, which look disgusting but taste delicious and are perfect for keto. I’m sure I will have (at least) a…

So happy for you!

We almost did that, and would have if we had not been able to be vaccinated by June. I hope you get your voucher soon! I love Japan.

My plan is to pick up resistance training... The biggest barrier for me is bringing the weights and mat to the living room then putting them back in the garage even though that’s exercise in itself lol. Also, it’s about a15 foot walk so I really need to suck it up.

I have been running around like a chicken with my head cut off—sorry I haven’t posted. Everything has been on point with the exception of the half bottle of champagne I drank last night because.....we finally got vaxxed! Rollout in Germany has been suboptimal, and they just started using the J&J in private practices, no…

So glad you are feeling better and happy you are taking it slow!

Welcome!

May 21-22 Cals carbs and exercise on point. Did a 6 mile hike yesterday and was not out of breath on the steep uphill parts. Hey, I take my victories where I can get them 😀😀

I feel like I’m stuck in one of those dreams where you’re trying to run but can’t get anywhere. (My war with the scale) However, I woke up, challenged my assumption and ran 5k for a PR of 37:08 and am gonna tell the scale to .. well, not going to type that 😀

Thanks so much!

May 15-17 Food exercise and calories were all fine. I got on the scale this morning and was up 3 pounds? I had an allergic reaction to some salami yesterday and had to take some Benadryl. Do you think that could be the cause?

May 13-14 Cals and carbs and exercise on point. No movement on the scale, but a formerly tight pair of shorts is loose.. wish it were warm enough to wear them. @rfsatar , that great news about your contract!

@Megan_smartiepants1970 , I hope you are feeling better.

May 12 Woke up craving celery (what?) so my first meal was that with a cpiple of tablespoons of Zaziki. Dinner was rauchwurst with fried cabbage and broccoli. Pretty good day! Today is Männertag, a ridiculous holiday where all the less than socially upstanding males drag crates and crates of beer to the riverfront and…

May 11 All I ate today was flank steak and an unadorned enormous cheeseburger. I feel like a caveman. Well, maybe they didn’t have cheese.

I just wanted to thank you for being an inspiration and cheerleader for so many. Your success is well deserved and you are more than paying it forward.

May 9 Happy Mother’s Day! 🌷🌸🍾 Ate too much, drank too much but the weather was glorious and life was grand. Spent the day wandering in the park near our house where there are three castles and a winery overlooking the river. Back to it today!

Welcome!

Haha I hear you on the in laws thing. Thank goodness they’re in New Zealand or my liver would have exploded years ago

May 8 Cals ✅ Carbs ✅ Exercise—-we went on a 12 mile hike, so ✅✅✅😀 NSV- I pulled my button fly shorts off without undoing the buttons 😂

May 7 My scale finally surrendered! Down into the next decade. Yay! It took me 5 weeks to lose 3.6 lbs. I really need to up my game. In February, my weight trend app predicted I’d hit goal (normal BMI, then reassess) in July. Now it’s pushed to October. NOT COOL, Happy Scale.

May 6 A great day! Cals, carbs, exercise, logging ✅ Now, if only the scale would bend to my will....

May 2-5 Cals✅❌✅✅ Carbs ✅✅✅✅ Exercise ✅✅✅❌ Logging ✅✅✅✅ This logging thing is really forcing me to examine my food and ..ahem...adult beverage intake. I’m really interested in seeing my Monday weigh-in. Edited to add May 5th. It’d be nice if I could keep track of the date.

WOE is short for “ way of eating”. Lots of acronyms on MFP (lol) Welcome!

May 1 Food logged ✅ Cals and carbs✅ Exercise✅ So far so good! Tomorrow we will be told when we are scheduled to be vaccinated. CANNOT WAIT. I really need to get back to the US to see my dad. He’s 83 and needs me to help him with some administrative and computer stuff. I also hope to get to Scotland to see my daughter at…

@Megan_smartiepants1970 sending you healing vibes!

Happy May! My goal this month is accurate logging. It’s been getting loose around the edges and affecting my results. Back to it!

I’m fighting a battle with my &&@“”& scale, but I lost .5 inch off my hips and 1.5 off my stomach, so I guess there’s that. On to May!

Butts or Guts. Ha. I love it.

It must be such a relief getting the fam vaxxed. Congratulations!
