They're telling us we'll be vaccinated by June, so there's a chance. I am trying not to be hopeful but I want to get to Vegas this year so fingers crossed! Its the federal government's call though. We'll see what they say.

Ack, I'm having such a hard time accessing the community lately. I think my phone is starting to give up the ghost. Its hard to believe its basically April already. I could not figure out why turkey was on sale at the store and then it clicked that Easter is seriously next weekend. :0 I did OK in March, losing 3 pounds.…

CW: 164 Probably because I've been slamming painkillers. Its actually down a whole pound from yesterday. My water weight fluctuations are always so big. :(

@PlaneMonkey I made it, its quite simple. The recipe: 2 cups of strong coffee 3 tablespoons of zero calorie sugar substitute (I use Swerve) 1 packet of Knox gelatin 1/4 cup water Whipped cream Make 2 cups of coffee and combine with the sweetener in a sauce pan, bringing it to a heat just before boiling. Mix water and…

Sorry I've been absent. I'm sick. :( But I wanted to share this coffee jelly with you because it turned out so well. This plate is 40 calories, almost all of which is the whipped cream. It tastes like mocha and its got caffeine and protein so its like the perfect food. XD

I dyed my hair and took the MOST flattering picture of me and my cat. I have to share. 🤣

CW: 162.8 I guess it wasn't a fluke last week. :0 Not that I'm complaining! I'm less than 10 pounds from that border between overweight and not, so that's exciting. My tax refund came in this weekend so we booked a high end hotel for our anniversary in June, and a trip to Vegas for October to see a concert. I really hope…

Today is shot, our favorite supplier sent us US girl guide cookies. Man, Americans have no idea how good they got it compared to Canada lol. Having nostalgia for the days we lived close to the border so we'd pop over for groceries.

CW: 163 I weighed myself 4 times in 4 locations and that was the number. I don't trust it but what can I do. So here's what I figure about myself. At any given time, I'm carrying 5-6 pounds of water that I can't get rid of. Then my time of the month rolls around and it all drops off. I'm anticipating a gain next week with…

@conleywoods Raya and the Last Dragon was ok. That's it. It's worth seeing, visually stunning, well acted and has great music. The action sequences are perfectly choreographed. Its just very shallow. What story there is, is predictable and full of holes. Very little is explained and it didn't feel like there were any…

Husband and I have the same song stuck in our heads. The second I stop focusing it starts playing in my brain again. He starts humming it at random. All of our conversations/texts are now song lyrics. So that's how my Friday is going. XD We're gonna pay for access to Raya and the Dragon on Disney+ and make popcorn tonight.…

I discovered Sabaton and now I can't stop learning about history through Swedish heavy metal. Ask me about the Swiss Guard! XD It makes really good exercise music because I'm all fired up lol. I'm in a good mood this evening. Happy Wednesday everyone! I'm glad my silly little poem brought some smiles also. Years of…

A Tuesday poem: This is just to say I have eaten The raw cookie dough That I bought At the grocery store And which I probably shouldn't Have had For breakfast Forgive me It was delicious So sweet And so satisfying

CW: 166 I got nowhere in February so... March! Fresh starts, etc. =P My extremely realistic goal is get and stay under 165 this month. My not realistic but hopeful goal is to get to 160. I'm aiming for the middle as usual. Welcome and welcome back everyone, to a hopefully warmer and productive March. My name is Amber, I…

Its on Reddit, and I'm not supposed to link back to it, the group is kinda selective. But here's the description:

I did not eat any of the Buster Bars in the lunchroom despite wanting sugar more than I wanted air. It was hard, I was exhausted and stressed, but I did it. 450 calories for ice cream was just too many. My employee review today was an hour long and left me feeling like a boiled potato, all hot and mushy. But it was…

Before: ~ 270 lbs After: ~ 170 lbs Still a little ways to go.

The hoodie I bought myself for my birthday showed up and, at size L, is a little loose! Plus its gorgeous! I haven't worn clothes without an X on them since my teens, gosh. Excuse the workplace bathroom selfie I'm just excited.

CW: 167 Apparently this is my number! Honestly though, maintenance during a week which had both my birthday and weight training is something to be proud of so I'm counting this as a win. We hit the gym yesterday, its open on a per-appointment basis for personal training only, so there was barely anyone there and lots of…

Liposuction is the only non-deficit guaranteed solution to small fat pocket removal. I've heard cool sculpting actually does work for some people as well, though I have not researched it in depth. Neither of those are pills though.

I ate like... 3000 calories today lol. But it was a good birthday. Another spin around the sun and I'm still kicking. :)

So far Swerve (non-brand name: erythritol) is the only sweetener I can stand. I've tried almost all the others and they're gross. By itself, raw, it has a slight aftertaste but I don't even notice it mixed in with other things. The caramel tasted exactly the same as if we'd used sugar. Which is good because creme caramel…

The... Japanese prefecture?

We made Purin, also known as creme caramel, for Valentines Day. Its only 160 calories each and turned out pretty well. Turns out Swerve caramelizes as well as sugar.

CW: 167 I dunno, maybe this is just what it is. I don't seem to be able to go lower. :(

We finally got the kotatsu together! Its got a cozy comforter and very warm heater and i finally don't feel so frozen.

CW: 166.4 Been a while since I saw a drop so this is good. :)

I did it. 50 minutes of Ring Fit on a Tuesday night. Didn't wanna. But I did anyway. @mbakhtiaruz I am in the same boat. Everything feels bad and its very hard to set goals for a future that looks so bleak. You're not a loser my friend, even if you feel that way sometimes. You are a human being going through some miserable…

We got a random meal delivery with fresh pasta and this really delicious garlicky marinara sauce that would probably taste amazing just eating it out of the jar with tostitos. So that's probably what we'll end up doing Saturday night. XD The pasta we'll eat tomorrow with grilled chicken. High calorie for sure, but I'll…

CW: 167 I've been a champ at maintenance for the last 2 months but loss has eluded me. So February, its on. Lose or bust! My goal is 145 after all. Can't stop here. That said, my birthday and Valentines Day are both this month just 4 days apart so... cut me some slack on that one. Lol. For those who don't know or don't…
