Can't believe we are nearing the end of 2023! I will be here again! Thanks @quiltingjaine

@_JeffreyD_ For me, a lot of my issues relate to juggling too many things. I revert to my "natural state" during those times. Unfortunately, I have yet to establish a "new normal" for myself. But I am working on it. At 62, I need to stop saying I can do it when I have time in the future....... Note: I have always had…

A quick share. As many of you have heard, I have been off track since early october due to all that has been going on with my parents. Anyhow, this morning, I have my coffee and untracked english muffin with PB on top. I am facing going out to dinner tonight, and decided I need to get my **it together. (if I stop things…

@_JeffreyD_ Ya, I "invited" Ben and Jerry over for dinner last night...... Trying to hang on until the New Year when I will snowbird in the Keys and have consistent "me" time to reset. @CamandJarvis Sorry about your dad's dad and dog. I never understand "disowning". So sorry. I do find your concept of low carb every other…

@_JeffreyD_ Nice to see you back! How lovely you have a new grand daughter. How many grand babies does this make? @FindingSamMon I am guessing we have been out of sync as I don't recognize your name. @deepwoodslady Congratulations on your success. I will say that beyond your weight loss accomplishment, look at the time you…

Adding that I going out for lunch today and out for breakfast on Sunday (catching up with friends for the holidays). I just finished pre-tracking my choices at both restaurants so I can work the rest of the day around those meals. A win for me!

For me, it is when "other" complications come into my life and I can't handle everything as well. Right now I am trying to stop my latest slip up will it is still short lived. This time the complication was my father's death and I am trustee for finances, DPOA for my mother with dementia, and executor for the estate, and…

@Corina1143 @potasha @Cchassee Inspiring photos everyone. Not sure if I have an "befores". December will continue to be swamped with estate work. It is mind boggling. Jan 30, we snowbird and head to the Florida Keys. My responsibilities will be different. Right now, my plan is to join one of the gym options, or start yoga…

I use my laptop for my posting (except for when I went to scotland and I used @Quiltingjaine 's method). I keep a word document open and update it daily, and then cut and paste into my MFP post for the day.

Surprisingly, it is quite comfortable, except for how dry my lips are becoming. Putting my stash of chapstick (that I bought when I started last January) to work! PS technically the two "cross" elastics are night only, but I am actually more comfortable with them in.

Invisalign added elastics today. Certainly will help with spontaneous eating/snacking. :p

Wow! I am so spoiled I guess. I can think of three all under a half hour. Sorry about your iPad. :'(

Last post today, I promise (making up for lost time). Great to see all the new faces, especially BEFORE Jan 1. That said, I feel like during my last couple of months where I have been drifting, many members are gone. Wishing those that we are missing well and hope to see them return, but very glad to see the familiar…
