My actual plan is just to stay where I am at for the remainder of the holiday season....we only have a few more events and then life will get back to normal. Right after NY, I plan to do at least 2 weeks Atkins induction and then go from there. I do not eat a lot of carbs now but I think for me it is better to keep them pretty low, mostly just good veggies. Lots of Water, no alcohol. I have many great recipes that I know we like and it was really pretty easy for me previously. I also need to eliminate snack foods, even healthy ones like nuts because I do not have Portion Control with stuff like that. And, I just have to learn how to go to some of our musician friends' gigs AND JUST DRINK Water since they always happen in bars. But, not going is not an option so I need to figure it out.

I have no excuse not to exercise since I have everything I need here or within a 1/2 block....Jim just got me to go for a walk and it was nice. I have Tae Bo, Winsor PIlates and the Firm programs all in my closet. It is stupid really because once I do it I am always glad.

We have the same closet!!😊

I am gone for a few hours and all hell breaks loose! I can't keep up. Whiplash...I love this group!

Let me see...

Deviated from what I knew lead to successful outcomes when the Fluid was removed from my band in February...gained significant weight (25#). Sleeved in October and found the mind that I had lost over those months. Back on track though...

Goals:

• Concussion recovery!!
• Get over the stall and really start losing again. Nothing fast (like I have a choice), but consistent.
• Get back into my awesome clothes...and wear the hell out of them...LBD at the movie theater, Louboutins at the grocery store, Church hats to work on Wednesdays...you get the point!😆😂 And doing it all with my head held high and my boobs/skin hanging low!

Never had tea laxatives, though I am chronically constipated...well not constipated per se, but regular every 4-5 days. Been like this my whole life...the one change is that since I have been taking BP Vitamins, my stool is oddly dark green. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Haven’t done the tea, but a cup of coffee every morning tends to clear me out. And I haven’t done much to track this but I think sugar also does something similar, but more abruptly.

Either way I don’t mind, it’s kind of nice to start the day that way.

Hair loss is awful! BUT, it does grow back. Added benefit-I haven’t had to shave my legs or pits in over a year! I’ll take what I can get!

Speed reading 14 pages, whew!!! What a gamut of topics!!!! Made my morning.

I am nearly 14 months out, lost my drive to track food - it was always my burn out on WW too at this stage - sick to death of tracking y'all.

I have lost and gained the same 3-7 pounds for 4 months. I think it's fear. I look sooo much better, feel better, yada yada. Can I maintain a lower weight and like my maintenance food levels? I am happy, but would def like to lose 20 minimum and 30 would be a dream. Do I like the fantasy of it more than the reality of doing it?

I want plastics, LBL, new uplifted perky boobs, probably arms, thighs - eh, they look awful but that surgery is frightful I hear.

I have a love affair with cashews, helps keep things moving but stalls weight loss big time. I have a herniated rear vaginal wall, and if I don't go everyday I am in trouble. The poop starts to form a 90° angle bulging into the vagina and hella hella uncomfortable.

My Hair loss, sad sad sad state. I have shoulder grazing cut but the ends are dry as a 90 yr old grandma's who-who. I am using a Shampoo now that is so expensive...and it has slowed the shedding and put shine back in. Will keep you posted. I do have fine hairs along the temple about 2" long now if I can keep them. I have super fine hair texture anyway and now see-through scalp. I am super vain about my hair so this hurts 😭😭😭😭

@GreenTealael almost had an orgasm watching that nubian queen in that video...and I am def straight....go for it gf!!!

@FluffyChix thanks for the thread.

Matt - where did you go?

O&D hey there...

Everyone else....we get one thing under control only to be hit by something else to manage, at least we are managing it skinnier....❤

Sharing a new recipe here for all of our little friends!

Let's pretend you're stopped up and need to call MOM. Mkay? Stay with me now...

To find SF MOM is very hard where I live, but you can find unflavored MOM in the Walgreens brand that has no calories/carbs in it. So get a bottle of that...mkay? You still here?

Then there is FINALLY a use for my Tang flavored SF Water drops.

Pour out your industrial strength measure of MOM and squirt a couple of dollops of TANG flavored SF water drops. Maybe add a couple drops of liquid vanilla stevia...

And badabingbadaboom baybeeee!!!! Creamsicle MOM with no calories/carbs! Woot!!!! And it doesn't suck. Seriously. Tastes a lot like a slightly chalky creamsicle.

The End.

You're welcome.

Merry Christmas!
