Survival Mode Put Us Back to Zero

A lot of you came here many moons ago when I left Sparkpeople.  I loved the community of that place and the support I got there.  It was at the height of us being on our game.  That motivation you have in the beginning when you're consistently rewarded with weight loss, smaller clothes, compliments to keep your motivation high and you somehow begin to step out of being invisible to the public to people smiling at you, opening doors or striking up conversation.  You start to feel human.  You don't have to worry about going to restaurants or 'fitting' somewhere.  You can go to a wedding and see those God awful thin folding chairs and while you still don't like them, you're not concerned.  Many of your worries that fit people never had to think of, have faded away.  We started for the long haul in our 30's and that's when we had the most success, losing 226 and 190 lbs respectively.  When we went on vacation, as long as we came back and got rig...

Merry Christmas!


Right about now, the Mr and I are probably both in a half in and out of it state knowing it's too early to get up it's Christmas morning so ya know.  One of us will finally be the one to move, look over at the other one and say...


Then all bets are off.  He'll do the fastest bathroom run in history while I try to straighten my bod out to get moving for the day.  He'll go down and turn on the lights and Christmas music (my childhood music of 1965's Pickwick's Living Voices The Little Drummer Boy that was taped over from an 8 track so the warbles are in all of the right places.  You can listen with us if you have Amazon streaming)  We'll eat too much crap from our stockings that every year we say we're not going to fill as high but always do, tear through presents within 10 minutes and that'll be that before it's time to head off to the fam later in the day.

Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and hope your day is filled with your favorite things, people and traditions old and new!

Enjoy your holiday or if you're not in the US or don't celebrate...Happy Monday!
