I love jeans. Skinny skinny skinny, giant 70s bell bottom, rockabilly crop – I'll take them all! Although I'm yet to be convinced about this Tencel revival.

P3 Day 15 and I'm still stable at 1.3 pounds over where I ended P2. It had been 2 pounds over for a few days and I was starting to feel some kind of way about it, but I also got my second vaccine shot (woo hoo!) in that time so who knows? I'm debating doing a second round. On the one hand, I'm at the size I hoped for when I started this round. On the other, I feel like I chose to stop here because I didn't want another round to disrupt my friends' social plans for summer – say what?! Why am I more concerned with minimally inconveniencing others than I am with making myself happy? I need to sit with this for a bit.

Lol Karbee!

Nice stabilizing!! The shot probably gave some inflammation. Woohoo indeed!

Yeah don’t eat for others! If it convicts them, that’s on them.

Good morning, Weight Warriors!

What a great inspiration you all are to each other and to me.

I was struggling yesterday. A pound up after a week of perfect macros, more snow, freezing from both hcg and dreary, drizzly cold day: I just wanted to EAT something comforting.

I think I pulled myself together by end of day, went to bed early. Possibly the only thing wrong with me was fatigue from worrying over dog!

And kids. I am dragging my 10th grade niece and college freshman nephew over the finish line at school, helping them organize the zillion assignments they were too “anxious” and put upon to actually do all semester. Many of you are dealing w the same thing.
It’s a pandemic caused by the pandemic.

But I’m back on track today. Down Point 2. Haha. Better than up.

I can do this!!!

Onward!!!!!!!

Hi karbee... I hear you with the whole friends social plans, I live near a bunch of wineries and our favorite thing is to stop by maybe 3 of them and have a glass of wine and some sort of food (some places still make you order food if they serve you wine)....they all went last weekend for a Mother's Day celebration and I made other plans so I had an excuse! They also all know that I am trying to fit into a dress for my son's wedding so I think they do understand but some do give me the ol' "You have to try this wine... one sip isn't going to hurt your diet".... Oh yes it will! lol

Hope the arm is feeling ok from the vaccine... my duaghter got it and had a sore arm but that was about it, thank goodness. I had covid in January. Good job with your stablization!

Tracy, good luck! Hope the remaining days are successful! Skinny jeans club ftw!

Phoebe, totally could be it’s causing hunger. Hope it gets better now that you know!

Good luck, Dubbles!

AFM, 165.4 so two pounds below LDW. Nice wiggle room!! Has some yogurt, two eggs and two slices of bacon for breakfast. Feast!

Hope it’s a good day!

But looks like uptick is now gone. Fingers crossed.

Plan on being on p3 today and tomorrow, then loading for Friday and Saturday, back to P2, vlc eating on Sunday. Anxious to get this round done, and just dedicate the summer to stablizing. Hope everyone else has had a good morning!

Dubbles... I must get your recipe for the fried orange roughy in the air fryer! Sounds great! Glad you are stabilizing well!! Enjoy your last p3 day and loading!!

I can relate with both worrying about the dog and helping the kids!! Both of my kids were/are doing online college right now, my son just finished his semester and now only 2 more classses to graduate with his degree in biology, then off to Nursing school to get his BSN. And my daughter is getting her copy editing certificate after 4 years of college and a degree in Language Arts. I will be happy when they are both done... couple more years it looks like. Glad to hear you are back on track today!!
