Wow. 2 years goes by in a flash!

 Wow.  Here I am again ... again.  You'll all be pleased to know I DID drop 30 lbs on WW. Plus working out, of course!  I managed to lose during COVID, and even took my weights and mat with me on a 7 day vacation.  And then I quit giving a damn and gained it all back.  I'm 2.8 lbs under where I was in the last post in 2019.  I can't believe how much I yo yo; how on earth to just stay consistent?  To maintain?  WHY is it so HARD????  I was happy with my 30 lbs down, felt great.  I wasn't buying smaller clothes, but my motorcycle chaps fit so loose I had to tighten the waist belt.  Now?  They're back to how they were.  


Well, AGAIN.  Today is the first day of the rest of my life.  Got 4 more months of living my year 42; this is the HARDEST time in office; specialist offices deliver everything from specialty nuts, to cookies, to Nothing Bundt Cakes, to pies, to "crack" (candy corn and peanuts).  Patients bring us donuts and cookies and lunch.  It's pretty dang hard to say no to that, but learn to say no I must.  WW was awesome, it really helped me to understand how to eat better.  I wasn't able to continue my membership, b/c David lost his job due to COVID and just works at home now.  I'm back to tracking in My Fitness Pal; started today in fact!  All food tracked, goal is just to simply not eat outside of the tracked food, and keep the chili under strict portion control; 1 cup!  Excited to begin again, and STAY on track this time :)
