Hang in there Liv!  

Thinking of you. My trip home to Newfoundland for Christmas was officially canceled yesterday and we now have ticket vouchers.😩 Who knows when we will get to use them. I hope Trudeau forces Air Canada to refund customers. 😬 This year was a year and then some, and I’m sure there’s more to come. BUT, we can’t give up. Fight on we must!! 💪🏻❤️ 

Facing the same struggles myself last week & this. Keep the faith and know that even if you go off road for a bit, you’ll find your way back! 💖 

thanks all for the support. This is why this is a great place. I need to be very clear with myself why I eat so much (learned that for Dr. No) If I am not making myself understand the various reasons I overeat and then try to find alternate methods to deal with issues I will get obese again quickly. This is not enjoyment eating... this is comfort eating. I did better yesterday and the worst may be over this time. But think it will be a hard week. Wifey that is a bummer... is the bubble over?  

Sorry it made you sad and stressed. You'll be back down in no time! 

Sorry it made you sad and stressed. You'll be back down in no time! 

Hang in there, Liv. This has been a wild year, but things are soon going to turn for the better. If we can hold on just a bit longer, it's all gonna be all right. You're not alone in this. Happy Holidays!  

It’s so tough and COVID makes it worse. Tomorrow will be better. Just chalk this day up to a slip and move on. 

Yes, Liv. Our Atlantic bubble burst a few weeks ago. :( 

Sorry you feel so sad hope everything gets better keep up the good work 😊💗🙏🤗 

I'm really sorry you're having a tough day. I get it. But like my mom used to tell me whenever I had the blues, "Your day is what you make it". (I eventually learned she was right). I'm sending good vibes your way!🙏❣ 

I'm sorry to hear that. So far we are able to have small get togethers. Sending you hugs!💜💜 

Yes. Our bubble is over. Sad stuff liv. 😞 

I'm new to keto, still enamored with it in the honeymoon phase if u will. Thot it wud be way harder but monk fruit sweetener and cloud bread has saved me. It's nice to c role models like yourself who've adopted the lifestyle and stuck with it and come so far. I hope that I can do the same. Take care.  

Liv, I think many of us are doing the same this Christmas. We can be grateful we can do our part to stop this spread. That turned out to be a pun...ooops. We get this Christmas so we can have a bigger one next year!!! Hugs! Happy Holidays every day!! 

thanks for sharing @liv; the anxiety, stress, and sadness can be too much; some days it just needs to be more about self-care than the diet and the scale; one day at a time.  

hang in there liv001  

That you all. And thanks for adding and helping with perspective. Cannot feel too sorry for myself. Getting the tree set up today. That is helping 

We have lots of new restrictions and with none of the kids and grandkids here it seems like just another day.🤣 

My cousin in Minnesota got vaccinated yesterday! In Oregon it's likely to be next week that our health care workers will be vaccinated. My sister works at a hospital so she'll let me know when she gets hers. It's still going to take some time to get herd immunity so we'll still have to take precautions but there's hope on the horizon! Hope is like the breaking dawn!!!
