And I may start running regularly, now that I'm being chased 😎

Don't you want to get caught?

Dear gods of IF, weight loss and autophagy,

If you have any "pull" with Santie Claus, could you ask him to absorb a buttload (literally) of saggy, baggy, old lady, elephant skin on my a*s, thighs, and tummy please? I look like a melted sharpei (and not in a good way).

Please help,

Sincerely,

Droopy Draws in H-Town

Apparently my house is dimly lit, because I feel borderline ok naked when I look in my home mirror. But there is something about the lighting in hotel rooms, OMG ... the horror!

Hello everyone!

So a lot less craziness in my life right now. I expect work to be significantly quieter until after the New Year. So that means more time for bs-ing here!

I'm not doing much IF, other than what comes naturally not being much of a morning eater. I'm still experimenting with eating as I please, and seeing what happens to the scale. So far so good, so I'm hopeful for my future in the maintenance phase. But still cautious about still being in the honeymoon phase, and having a lot of restriction, which may not always be the case.

But ...

I've lost 101 lbs!

Well done you!!

I have sat around 61.5 kg for a couple of months but after a good week of running, I must say I felt absurdly pleased this morning to have shed another 400g - because that means:

I HAVE LOST 100 POUNDS!

I might be a bit OCD - that ‘99lbs lost’ was really irking me!

@GreenTealael ... so excited that you un-friend zoned, and got boo'd up!

Now we just need to get @redhead_che a cardio partner, and then all of our regular participants will hopefully be getting their workouts in!

So, my boo'd up situation has a couple of milestone coming up. First family meet will be this weekend. Not Thanksgiving, he has his own family commitments, but we're going to a hockey game with my cousin and his wife. And we have our first weekend getaway booked for January. So, yay!

Topic for discussion .... may have hit a bump in the road ....

What are your thoughts of when in a committed relationship, having each other's phone pass codes?

Some personal background.

I have been cheated on in multiple relationships. The last one really pushed me over the edge. He lived a for real double life, extreme cheating, and very potentially a sexual addiction. Since I'm busy, travel so much, and appreciate my freedom, I've never been one to validate my partner is where they say they are, doing what they say they are doing etc. But his whole double life was right there on his phone, and if I had simply seen that, it would have saved me a world of hurt and humiliation. So, that is why it is important in any future relationships that we have each other's pass codes. Not to check necessarily, but to know that I could. I know that someone determined to cheat, will still cheat, but it's just a tiny bit of peace of mind.

So, I bring this up to new boo, as something I'll need in the future, if things continue to progress between us. He's a way above average communicator, and emotionally mature, so this type of convo wasn't weird. He was pretty taken aback at my request. He said it made him a little uncomfortable and he'd have to think on it. So that honestly worries me a little bit, even though he has never given me any signs I should doubt him. Rational me says trust until given reason not to, but I have been badly burned by doing that ....

Love to hear opinions ....
