Nope. I can go through a 1 kg jar of peanut butter in a matter of days if I don't restrain myself.

Oh dear, all things in moderation... i still can't figure out how i got this heavy. I think the gravity of the earth has increased.

Well hello cafe folk! Step one, open eyes. Check. Step two, get out of bed. Maybe later

Ok, step 2, check. Step 3 get caffeine, working on it. Going to town, any one need something?

Usually it is slowly over time. We gain 2 to 3 pounds a year- which adds up over time

And it doesn't get easier as you age.

Very true! Somewhere between age 40 and 50 we start losing muscle mass. Less lean muscle makes it harder to lose weight.

One thing that the fitness bands are showing is that Americans are extremely sedentary too. Way worse than was thought because the old information on how much we moved was based on self reporting and apparently people lie about that- maybe on intentionally but still they lie

I mostly gained it during winter in TN and with the deaths of my Dad and Aunt. But yeah, it sneaks up on you especially during holidays.

Actually i thought i might lose some here because i am outside every day, even during the heat of summer. I think perhaps i have built up some muscle mass and lost fat because pants are looser

That is a good thing!

Good job

Thanks for the coffee! Since Sour ate all the cookies, I could pass around the Rum Cake I made yesterday...or is it too early for rum?
