Rie- Oh yeah, I am not generally a stressed-out person but those days definitely get my stress level to a rolling boil, lol. Thankfully those sales are over with and there is nothing too big until Christmas Eve and the day after Christmas. Congratulations on your successful Insanity workout, I have heard that is really hard.

Jamie- Hi there! Glad to see you back again. I don't usually cook so I don't have any recipes, but I did find some Gala apples at Walgreen's the other day. There are three of them and they are $1.99 for three. They are amazing too, I ate two of them by day's end and the third is stored in the fridge. You should definitely give them a try.

Well I got back into the swing of things with a seventy-five minute workout (normal for me is maybe 50 minutes to 90 minutes) and I feel incredible. I can definitely tell more definition in my face, and in my thighs too. I have several NSVs too, which I will make a post on later on. Overall, an awesome day. How was yours?

Thanks Rie! Ugh, I hope we all survive the holidays, it's gonna be tricky
My goal is to brake into 160's by the New Year (we celebrate Christmas Jan 7th, so there are no treats till after NY). Yes, I agree writing is therapeutic, and so is 3fc in terms of weight loss struggles It's awesome that you have worked out yesterday! The important thing is that you did it, and if you haven't done all the moves, doesn't matter, you'll do them next time. Btw, you asked about what Saint are we celebrating, it's a Serbian Saint, Stefan Prvovenčani (which means Stephen the First-Crowned, he was Serbian king in 13th century, and also one of the founder of the church of Serbia)
Namaste I always admire when people pursue education in later years. To me it shows a good character, many would've given up, so be proud! I myself am 1 year late, I've been a freshman at the University of Electrical engineering last year, but I gave up in order to pursue something I really wanted. My parents still frown upon me 'losing a year', but I couldn't be happier about the change Btw, what Biggest Loser workout are you doing? I have also just got back into exercising and I am starting with their 30 Day Jumpstart. Looking forward to hear your NSVs!

Jamie glad you had a good time over Thanksgiving! Don't worry, weight will come of. At least some of it is probably water

Well, I am doing good. I am into right mentality. I finally began working out again, after almost two months! It feels great, I don't know why do I ever not work out. Actually, I started rewatching season 9 of TBL (my favorite cast) and as a first challenge they had to cover a distance of a marathon in couples, on a bike. Half a marathon a person. I found that interesting. One of my main goals, a goal that, when reached, I can say 'I'm fit enough now', is to run a half marathon. And I thought if 400+lbs people can do it so can I. So I did 13.1 mile on my elliptical Sunday afternoon. It took me 65' 15'', but I felt great, I've started the 'get fit journey' with a bang! Mon was rest day (crazy school schedule), and today I did 30min of TBL 30Day Jumpstart. I also ate fairly well, I want to ease into healthier eating, so I allow myself one treat a day 200-300kCal. Because of my height and activity I believe I can lose a pound a week at 1800kCal (my bmr is 1600+), and that is plenty of food, although still much less than I eat on a -normal unhealthy day-. And right now I am not counting calories, but I am writing down and measuring my food. I will be doing the portion control, and if I am not happy with the results I get, then I will start counting calories.

By the way, can somebody explain to me what Black Friday is actually?
