Memory is a powerful thing. It has the ability to transport us back to specific places and times (and if you’re like my middle brother, specific dates!) in our lives. Depending on how we’re feeling at any given moment we can easily conjure up the happy moments of births, engagements, first kisses, and yes, great meals and desserts
. Conversely, we can just as easily think about missed opportunities, the loss of loved ones, and moments we’d wished never happened and we can’t get back. Our memory can be a source of discouragement, or even worse, punishment
.If you’ve been reading and/or engaging with the threads on 3FC you’ll notice that lots of folks (I include myself) spend time remembering when we were “more active, was at my goal weight, worked out every day, ate better, could wear___” etc.. We we tend to see where we are as merely a stop to where we want to be without acknowledging and appreciating the current moment. We're human; it’s a natural tendency.
In making this a December to Remember let’s try to use the month to appreciate all the ways we’ve navigated the year. Work long hours at your job, school, or caretaking in any capacity? Be proud of your commitment to the various responsibilities in your life. Did you meal prep or plan at any time during this year? Congratulations on prioritizing your nutrition! Did you find some time to fit in some physical activity this year? Your body is currently thanking you. Did you spend time with people you enjoyed? What a blessing to have wonderful people in our lives! Let’s use the final month of the year to celebrate these moments and successes—however you define success—and continue to put our best efforts into all aspects of our life.
Wishing everyone a merry December filled with warmth and lovely memories



Except I take a break from IF & walking 4 miles daily on weekends. What IF routine do you follow?
...Have you seen a change in how your clothes fit? With all your HIIT exercises I'd imagine you have to be slimming down even if its not reflected on the scale.
Wishing everyone great success as we finish up the year and start anew. I woke up this morning feeling fat and bloated and sluggish. It’s a real eye opener, waking up with an empty stomach feeling like I just finished a buffet. I keep reminding myself how good it felt to lose weight, how good it feels post workout, how different my body feels when eating well. Now every day feels like a plateau/emotional binge day. I keep saying that I’ve got to do something, that I need to get it together, the same old song. It’s daunting, for sure. I literally need to lose an entire half of myself (let’s hope it’s the negative, b***hy half.) Still, so many others have come much farther than I’ll ever have to go, all in the time I’ve been waiting for something in myself to change. All that’s left is to actually do something. So I’ll try again. Why not on a Tuesday?!
your way.
Don't ever forget it! 

Enjoy that Christmas music! That's all I play around here throughout December whenever I'm cooking.
