The pounds all came back, with friends, because I am one of the 95% for whom that happens.
Yeah, I'm fully on board the "diets don't work" train, BUT I also can't fit into most of my outside clothes, so I'm going to try some minor changes to see what is sustainable.
DH has been on a strict keto diet since he was diagnosed with diabetes almost two years ago. He lost 40 lbs and his sugars have been in the normal range with no drugs. He loves meat and veggies, so he’s pretty happy. I am still eating carbs, but less of them, and I’ve cut out refined sugar altogether. Not diabetic and I want to stay that way. Also, I have NO willpower, somI can’t cut down on sweets. I can eat none, or all the chocolate in the world all day long.

That's reasonable. And smaller weight loss amounts are probably a lot more sustainable and enough to make a difference.
One of my favorite breakfasts on that diet was two scrambled eggs and half an avocado with salsa and sour cream. You have to not go crazy with the salsa to meet the carb limits, but you don't need a lot to get flavor.

That's what happened to me as I slid back into carb-land, plus my joints started hurting more.
I have never heard of Super Duper Burger before, and am intrigued but the closest one to me is across a bridge so probably not something I will experience any time soon. Someday I will see a sign and think "I should try that" I am sure.
That's interesting about the submarines. I am particularly boggled to learn that "first sea lord" is a meaningful term, apparently.
I have been ordering a few things in my size, and the jeans I just tried on are comfortable and a good fit. Now I just need to do a load of laundry so I can wear them while I'm out and about tomorrow running errands and getting a haircut.
There is also a tradition of displaying a broom: [link]
Is that more war as a sport or sports being like war, I wonder
Timelies all!
Sigh...a local folk-rock band we like was playing an outdoors concert in downtown Bethesda, so we decided to go there and get dinner near the concert site. Alas, Mr. S was totally disregulated, culminating with him running away from us in the parking garage. Seems like he's forgotten how to behave when out to eat.
