This week (12/1-12/8) I really have to reel in my beer intake. It has comprised the majority of my calories for the past 2 weeks. Guess I relaxed too much with the family and holidays.

Hello everyone! With Thanksgiving behind us and December coming up on Monday, I wanted to create a weight loss challenge and support discussion here on MFP. I figure the last month of the year is always the hardest due to the holidays! Anyone is welcome to join, just fill out this form on Monday and post weigh-ins weekly! Continued motivation and support throughout each week is strongly appreciated and encouraged!

Just realized I accidentally put my goal weight 2 lbs lighter than I intended. I think I will keep it that way though - extra motivation!

I had a friend request from someone, I believe from this post because she said we had similar stats, she is 5' 1" and 145... The avatar/pic was of a meme that went something like "Should, Would, DID"... I clicked the wrong button and declined the request when I really wanted to accept. If you see this, please resend? Thanks!!

I lost a lot of weight a few years ago and over the past two years it has started to creep up. I just need to get back in good exercise and portion control habits and I find it really hard to find the time! I have a very busy household!!
