    Ues way over did it this Xmas.

    Just so everyone knows this is not my official weigh in. My official is on Tuesdays at work on a shipping scale, while for this challange I will be weighing in at home. Not sure which is more accurate, and one has less clothes on so that is why any diffrence between any posted weights.

Darn peanut butter.... so delicious, but only good for you in very small doses! It's so hard to say no to it, though... I can totally motivate myself to get in a run after work on a Friday though, right? :)

    I started declining right around Halloween, and had a few good days between there and Christmas. The last two weeks have been back to my old habits and gained 6 pounds. i am so ready to get back to my lifestyle of tracking and being accountable. thank you for the posting this . . . I needed it! Good luck to everyone and Happy New Year!

    Good for you!!!! And better to slightly annoy a waiter (even though I'm sure you didn't!) than regret your food choices. Way to stick to stick with it!

    Struggles or successes of your week - Getting past the "I'm still on vacation" mentality is going to be tough. In better news, I think I've started the year off right with a 2.015 mile race last night. It's amazing that it took us both a few minutes to figure out why there was that additional .015... haha. Here's to a great new year!

    Hello again, everyone! This discussion is a continuation of my December 2014 Challenge! I wanted to take the challenge into the new year, seeing as how many of us (namely myself) may have fallen off the wagon and need to get back on for a fresh start. So here we go! Just come back on Thursday, January 1, and post your stats to join. Weigh-ins will be every Thursday, but feel free to alter the dates and choose your own weigh-in day of the week. Good luck guys and gals!
