    Not sure I am going to meet my goal this month. I started off strong, but TOM is kicking my butt, and letting my eating get a little out of hand this weekend. Need to buckle up!! I need to at least hit my 50lbs lost mark which is only another 1.2 away.

    Finally feel like I am back on track. Smoked several chicken breasts yesterday so that should help me stick to my plan for the rest of the week. Now starting to plan to host thanksgiving - planning lots of veggie dishes so maybe it won't be too bad....(I hope).

    Loss/gain for the week: 3.3
    Loss/gain for the month: 7.9

    Of course I log my weight and I have to get back on the scale after my shower and it goes down to 299.9.. but I already logged it so it doesn't count.. but I have it towards next week. YAY! It will give me momentum. I'll be logging on 11/24 next week because I work crazy hours all weekend at my part time job and I'm afraid I'll forget to log. So my goal for Thanksgiving morning is to be 298.

    A good week for me, but the weekend, yikes! Weekends can be so brutal! Yesterday I ate double what I should :-( And then there is Thanksgiving this week...I just will have to work extra hard next week, and try not to do to much more damage this week.

    Seeing lots of great activity on this thread this month---very inspiring!

    Will be close on hitting my goal this month. Going to get in a good hour work out early on Thanksgiving and try my hardest to log food and try not to over do it. On a more positive note, I hit my 50lb lost mark this mark this morning!! Working on that next 50. I have lost 25% of the weight I want to lose. Just need to do it 3 more times!

    11/26/16: 302.9 However This I believe was at least partially due to illness. (Lost even more the next day.) We will see how much comes back after I am hydrated again.)

    Loss/gain for the week: Unsure
    Loss/gain for the month: Unsure

    Did better at logging, but over the weekend had a flare and lost a lot of fluids, hopefully better now. Bring on December.

    I didnt do my last weigh in date. I was travelling on that day and when i got home i promised myself i would do it and then i ended up with a very nasty stomach bug. Since i dont believe i can have an accurate number after expelling everything in my body for two days straight i am opting to pick it up in december with a new start friday.
