    You only have one hour to edit your post. You will see a little gear wheel at the top right corner.

    Total Loss For November ---

    Notes: I want to blame the cold I caught for my bout of laziness, but in all honesty it was me. I didn't eat well this week, and skipped out on going to the gym, but that's okay! I'm going to start this week off strong and hopefully finish strong. I'm hoping that by thanksgiving day I am under 150 again!

    Notes: coming from the October challenge, I have to say the past month has been really rough for me. I've found it hard to stick to a healthy lifestyle, but I'm hoping to do better this month and see some progress!

    Happy Sunday, everyone! Happy belated Veterans Day, and Rememberance Day, and to all veterans among us, thank you for your service!

    I am still stuck. I have been gaining and losing the same pound or 2 since the end of September. I'm not doing anything differently than I have been doing for the last 10 1/2 months, that has enabled me to lose 22 or so pounds. I guess I need to change something to get things moving again.

    I have pretty much accepted that I won't see ONEderland in 2017.

    I have been stuck before but not for this long. Seems like forever.

    No time for a pity party, I am still way better off than this time last year, so I need to be mindful of that, and press on.

    Highest weight ever: 254 in October 1999.

    Lowest since 1999: 195.

    Original starting weight: 243 in 2015.

    MFP Starting weight December 25th, 2016: 233

    Goal: 180 in however long it takes, and I'll evaluate at that time. Haven't been there since my early 20s.

    Average from October 30-November 4th: 210.1
    Average from November 5th - November 12th: 209.7

    Loss for November: 0.4 lbs.

    MFP Loss: 23.3 lbs.

    Total cumulative loss: 33.3 bs.

    Until next week...

    Move more, eat less.

    You may get close to 199 by the end of the year...Don't give up, Jenn! Have you tried intermittent Fasting? It helps me a lot! Not eating after a certain time of the day (or night).

    I have been doing the same. Not sure if it's the weather change or just loss of motivation or what but it is discouraging.

    Total Loss for November: - 8.1! This past week I reduced my sodium intake and lost 8 pounds in a week. I am almost at my November goal but the next few weeks will be a test because my husband and I will be out of state from Wednesday-Sunday and then next week is Thanksgiving. We’ll see how the rest of the month goes.

    I am going in the wrong direction!! Not sure what my deal is. My commitment has gone down and I'm disappointed in myself for letting it get this way. Sigh...

    I'm in! I tried the daily weigh-in, but I was too frustrated with no loss or gains. So I think the weekly is better for me. I'll weigh in on Saturdays.

    Starting weight - 204.8
    Current weight - 178.8
    November Goal - 175
    Ultimate goal - 150ish

    4th – 180.2
    11th – 181.2 (I haven’t been counting calories for several days, but I’m back on track since yesterday)

    You may get close to 199 by the end of the year...Don't give up, Jenn! Have you tried intermittent Fasting? It helps me a lot! Not eating after a certain time of the day (or night).

    I really appreciate your encouragement, Tramaine, thanks!

    I don't do too well with fasting, I am more likely to over eat afterwards. For years I ate one meal a day, and look how that worked out for me :)

    Most days I eat 3 meals, I don't usually snack between meals. Breakfast is usually light, yogurt or whole grain toast. Weekends might be more, but if we have a bigger breakfast we have an early supper and skip lunch, or I have a Boost shake to tide me over.

    If I go too long I get the low blood sugar shakes.

    I'm sticking to my calorie goals most days and if I go over budget it isn't my much. Last Friday we went to a Grand Opening of a restaurant my friends opened, I have been waiting 9 years for them to get back in the business, so I went over that day. That is exception, not rule.

    We are getting into the colder weather so I won't be as busy outside, I need to keep moving. Last winter I walked laps around the warehouse at work before my shift, but these days management don't seem to arrive early to let us in before the workday starts.

    I am not giving up. I just wish I was a little closer to goal than I am. My plan was to lose 1 pound per week. I'm about 46 weeks in, only 23 lbs down. Going at half speed. Better than going in reverse!

    I record the prediction of MFP on my calendar. When I complete my daily diary and it says if every day was like today, you would weigh...

    It is interesting to compare predicted weight with actual weight. MFP is fairly close if I am consistent, but plateaus aren't predicted, nor are they predictable.

    The scale yielded a bit today, I will take it!

    Jenn
