    Total Loss for December - 6lb down so far!

    I plateaued for this past week, which was a little disappointing. However, with richer holiday food in abundance, I wasn't exactly shocked. Although I likely won't meet my new December goal, at least I maintained. We'll see I guess :) Besides, there's always next month! Progress is progress, no matter how long it takes.

    July 2017 starting weight - 204.8
    Current weight - 179.6
    December goal - 175
    Ultimate goal - 150ish
    (I weigh on Saturdays)

    December 2- 180.2
    December 9 – 179.0
    December 14 – 177.2 (I had to post this because I was excited.)
    December 16 – 178.2 (A bit of a gain, but if I stay under 180 through December, I’m counting that as a win!)
    December 26 - 174 I've been sick! Started Saturday (12/23) with fever, headache, body aches...yep, I have the flu. (I got the flu shot in November), then it progressed and I was diagnosed with pneumonia yesterday. So I didn't get to have Christmas with my family and it's been a pretty *kitten* holiday. Yes, I'm feeling sorry for myself. :( On the plus side, I've lost weight, ha!

    So far, made it through Christmas Eve and Christmas Day with no adverse effects. Will begin maintenance next month. That, in itself, will be a challenge to coordinate nutrition and exercise to result in neither a gain nor loss. My best wishes to each of you as you continue perseverence to reach for your ultimate goal. Kind regards.

    December Goal: 115
    Ultimate Goal: 115

    1st - 119
    8th - 118

    22nd - 115

    Not entirely unexpected (most of it is trifle) BUT! I'm still here, I'm still logging my food AND most of it has already been eaten because I didn't buy loads and loads. So by 2nd Jan it will all be gone and I can start a fresh.

    Hopefully there won't be a massive gain in the next 2 days :D
