12/19 168.2. Disappointed to be starting at this weight for another round, but had measurements taken and have lost 5% body fat since August eventhough the scale hasn't moved. Counting a small win and keeping it moving!
12/20 168.8 ugh. Had a pretty good day yesterday. So I don't know why.
12/21 168. Big workout yesterday and stayed within calories. My body likes the 168s

12/19 - 188.6 - It's going to be a cold week and hard to move for me. But I'm gonna do my best.
12/20 - 188.2 - Had some elliptical time and a nice walk yesterday.
12/21 - 188.6 - Lots of salt yesterday. More elliptical time. My scale is acting a little weird gave me a reading way too high - higher than I weighed myself yesterday at the gym with all my clothes and shoes on - then way too low. Then back to this.

R25 EW 160.0 LW 158.0Round 25 (previous round)
12/09: 158.5 Little shocked by w-i, no wonder I still felt hungry last night. Net calories red (w/i 100) & 12c water. Walked dog 3.14 miles before work and helped decorate dept. for Christmas. Fitbit 15,471 steps, 250+ steps 14/14 (boom!) hours & 41 floors.
12/10: 161.0 Annnd it's bounce-back time. To be honest, I snacked with hubby after getting home late last night from classic holiday movie (A White Christmas) at theatre...he's used to eating after his shift ends at midnight, and I ate right along with him. Net calories red, sodium very red and 12c water. Walked dog 3.07 miles. Fitbit 16,142 steps, 250+ steps 11/14 hours & 17 floors.
12/11: 160.0 Net calories green, sodium red & 14c water. Walked dog 3.56 miles. Fitbit 17,803 steps, 250+ steps 12/14 hours & 38 floors.

12/18: 160.0 Still fighting off a cold, going to listen to my body, skip workouts & get more sleep. More important to fight off cold than get workouts in, especially being so busy with Christmas preparations. Keep pushing zinc tablets, extra vitamin C & water. Workouts will resume once (a) I feel better and (b) crazy busy-ness ends. Net calories barely green but sodium very red & light on fiber (again) / 12c water.

Joining in a few days late for my first "JGM10D" series
Starting weight: 208
Current weight: 204.5
Goal weight: 170
Goal for this round is to see the scale go below 200.
Day/Weight/Comment
12/19 - Worked a festival and was so tired / hungry by the end that I went to Trader Joe's and bought way too many of their holiday goodies. My goal for this 10 days is to mete them out and enjoy them mindfully.
12/20 - So tired that I'm wondering if there's something wrong...
12/21 - 200.2 "Own the morning, own the day." Up and out to the gym. Lifted and swam. Was so inspired by another woman in the pool doing her own exercise / aerobics routine.

Hello! This will be my first round ever, and I’m so excited to join in!
OSW (4/25/17): 320
R26SW: 265.4
I’m leaving in the morning for a 2- or 3-day road trip to my home town for the holidays. The next 10 days will be a triple challenge for me, as my weaknesses are travel, holidays, and family. I’m going to rock this!
12/19 - 264.5
Yay! Starting strong! I haven’t left for my road trip yet though. Best laid plans, right?? Haha! Oh well, more time to prepare healthy food for the road!
12/20 - 264.5
No problem here! I drove for 5 hours yesterday and while I didn’t completely follow my food plans for the day, I did take frequent breaks to stretch and walk around. I was also really diligent about hydrating and not mindlessly snacking. Now to keep it up for the longer haul today!
12/21 - 263.0
Happy surprise loss! Yesterday’s drive was about 12 hours. I had a hard time staying within my calories, but I allowed myself to go over a bit because I felt legitimately hungry and decided to listen to my body. I also prioritized water and tons of breaks for walking around. I have 5-6 more hours of driving today, depending on mountain road conditions. Can’t wait to get there tonight and see my family!

12/19 - 247.0 - I'm so tired of struggling. I cannot wait for the holiday season to be over for no other reason than I will not be so busy and can focus on my food and exercise again. Work Christmas party today (so restaurant food for lunch) but I have my run tonight. Hopefully that will help counteract the food.
12/20 - 246.6 - Food, again, not good. And I had a terrible headache last night and was feeling down, but I made myself do my C25K W3D2 run. My body didn't want any part of it, but I powered through. My legs were burning from my knees down and I felt like I couldn't get enough water into my body. But, when I was finished, I kept walking for 35 minutes to 1-stretch out my legs and 2-it just felt good. If I can at least use SOME self control on my food, I feel like I'll make some actual progress again.
12/21 - 246.4 - Working on it.

12/19 147 Finally feeling somewhat better. Too many things to do to get ready to leave on Christmas trip tomorrow.
12/20 146.5 Now my husband is sick. I knew he wasn’t feeling well when I came home and packing hadn’t begun!
12/21 147 but it was the middle of the night. Couldn’t find a comfortable place to sleep. We were supposed to be on the road to OK but are still both sick. UGH3 -
Love this challenge! You guys help me keep up the motivation to make the right choices each day (and goodness knows this is the 10 days I'm gonna need it the most).

Day/Weight/Comment
12/19 - 220.2 - NSV - after what feels like weeks of eating sandwiches and previously made meal preps from earlier this month, I finally had time to make dinner after work. Usually it's draining but it's nice to not have to microwave dinner.
12/20 - 219.6 - NSV - steps in, only gave into the cookie cravings a few time.
12/21 - 218.8 - let the wooing begin!! Whatever, I haven't seen the 218 on the scale for over 10 years so I'm pretty damn proud at the moment, and you can't bring me down today. Don't worry, it'll go up at Christmas cause I'm going to eat all the turkey and I'll also be petty happy with myself then too.
