    Nov 19 (last update) - 177 😊 Not where I thought I'd be at the end of 12 weeks, but I lost 6.4 lbs, which is great! I had not taken my measurements for 2 months and I did lose another few inches all over. Even my older smaller clothes are too big.😆 Now I need a new 12 week challenge to carry me into the new year!

    Final GOAL weight (on Feb 14th, 2019: 145.0
    Highest weight ever (2014/2015): 253

    Challenge GOAL weight (in 12 weeks) : 161.0
    Final Weight at end of Challenge: 174.6


    Aug. 26: 179.0


    Sept 05: 180.8 Oh my! Chinese sodium.
    Sept 12: 176.4 That’s more like it!
    Sept 19: 178.6 Back & Forth like a See-Saw. Travel damage.
    Sept 26: 174.8 -3.8 lbs. The comeback kid! Whew!!! I blew my 6 lb goal this month, but ended closer than I thought I would!

    ********Total Lost in Sept:……….-4.2 lbs LOST

    Oct 03:……. 174.0 Hoping for a great month! Let’s Rock October!

    Oct 10:……. 175.2 Don’t forget to schedule your mammogram!

    Oct 17:……. 175.4 Some travel this week. I hope to have an okay scale victory for next week regardless.

    Oct 24:……. 179.2 Too much travel this week. More to come. Going to Univ hospital about 4 hours from home for my cancer re-check and mammograms. Hoping for the best! I will have my work cut out for me when I get home Thurs night.

    Oct 31:……. 177.2 Mammogram turned out great. I am still in remission. I can’t believe I pulled off a loss this week with all the traveling I have done! I am still down from the beginning of the month so that is disappointing.
    I will do much better in the week to come.

    *********Total Lost in Oct: +3.2 GAIN

    Nov 07: 178.6 Too much travel this past week and more to come including today. I’m just not strong when I am away from home. I continue to work on my mindset and my strength when given off-plan choices. I’ll never give up!
    Nov 14: 177.2 I could have done much better, but I’ll take it.
    Nov 21: 174.6 Whoosh! Thanks to a 24 hour egg fast and parsley water.


    *********Total Lost in Nov until challenge end: -4.0 lbs LOST




    Challenge Weight Loss so Far: – 4.4 lb Loss

    GOAL Weight Loss for this Challenge: 18 Lbs
    Total ACTUAL Weight Loss for this Challenge: 4.4 lbs Lost

    Final Challenge Thoughts: While I didn’t come near my goal, I did lose a little in the right direction. Every little bit helps. I thought summer would be the most challenging, but September and October have been the worst since I started my journey. I’m just glad I didn’t get a gain and keep it.! I look forward to the next challenge that @tiabirdie56 started yesterday.

    Av. loss: 0.5kg (1lb) a week over 13 weeks/3mths.

    Last month more about maintenance than loss, getting my body comfortable with low 60s (not high 60s) to help avoid rebounding when the silly season comes
