    ……………………………..TOTAL LOST IN OCT: + 3.2 GAIN


    NOV. 01: 177.6
    NOV. 05: 177.2 Lots of travel this week. Oh no!
    NOV. 12: 177.6 Better than expected. I actually went up drastically earlier in the week after 5 days of travel (I hit over 180), so I am relieved it is working it’s way back down. Have a great week everyone!
    NOV. 19: 178.6 I am not proud but it is due to yet more traveling. From here to the New Year I will be doing lots of it. I enjoy it, but hate the affects of restaurant dining.
    NOV. 26: [limegreen]180.4[/color=limegreen] Thankgiving dinner feast was yesterday for our family. Then, weigh today. Ugg. I actually ate way less than the old days, but still ended up quite bloated. Caved for the pecan pie which is never good. Next week will be a huge improvement.
    NOV. 30: 178.1 A small loss since the 26th, but a bad month overall. Ugg.

    NOVEMBER GOAL : 159.9
    NOVEMBER ACTUAL: 178.1
    ………………………………TOTAL GAIN IN NOV: 0.9 lbs

    DEC. 01: 178.0 Late December will be very difficult with all the social gatherings, baking and receiving baked goods, the Feasts and the restaurants while doing the out-of-town shopping. However, today is only December 1st and I am going to do my best to make these first couple of weeks count and help neutralize my overall stats for the month. A joyous time of year, but lets all enjoy it in good health.
    DEC. 03: 178.4 A small bounce due to my Grandson’s first birthday party. I managed to be more mindful of my portions but enjoyed my day. More carbs and calories that are normal to my plan, and very little water but overall a success in my attitude about the food.
    DEC. 10: 180.4 From bad to worse. The Christmas bug has gotten a hold of me. All the festivities and travels far & wide for shopping. All the restaurants. I’ve got to keep my chin up out of the water or I just may drown. Goal: get through December alive and without much damage, January is just ahead.
    DEC. 17: 180.4 No progress whatsoever except on the shopping scene. Well, I suppose if I can just hold steady, January will not be such a personal challenge! No way I am coming anywhere near my goal, however, I remain honest with myself and accountable. I continue to log and make good choices whenever I can be at home and more in control of the food choices.
    DEC. 24: 183.3 Oh my. And another party tonight! Merry Christmas everyone!


    DEC. 31: 185.1 I have disappointed myself and will be making many changes in 2019.

    DECEMBER GOAL : 156.9
    DECEMBER ACTUAL: 185.1
    ……………………………..TOTAL LOST IN DEC: GAIN 7.0 lbs.


    WEIGHT LOST SO FAR: + 10.4 lb GAIN

    I really liked this challenge, thank you to whoever created it! This was a great way to stay on track and see my progress over time in a methodical way. I didn't reach my goal of losing one pound per week over the 18 weeks, but I was pretty close! I think I did well considering the holidays and colder weather of these last few months. I would just also like to say that calorie counting has been so life changing for me, I am finally seeing results like never before, and this has been so motivating to me. I only have about 11.6 pounds to lose until I reach my goal weight of 135, and I'm so confident I will get there with time and continued persistence and dedication to calorie counting and exercise. I'm so excited to see what the new year will bring for me, I know I will be accomplishing my weight loss goal, and I know I'll have so much more confidence to know that I can accomplish any other goal I set out to do with some commitment! I'll be looking for a new challenge to join so I can get on to losing these last few pounds.
