My name is Jenn I have 5 kids (1st one just left for college this year and another one that will be leaving next year). I am 39 and married to an amazing man. I work full time and have very little time to work out. Hopefully once the younger kids 10 and 13 get a little older, I will have more time. Right now I focus on eating right and maybe two to three times a week getting 45 minutes or so of cardio.
Beginning Weight ~ 175-178
Challenge Starting Weight ~ 155.3
Challenge Goal Weight ~ 135
My weigh in days will be Friday (these are usually my lowest weights, lol)
November 20, 2018 ~ 155.3
11/23 ~ 157.8 day after Thanksgiving uugggh
11/30 ~ 153.8 that looks better
December 7 ~ 152.3 I thought this week I would have been lower. Did really well. Not a drop of alcohol, clean eating, lots of water, and everything. I just don't think my body can lose 2 pounds a week no matter what. I am getting closer to my goal weight, so maybe that's why to. I am proud that I stuck to my plan this week and am down 1.5 pounds, so I'll take it!
12/14 ~ 151.1 Going in the right direction for sure. Hopefully we can keep this pattern going!
12/21 152.8 And I am back up again,lol. I'm holding on for dear life for December. I am still down 1 pound this month and that maybe all I get.
12/28 ~152.3 Going back down. Had a lot to lose after Christmas though. One more holiday weekend and we are back on track. Happy New Year everyone!
January 4, 2019 ~ 153.3 Holidays are over and my time off from work is done. So at least I maintained within a couple of pounds, but it is now time to get in the 140's. I have 5 weeks till vacation and that same weekend my second oldest turns 18. So my goal is 145!
1/11 ~ 150.9 Been here for 3 days. Was hoping it would finally drop lower for today's weigh-in, but maybe next week I can post a better one.
1/18 ~ 148.9 and I am officially in the 140's. Almost 4 pounds away from my first goal of 145. I have just over 3 weeks to get there before vacation. It is completely doable, but I usually lose a pound or less a week, so we will see. Happy where I am today and that is a win in my books.

@jenn990205, Congrats on entering a new decade Jenn!
@Tracie_Lord, Nice loss!
@deepwoodslady, {{{Hugs}}} Donna.2 -
I have dry brushed a few times, but not as much as I wanted due to time constraints. However, I have done some lymphatic massage when I steal a few moments.0

I don't know where I'm getting this Internet access from. It only lasts briefly. Mine has been out for 2 days. When it comes back, I'll post a new challenge. I hope you all have been doing well!0

@tiabirdie56, sounds like a plan, thanks! I need to catch up here, my husbands work schedule has going crazy unfortunately. This last 4 weeks we’ve talked more on the phone, than actually in person.
My internet has been not the best either, hopefully that will change, 😀0 -

11/27 – 180.4 And a Happy Thanksgiving it was. But not such a healthy one. I celebrated all week and held or attended more than one dinner. Now, it’s back to the business of a newer and better version of me!
December 4 178.6 Exactly back to where I started which is a good thing. Now, to get this ball rolling!
12/11 180.4 Disappointed in my weight. Weighed very early due to long trip to University Hospital I am going to today. I will be gone 2 days. More restaurants and long car drives. I’m going to do my very best.
12/18 180.4 No change which I suppose is good during this month of festivities, out of town trips and food temptations. Lets remember to enjoy and appreciate the season, not just work, work, work. I am going to try to keep eating clean (at least while I am at home), get in my cardio and keep my Hallmark channel going 24/7.
12/25 183.2
January 1, 2019 185.5 Ground Zero.
01/08 183.3 Going back down about the same way I went up during December. Redemption. Thank you Lord.
01/15 186.2 Lots of personal problems and business problems this week has derailed me. Trying hard to get on track. Food plan is hard to stick to during all this, but I have been trying to keep up the Cardio and the walking and limit my snacking. Carbs & calories over the top too many times this week.
01/22 187.1 Was trying to do better but stress eating got me. Emergencies (tree on roof), loss of business, insurance inspections throughout ugg. Incorporated aerobic dancing into my routine and it helped, but a quick gain on the end was inevitable. Next week should be better.

I’m in the groove right now & hope I can stay there. I’m always strong until I’m hungry, so I’ve got to stay prepared! I’m still way higher than my starting weight during this challenge (6.2 lbs up still). I’ve got a long way to go just to break even, but I’m trying!

My name is Jenn I have 5 kids (1st one just left for college this year and another one that will be leaving next year). I am 39 and married to an amazing man. I work full time and have very little time to work out. Hopefully once the younger kids 10 and 13 get a little older, I will have more time. Right now I focus on eating right and maybe two to three times a week getting 45 minutes or so of cardio.
Beginning Weight ~ 175-178
Challenge Starting Weight ~ 155.3
Challenge Goal Weight ~ 135
My weigh in days will be Friday (these are usually my lowest weights, lol)
November 20, 2018 ~ 155.3
11/23 ~ 157.8 day after Thanksgiving uugggh
11/30 ~ 153.8 that looks better
December 7 ~ 152.3 I thought this week I would have been lower. Did really well. Not a drop of alcohol, clean eating, lots of water, and everything. I just don't think my body can lose 2 pounds a week no matter what. I am getting closer to my goal weight, so maybe that's why to. I am proud that I stuck to my plan this week and am down 1.5 pounds, so I'll take it!
12/14 ~ 151.1 Going in the right direction for sure. Hopefully we can keep this pattern going!
12/21 152.8 And I am back up again,lol. I'm holding on for dear life for December. I am still down 1 pound this month and that maybe all I get.
12/28 ~152.3 Going back down. Had a lot to lose after Christmas though. One more holiday weekend and we are back on track. Happy New Year everyone!
January 4, 2019 ~ 153.3 Holidays are over and my time off from work is done. So at least I maintained within a couple of pounds, but it is now time to get in the 140's. I have 5 weeks till vacation and that same weekend my second oldest turns 18. So my goal is 145!
1/11 ~ 150.9 Been here for 3 days. Was hoping it would finally drop lower for today's weigh-in, but maybe next week I can post a better one.
1/18 ~ 148.9 and I am officially in the 140's. Almost 4 pounds away from my first goal of 145. I have just over 3 weeks to get there before vacation. It is completely doable, but I usually lose a pound or less a week, so we will see. Happy where I am today and that is a win in my books.
1/25 ~ 149.4 started our Vaca last night. Had a couple of drinks and started packing. We will see how The Weeknd goes. It’s a short Vaca so shouldn’t do to much damage.
February 1 ~ 147.6 Super stoked about this. Even with my vacation last week. 1 more week before Vegas, don't think I am going to see 145, but I will hopefully be close!
2/8
2/15 Vacation - So want to be well established in the 140's decade and be below 145!

I seem to be having trouble staying focused lately. Maybe it's just the cold weather. Eating too many carbs!0

Woooooohie - Got a partial lay off right after DH got a total layoff two weeks ago. Went into survival mode - but fortunately I didnt totally digress and have held on to some of my habits and havent used emotional eating as a crutch. Still going thru lots of changes and growing pains. But just wanted to check in here to say I will weigh in tomorrow for accountability. I was 176 on Tuesday so that was a huge win for me to still be in the mid 170's after two weeks of not weighing at all and slacking on logging. Not something I want to stick to - but it gave me a little boost to know that some of these changes I have made really do seem like enough of a lifestyle that I have maintained within 2 lbs for 2 weeks without close monitoring! Silver lining I suppose.2

@tiabirdie56
Mentally focused?
How are you sleeping?
Drinking enough water - just read an article that many of the effects of less sleep may actually come from being dehydrated.
I know I’m giving myself extra self-care & relaxation this week. We’ve been at this awhile.
Gives you a big hug.

@MadisonMolly2017, My sleep has been good, except for last night. A few interruptions to my daily routine this past week. Kept my granddaughter a couple of days when she was out of school sick. A bit of melancholy thinking of some family members that are deceased, two had birthdays in January. I haven't been out of the house much in the past 2 weeks, feeling antsy. Haven't been posting much on the challenges. I had composed one in response to you asking me if I'd continue IF and Keto going forward. Yes and no and yes. LOL. I'll find it and post it. I also need to complete the last challenge and post it this weekend, which happens to be self care. I'll get it to together. Thanks for asking. ❤ {{{Hugs}}}
Also, I've been so distracted that I had updated my weight post, FINALLY!, for this challenge and forgot to post it this morning. SMH. A lot of things on my mind.1 -

You are welcome. You are an amazing person, and those anniversaries can be tough. If you don’t get to the posting, do not stress. Sometimes we have to rest, relax, regroup & then we come back stronger than ever.
I’ll be thinking of you & sending healing thoughts.0 -

My name is Tish
Challenge Starting Weight ~ 177.2
Challenge Goal Weight ~167 - 1/2 pound per weekNovember 20, 2018 ~ 177.2 - 42 lbs left to reach my ultimate goal. It was 40 lbs on Nov. 9th when 175 appeared, then was rudely replaced by 177. Lol. This number loves me.
11/27 ~ 178.8 - Been doing everything I should not the last 5 days; eating late in the day (8pm) eating bread, no electrolytes. One last croissant beckoning me today😊 and hopefully
it's over.
11/30 - 178.2 - Lol. Looks like I lost weight. Not. I prefer Wednesday's weight, 174.8😅 but obviously not that much since I ate pretzels last night. Keto carb havoc!
December 4 - 😒 178.8 - That's rough , but better than yesterday. I think I should post daily weights for December.
12/11 - 176.6 - Forgot it was weigh in day. By no means was this a linear loss. I was December 4 weight again yesterday!
12/14 - 175.4 - Gotta post my own good report. I almost don't believe it. I was this weight once or twice during my traverse up and down the 170's since September! Praying it continues downward. I'm more than ready to be OUT of this decade! Doing EVERY THING RIGHT.
12/18 - 176.2 - My mac and cheese😁
12/25 - 174.8 - Eating carbs, up and down a smaller range of weights this past week.
12/31 - 175.8
January 1, 2019 - 178 😦
1/3 - 175.8 - Knee is behaving somewhat better and I exercised for the first time in a week yesterday. Found a few different rehab exercises online for knee and shoulders. I will include them in my strength and stretch workouts.
1/4 - 177.6 - Weight is up from late day start for everything, exercise, eating, bedtime. Not feeling my best yesterday or today for that matter. Got a nice workout in yesterday, not up to my standards, lol, but my standards are going to have to be altered until I can gain my muscle strength back.
1/8 - 174.4
1/15 - 173.2
1/22 - 174.2
1/29 - 176
2/1 - 172.8
2/3 - 174.8
2/4 176.4
*I'm going to do my best to get below 170 by the end of this challenge. The cold weather is making me want to eat more though.😣 At 169lbs, I'll be 34 lbs from my ultimate goal. At 158lbs, I will be at the threshold of a normal BMI.

*****CHALLENGES*****
**Each challenge will be for 7 days**
**Each challenge will help us establish and reinforce good healthy habits**
**Take your measurements on day 1 of the first challenge. No need to post them. They are for body measurement comparisons throughout and at the end of the challenge. January 17, 2019 and March 20, 2019 - We should notice some significant changes.
Challenge #8 ~ A Month of Self Care❤❤❤❤February 5 through March 5
Be kind and take time for yourself. Why don't some of us know how to do this on a regular basis?
Some suggestions:
All the good stuff we want to have time for AFTER taking care of everyone else. Hair, manicures, pedicures, new make up, body scrubs, facials, lunch with a friend, read a book for pleasure, visit a museum, scenic stroll, go to the movies or watch one at home, relax and enjoy. Etcetera, etcetera, etcetera. Just be.
