    •Lose 5 lbs in December•

    Nov. 30- 178.2 - A .6 lb gain for November.

    Original starting wgt: 253
    December starting weight: 178.8
    December goal: 175

    •Monday Updates•📌
    12/1 - 178.8 - carbs
    12/2 - 177.6 - carbs
    📌12/3 - 180.6 - CARBS!
    12/4 - 178.8 - fluid starting to come off
    12/5 - 176.8
    12/6 - 176.2
    12/7 - 176.4 - up slightly
    •Update on my carby snack weight swings😆

    12/8 - 176.4 - sort of an OMAD day on the 7th. Dealing with sore throat. Pretzels and homemade onion dip.

    12/9 - 177.4 - Ate the heck out of some pretzels.

    📌12/10 - 178.8 - Temporary. My pretzel frenzy really wasn't. I only had 2ozs of them, but I do Keto, so there's fluid to reckon with.

    12/11 - 176.6 - Lucky ducky today, because I ate 700 calories worth of gourmet potato chips yesterday. No regrets. They were delicious and I'll take the hit tomorrow if it comes.

    December 1 - 193 - up one pound from yesterday : - (
    December 2 -193 - glad that I didn't gain, I was pretty over-indulgent over the weekend.
    December 3 -194 - kind of discouraged with the fluctuation. I had a good day, expected a loss.
    December 4 -194 - I really expected to be less this morning. On track to lose.
    December 5 -192 - back to where I was at the end of last month's challenge.
    December 6 -191 - Wow! Lots of days left to get down to that next decade. Seeing the scale move is motivating!
    December 7 -191 - Getting excited to get out of the 90s, hopefully by next week
    December 8 -192 - Dang. Oh well, I will stick with it. I over-ate yesterday and expected this. Very easy to put on, hard to take off.
    December 9 - 192
    December 10 -191- Good. Monday morning. Easier for me to be diligent during the week, so hope to see another drop this week. 2 steps forward 1 step back still equals going forward : - )
    December 11 -193 - Geez do I fluctuate!
    December 12 -192 - Lots of days left in December, but I am only at my November ending weight and have been very disciplined. Oh well, I want this, so must keep going.

    Hey, but you are still down a pound from the beginning of the month. You sure fired up something in your body from eating those potato chips after being Keto! Maybe your body worked so hard to digest them after being used to Keto that it burned a bunch of calories : - )

    @dawnbgethealthy,
    "Hey, but you are still down a pound from the beginning of the month. You sure fired up something in your body from eating those potato chips after being Keto! Maybe your body worked so hard to digest them after being used to Keto that it burned a bunch of calories : - )"

    It showed up, lol. Not certain how much it is that and how much it is my intermittent fasting schedule being off. Both need corrections.

    Kind of amazing if you know I had an epic Holiday party on the 7th and the scale was up over six lbs on Monday. Bloated! Lots of exercise and logging and I’m moving on down. December’s realistic goal feels pretty doable.

    December 13 - Skated again, I think that I have messed up my calendar here, because the 191 should have been the 13th.
    December 14 -193. Unbelievable, 2 days of skating and up 2 pounds? Really expected a loss today. I don't measure my inches until the 27th. Glad that I am not weighing once per week, seeing as how this fluctuation is going. I actually like seeing it, I didn't realize that it could be like that. 2 pounds is a lot!
