08 Dec: 210.0
09 Dec: 210.0
10 Dec: 209.0 (I was weirdly full yesterday, and WAY under my calorie limit)
11 Dec: 208.2 (same thing today. Not sure what's going on. I've felt bloated and not particularly hungry)
12 Dec: 208.6
13 Dec: 207.6 (same as 10th/11th. The odd thing here is that, normally, if I adhere to my diet, I'll wake up actually "feeling" thinner, particularly in my torso. This week, I haven't...I've felt extra bloated. The numbers are doing what I want them to, but I haven't been feeling quite right. Hoping this isn't a period of muscle loss).

15 Dec: 206.8
16 Dec: 207.2 (this could've been worse. I got sent my favorite pizza for christmas, and I ate the whole thing. Fortunately, I didn't have much else yesterday)

I've lost a little more than 20 pounds since late July, but I've been slipping up lately and not hitting my calorie target as consistently as I was earlier in the process. My goal for December is to finish the year strong and get back into the "normal" BMI range (<157 lbs).
Starting weight: 184.6
Start weight this month: 163.7
Goal weight this month: 156.9 (revised goal as of 12/17: 159.6)
Target goal weight: TBD
01 Dec: 163.7 - stayed on track with my diet; no exercise
02 Dec: 164.1 - stayed on track with my diet; no exercise
03 Dec: 163.3 - stayed on track with my diet; no exercise
04 Dec: 162.6 - stayed on track with my diet; no exercise
05 Dec: 162.5 - stayed on track with my diet; no exercise
06 Dec: 162.1 - stayed on track with my diet (had to plan carefully around a restaurant meal); no exercise
07 Dec: 162.0 - ate at or slightly above maintenance level (darn late-night stress snacking); no exercise (hope to do better with exercise this coming week)
08 Dec: 161.7 - stayed on track with my diet; no exercise
09 Dec: 161.7 - stayed on track with my diet; no exercise
10 Dec: 162.1 - stayed on track with my diet; no exercise
11 Dec: 161.9 - stayed on track with my diet (ate a little less in anticipation of higher intake tomorrow at a holiday party); no exercise
12 Dec: 161.4 - ate around maintenance (had to estimate restaurant food - may see a spike on scale tomorrow); no exercise
13 Dec: 161.4 - happy not to see a spike on the scale after yesterday; ate above maintenance (holiday party #2); no exercise
14 Dec: 161.5 - happy not to see a spike after holiday party #2; ate way too much at holiday party #3 today; no exercise
15 Dec: 164.4 - I can tell I'm retaining water after yesterday's party food - hopefully my weight will normalize again quickly; stayed on track with my diet (ate a little less than normal because I wasn't as hungry after yesterday's feasting); no exercise
16 Dec: 162.5 - nice to see most of the scale spike disappear - I still feel like I'm retaining water, but it's also possible that I gained some actual fat - will see what the scale does over the next few days; stayed on track with my diet; 20-minute workout
17 Dec: 162.0 - diet and exercise TBD1 -

Back again. Starting the month out with a bit of inflated number due to way to much alcohol, food from Thanksgiving, eating out the last couple of days, and had a 5 day weekend with my family. Hopefully once I get back to work on Monday it will drop off fairly quickly. My lowest in November right before Thanksgiving was 137.7 and I am hoping to be back in the 130's by the end of the first week.
May gained: 1.1 pounds (149.3)
June lost: 3.4 pounds (145.9)
July lost: 2.2 pounds (143.7)
August lost: 0.1 pounds (143.6) maintained
September lost: 2.7 pounds (140.9)
October lost: 0.2 pounds (140.7) maintained
November lost: 3 pounds (137.7) day before Thanksgiving 11/28
01 Dec: 144.4 uuugghhh
02 Dec: 145.7 ok back on track!
03 Dec: 142.2 it's amazing what a little bit of water and a low carb day will do for your weight. Down 3.5 pounds, 4.5 to go to get back to where I was before my Thanksgiving holiday!
04 Dec: 140.8 only 3.1 left to get back down
05 Dec: 139.4 have been staying on track and back in the 130's. Only 1.7 pounds left to get rid of.
06 Dec: 140.2 Cowboys played last night. Beer and pizza and a big LOSS!
07 Dec: 137.7
08 Dec: 138.8
09 Dec: 138.8 Not to bad for a Monday.
10 Dec: 138.3 should have been a little lower, but completely ok with this
11 Dec: 138.3 I guess I am figuring out maintenance. Would like to be just a couple of pounds lower, but not unhappy right now
12 Dec: 136.8 may be a tad dehydrated, but I liked what I saw on the scale this morning.
13 Dec: 137.7 Christmas party tonight so going to try and keep it together
14 Dec: 138.8 another party for the fights tonight
15 Dec: 137.7 football and relaxing
16 Dec: NW forgot when I got up this am
17 Dec: 142.2 way to many parties and a 3 day weekend. Back to work

14 Dec: 61.1 (yay! This is back in my own usual home scale! So happy! Tantalisingly close to my December goal!)
15 Dec: 61.3 (oops! I had it coming I guess. Ate heavy meals and snacked on greasy high sodium foods to boot! I spent an hour on the treadmill hoping to burn it but I guess it wasn’t enough! I will be good today!)
16 Dec: 61.2 (picking the heaviest of the three different weights my machine chose to show me this morning! But I am sure this is going down, I was really good yesterday with eating and exercise.)
17 Dec: 60.9 (yay! Met my new December goal! Cardio and abs yesterday and calorie deficit)

Thank you for doing this again this month!
Starting weight 179.5
Start weight this month 140.2
Goal weight this month 135.0
Target goal weight 129.5
This month I have so many events centered around eating. If I can get to 135, I will be thrilled. I was 137.2 before the Thanksgiving weekend, I think the first 3 pounds will come off easy, but not sure if I will lose any more this month. It is definitely going to be a yo-yo on the scales with all the big food events.
01 Dec: 140.2 😬 gained 3 pounds over the weekend at my mother-in-laws for Thanksgiving. I am sure much of it was water weight, but I also enjoyed the meals and pies.
02 Dec: 139.0 😏 already starting to come down.
03 Dec: 137.8 😏 almost back to pre-Thankgiving weight
04 Dec: 137.2 😊Back to what I was before the weekend.
05 Dec: 136.4 😃That was a nice surprise.
06 Dec: 135.9 😁 YAY! But now I am at the airport flying to Las Vegas for a weekend of good friends, laughter and lots of good food! I am sure I will gain a few pounds over the next 2 days, but the plan is to lose them and a tiny bit more throughout next week, then next weekend of more festivities!
07 Dec:
08 Dec:
09 Dec:
10 Dec: 138.5 😬😡😫 Yep way up from a fun time in Las Vegas! The question is can I get back to 135.9 before Friday? Friday night is a huge Company dinner. And Saturday night we are hosting my daughter's Graduation party! She graduates with a Bachelor of Science! So proud! 👩🎓🎓🍾🥂
11 Dec: 137.1 😏🤪 Still have 1.2 pound to get back to preweekend weight. Can I make it by Friday? Fingers crossed!
12 Dec: 136 😊😁 Almost back to pre-Las Vegas weight! Fingers crossed I am there tomorrow!
13 Dec: 135.4 😁😁😁 Made it below my pre-Las Vegas weight, and only .4 pounds to my December goal. But tonight I have a Company dinner at Maestros Ocean Club, so fun, so yummy and so many calories 😋😋. Then tomorrow night my daughter's graduation party🥂🍾🎓👩🎓, so much fattening food and celebration! I will be fighting to recoop my weight again next week, but that will be the story of December.
14 Dec:
15 Dec:
16 Dec: 139.4 😫😯Wow! What a little (ok a lot) of alcohol🤪, and a lot of desserts will do to your weight. My daughter's party👩🎓🎓🍾🥂 was SO much work to get ready... I got in 30,000 steps that day, but it was SO nice and fun once it started! Here is to hoping I get down to 135 before Friday... I am wearing a REALLY tight dress💃 to another company dinner... I know spanks will help, but they are not miracle workers😊.
17 Dec: 137.4 😯😁 Going back down, again. While this is getting tiresome, the only other choice is to just not eat at my celebrations, which would really not go over well with the family, or in some instances, even possible. So, the yo-yo weight will continue through December. I still have high hopes I will meet my month goal of 135, then hit my target goal weight of 129.5 in January.
My bad days for the rest of December includes this Thursday, my companys luncheon (going to try to stay within my calorie budget this day)👩🏫🥗, this Friday, my husband's company dinner (this will be a high calorie day)💃🍷🍸, Christmas Eve🎄🎅, Christmas Day🎅🤶, December 28, high school friends yearly get together👭, and New Year Eve🥂🎉.

7 days since weighing. Down 1.2 pounds. Have committed this time around to lose 1lb per week, possibly less. It's hard to realize that the older I am, the harder it is to lose and dropping 5lbs in a week is just not realistic anymore. I'm trying to re-set that thought process and commit to logging every day and losing 1lb per week.
Looking at all the posters' numbers, and seeing your 'slow but sure' numbers coming down - had I committed to this 2 months ago, I would be down 8lbs by now!
09 Dec: 171.8 Treadmill 30 mins.
10 Dec: 172
Treadmill 30mins. Felt a tweek lower back in the last 2 mins, been uncomfortable all day.Will probably take a break tomorrow.
11 Dec: 171.8 No exercise; food on track
12 Dec: 171.8
13 Dec: 172.2
14 Dec: 172 Ugh. Need to try harder.
15 Dec: 170.4 Wait, whaaaaat? OK, so a full week of yo-yoing and suddenly it drops. I'll take it, but hope it sticks.
Down 1.4 since last week. Staying on track, logging every day. Woke up with a horrible sore throat, several students at school were sick last week, although I have a very strong immune system, it seems its got me this time around.

Started 9th Nov. Nov lost: 10.4lb
01 Dec: 14st 12.8 (+0.7lb) - Impact of Chinese takeaway on Friday and cinema popcorn yesterday...
02 Dec: 14st 11.7 (-1.1lb / -0.4lb) - mainly water loss, but I'm happy
03 Dec: 14st 11.5 (-0.2lb / -0.6lb)
04 Dec: 14st 9.9 (-1.6lb / -2.2lb) - Been on track this week, but surprise at this movement.
05 Dec: 14st 10.1 (+0.2lb / -2.0lb)
06 Dec: 14st 9.5 (-0.6lb / -2.6lb) - Still on track with food, but really need to do some exercise!
07 Dec: 14st 9.2 (-0.3lb / -2.9lb) - Food under goal and had active day yesterday 12.8k steps.
08 Dec: 14st 9.1 (-0.1lb / -3.0lb)
09 Dec: 14st 8.7 (-0.4lb / -3.4lb) still keeping to goal calories. Also trying in drink more water.
10 Dec: 14st 7.9 (-0.8lb / -4.2lb). Really happy. Have now lost just over a stone since starting my weight loss about a month ago! Have now also hit my goal for December - I will keep going though as I know there may be a bit of excessive eating later in the month that needs negating!
11 Dec: 14st 7.5 (-0.4lb / -4.6lb)
12 Dec: 14st 6.7 (-0.8lb / -5.4lb) TOTM started yesterday, and am feeling so hungry. My goal is set to 1.5lb a week in MFP, but think I need to raise my calories allowed to get through TOTM without a huge binge.
13 Dec: 14st 7.7 (+1.0lb / -4.4lb). Only ate just over 900 cal yesterday - had planned a special pudding to have once kids had gone to bed, but started having horrendous period cramps, so just crawled in bed and stayed there and never finished what I had planned to eat. Will have to figure out how to fit it into today's budget! Assuming the fluctuations are TOTM relates so trying not the get frustrated with an increase in the scales!
14 Dec: 14st 5.9 (-1.8lb / -6.2lb)
15 Dec: 14st 6.2 (+0.3lb / -5.9lb) Went to an all you can eat pan Asian restaurant yesterday. I was very reserved and didn't stuff myself - only real naughtiness was the bottle of prosecco... needless to say, went over my calorie goal (but I believe less than maintenance).
16 Dec: 14st 4.8 (-1.4lb / -7.3lb)
17 Dec: 14st 4.4 (-0.4lb / -7.7lb) Have had a couple of weird days where I have eaten very little until evening dinner (where I then eat majority of calorie allowance) which seems to be paying off on the scales.
18 Dec: 14st 3.4 (-1.0lb / -8.7lb) woohoo! (But not sure where that came from, last few days losses more than I was expecting, but not complaining as I am sure scales will go up soon as the Christmas festivities get started!3 -

I've lost a little more than 20 pounds since late July, but I've been slipping up lately and not hitting my calorie target as consistently as I was earlier in the process. My goal for December is to finish the year strong and get back into the "normal" BMI range (<157 lbs).
Starting weight: 184.6
Start weight this month: 163.7
Goal weight this month: 156.9 (revised goal as of 12/17: 159.6)
Target goal weight: TBD
01 Dec: 163.7 - stayed on track with my diet; no exercise
02 Dec: 164.1 - stayed on track with my diet; no exercise
03 Dec: 163.3 - stayed on track with my diet; no exercise
04 Dec: 162.6 - stayed on track with my diet; no exercise
05 Dec: 162.5 - stayed on track with my diet; no exercise
06 Dec: 162.1 - stayed on track with my diet (had to plan carefully around a restaurant meal); no exercise
07 Dec: 162.0 - ate at or slightly above maintenance level (darn late-night stress snacking); no exercise (hope to do better with exercise this coming week)
08 Dec: 161.7 - stayed on track with my diet; no exercise
09 Dec: 161.7 - stayed on track with my diet; no exercise
10 Dec: 162.1 - stayed on track with my diet; no exercise
11 Dec: 161.9 - stayed on track with my diet (ate a little less in anticipation of higher intake tomorrow at a holiday party); no exercise
12 Dec: 161.4 - ate around maintenance (had to estimate restaurant food - may see a spike on scale tomorrow); no exercise
13 Dec: 161.4 - happy not to see a spike on the scale after yesterday; ate above maintenance (holiday party #2); no exercise
14 Dec: 161.5 - happy not to see a spike after holiday party #2; ate way too much at holiday party #3 today; no exercise
15 Dec: 164.4 - I can tell I'm retaining water after yesterday's party food - hopefully my weight will normalize again quickly; stayed on track with my diet (ate a little less than normal because I wasn't as hungry after yesterday's feasting); no exercise
16 Dec: 162.5 - nice to see most of the scale spike disappear - I still feel like I'm retaining water, but it's also possible that I gained some actual fat - will see what the scale does over the next few days; stayed on track with my diet; 20-minute workout
17 Dec: 162.0 - stayed on track with my diet; 20-minute workout
18 Dec: 160.9 - not sure this low number will last, but nice to see this morning; diet and exercise TBD2 -
Thank you for doing this again this month!
Starting weight 179.5
Start weight this month 140.2
Goal weight this month 135.0
Target goal weight 129.5
This month I have so many events centered around eating. If I can get to 135, I will be thrilled. I was 137.2 before the Thanksgiving weekend, I think the first 3 pounds will come off easy, but not sure if I will lose any more this month. It is definitely going to be a yo-yo on the scales with all the big food events.
01 Dec: 140.2 😬 gained 3 pounds over the weekend at my mother-in-laws for Thanksgiving. I am sure much of it was water weight, but I also enjoyed the meals and pies.
02 Dec: 139.0 😏 already starting to come down.
03 Dec: 137.8 😏 almost back to pre-Thankgiving weight
04 Dec: 137.2 😊Back to what I was before the weekend.
05 Dec: 136.4 😃That was a nice surprise.
06 Dec: 135.9 😁 YAY! But now I am at the airport flying to Las Vegas for a weekend of good friends, laughter and lots of good food! I am sure I will gain a few pounds over the next 2 days, but the plan is to lose them and a tiny bit more throughout next week, then next weekend of more festivities!
07 Dec:
08 Dec:
09 Dec:
10 Dec: 138.5 😬😡😫 Yep way up from a fun time in Las Vegas! The question is can I get back to 135.9 before Friday? Friday night is a huge Company dinner. And Saturday night we are hosting my daughter's Graduation party! She graduates with a Bachelor of Science! So proud! 👩🎓🎓🍾🥂
11 Dec: 137.1 😏🤪 Still have 1.2 pound to get back to preweekend weight. Can I make it by Friday? Fingers crossed!
12 Dec: 136 😊😁 Almost back to pre-Las Vegas weight! Fingers crossed I am there tomorrow!
13 Dec: 135.4 😁😁😁 Made it below my pre-Las Vegas weight, and only .4 pounds to my December goal. But tonight I have a Company dinner at Maestros Ocean Club, so fun, so yummy and so many calories 😋😋. Then tomorrow night my daughter's graduation party🥂🍾🎓👩🎓, so much fattening food and celebration! I will be fighting to recoop my weight again next week, but that will be the story of December.
14 Dec:
15 Dec:
16 Dec: 139.4 😫😯Wow! What a little (ok a lot) of alcohol🤪, and a lot of desserts will do to your weight. My daughter's party👩🎓🎓🍾🥂 was SO much work to get ready... I got in 30,000 steps that day, but it was SO nice and fun once it started! Here is to hoping I get down to 135 before Friday... I am wearing a REALLY tight dress💃 to another company dinner... I know spanks will help, but they are not miracle workers😊.
17 Dec: 137.4 😯😁 Going back down, again. While this is getting tiresome, the only other choice is to just not eat at my celebrations, which would really not go over well with the family, or in some instances, even possible. So, the yo-yo weight will continue through December. I still have high hopes I will meet my month goal of 135, then hit my target goal weight of 129.5 in January.
My bad days for the rest of December includes this Thursday, my company's luncheon (going to try to stay within my calorie budget this day)👩🏫🥗, this Friday, my husband's company dinner (this will be a high calorie day)💃🍷🍸, Christmas Eve🎄🎅, Christmas Day🎅🤶, December 28, high school friends yearly get together👭, and New Year Eve🥂🎉.
18 Dec: 136.4 😊😁 Coming down! 1 more pound and I will be back to my lowest this month. I would love to hit 135 by Friday! We will see!
😫PS: LOST MY FITBIT SHOPPING YESTERDAY!😡😤 I know I lost it at 1:00 pm that is when it stopped syncing. Now to figure out where I was at 1 pm, and go back there. Is there a way for your GPS on your phone tell you where you were at a certain time?🙄

Down 1.4 since last week. Staying on track, logging every day. Woke up with a horrible sore throat, several students at school were sick last week, although I have a very strong immune system, it seems its got me this time around.

Back again. Starting the month out with a bit of inflated number due to way to much alcohol, food from Thanksgiving, eating out the last couple of days, and had a 5 day weekend with my family. Hopefully once I get back to work on Monday it will drop off fairly quickly. My lowest in November right before Thanksgiving was 137.7 and I am hoping to be back in the 130's by the end of the first week.
May gained: 1.1 pounds (149.3)
June lost: 3.4 pounds (145.9)
July lost: 2.2 pounds (143.7)
August lost: 0.1 pounds (143.6) maintained
September lost: 2.7 pounds (140.9)
October lost: 0.2 pounds (140.7) maintained
November lost: 3 pounds (137.7) day before Thanksgiving 11/28
01 Dec: 144.4 uuugghhh
02 Dec: 145.7 ok back on track!
03 Dec: 142.2 it's amazing what a little bit of water and a low carb day will do for your weight. Down 3.5 pounds, 4.5 to go to get back to where I was before my Thanksgiving holiday!
04 Dec: 140.8 only 3.1 left to get back down
05 Dec: 139.4 have been staying on track and back in the 130's. Only 1.7 pounds left to get rid of.
06 Dec: 140.2 Cowboys played last night. Beer and pizza and a big LOSS!
07 Dec: 137.7
08 Dec: 138.8
09 Dec: 138.8 Not to bad for a Monday.
10 Dec: 138.3 should have been a little lower, but completely ok with this
11 Dec: 138.3 I guess I am figuring out maintenance. Would like to be just a couple of pounds lower, but not unhappy right now
12 Dec: 136.8 may be a tad dehydrated, but I liked what I saw on the scale this morning.
13 Dec: 137.7 Christmas party tonight so going to try and keep it together
14 Dec: 138.8 another party for the fights tonight
15 Dec: 137.7 football and relaxing
16 Dec: NW forgot when I got up this am
17 Dec: 142.2 way to many parties and a 3 day weekend. Back to work
18 Dec: 139.9 well I have not lost an ounce this month, but I seem to be maintaining pretty well. It's been a rough month!

Current weight: 63.4

11 Dec: 61.6 (cardio and a bit of abs)
12 Dec: 61.5 (cardio and some abs)
13 Dec: 61.1 (yay! I am away from home and found a scale so hope this change is not some variance because of the different scale and is still reflected in my own machine once I get home!)
14 Dec: 61.1 (yay! This is back in my own usual home scale! So happy! Tantalisingly close to my December goal!)
15 Dec: 61.3 (oops! I had it coming I guess. Ate heavy meals and snacked on greasy high sodium foods to boot! I spent an hour on the treadmill hoping to burn it but I guess it wasn’t enough! I will be good today!)
16 Dec: 61.2 (picking the heaviest of the three different weights my machine chose to show me this morning! But I am sure this is going down, I was really good yesterday with eating and exercise.)
17 Dec: 60.9 (yay! Met my new December goal! Cardio and abs yesterday and calorie deficit)
18 Dec: 60.8 (yay! Good food, cardio and abs)
19 Dec: 61.0 (well I knew this was coming, but I really enjoyed the food I had so I don’t regret it. I suppose once in a week I am entitled to treating myself, it is the holiday season after all! I will be good today and tomo we will see a drop, I am pretty sure!)

03 Dec: 67.2/148.2 🙂 TOM
04 Dec: 67.5/148.8 calories have been ok.
05 Dec: 66.7/147
06 Dec: 66.7/147 Cal’s ok, food TERRIBLE
07 Dec: 66.5/146.6 Cal’s ok food 😔
08 Dec: 66.3/146.1 Cal’s ok food 😔 went shopping for better food so hopefully I eat it!
09 Dec: 66.1/145.7 Cal’s ok, moved treadmill from HOT garage to air conditioned office. Haven’t been using it for weeks 🥵 no excuse now!
10 Dec: 66 /145.5 Cal’s ok food good
11 Dec: 65.9/145.3 Cal’s a bit over, had a frozen drink guesstimated what I thought was a generous calorie amount got home and looked up real Cal’s 😱😱
12 Dec: 65.9/145.3 Cal’s a bit over yesterday
13 Dec: 66/145.5 Cal’s a bit over yesterday. Last day of school for the kids before 7 weeks off. I love school holidays but I think it will make things harder, have a plan so hoping to prove myself wrong 😃
14 Dec: 65.7/ 144.8
15 Dec: 65.7/144.8
16 Dec: 66.1/145.7 🧐 it’s super hot here and I’ve puffed up again. Had to loosen my watch, belt and bra so I thought the number would actually be higher! Also went over in calories yesterday but not by much.
17 Dec: 66.1/145.7 still hot, 4 hours sleep last night. Someone else on here mentioned they gain around ovulation... I have never noticed before but looking back over last three months, I have gained about 1Kg/2.2lbs in the same three days leading up. If it does it next month I’ll be convinced it’s not a coincidence. Not sure if it’s a fluid thing or a bad food choice thing (that adds fluid) because I know that’s a problem around there for me. I dislike cooking and I always end up baking something like biscuits or cheesecake something high Cal’s. So interesting!! 😃
18 Dec:65.5
19 Dec:65.7/144.8 no excercise just spring cleaning (AKA impending visit from Mother in Law and Great Mother in Law 😏 not sure if that’s a thing) not too worried about numbers going up, still puffy.
