    MFP Start weight: 160 lbs
    Started “just give 1 month” threads in Mid-Oct 2019 @ 157.4 lbs
    January start weight: 157.4 lbs
    January goal: 153 lbs
    Ultimate goal: 98 lbs, but that maybe too low. Main goal is to be healthier & stronger.

    October +2.6 lbs. (160)
    Nov. -2 lbs. (156.6 lbs)
    Dec. Stayed the same (155.6 lbs)

    Jan 1 = 157.2
    Jan 2 = 156.6
    Jan 3 = 156.6 I need to start back to planning my meals, again. Got way off during the holidays... with out of town guests & of course the holiday parties.
    Jan 4 = 157.4
    Jan 5 = 157.6 I haven't been trying at all the last couple days, but I just planned my meals, today. So, even if I don't show a loss the next couple days... I'm hoping that each day I'll be able to report that I was at or under calories...
    Jan 6 =156.8 lbs :) Yesterday, I stayed under in calories. I only had 24 oz. of water, though. Right now, my aim is for at least 32 oz. of water.
    Jan 7 = 155.6 lbs Stayed under in calories, yesterday. Only drank 24 oz of water, tho.
    Jan 8 = 156.8 lbs Did not stay under in calories, had a little stress eating or a lot of stress eating. Drank 32 oz of water
    Jan 9 = 158.2 lbs
    Jan 10 = 159 lbs. yep, I know. It's the stress, binge eating thang. Shtupid, me! I will get with the program!!!!!!!!!! I expect to be weigh up on Saturday, the 11th. But, please make this the last time that I do this!!! When I follow my plans, I usually lose & even feel better! Come on Elbee1 -- You can do this!!!!!!!!!! We all can do it!!!!!! I'm not gonna give up! Never give up! This is my year -- I know it is!!!!
    Jan 11 = 159 lbs Well...I was pleasantly surprised that I didn't gain even more. . . just stayed the same from yesterday.
    Jan 12 = 158 lbs :) Stayed under in calories, yesterday.
    Jan 13 = 157 :) Stayed under in calories, yesterday, too. Somehow I controlled my binge urge, tonight. Only over by 83 calories, today.
    Jan 14 = 156.2 :) Only over in calories, yesterday, buy 83. Been drinking 4 glasses of water daily. Almost stopped, today, & gave in to the craving of wonderful foods that were smelling so good as I was driving thru an area that has some wonderful restaurants. Then, later while driving got sleepy & had to eat to stay awake.. could have been much worse.
    Jan 15 = 156.2 :) Stayed under in calories, yesterday.
    Jan 16 = 156.8
    Jan 17 = 156.8

    Journey so far:
    Jan 2015: I joined MFP at 227 lbs and gradually reduced
    Oct 2016: finally hit my target of 155
    Dec 2018: Had gradually wavered up again to 170s
    Jan 2019: still wavering round 170
    July 2019: bounced up and down between 160 and 170
    Aug 2019: Gave myself the proverbial kick up the a** and buckled down!
    Oct 2019: Set new goal weight of 150 by year end
    Nov 2019: Hit goal late Nov. I’m now focusing on increasing strength workouts
    Aug: -8.31 (a lot of this was holiday weight gained in July)
    Sept: -4.71
    Oct: -4.2
    Nov: -2.2 (Strength workouts temporarily slowing progress)

    Dec: + 4.4 (Christmas indulgences)

    OSW: 227 (Mar 2014)
    CSW: 170.1 (1 Aug 2019)
    LW: 147.8 (Nov 2019)
    JAN SW: 151.4
    GW: Under 150

    Wed 01 Jan: 151.4
    Thu 02 Jan: 151.6 Not the best start. We got Series 8 of GoTs for Christmas and DH opened a box of liquorice allsorts as we were watching the first episode last night. I was under goal, but the sugar has given me a touch of bloat this morning.
    Fri 03 Jan: 151.8
    Sat 04 Jan: 151.4 Phew! Glad it’s started to shift again.
    Sun 05 Jan: 151.2
    Mon 06 Jan: 151.2
    Tue 07 Jan: 151.1
    Wed 08 Jan: 150.9
    Thu 09 Jan: 150.2 😍 not really expecting this drop as we were entertaining yesterday, and I did indulge somewhat.
    Fri 10 Jan: 150.2 😄 Happy that it’s sticking! 😂
    Sat 11 Jan: 149.9 😄
    Sun 12 Jan: 149.6 😄
    Mon 13 Jan: 149.4 😍 3 days under 150, and not yet half way through the month. Staying on track, upping the intensity of my workouts gradually, and reigning in on the snacks seems to be doing the business. Daily monitoring is underlining the need for being mindful.
    Tue 14 Jan: 149.6 😁 Note to self: Avoid salty snacks at bedtime! DOH!!!!
    Wed 15 Jan: 150.1 😏 Cause and effect! Water retention.
    Thu 16 Jan: 149.2 😍 Better!
    Fri 17 Jan: 150.2
    Sat 18 Jan: 149.6 Boing! Boing! Boing! 😂

    Target goal weight: 175 lb

    Jan 3: 322 lb (pm weighing - always my heavier time of day)
    Jan 4: 319 lb (yay down, but morning weigh in - will continue on mornings from here out)
    Jan 5: 317.6 lb :)
    Jan 6: 314.4 lb (thinking there was a lot of water weight to start, but I'll take it!)
    Jan 7: 314.4 lb

    Jan 9: 312.6 lb

    Jan 12: 312.4 lb
    Jan 13: 312.4 lb (the scale stopped at 310.6 but I didn’t believe it so tried again and went with the higher weight. But am totally stoked about the possible lower number!)

  • Starting weight 325lbs 22nd August 2019
    Start weight this month 264.4
    Goal weight this month 256
    Target goal weight 165lbs possibly less undecided yet!

    Going a little easier on my goal this month as I didn't make goal again last month. Missed by 0.4lbs!

    Sept loss 14.9lbs
    October loss 12.1lbs
    November loss 11.6lbs
    December loss 10.2lbs

    1 January 264.7! Great I start the new year up by 0.3lbs! Probably last night’s alcohol so back on the water today 😊

    2 January 264.5 down a little but weighed late in the day so hoping it’s not accurate! Walked miles today so here’s hoping for a little more off tomorrow!

    3 January 264.4 down a little but today is my birthday so I’ve had a glass of Baileys tonight. Fingers crossed it doesn’t do too much damage tomorrow!

    4 January 264.4 again! Aaarrrggghhh! Sick of this number! Know full well I slightly overdid it yesterday but also didn’t drink enough water but just a little drop would be encouraging at this point! Extra exercise the last couple of weeks as well and still not a great result! Frustrating but I’m going to drink more and keep plugging away at it! I will have a summer body for the summer dagnamit!

    5 January 263.7 finally a little loss at last! All that walking and all the water drunk did help. Guess I’ll keep going today then!

    6 January - didn't weigh today, busy day.

    7 January 264.4! Not impressed but TOM on the way and this always happens. Drinking loads to try to help. Not helping that I'm back at work today and having to sit in front of the computer all day isn't helping with my step count! Treadmill for hours later it is then. Humph at this. Hate fluctuations I can't help!

    8 January 263.3! Yay a loss at last! A new low for me as well. Definitely going to keep on with the water and have chosen a new supper meal to stop me overdoing the butter on my toast. I'm doing this!!!

    9 January 263.3 Now I don’t like this number either! Gah! Can’t really expect a daily loss but I always hope! At least it wasn’t a gain so I’ll take that as a win! 😊

    10 January no weigh in

    11 January 262.9 pleased with this. Another new low. I know it’s getting harder now but I think the no toast and butter change is helping. 😀

    12 January 261.9 so pleased with this. Feels like progress and the first real progress of this month. Hope it continues or I’m not going to make my goal this month either! Keep drinking the water! 💦

    13 January 262! Ah well, not going to worry about this one, too small an increase to matter! Had expected more of an increase as I wasn't well yesterday and didn't move about much at all. So I guess I'll take that happily! Keep drinking the water!

    14 January 261.9 It seems similar numbers are here to haunt me, but it's a tiny loss so I'll take it!

    15 January 261.6, again a little loss but still a loss! Decided to be tougher with myself about my ambiguous calories. I've got a long way to go so i want to do it a little more quickly!

    16 January 260.7 Pleased with this! Hoping 4.7lbs is doable by the end of the month now! I'd really like to hit my goal just once on one of these threads! I suppose I could pick a less aggressive goal but I need to be aiming high to help motivate me!

    17 January 259.7 😃😃😃 utterly over the moon to be in the 250s again! I even did a little happy dance 💃 this morning. Delighted 😁 6.7lbs to my lowest ever recorded on here or Fitbit and 3.7lbs to this month’s goal. 😊

    18 January 259.3 woo hoo! Another loss! Delighted 😁

    August: lost 5.5 pounds
    September: lost 5 pounds
    October: lost 10 pounds
    November: lost 5 pounds
    December: lost 5.6 pounds

    This month will be way different then usual. Doing the Daniel Fast starting Jan 5th for 21 days, for spiritual reasons. So my workouts will probably suffer a little and I will probably lose weight fast in those 21 days.

    Jan 10: 133.4 🤯 I know this is just a lot of water weight and will even out over the next couple weeks, so I’m not going to change my goal.
    Jan 11: 134.0
    Jan 12: 133.6
    Jan 13: 134.0

    Jan 17: 133.0
    Jan 18: 132.0 shocked I’m still losing. I feel like I’m eating so much food, it’s just Daniel fast approved 🤷‍♀️

    Starting weight: 163.4 lb
    Start weight this month: 147.8
    Goal weight this month: 140
    Target goal weight: 128

    August: lost 1.2 lb
    September: lost 4.2 lb
    October: lost 3.7 lb
    November: lost 3.9 lb
    December: lost 4.3 lb (but ended high due to New Year’s)

    (I use Happy Scale, so the losses above are determined by moving average. I will post my actual daily weight below.)

    01 Jan: 147.8 (my lowest in Dec was 144.6) Definitely indulged for a couple of days at the beach for New Year’s with family. I expect this to go down quickly after a few days back to my normal routine....hopefully, anyways!
    02 Jan: 148.8 I ate within my deficit calories yesterday, so this increase is either from DOMS (I’m still extremely sore from a hard workout on Tuesday), or it’s PMS a lil early? Oh well, patience!
    03 Jan: 148
    04 Jan: 146.8
    05 Jan: 145.8
    06 Jan: 146.8 —had buttered popcorn at the movies yesterday, ie, sodium-induced water weight!
    07 Jan: 146.8 —staying at a calorie deficit, but more salt plus PMS still, so I’m not letting go of the water! Patience...
    08 Jan: 147.4 Seriously! Admittedly, more salt again.
    09 Jan: 147 TOM today, finally!! Hopefully I can lose some of this now. I’ve been within my calorie goal, so something’s gotta give soon! (It usually takes 5 more days after TOM starts-boo)
    10 Jan: 146.4
    11 Jan: 146.2 Surprised, since I had Domino’s pizza last night—high sodium
    12 Jan: 146.8 Tearin’ it up in Jan! Lol
    13 Jan: 146.8 Uuuugggghhhhhhh!!!! I mean, patience...!?! Within my goal calories...
    14 Jan: 145.2 There’s some of it gone after TOM (Yep, takes 5 days after I start!). I’m still not down to my lowest in Dec, but hopefully soon.
    15 Jan: 146.2 Had sushi last night, so yeah, sodium!
    16 Jan: 144.6 Okay, finally back to my previous low from Dec. Now to actually lose some!
    17 Jan: 145.0
    18 Jan: 145.0 pizza last night—sodium!

    Jan 6: 140.6 🥵 I cannot believe I gained 6 pounds in less than 3 weeks. Hopefully much is water weight that I will shed quickly, though I did eat A LOT!
    Jan 7: 139.4 😉 heading the right direction
    Jan 8: 138.7 🙂 let's keep going!
    Jan 9: 138.3 😀 I am sure this is mostly water and food in my system, but I will take it!
    Jan 10: 138.6 🤫 Did not feel well and slept very poorly. Going out to dinner tonight, will eat around maintenance today, so expecting a little more jump in weight tomorrow.
    Jan 11: 140.0 😡 Well, had a huge meal with a friend I hadn't seen in a while. And a glass of wine and dessert! Oh well, moving on!
    Jan 12: 139.4 🤨 Still annoyed with my lack of willpower Friday night. But I am back on track.
    Jan 13: 138.8 😉 Almost back to my Friday weight.
    Jan 14: 137.9 😁 Yay! New low for the month!
    Jan 15: 137.2 😊😊 Today is going to be a LONG day. Teaching in the morning to my students, doing a professional development class for teachers, then tutoring, then back to school for parent teacher night. At least I will be too busy to think about food.
    Jan 16: 136.4 😉😀 I am sure I was just dehydrated. But I will take it! ☺
    Jan 17: 136.6 😏😉 Bumped up a little, but very happy that I lost 2 pounds last week and 4 pounds so far this month. Don't think I will meet my goal, but I know I will be close. 😊
    Jan 18: 158.8 😄😃 Went to Outback Steakhouse last night and forgot to ask the waitress not to bring us the bread. 🤭 But only ate one piece instead of a whole loaf! 😬. Happy with this loss! 😁

    January start weight: 157.4 lbs
    January goal: 153 lbs
    Ultimate goal: 98 lbs, but that maybe too low. Main goal is to be healthier & stronger.

    October +2.6 lbs. (160)
    Nov. -2 lbs. (156.6 lbs)
    Dec. Stayed the same (155.6 lbs)

    Jan 1 = 157.2
    Jan 2 = 156.6
    Jan 3 = 156.6 I need to start back to planning my meals, again. Got way off during the holidays... with out of town guests & of course the holiday parties.
    Jan 4 = 157.4
    Jan 5 = 157.6 I haven't been trying at all the last couple days, but I just planned my meals, today. So, even if I don't show a loss the next couple days... I'm hoping that each day I'll be able to report that I was at or under calories...
    Jan 6 =156.8 lbs :) Yesterday, I stayed under in calories. I only had 24 oz. of water, though. Right now, my aim is for at least 32 oz. of water.
    Jan 7 = 155.6 lbs Stayed under in calories, yesterday. Only drank 24 oz of water, tho.
    Jan 8 = 156.8 lbs Did not stay under in calories, had a little stress eating or a lot of stress eating. Drank 32 oz of water
    Jan 9 = 158.2 lbs
    Jan 10 = 159 lbs. yep, I know. It's the stress, binge eating thang. Shtupid, me! I will get with the program!!!!!!!!!! I expect to be weigh up on Saturday, the 11th. But, please make this the last time that I do this!!! When I follow my plans, I usually lose & even feel better! Come on Elbee1 -- You can do this!!!!!!!!!! We all can do it!!!!!! I'm not gonna give up! Never give up! This is my year -- I know it is!!!!
    Jan 11 = 159 lbs Well...I was pleasantly surprised that I didn't gain even more. . . just stayed the same from yesterday.
    Jan 12 = 158 lbs :) Stayed under in calories, yesterday.
    Jan 13 = 157 :) Stayed under in calories, yesterday, too. Somehow I controlled my binge urge, tonight. Only over by 83 calories, today.
    Jan 14 = 156.2 :) Only over in calories, yesterday, buy 83. Been drinking 4 glasses of water daily. Almost stopped, today, & gave in to the craving of wonderful foods that were smelling so good as I was driving thru an area that has some wonderful restaurants. Then, later while driving got sleepy & had to eat to stay awake.. could have been much worse.
    Jan 15 = 156.2 :) Stayed under in calories, yesterday.
