    Hey @itladyee! I am pleased for you! So many of us need to see a scale to keep going. While yours was MIA you were obviously able to keep going based on your own scale-free habits. That is great! :)

    @liketoyak Just saw that loss! Way to go!

    @slimmersixties Yay! So close! We are cheering for you!!! You are such a rock for this group!

    @lindamtuck2018 I hope those medications get sorted out soon! Even though it keeps the scale down, that does not sound good. Yes, posting for accountability (e.g., yesterday pre-party) definitely helps me - then I know I have to say something to this group immediately afterwards.

    Good morning all,

    I just realized I never entered my weight last week, my apologies! We left Friday morning for a weekend in Sanat Barbara to celebrate my 70th birthday, my husband's present to me was sharing his cold! Between the festivities and the cold, logging my weight went right out of my mind.

    Back in the cold and snow today - sigh.

    A loss is a loss so I'll take it - I'm trying to get back under 240 again by end of year and am pretty close if I can just get off my butt and exercise!

    You are soooo close! Let's get it!! πŸ’ͺ🏽πŸ’ͺ🏽

    Slightly below maintenance range

    I have had quite a bit of nausea the last few days and yesterday I was throwing up. I have not eating much the last few days so that is the reason for the loss. These medication changes along with not enough sleep are kicking my butt. I have two more increases of one drug and four more decreases on the other.

    I hope to have an amazing Friday.

    Thinkin of you my friend 🫢🏽

    A bit below maintenance will give you some wiggle room over the Xmas/new year celebrations! But hope the sickness decreases as its good to feel well!
    I'm not planning a reward when i get to target ... I've done so much in this my 60th year! Just getting there is a reward in itself! I Will get to target but my maintenance weight is going to be 7lb higher as i feel that is more substainable and felt better for me :)

    Its such a bonus to be down after vacation. I think that is a good idea to set up a plan.

    Question

    What do you think your biggest obstacle to losing weight in the next month? How about the next 6 months? What are you going to do to overcome your obstacles?

    My biggest obstacle is myself. I miss days and become inconsistent through a lack of planning. I joined a 30-day challenge outside of MFP to overcome inconsistency which has helped me take accountability through daily reporting and having a plan for gym and non-gym days. I plan to continue with the habits even after the 30 days.

    I think we are all at times our own obstacle. Recognizing that is a big step and finding ways to overcome it is a really big step. Do you have plans to do the 30 day challenge in January? Congrats on the loss.

    My maintenance range is 157 to 163. I think it is important to set a range that works for us. I know from previous members that reached maintenance, for the first while they had to change their range a few times as they settled into maintenance. I think as long as I keep having nausea I am going to continue to lose weight. This morning I am down another pound. I will see what my weight is at the end of December and then make adjustments to my range.

    Missed my step goal but the positive is I did get the walking done. I just did shorter mini walks than usual.
