    SW: (Starting weight) HW was 168 (not counting prego weights haha)
    CW: (Current weight) 148.8
    GW: (Goal weight for the month) 143

    Weigh in Dates:
    11/1 148.8
    11/8 146.2
    11/15 145.0
    11/22
    11/28 142.2
    End of Month (or whatever weigh in days you use) 143.8

    Total weight lost: 5 pounds exactly

    I was down to 142.2, but then gained 1.5 yesterday, but seeing how I didn't eat THAT much food, I'll be losing that in the next few days more than likely. Still, either way, I made it to 5 pounds lost, so I'm happy with it :smile:

    I'll be setting up the December group momentarily! Unfortunately for me, this month ended up more as moderator rather than loser, but the whole point of being here is NEVER GIVE UP!

    I'm thankful that I was able to get off of a very self-destructive path and turn things around. There was a part of me that thought I wouldn't ever make it back. It took about a year and a half to do so. Hope to continue making the right decisions. Thankful for this idea/motivation. Thank you for posting!! :smile:
