    Gain? I see no gain here... I ate all the foods and actually lost 2 lbs. No kidding. I ate all the wrong things and looks like I was rewarded for it.

    HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

    Posts like this make me feel so much better about myself. I gained a couple pounds too and it's comforting to know so many others are in the same boat. :laugh:

    Between Thanksgiving and Christmas - 11.2 pounds.
    Lost 1.1 of them already.

    I had a difficult time since the weather got cold, but I'm back on track now.

    4.5lbs for the month of December. I was severely limited in my workouts by a rotator cuff injury, there was food and booze everywhere, and I was 4lbs UNDER my goal weight so I wasn't really that motivated to be "good". Now I'm thinking that I should drop them again because I looked better, but whatever. It will come.

    3lbs but I'm not completely sure since I sodium can cause the scale to go up too, went from 117 to 119.5 in a one day so who knows but I weighed myself for a whole week and my weight had not moved more than a half pound but a few days back it read the dreaded 119, to much for my comfort anyways just trying to make it right again by upping my exercise and watching my food more , I lost 34 since Jan 1st of last year doing just that so this year should not be any different I have 10 or less to lose to reach my goal so I know it may take awhile yet . I will just keep moving forward I keep telling myself "Eat to live , Not live to eat "

    I put on five by last Friday, but it was only my glycogen/water being restored. Three days at a deficit and it was gone again by my Monday weigh in. Considering I was logging 4-5000 cals a day for a few days there, I consider that a win. :wink:

    I weighed in on the 28th weighing 1.1 lbs less than when I weighed in on the 23rd. No freaking idea how that happened.

    I ate big on both Thanksgiving and Christmas Day, but kept to my plan the rest of the time. Between 12/24 and 1/2, I lost 2 pounds. Between 11/27 and 1/2, I lost 5.5 pounds. Yeah!

    Hoping to maintain, but gained 2 pounds between Thanksgiving & New Years. Not bad overall, but time to get back in full swing & hit the gym again!

    I've been maintaining for about 7 months now...including over the holidays. I most definitely eat well and enjoy myself, but I don't treat the whole two months as a reason to go crazy and I don't really have a sweet tooth so all of those cookies and what not don't have a whole lot of appeal to me...I can have one and be good for weeks. I also stuck to my fitness regimen.

    Don't know because I don't weigh myself until the end of January! That sounds about right to me. Why obsess over it! :)
