So the holiday curse begins. I didn't go to work today and spent the day running errands and hanging out with my daughter. While I tried to be thoughtful about my food choices, I was over my caloric goal. However, tomorrow I will be attending the Turkey Jam @ Lifetime Fitness. 60 minutes of athletic step! Here's to trying Happy Thanksgiving

Your personal goal - To drink no more than 3 servings of soda per week.
How you are doing on your personal goal - I'm surprised I did so well! I have been having some health issues so my loving boyfriend got me ginger ale (yay!) and then I realized that it was still classified as soda, so I only had 2 cans and then left it alone.

I would be almost down to my goal...but for Thanksgiving! It was the lightest Thanksgiving on record for me, but then we went to my grandmother's house and she served us some yummy, yummy pie! Back on the wagon this week!

well, it's been a fairly successful month. On Sunday the 19th, I was at 222.2 and just new I would make my goal weight of 221 for Novemeber. However, I came off Thanksgiving Day week with a +7 lbs. Amazing how fast you can put it on by eating all of Grandmas Crab Salad.

I decided to do the December challenge and get more involved with our Team

Big lesson for this challenge.....weight loss now means holding off on the goodies...they will be there next year when I'm learning to Maintain!! my weight.

Overall successful!! Great Work :flowerforyou:
