Sorry I forgot to post. I logged it in my MFP on my phone but forgot to post into forum. No loss this week, could still be retaining a lot of sodium from Thanksgiving. Going to try and flush it out and start back exercising regularly. I've been such a slacker since school started.

Got a pair of running shoes for my birthday so I'm excited to start that. Hope ya'll had a great Thanksgiving!

And yes, I ate my daily veggies/fruit for the week. Thanks for the challenge, Falisha!

I don't know if it's too late but I changed the weight loss category I'm currently in... I went from trying to lose 21.5 lbs to 10 lbs. There is no way I'm going to make it to 21.5 lbs at this rate so I thought I would change so that my weight loss goal was still attainable. :happy:

I have nissed a few weigh ins. Some by accident, but I'm sure at least one was purposeful. I probably didn't want to face the fact that I have gained (and then of course post it here for all to see, but that's why we're here, right?) So I am back, thank you Falisha for adding me back to the chart. One day at a time, one meal at a time, one goal at a time. Thank you to everyone here, you may not know it, but you are helping just by being part of the challenge and sharing your struggles and victories. I am up, quite a bit, but my hope is that by the end of the challenge I will have lost 4-6 pounds from today's weight. Nowhere near my initial goal, however, my revised goal is more of a mental challenge and taking the baby steps needed to feel (and continue to feel) successful.

Posting a little late this week. Sorry, Falisha!!

This week I was slow in losing prior to Thanksgiving; then, after Thanksgiving, I was up a little more than a pound. I had hoped that was mostly water retention as I counted my Thanksgiving calories and thought I was within my goal for the day, but here it is 3 days later and I still haven't dropped below my Thanksgiving morning weight of 190.6. I am still way ahead of my original goals I set for myself, so it isn't too disheartening, but darned if it isn't frustrating!!!

:flowerforyou: You guys are amazing. I have been reading everyones charts and what achievements so many have made. Its Inspiring and helps keep me motivated.

Jess7170 - Every little step counts and I often have to go back to the beginning and do like you one day, one meal, one minute of exercise at a time. You will be back in action in no time.

Sigsone - Congrats on being in Onederland. Can't wait to be there myself. Must admit when I joined MFP had no idea what people where talking about with 'onederland'. As I weigh in kilo's. My goal is next to be in the 80's and out of the 90's. Although after always converting my kgs to lbs for challenges I will certainly be celebrating 'onederland' as well.

321blueyes - was that 10km in 57.51. That is fantastic. Not sure what a Turkey Trot is. But you were not trotting more like zooming.

Falisha - not only awesome at holding us together but also a great weight loss. Well Done.

shydaisi - you have not only had amazing weight loss but consistant as well.

A quote to share with you all today from my little book of Inspiration

"You can effect change in your life if you are willing to put in the effort."

Sherrielsb

Well, yuck, I am up a pound and a half to 204, time tog et my sweat on first thing tomorrow morning. After dinner tonight any fattening turkey day leftovers are going into the trash, I'm sick of hearing them call me!
