    October: 151lbs
    Current: 157lbs.

    I injured my knee on October 10th and have been sidelined from running ever since. I managed to maintain my weight for several weeks but after Thanksgiving, it just went downhill. I recently started cross-training with the goal of maintaining my cardiovascular strength and muscular endurance until I can get back on the road. Hopefully, with holiday food in my past, clean food in my fridge, and Crossfit on my schedule, I can lose about 7lbs in the next month or so and get back into my uniform pants. Haha.

    Not sure! Haven't weighted myself yet-I'm afraid too. Been overeating and drinking my share for sure. yesterday I at least started back with exercising and logging again but I still went over my cals. Will try to at least break even today!

    So far......3.5 lbs. Off work for a week and not getting my normal exercise.

    Really hoping it is just water gain and will go away quickly but don't think I am that lucky. Sigh.

    not sure if christmas weight gain or TOM weight gain but like 1 pound. I definitely didn't eat that much though I'm sure it's just water weight.

    Lost 1.4lbs.
    Combination of a cold (not much in the way of exercise) and sticking to my portions on Christmas (though I went over on a few macros).

    On 12/26/12 I was up 5lbs. 12/27/12 I was down 2lbs. 12/28/12 I was down 1lb. So in total- up 2lbs. I feel like I lost a weeks worth of progress.

    I've gained 4lb after eating what I wanted and not exercising for the past week.! Really annoyed at myself, but it's my own fault for dragging out the christmas excuse. Back on the wagon today though!


    Thank goodness it's not just me. Having read a few of the posts on this thread I was beginning to feel dreadfully weak and feeble. I put on about 4lb and will be working to drop it again over the next couple of weeks.
    Still got New Year and some yummy food in the house to get through though!

    Same here -- about 4 lbs =( Pretty sucky but I knew that I was eating way too much!

    I gained 6 pounds, but this is over the past month.

    I started going back to the gym Wednesday.

    As of this morning I'm sitting at only 0.4 lbs up from Dec. 1. I did have food poisoning for about 24 hours on Christmas day though, for what it's worth. I am one of those people who always fluctuates up or down 4-8 lbs over the course of a week, but I'm in the same ballpark as the beginning of the month. No loss, but no real gain. I take that as a win for this time of year.

    I actually lost a pound, took care to log everything every day and stayed under my calorie goals, remained accountable, worked out/exercised where possible...but most of all, I didn't sweat it either way :) I still indulged in treats, that's for sure (mm, cake)! But I did limit all of my portions. I also don't eat pork or beef and I don't drink, and my home Xmas party was completely vegetarian. As well, every party I went to I brought fruit for 'everyone' (read: me) and filled up on that instead. Don't worry, everyone! We all know it's not permanent and we are going to work hard :)
