    Marianne:
    I don't get invited to Christmas parties either! I consider it a blessing! They just aren't my thing.

    I think losing 1 pound a week is fantastic! I celebrate when I go down a couple ounces! I figure I am going the right way. And sometimes my body seems to hold on to the weight and then lets go of it all of a sudden.

    I think we all win if we lose weight during the holiday season. I've never been able to lose this time of year before. This challenge is keeping me going!

    Thanks!

    I weghed myself thismorning and I was disappointed to see that I only lost 1 pound this week. I guess it's better than not losing any or even worse gaining, especially at this time of year! Luckily, I have no social life and don't get invited to Christmas parties!

    So...
    Start weight for challenge 274.4
    CW = 267
    GW for challenge = 264.4
    Lost fro this challenge = 7.4 pounds
    2.6 pounds to lose next week if I want to win this challenge.
    Is this realistic, NO but I will try!

    No Christmas parties here either...after 20 years of "mandatory" fun, I'm more than happy to opt out :laugh:
    root beer & Texas hold 'em with kids at the kitchen table is my kind of magic anyway!
    No drop this week...calorie count up just a bit, but no weight gain...gotta push for that 6lbs by Christmas!
    for this challenge:
    SW: 152
    CW: 148
    GW: 146

    SLOWING losing, but even if I don't hit the 10 pound mark, I'll still be okay with it- :-D

    -If I lost weight with holiday food all around me--I consider that a success LOL

    Ok Christmas was here and so was the end of this 10lbs by Christmas Challenge...here's how I did:

    SW: 288
    Goal: 278
    CW: 278!!!

    I did it!! I am so happy I lost 10 lbs and have been working so hard. The last week I've put in hour cardio sessions (compared to my not-so-regular 30 min sessions) since I knew I would be eating lots more than usual with the holidays.

    I give everyone who succeeded (or came close) a big pat on your back!!

    7.4 lost to date. Weigh in tomorrow morning. Really successful holiday time. Lots of walking and watching the portions. I am looking forward to Jan 1 weighing less and onward momentum rather than dreading another lean Jan with nasty diet food after really overindulging.

    Might have lost 10 but I am at the end of my journey almost and the larger losses are slowing.

    Glad to see some of you made it.

    Happy New Year.
