    I didn't meet my challenge - I'm just going to begin it from 1st with the No More Excuses group and truly start from there. It feels like a cop out but I'm going to review everything & be ready for the 1st.
    Well done to everyone who acheived weight loss & to anyone disappointed here's to a new year, new you & if anyone has motivation pills I'd really love some please!!!!!:wink:

    Yes I am excited about the "NO MORE EXCUSES JANUARY, LOSE 10+ LBS" and the "Can you lose 50+ lbs by July 1st, CHALLENGE!!!" both start on January 1st. How I make the charts is I keep everything logged on excel. Then I save the file as a .jpeg. I then upload the .jpeg chart to photobucket.com and then I take the coded link and paste it on the message board thread, and I change the IMG to a lower case img at the beginning and the end of the link and once its saved the chart appears on here.

    Sorry for the late weight in. I'm embarrased to report that I've gained 0.7 this week :sad: ; I actually gained a bit more than that because I was down to 262.6 lbs on the 24th. I was carefully to stay away from carbs and sweets over Christmas and I still managed to gain. However, I also did not exercise, so really I only have myself to blame.... :mad: I'm so dissapointed. I need to get back at it!

    1st December: 270.6 lbs
    8th December: 267.2 lbs
    15th December: 264.4 lbs
    22nd December: 263.7 lbs
    29th December: 264.6 lbs

    Goal weight: 262 lbs

    Have a good week!

    As of today 218 still. I will take that and stop beating myself up because its 12/31/10 and my goal was 214. When I started this challenge I weighed 229. So that is success. And all of you who have lost, own your weight loss and be very proud of yourself. This is the hardest month of the year to lose weight. Food is litterally completely surrounding us at all times during the holidays. For those who have joined January challenge, get ready, cuz we will be losing those 10+ lbs!!!!! Everyone keep up your hard work. I'm proud of all of you and thank you for joining this group. On Monday I will post the final chart so you can see our groups final weight loss.

    1 December: …. 165
    8 December: …. 162
    15 December: …160
    22 December: …156.6
    29 December: …156.0
    31 December …..155.7

    Goal: 155 by Dec 31st.

    I had been averaging an 8 lb loss a month with Weight Watchers so this is excellent. But this last pound (or 2) could be back tomorrow depending how I eat at Red Lobster tonight and how much I drink.

    Things I did different this month:
    Added low carb whey protein shake once a day.
    Using the new Points Plus program at Weight Watchers since Nov 29. This change meant eating more fruits and veggies. I switched my usual processed carbs (snacks and deserts) for fresh and frozen fruit.

    I'm ready for the new challenge in the new year!

    Thanks Stephanie.

    Dec 1: 246.0
    Dec 8: 243.8 (-1.2)
    Dec 15: 242.9 (-0.9)
    Dec 22: 240.0 (-2.9)
    Dec 29: 237.0 (-3.0)
    Dec 31: 236.0 (-1.0)

    Goal: 235 by Dec 31

    I didn't quite make my goal but 10 pounds in a month - especially December, when there were holidays AND my anniversary to contend with - is still pretty good.
    Today is also my 100th day on MFP and I am down 44 pounds in that time period - I'm thrilled with that progress!

    Well - I didn't make the progress I'd hoped for this month, but I feel like I'm solidly in the 180s again, and in a good place mentally/physically/etc. to keep going down. I'll take what I can get!
