    Struggles or successes of the week: No successes, that's for sure. I've gained 2 lbs since my last weigh in which was a week or so ago. I did meet all my fitness challenge goals, though.

    Struggles or successes of the week: I realized that I had gained back half of the total weight I lost over the last year. I lost 30 lbs from January-April, then I met friends that like to eat. I exercised over the summer, ate Nutrisystem, but it didn't work. Coming back to college for the fall, I gained back 15 lbs. I'm ashamed :( Hoping to find motivation through this forum!!

    I struggled with eating my food at Thankgiving..I ate it in moderation. I still gained 2 lbs and then dropped them right away when I got back on eating right. My motivation this week is a NSV I am in a size 8 now:-) !!!! I started on my quest to lose weight 12/13 and was about to go into an 18....soooo waaahoo we can do this:-)

    FInding motivation is difficult but I think this is just what I needed! :) good luck everyone!
  • I've always tried to do things independently and have been successful. The past few years I have been out of control and completely unmotivated except for occasional half-hearted attempts to lose weight. I'm finally realizing I need support. I would like to lose 30 pounds...I plan to tackle 15 at a time. Let's start with December.

    i have a hard time sticking to anything! i have always been thin, but after a big lifestyle change, complacency took over, and i woke up realizing i'm the heaviest i have ever been! i've been trying to eat better for ages, but i always fall off the wagon, and this time i can no longer make excuses.

    hooray for this challenge! and kudos to all of you doing it! :~)

    Struggles or successes of the week: I only meant to have one day (Thanksgiving) of eating without counting, but it turned into three days. I was down to 261.4 the morning of Thanksgiving. With all the bloat and excess the scales show a 5 pound difference. I am feeling very bloated and uncomfortable. However, I feel very comfortable with being able to get back into the routine and know that this gain is temporary. That is a very good feeling. I just wish I hadn't blown such a large "loss". :neutral_face:

    I have just taken part in a 6 week challenge in town and nearly lost 5kg, I am hoping to continue the trend of losing weight rather than gaining which is the road I was on before the challenge.

    Okay, I'm in! Any active people that aren't easily offended please feel free to add me. I've had great success on here, but after getting close to my goal and changing jobs, stopped logging and gained. I need to get serious again. I hope everyone finds some motivation to make it through December!

    Every healthy choice leads to another.
