    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.

    Small success this week, passing the chip aisle without making a purchase at the grocery store!

    Struggles are the same every week, snacking because I am lazy and don't eat nearly enough protein (not a fan of most protein rich foods) and end up not realizing how hungry I am until I'm starved and need to eat something right away, which usually means nothing that I need to prepare and therefore nothing good for me!

    Struggles or successes of the week: I feel good about just maintaining over Thanksgiving holidays! My struggle lies in getting below 200. Got down to 198 a couple of weeks ago but only lasted a couple of days. Currently on a plateau, so maybe this challenge is what I need to kick-start again. Feeling pumped!

    Struggles or successes of the week: I signed up for the gym last Thursday for the first time in 15 years but have not been able to get there for lack of support and obstacles in the way. Short term goal is to get there tomorrow as soon as I pick my kids up from school so there is no distraction.

    Struggles or successes of the week: I have a celebratory luncheon on Thursday and I am sure there will be a yummy looking dessert there. Will plan ahead and make good choices. Unable to work out how I am used to, but did do upper body weights today. Will plan to alternate weights and core.

    I started walking. It's slow as I have a bad ankle. But figure something is better than nothing. Husband says I smell like ketosis breath Hurrah? And I am dying for some cookies (but haven't bothered to figure out a wheat free version yet <--wheat allergy. 11 days gluten free)
