    Thanks, stalled this last week but probably because I have had a cold. Just keep doing it is my mantra. Keep the deficit and continue on.

    I reached my next small goal. I planned to be able to fit comfortably in this leather jacket I was eyeing at this one store. It was a bit snug on me back in November. Not any more, I bought it, with a size smaller pair of pants and a size smaller sweat shirt today.

    Next goal is try and drop below 280 in January before leaving for Florida next month.

    Don't worry about it. It's a new week and Holidays are just about done. Hold on :)

    Total weight lost: 3 lb

    This is the first weight in this month I have not gained or lost weight.
    I have also increased my cardio, and started weight lifting again slowly. They say your weight can initial go up for a little while when incorporating weight lifting.

    I also felt I was over eating using the Harris-Benedict formula. So as of today I have switched to the Katch-McCardle formula. After reading more into it, looks like a better calculation for me.

    If anyone has any other ideas suggestions please comment. Thanks!

    1 more weight in to go, I still have time to lose 2 more pounds before the end of December!

    I gained 4lb over the past 2 months due to a broken leg. My goal this month was to maintain, actually, although I lost a pound so far, so I'm ahead of the game.

    Total weight lost: GAIN of 3 lbs since Dec 1 (but temporary)

    So, obviously I've got the "Christmas" gain showing this morning. I still think it's important to show the fluctuation to be accountable.

    To all of us that indulged, please remember that it is NOT a failure. Get back to the logging and exercising--we have four days for the salt/carb/water bloat to subside. Good eating and moving to you all!

    My weight is up, knew it would be and I am ok with it, kind-of. Need to be ok with it. It will happen when I am maintaining permanently. Last day of the break is the 4th than back to losing. My weekly weight is only up .1 of a pound, so not to bad. Just hope my weight doesn't go over 140.5lbs!!

    Congrats to everyone who is losing and those who keep trying. You can do it!

    I made some poor choices this last week, but i own those decisions and move on. I have 2 days to lose a half a pound. Should happen after my 2 runs so if it does, I will be happy.
