    11/30:

    Loss/gain for the week: lost .6 pounds for week 3
    Loss/gain for the month so far: lost 3.8 pounds
    struggles/ victories for the week: I exercised 5 days:Mon -Fri, tracked all food and stayed within my calorie budget. The weight is coming off very slowly. I thought 9 pounds of weight loss in a month was a reasonable goal but I don't think I'm going to make that goal. It may be more like 5 pounds.

    Struggles/victories for the week: My second week visiting new grand baby. Still lots of sweets being brought in by visitors. But my long walks daily in hilly neighborhood are working! I'm breaking even. (That's better than a gain.) I've got my Thanksgiving limits planned and will hopefully show a loss at the end of the month.
    PS This Thanksgiving I am thankful for this thread.

    struggles/ victories for the week: Very upset about this gain as I ate between 4933 and 5178kj (met my Macro percentages) daily this last week; plus exercised 5 out of 7 days (burning around 900kj each time). I should be loosing at least 1kg a week based on food and exercise. I am going to visit my doctor to try and sort out what is wrong.

    struggles/ victories for the week Struggle was Thanksgiving. I basically ate what I wanted and how much I wanted. And the next struggle was today the day after the Thanksgiving. The leftovers were too strong a temptation for me. I'm having my daughter come tomorrow and take this food away to her house. Victory was this beginner exercise program I started a week ago. Its going good and really revved up my weight loss! I couldn't believe it! It was hard but not so hard I couldn't do it.
