    Name: Jamie
    Height: 5'6"
    Starting Weight (11/1): 246.0 lbs
    Goal Weight (12/1): 235.0 lbs

    11/1: 246.0 lbs
    11/7: 239.2 lbs
    11/14: 235.0 lbs
    11/21: 232.0 lbs
    11/28: 227.8 lbs
    12/1:

    Loss/gain for the week: - 4.2 lbs
    Loss/gain for the month so far: - 18.2 lbs
    Struggles/victories for the week: Thanksgiving was a success. I allowed myself to have a little scoop/piece of everything I wanted so I was still full and satisfied. Unfortunately I was sick all day yesterday, so wasted my entire day on the couch. I think my biggest struggle overall is getting the motivation to workout after work on Wednesdays and Thursdays. I don't get off until 6 PM and at that point I have to make supper, help my son with his homework, and then it's almost time for bed. Guess I need to try and get up earlier so I can workout in the morning. Hope everyone else is doing well and reaching their goals!

    Loss/gain for the week: lost 1 lb
    Loss/gain for the month so far: lost 2 lbs

    Struggles/ victories for the week: did not log for thanksgiving because I ate constantly. I cooked the meal and just couldn't control myself around the starches. Didn't log the next day, because I felt bad about myself and continued to eat the leftovers. However, my biggest victory is I'm heavy lifting twice a week and love it. I'll get back on track with tracking food today.

    Loss/gain for the week: +100g
    Loss/gain for the month so far: -2.8kg
    struggles/ victories for the week: My doctor increased my food intake to 5439kj or 1300cal a day to help my metabolism so I will hopefully start loosing again in the next week or 2. Exercise went well this week - increased both the amounts of rowing and walking distance and incline.

    Did not lose as much as I was aiming for but 2.8kg over the month is still good :)

    Loss/gain for the week: lost 2 lb
    Loss/gain for the month so far: lost 4 lbs

    Struggles/ victories for the week: My biggest struggle is limiting my wine at night. I love it and it helps me relax. For next month, I plan to drink 1 glass, and replace my normal second glass of wine with sparkling water. What I've changed this month, is I'm heavy lifting 2x a week, and taking long hikes with my dog 2-3x a week. I feel so much better, and I can see a difference in my body. I'm not sure that I've really lost weight, because I bounce up and down 4 lbs, but I feel proud about getting stronger and fit.
