    Hi, All!

    This is a follow on from the November 2015 Weight Loss Challenge. It works the same way: You set your own goals, then weigh in each week. (Feel free to change the weigh-ins to suit your own schedule.) Everyone is welcome, no matter what your goals may be. You don't need to have done the November challenge to join in December. (In fact, you can join at any time.)

    You will copy the form below, and paste it in a new reply, adding your own information. Each week you will update in another new reply.

    So, here goes:

    Successes/struggles this week: I pulled out very early in the November challenge after doing quite well in the October one... because I broke my leg! I definitely had a setback and didn't do much for a few weeks (and couldn't!) I'm done feeling mopey for myself and even though I can't really exercise, as I'm still in a moonboot for a few more weeks, I can still control my weight by what I put in my mouth. So here's to a much better month and to not let my injury (or a negative mindset) stop me!

    Hello all ! :)
    Feel free to add me to your friend list for additional support :D
    Are you doing some kind of sport this month to help in your weightloss? I'm following T25 and thinking about cizing it up to CIZE in the evening. I really want to start 2016 with a normal BMI, i've been working on it since the 3rd of November and i'm really close, only a few more pounds to lose.
    Here's to our lost pounds !

    Hi there!
    I'm Clarice and I really need this group to help keep me focused and motivated over the holidays!
    Height: 4'10"
    Starting weight, December 2: 146.5
    Goal weight by January 6: 136.5

    I will post:

    Dec. 30 (out of town)
    Jan. 6!!
    I will need a lot of help getting through the work potlucks!
    My weight has been a complete yo-yo this past year. I lost 30 pounds (down to 118), then gained them all back. I'm considered obese, but ALL my weight is in my stomach. I just had some new clothes delivered mail order and XL doesn't fit over my belly even though I am not even five feet tall! My downfalls are ice cream, cookies, and Jamba Juice Bowls (960 calories in one of those puppies).
    I am still recovering from a month with bronchitis , so I haven't been exercising at all! I love Zumba but my workout clothes don't even fit! Excuses, excuses!
    Thank you in advance for advice, motivation, etc. I would love to have an accountability pal!
