Well folks, I'm done for the month. I just don't see any positives the next 10 days continuing. This worrying and obsessive thinking about the holidays is getting tiring. It's time to get into the holiday spirit! I will still be logging and exercising but the scale is being put away until next year. See you all in the January Challenge!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!0 -

I DID IIIIIIIIT
Name: Salah
Age: 20
Height: 178cm (5ft 10")
Start Weight (1st December): 82kg (180.7lbs)
Goal Weight (1st January): 79kg (174.1lbs)
1st December: 82kg (180.7lbs)
8th December: 179.5 lbs
15th December: 178 lbs
22nd December: 174 lbs
29th December:
1st January:
Weight lost this week : 4lbs
Weight lost this month : 6.7lbs
Successes/struggles week 1: The biggest struggle for me was eatin. I've spent all of last week gradually cutting out junk food from my diet and this week i realized i really didn't have much else to eat. I averaged 850cal a day, which is BAD i know and probably why i didn't lose much this week. The fact that i wasn't hungry didn't help (the cold make me forget the hunger ._. ) I'm trying to eat more this week.
Successes/struggles week 2: I'm honestly surprised that i lost anything this week. I ate a lot, tried to stay healthy by i still gave in a lot of cravings. Was a really stressful week (midterms) and snacked a lot (tried to keep it with healthy snacks, mainly fruits and crude vegetables). I did workout so maybe that was it. This week is shaping up to be worse tho; i'm really afraid of a gain
Successes/struggles this week (3): I DID IT! I'm at the weight i challenged my self to be by the end of December!!! Finally, after FIVE YEARS (That's the quarter of my age) of being overweight, i'm on the normal range of BMI!! I'm really happy!
It's weird tho that i lost 4lbs this week seeing as it's a week I didn't work much in (if we compare with the other weeks). I didn't workout as hard ... I just hope i won't gain before the month is over, i really want to start the year with a normal BMI (:

Successes/struggles this week:
This week was ok for me. Got workouts in for the most part. Stayed within my calories the days I was off. I'm still finding it a little hard to stay within my calories the days I work. Because I don't workout the nights I work staying within calories is hard for me and the food at the cafeteria at work doesn't help0 -

Weight lost/gained this week: - 4 lbs (1.8 kgs)
Weight lost/gained this month: - 4.5 (2 kgs)
Successes/struggles this week:
Week 1: I was surprised by the unexpected weight loss but certainly not complaining. I have been doing a lot of walking so that helps no doubt. Christmas festivities ahead so that will likely take a weight toll too upward so it's good to have a few lbs banked I guess. Also, light is at the end of the tunnel for the top end of my goal weight. Nice present for myself if I get there.
Week 2: Bummer week on the weight gain but no surprise. Company all week took its toll. Will have to hit it extra hard this week. This will be tough month for losing weight for sure.
Week 3: Bounced back this week with some extra exercise. Some more company coming in for the holidays so it will be difficult to keep the weight off. I did hit my goal weight for the month but it may be temporary. We'll see. Merry Christmas all!
