    I am not looking forward to my weigh-in tomorrow. I had a jump upward, then it headed back down, then up again, which is why I only count my weight once a week. We fluctuate for a number of reasons so I'm trying very hard not to let it get to me, and I'm hoping tomorrow's fluctuation is in the 'back downward' direction. Just keep swimming, I guess.

    Great job Everyone! Happy American Thanksgiving. Remember, it's not what you eat on one day (although let's not go crazy), it's what you eat ALL YEAR.

    I'm sure next month will not give me these crazy results so when I get discouraged, someone please remind me that November was crazy productive.
