Name: Samantha
Height : 5'4.5
Highest weight: 318 (approximately)
Current Weight: 299.9 (Stomach bug though, dropped about 8lb.) If I am 302 at first weigh in I am good with that, then maybe up a little more the following week (hopefully not).
Ultimate Goal Weight: 195
Goal for December: 299.0 That might be a lofty goal or an easy one dependent on how much I gain back from the stomach bug.

Hey, it's great to see new folks hanging out! Friend me if you like!
I ended up at a wash for November, that last week I gained back what I lost the previous 3 weeks---UGH!
December is actually not as tough for me, as long as I avoid making treats. If I can maintain, I will be happy---but I did set an aggressive goal.
Cheers everyone---hope you all have a great month!0 -

I reached my november goal, i had a bad flu and wanted to make sure i had a few days of eating before i did a weigh in agin, that counted anyways. This week i seen thr lowest number that i have seen in about 3 years but then i had to eat. So it is now my december goal to get past that number. 5 lbs is a big goal for me, but i am so excited to get as far away from thr 300's as possible.
Hope everypne has a great month!!!!!

Well, took my thanksgiving gain back off, now back to where I was the 3rd week of November---I'm sure some was water from a lot of salt. Ready to dig in my heels for December!
We got our first snow of the season--TEN INCHES! mostly melting now, but what a way to start!1 -

Not much so far and while I would like to be under 300 for the start of the year, if I can just maintain or even lose just a few lbs this December, I will consider it a win!!

Well, this is the last full week before Christmas
I have a family celebration on the 18th. Maybe some activities on the 24th and 25th. I did not cook any treats this year, that helps a lot. I do seem to be giving a lot of food for gifts this year, to my employees and kids....living vicariously? haha!
Hang in there, we will get through the holidays. I am going to try to keep my damage as little as possible---it takes SO long to lose it again.2 -
