I'm in! I have at least 30 pounds to lose by April (I'm a teacher and going to prom...again).
Origional starting weight: 192
December starting weight: 171.2
December goal weight: 160 (I know it'll be tough)
Ultimate goal weight: 135
12/2: 171.2
12/9:
12/16:
12/23:
12/30:
12/9: 168.0
Total December loss: 3.2
12/16: 166.8
Total December loss: 4.4lbs
Not nearly as much as I wanted, but I'll take it. My origional goal for December was to lose 11.2 lbs by working my booty off. I'm actually close to half way there, and I have 2 more weeks to go, of which I will only have to work 2 more days next week and I'll be on Christmas break, so I'll have more time to try and get some exercise in. I may still be able to get close to losing that other 6.8 lbs.
12/23: 162.8!!!! I about didn't believe the scale. I got off and back on 4 times!
December total: 9.4 pounds!!
Only 2.8 to go for my December goal. I am super excited right now. Christmas had better not completely blow it for me! Lol
12/30 - 162.6. Not nearly the loss I wanted for this week, but I guess it's still a loss. Aunt Flo showing up for a visit the last few days threw it all off track!
Total December loss: 9.6 lbs. not too shabby I recon.
So even though my "weigh in day" is Friday, today still counts as December, right? And if I weigh in first thing in the morning on the first, it still counts as losing that weight IN December, right? So my weight on January 1st really should be my January starting weight, and everything up to that point is December loss, right? Lol. I'm REALLY trying to get all my 10ths of pounds lost put towards my goal of 11.3 lost in December.
1.8 lbs to go to get that goal! 161.8 this morning.3 -

So much for that, completely blew it this week no motivation and way too much nibbling on junk. Cant wait to go back to work and get back into routine. Have put myself back 5wks, was almost in my weight range. Oh well I'll start again and move forward. Bring on next month/year.
That's not failure...you still lost!2 -

I am beyond thrilled as, knowing myself, I could have easily made it a +4.6 month instead of a -4.6. Just short of goal, but will happily take the participation ribbon! It's a slow and steady progress, not feeling deprived during gatherings but still being mindful of what was going in my mouth.
Thank you so much for this thread, it was just the right amount of accountability that works for me.8 -

Well, my weight stayed the same since my last post. With the way I've been eating Christmas cookies, I'm very lucky. The house is almost "clean" of treats now, and I think I've had my fill. I'm ready to give myself another push toward goal.
