    Been eating less and working out as much as possible (at least once a day) and it's definitely paying off!

    Total Loss for November: - 8.1! This past week I reduced my sodium intake and lost 8 pounds in a week. I am almost at my November goal but the next few weeks will be a test because my husband and I will be out of state from Wednesday-Sunday and then next week is Thanksgiving. We’ll see how the rest of the month goes.

    I am going in the wrong direction!! Not sure what my deal is. My commitment has gone down and I'm disappointed in myself for letting it get this way. Sigh...

    I'm in! I tried the daily weigh-in, but I was too frustrated with no loss or gains. So I think the weekly is better for me. I'll weigh in on Saturdays.

    Starting weight - 204.8
    Current weight - 178.8
    November Goal - 175
    Ultimate goal - 150ish

    4th – 180.2

    You may get close to 199 by the end of the year...Don't give up, Jenn! Have you tried intermittent Fasting? It helps me a lot! Not eating after a certain time of the day (or night).

    I really appreciate your encouragement, Tramaine, thanks!

    I don't do too well with fasting, I am more likely to over eat afterwards. For years I ate one meal a day, and look how that worked out for me :)

    Most days I eat 3 meals, I don't usually snack between meals. Breakfast is usually light, yogurt or whole grain toast. Weekends might be more, but if we have a bigger breakfast we have an early supper and skip lunch, or I have a Boost shake to tide me over.

    If I go too long I get the low blood sugar shakes.

    I'm sticking to my calorie goals most days and if I go over budget it isn't my much. Last Friday we went to a Grand Opening of a restaurant my friends opened, I have been waiting 9 years for them to get back in the business, so I went over that day. That is exception, not rule.

    We are getting into the colder weather so I won't be as busy outside, I need to keep moving. Last winter I walked laps around the warehouse at work before my shift, but these days management don't seem to arrive early to let us in before the workday starts.

    I am not giving up. I just wish I was a little closer to goal than I am. My plan was to lose 1 pound per week. I'm about 46 weeks in, only 23 lbs down. Going at half speed. Better than going in reverse!

    I record the prediction of MFP on my calendar. When I complete my daily diary and it says if every day was like today, you would weigh...

    It is interesting to compare predicted weight with actual weight. MFP is fairly close if I am consistent, but plateaus aren't predicted, nor are they predictable.

    The scale yielded a bit today, I will take it!

    Thought it was going to be much harder but I guess having a 3 month old son and breastfeeding is actually helping me. I miss cookies and alfajores (Argentinean cookies with dulce de leche and cover with chocolate) but I'm keeping myself out of temptation playing with my son...
    I just want my pre pregnancy body back and maybe lose a bit more because here is almost summer....
    I use google to convert from kg to Lbs hope is ok.

    7th- 216.0 i do weigh in daily because i like to keep track. The scale has sat on this now for 5 days even being in my calorie goal. So frustrating.

    14th - 214.9 Once again im at a stall weight loss wise. When comparing to last week it is a slight loss so i should be thankful but its getting a lot hard for that weight to come off the last month or so.

    The losses are tiny and it's going slow, but at least the scale is sort of showing progress. I bought a blender to make green juice and I'm hoping that will help.

    I weigh daily too, and average weekly. I post my average each Sunday. Averaging shows a trend, whereas a single daily weight at intervals just shows a small snapshot.

    Hang in there, the scale will move again. I was stuck for a good while but I am seeing movement again.

    I also weight daily but record weekly weight as logged weight. A great app I found is 'Happy Scale' when you input daily it averages your true weight :) Nice little motivator
