    I’ve lost just about 13 lbs since starting keto Oct/30. And this December challenge is coming at a perfect time for me because I have my first wedding dress fitting (!!!!!!!!) at the end of December. The bridal shop ladies kept freaking out when I said I was losing weight and kept asking if I’d be at my goal weight by the end of December— WELL I WOULD LOVE TO BE, BUT THATS A PERSONAL QUESTION KATHY!!!!

    I’m new to using groups like this. Do you just update your own comment with your weight loss each week? Or post a new update? HALP!

    Thank you for the clarification! I’ve been tracking pretty consistently, so I can back track here!

    I survived the Chinese buffet. Had 2 FULL plates of salad, then one plate of steak, pb chicken, mushrooms, and a taste of general tsos chicken. Doused the fortune cookies in siraccha so I wasn't tempted. Win!

    @size102b Goodness you are being organised, well done you, for planning ahead like this. I've no idea what's happening it's a day by day thing as we are eating out or with friends and family all the time. Frankly I will take no gain as a loss!

    I'm in for some December accountability! My goals are:
    ☆get my water in
    ☆follow whatever exercise plan the trainer and I set up this morning
    ☆blow the dust off my running shoes and get back at it
    ☆keep my macros in check and be as far south of 200 as I can be by Christmas Eve. I'd like to start 2018 under 200#.

    12/01: 201.3 (still coming off Tgiving)
    12/03: 199.3
    12/10: 197.8
    12/17:
    12/24:
    12/31:
    Accountability:
    ☆Water - not where I need to be but more mindful, so it's increasing. Need to focus on this this week. SO-SO SUCCESS!
    ☆Exercise - still no plan from the trainer, so using that as my excuse to do nothing. EPIC FAILURE!
    ☆Running - again, EPIC FAILURE!
    ☆Macros - I've been pretty awesome this week with the excepion of Chinese buffet on Friday, and even that was pretty successful. EPIC SUCCESS!

    @MimiOfTheLusciousLawn You're doing great! Don't sweat the lack of exercise. I get it...no exercise here either. I have a referral to a physical therapist, but they won't call me back! So I want to start some kind of exercise program, but I don't dare without professional advice. I don't need to end up in traction! LOL!

    Water was hard for me at first too. I found a 48 ounce mug in Walmart I think. I just fill that up twice and I'm good to go! 96 oz of water.

    And you ARE doing AWESOME with your macros! Keep it going! Yay you!!!

    Another loss this week! This is the first time in a while I have been consistent and not cheating. I love what I eat and don't even miss the sugary carbs!

    November 27th : 177.6
    12/3: 172.2
    12/10: 169.0

    Well, I have to say, I'm disappointed. I have followed the woe and when I weighed myself yesterday, it read 218, but this morning, I'm back to 219 plus six ounces...I'll keep at it, but it's a little discouraging.

    12/3: 221 lbs
    Today: 219 lbs
    12/10: 219.6

    You're doing great! Our weight jumps around like that much to our dismay! Don't be too discouraged. You're still down from the beginning of the month!
