Happy Sunday, everyone!
Here I am.... still stuck! I've gained and lost the same 2 lbs for the last month or more. Does that count as 10 lbs lost?! No, I didn't think so...
Trying to look at it as holding steady over the holidays without gaining is a win. We had our office Christmas dinner this past week and I totally over-ate. The restaurant portions were ridiculous and I even brought a to-go box and had lunch the next day. I very rarely do that. We don't eat out often, but when we do I usually clean my plate (which isn't necessarily a good thing...)
Staying within 0.3 lbs over the last 4 weeks doesn't really mean a gain or a loss to me.
On a slightly more positive note, I saw new daily low yesterday and today of 207.3. I've been in 207 territory before over the last month, the previous low was 207.7 I've flirted with a few times in the last few weeks. I'll take that as a positive sign.
I'm doing my Christmas baking today... and I'll allow myself a few treats and work them into my calorie allowance. The fastest way for me to fall off the wagon is to feel deprived. If I can just hold steady the next couple of weeks, and not back slide, then I can focus on getting to ONEderland in the new year.
Here's a picture I had taken a couple of weeks ago when I was on the TV show set and had my hair and makeup done. Even the young twenty-somethings I was sitting with were surprised how good I looked AFTER changing from slacks and a sweater, into my dress, and getting some primping!
Highest weight ever: 254 in October 1999.
Lowest since 1999: 195.
Original starting weight: 243 in 2015.
MFP Starting weight December 25th, 2016: 233
Goal: 180 in however long it takes.
Average from November 20th - November 26th: 208.2
November 27th to December 3rd: 208.1
December 4th to December 10th: 208.4
December 11th to December 17th: 208.5
Loss for December: 0.3 lbs. GAIN.
MFP Loss: 24.5 lbs.
Total cumulative loss: 34.5 lbs.
Until next week...
Move more, eat less.

Ugh, not feeling great about up & down this month. I’m late putting in because I didn’t want to look at this and feel even worse. Thankfully, I was bored waiting for something to finish today and figured I might as well look. I guess I’m it the only one not quite making their goals which helps. Thanks for being here whether you are losing weight or not.4 -
