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!

Have reached ultimate goal...BUT, I'm planning to hang in there with all of you as the next few weeks are critical with Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year's Eve, New Year's Day and 4 birthdays all of which are between now and January 15th. They will be challenging weeks. Wish me luck! Best to everyone who is participating in this challenge. You are to be commended for your desire to be the best that you can be. Your health is the very best gift you can give yourself. Happy Holidays, everyone.
@MaryBethHempel you are making good progress toward your goal. Hugs, as you continue your healthy journey.

Happy Christmas Eve, everyone!
As of today I have been using MFP for a year.

I am so thankful for all of the encouragement and support given and received here!
