Hi everyone, hope you're enjoying the season.
I wanted to come check in because I'm struggling. I'm on day 3 of 6 of staying with my mom at home and I feel out of control! I've eaten over maintenance by a significant amount everyday, with Christmas Eve and Christmas still to come.
Normally I really wouldn't care at all, but the reason I wanted to lose the weight (started back in July) was for a wedding I'm attending/in next week. I'm trying to remind myself that I can't gain all sorts of weight in only a week and a half. I'm still afraid of looking/feeling bloated though.
Anyway, I hope everyone else is able to relax a bit more than me!0 -
Don’t beat yourself up over it! Go for walks to burn off or earn some extra calories. But between now and the wedding you shouldn’t suffer that much.
Merry Christmas everyone!1 -
Height: 166 cm (5’5.5”)
HW: 65 kg (143 lb)// LW: 50.8 kg (111.8 lb)
CW: 54 kg (119 lb)
Goal range: 51.5-53.5 kg (113-118 lb)
Current measurements remain the same as in July when I was around 51 kg
I’m around my goal, so for this month I’m going to 1) maintain it (weight and measurements), 2) carefully select my food, and 3) weight-train more regularly.
Dec 4th: 54 kg
Dec 11th: 53.4 kg
Dec 18th: weight doesn’t mean anything this week cuz my uterus says so...
Dec 26th: 53.8
Buckle up for the new year!0 -
Hi, everyone. Can you explain some of the abbreviations to me? UGW? HW? (is that highest weight?) SW? CW?

righto back to it tomorrow (28th). Had some bad news today so stuffed down the rest of the chocolate in one go and had far too much pasta. Plus side is there are no more sweet foods lying around. Tomorrow is going to be really hard, but it will soon get easier. I can't face weighing myself though, shall hold off until my usual Saturday weigh in . Going to buy a lovely low calorie ready meal for dinner , then have egg and turkey sausage for lunch. I'll be drinking lots of water too! Hoping i sleep ok tonight, been suffering insomnia past few days which really affects the way i eat (i eat far more when tired).2

Well I'm not sure how I pulled off weight loss in the past week, as I didn't hold back on indulging, and air travel. Maybe because I stopped working out?
Thanks @rianneonamission for the words of encouragement when I was freaking out!
I'm officially not logging for the rest of the year, as I leave for San Francisco tomorrow.
Happy New Year every one!3 -

Struggles/success: I expected that my weight would be high today. I arrived home last night after 1 week in the frozen north after eating with abandon and only 2 workouts. Frankly, I am relieved it’s not higher. I am really glad to be back on the band wagon today. Only NYE on the horizon. The rest is back to cold beans and bacon. I am actually really glad to be back to it. A year ago, I never thought that would be possible.1 -

I am feeling much better after my bout with the flu/food poisoning, but my weight has still been a little low. Good thing I have lots of Christmas cookies lying around!
I made it back into the gym today after taking a break to heal up, and WOW it kicked my butt today, but felt great!
Husband and I have also decided that we are going to take up yoga together. Once his giant-sized tall-person yoga mat arrives in the mail, that is.2 -

Last weighin of this year!
I must say that although i did not reach my goal for this month I'm happy that i lost just 1 pound even after all those family gatherings and christmas parties!

I think that being apart of this community and these monthly weighin groups has kept me accountable and has also taught me that its okay to mess up, I'd like to wish each and everyone of you a Happy New Years
and for only good things to happen to us (although iknow with all thats good comes with some bad) 2 -

I did it! After stalling for 3 weeks the weight started to drop after Christmas. It was a strange month, but I'm happy with the result. Without MFP and all of you guys I probably couldn't have done it, so thank you for that! Tonight there is one more night with lots of tasty snacks and drinks before it'll go back to normal.
Enjoy your New Years Eve everyone!!

What was I thinking?!
I wanted to do a final post here before moving over to January. I ate and drank everything over the holiday. Oh well, I had fun and regret nothing. I've got a long life ahead of me. It's okay to loose a week or two here or there.
See you all in January!2
