    Can I be a late joiner??? I’ve lost 105lbs since Sept 2017, but I have hit a major plateau and need support and inspiration. I still have 30lbs to go. I lost my Dad 2 months ago, then needed emergency surgery and I’m struggling with comfort eating since then.

    My "Like" is for your weight loss of 105lbs, awesome! Not liking the lost of your father or surgery. Just to be clear. :-) Welcome aboard!!

    Cleaned out the fridge to make a vegetable casserole. My weight is up some today, but that always happens before a drop. Headed out for a hike now... Gotta keep going!

    This is perfect! I'm in. My birthday is Jan 31, so I'm super motivated to lose 12 lb (the last 12lb!). My watch-outs to stay on track during this period of time are (1) the holidays, (2) work - started a new job last month, my job includes some traveling oversees, (3) Snacking in the afternoons.

    Traveling for work is new for me. Any advise? It's overseas, never the same place.

    Hey YogaGirl, here are some thoughts on the travel, it’s what has worked for me so may be helpful. 1) keep your regular exercise plan. I do yoga in my hotel room when traveling, I find morning exercise helps with jet lag. 2) plan out a food diary before you go. Look at the menus in the hotel/ local restaurants/ meals booked with co-workers or clients and try to work out what you’ll eat before you go. 3) if at all possible I try to get to a supermarket and buy food there and keep it in the hotel fridge rather than eating out.

    So my first week was NOT successful. I have trouble avoiding stress eating, because I work in a fast food restaurant. Plus I think a consistent schedule with structure will help me pivot this week and have better results

    Ugh, emotional eating is tough. Glad you're here to share though - that's a success! Keep going!!

    Have been struggling to loose the weight I gained on a wonderful holiday celebrating my golden wedding 4 weeks ago. I have just discovered this thread and would like to join you all, I hope it will encourage me to get back on track AND stay on it. My weight is 144 lbs. It would be great to loose 20 lbs by the end of Feb.

    October overview:

    SW 208 (at heaviest)
    CW:200 (averaged)

    Lost 8 lb in October!... mostly water weight, and it isn't much progress because I was 200 pre-summer lol.

    Feels great to be back in the swing of things though! Looking forward to cranking out several more pounds before dec. 1st!... if I can just get out of bed....
