    Hello! This is a great idea! My goal is 15 lbs, but anywhere close to that will make me happy :smiley: I tend to eat poorly when I'm rushed and the holiday season is when I am the most lacking in time. Especially meal prep time!

    Hello. I'll join. It would be great to lose some weight during the holidays instead gaining. I'm not making my goals too ambitious because of the holidays. Good luck everyone who joins.

    Okay, first day! I've already had a protein shake for breakfast. It's raining here so I can't do my 3 mile walk.
    My downfall is snacking between meals so that's what I'm working on today. I find planning my meals ahead
    of time helps since I can focus on the next meal instead of staving off hunger. Today I'm having a tuna creation
    pouch with a big fresh salad for lunch. Supper is pork loin chops with herbed new potatoes and creamed spinach.
    I even have a backup dessert plan of 80 calorie Greek yogurt (I put these in the freezer for about 45 minutes first -
    great icey texture) or kiwi fruit and small satsuma.

    Anyone else have a "game plan" today?

    Sounds like a good day :) Yum! I love those tuna creation packs and now I might have to get some lol

    I slipped on breakfast after going out with coworkers for a breakfast meeting, but my lunch in spinach fettuccine with grilled chicken, spinach, and pesto sauce. For dinner I plan on having vegetable lasagna or maybe I'll make a stir fry with brown rice. Feeling a bit drained of energy, so I'm really trying to meet my calorie intake goal rather than being below it.
