Thanksgiving was fun and all but I did binge eat for several days, and because of that I know I won't make my end of November goal (145). Pretty close though so I am still proud. I will post again on the 30th if there is a change.

Updated for November 15. I started tracking last week as an effort to get in the habit. This week my focus is on not eating snacks after dinner and getting consistent with my calories. The weekdays are easier with a routine but weekends can be tricky with eating out.
I’m glad that Monday I was easily able to fit in lunch out with colleagues so far feeling great and taking it one meal at a time!
Updated for November 22. Really happy with my compliance to macros and calories at the moment. I’ve actually found that I’ve been underrating more than I’d like, but haven’t been hungry. Each afternoon I snack on a cucumber (newly acquired favorite snack!). This week’s goal is to meditate every day. Going strong!
Updated for November 28th. Interesting to see how weight fluctuates. I’ve been training consistently and eating fairly consistently, with a big eating day last weekend. Overall I’m happy with how I am tracking despite the lack of shift in weight. I’m feeling strong despite the calorie deficit and able to mix in a few unplanned meals out. My goal has always been to make this a lifestyle rather than a quick fix. I’ve tried the quick fix before and it’s made me and those around me miserable. I’m glad to take this slow- I always remind myself, weight loss is a marathon, not a sprint! And overall, I’m working to make that number on the scale less meaningful and have less control on my mood.

Going to make this my first challenge!
I've been logging everyday for a month.
Original starting weight - 206lb (Sept 2018)
November starting weight - 194.4 lb
November goal - 188 lb
Workout 3x/week
Ultimate goal - 160 lb
November 1st - 194.4 lb
Nov 1-8 notes: So far I've gotten in 2 workouts this week. Rockclimbing on Monday & a group class on Thursday. My 3rd workout this week will be a walk on Saturday. I'm thinking of joining a pushup challenge to gain upper body strength to improve my rockclimbing.
This week my colleagues have started to notice I've lost weight!
November 8th - 188.8 lb
Nov 8-15 notes: this week I struggled with cravings, oh my I wanted everything! I gave in, but didn't over do it (big step for me). Made it to the gym 3x this week as planned.
November 15th - 186.6 lb
Nov 16 -21 notes: already thinking about my next goals! I'm new to using the community aspect of MFP and am quite enjoying it. This is the first week since September I've seen the weight go up, I want to make sure I don't let this go to my head, ie don't give up or lose momentum. Since I've eaten out 3 times this week, I had a feeling this would happen, but its okay!
November 22nd - 187.4lb
Notes Nov 22 -29: Got in my 3 workouts this week, and made my Nov weight loss goal! I've found this last week I've been more hungry than normal, and might adjust my overall calorie goal as it's feeling a little too restrictive. Maybe a slower weight loss for next month... It may mean it'll take longer to get to my overall goal, but I think my chances of overall success will increase if I do this.

Total loss for November: One pound. Really? It's ok. I've had a steady decline all week and a little bump this morning. It's almost certain I won't hit my goal tomorrow, so I'll see you next month to try to knock that last five pounds off and get to 143.

@JennH517 Since we just finished our Thanksgiving feasts and weekend a few days ago, you have accomplished a TRIPLE victory.
1. Weight Loss in spite of surgery (restrictive movement and extra fluids via IV treatment.)
2. Weight Loss just after the Thanksgiving Feasts and weekend.
3. Weight Loss that has squarely put you in ONEDERLAND !!!!!
All your good choices have paid off. You are doing so much better in EVERY WAY. Congratulations on all the successes. Be as proud of yourself as we are of you!6 -

SOMETIMES I GIVE IN………BUT I NEVER GIVE UP !!!
I am weighing in on the First and the Last day of each month for a full monthly account.
Highest Weight Ever: 253 ( in 2014/2015)
Original starting weight - 235 (on Jan 11, 2018)
MY STATS:
Highest weight ever (2014/2015): 253
Original starting weight for this current journey : (1-11-2018) 235.0
My Final Goal: To weight 145 by Valentine’s Day 💗💗💗 By March 15, 2019 I hope to weigh no more than 153 after an initial and expected water weight gain after transitioning off my diet. I am allowing for (hopefully no more than) 8 pounds for the water weight.
November starting weight - 177.6
November goal - 5 lb Loss to be at 172.6
November Actual End Weight:
Weight/Comment:
November 01 - 177.6
November 08 - 179.6 Too much travel this week. All restaurant foods and no movement.
November 15 - 177.2 A miracle I came in this week at a loss. Lots of travel & restaurants this past week. Weight went up higher, but is slowly moving back down. It is nice to type the weight in red ink again!
November 22 - 176.0 Okay, mending well here so far. But two Thanksgiving Dinner’s are going to happen. I will just have to show a little restraint. Next week’s weigh-in will tattle on me for sure telling the whole story.
November 29 - 176.4 I am very proud of this weight. After my two Thanksgiving FEASTS , my weight increased to 180.4 !!!!! So I have been working non-stop to get back to where I need to be and I am now a touch lower than the start of this challenge. Tonight is a potluck dinner and tomorrow is my final weigh-in. I’m afraid I will show an increase overnight which may mostly be water due to carby foods. My goal here today is to keep the scale down to 177.6 or less (my start weight on 11-1-18.) Then I’ll feel like I managed to float and didn’t drown. I certainly hoped for a bigger loss. However, if these challenges can keep the gain at bay during the hardest holidays of the year in November and December, I can’t help but feel it’s a great success. See you tomorrow for the final weigh-in !

Weight Loss or Gain so far during this Challenge: - 1.2 lb LOSS

I do have a birthday middle of November so whilst I expect to have a cheat day or two I’m still aiming for 7lbs loss in November. I only started at the beginning of September so have consistently been losing 2+lb a week so this target seems reasonable yet still a challenge.
Will update on the 15th and at the end of the challenge.
Oh how I have to eat my words 😅😩 I have lacked motivation this month massively being unaccountable for days at a time. Today the scales are saying 241lb which is still a loss of 4.2lbs so atleast I have lost this month however it’s not what I wanted to lose 😩. This last week has been a lot better so I’m very much back on track so all is not lost.
Hope others were more successful 😬6 -

I didn’t exactly hit my goal, I saw it once briefly and just yo-yoed all around it. It’s frustrating but I’m very proud of what I did accomplish. I’m going to make my December goal to clean up that lingering 1.6lb that I didn’t destroy this month and focus on maintaining through the Holidays. Focus on fitness and getting in all of my workouts.
GREAT JOB EVERYONE
