I didn't get to my goal and I HAD hoped to get into the 160's but its ok.....I am far from finished. I lose it slow and steady and I will keep it off. The holidays will make it harder but time is on my side. I hope everyone reaches their ultimate goal one day! Thank you for this challenge!!
You did Great!! Slow & steady wins the race AND prepares us for successful maintenance !!

Final GOAL weight (on Feb 14th, 2019: 145.0
Highest weight ever (2014/2015): 253

Challenge STARTING weight (on Aug 26, 2018) : 179.0
Challenge GOAL weight (in 12 weeks) : 161.0
Final Weight at end of Challenge: 174.6
Aug. 26: 179.0
Sept 05: 180.8 Oh my! Chinese sodium.
Sept 12: 176.4 That’s more like it!
Sept 19: 178.6 Back & Forth like a See-Saw. Travel damage.
Sept 26: 174.8 -3.8 lbs. The comeback kid! Whew!!! I blew my 6 lb goal this month, but ended closer than I thought I would!
********Total Lost in Sept:……….-4.2 lbs LOST
Oct 03:……. 174.0 Hoping for a great month! Let’s Rock October!
Oct 10:……. 175.2 Don’t forget to schedule your mammogram!
Oct 17:……. 175.4 Some travel this week. I hope to have an okay scale victory for next week regardless.
Oct 24:……. 179.2 Too much travel this week. More to come. Going to Univ hospital about 4 hours from home for my cancer re-check and mammograms. Hoping for the best! I will have my work cut out for me when I get home Thurs night.
Oct 31:……. 177.2 Mammogram turned out great. I am still in remission. I can’t believe I pulled off a loss this week with all the traveling I have done! I am still down from the beginning of the month so that is disappointing.
I will do much better in the week to come.
HAPPY HALLOWEEN
*********Total Lost in Oct: +3.2 GAIN
Nov 07: 178.6 Too much travel this past week and more to come including today. I’m just not strong when I am away from home. I continue to work on my mindset and my strength when given off-plan choices. I’ll never give up!
Nov 14: 177.2 I could have done much better, but I’ll take it.
Nov 21: 174.6 Whoosh! Thanks to a 24 hour egg fast and parsley water.
*********Total Lost in Nov until challenge end: -4.0 lbs LOST
Challenge Weight Loss so Far: – 4.4 lb Loss
GOAL Weight Loss for this Challenge: 18 Lbs
Total ACTUAL Weight Loss for this Challenge: 4.4 lbs Lost
Final Challenge Thoughts: While I didn’t come near my goal, I did lose a little in the right direction. Every little bit helps. I thought summer would be the most challenging, but September and October have been the worst since I started my journey. I’m just glad I didn’t get a gain and keep it.! I look forward to the next challenge that @tiabirdie56 started yesterday.

@deepwoodslady, Donna, 4.4 lbs solid! Don't worry about the fluid gains they come off quick enough.0

Last month more about maintenance than loss, getting my body comfortable with low 60s (not high 60s) to help avoid rebounding when the silly season comes1 -
