@SamanthaLouiseMence Merry Christmas to You and Yours!!!

December 1 - 193 - up one pound from yesterday : - ( (186 would have been the reading on the new scale)
December 2 -193 - glad that I didn't gain, I was pretty over-indulgent over the weekend.
December 3 -194 - kind of discouraged with the fluctuation. I had a good day, expected a loss.
December 4 -194 - I really expected to be less this morning. On track to lose.
December 5 -192 - back to where I was at the end of last month's challenge.
December 6 -191 - Wow! Lots of days left to get down to that next decade. Seeing the scale move is motivating!
December 7 -191 - Getting excited to get out of the 90s, hopefully by next week
December 8 -192 - Dang. Oh well, I will stick with it. I over-ate yesterday and expected this. Very easy to put on, hard to take off.
December 9 - 192
December 10 -191- Good. Monday morning. Easier for me to be diligent during the week, so hope to see another drop this week. 2 steps forward 1 step back still equals going forward : - )
December 11 -193 - Geez do I fluctuate!
December 12 -191 - Skated yesterday. It seems like no matter what I consume, that I lose weight after I skate.
December 13 - Skated again, I think that I have messed up my calendar here, because the 191 should have been the 13th.
December 14 -193. Unbelievable, 2 days of skating and up 2 pounds? Really expected a loss today. I don't measure my inches until the 27th. Glad that I am not weighing once per week, seeing as how this fluctuation is going. I actually like seeing it, I didn't realize that it could be like that. 2 pounds is a lot!
December 15 -193
December 16 -193. Funny, I feel lighter but the scale isn't budging. Went out to Zumba class yesterday and really expected to see it on the scale. Maybe tomorrow.
December 17 -192
December 18 -192
December 19 -190.5
December 20 -190 - I am thinking of getting a digital scale like y'all seem to have. I just have an old school one.
December 21 -190 - Looks even slightly less than that, but I am on a "regular" scale. I did buy a digital scale yesterday, but after setting it up I stepped on it 5 times and each time it was different so I will return it today and try to get a better one. Skated yesterday - 600 calorie burn, I have been at good input levels all week.
December 22 -182.2 - New scale. 189.2-ish on my old scale
December 23 -181.5 - Unbelievable since I had a steak with all of the trimmings, alcohol drinks. Maybe it will catch up with me, maybe it is because of the Zumba yesterday.
December 24 -184.8 - 3 pound gain?? That is just crazy. Already learning from weighing every day about fluctuations, but this is the biggest so far. I upped my water from 2 glasses per day to 8 yesterday. 184.1 after the bathroom lol.

christmas only comes around once a year - just enjoy yourselves and indulge in the things you love and/or want
Get back in track the next day or the day after at the latest

Remember this is a life choice, not a diet - it is ok to splurge now and again
We’re only human after all and we don’t want or need to deprive ourselves

Have a merry Christmas everyone - I hope Santa spoils you all xx

I love this. Thanks for the reminders. May you also have a very Merry Christmas and may 2019 find you meeting all your goals in life.
