@tiabirdie56, these are the challenges I’m going to revisit, thanks brilliant idea for this week. Plus my main focus is going to try NOT to snack at night. If I need to have an apple or fruit, it’s healthier than the cookies my husband is eating NOW, lol.

My name is Jenn I have 5 kids (1st one just left for college this year and another one that will be leaving next year). I am 39 and married to an amazing man. I work full time and have very little time to work out. Hopefully once the younger kids 10 and 13 get a little older, I will have more time. Right now I focus on eating right and maybe two to three times a week getting 45 minutes or so of cardio.
Beginning Weight ~ 175-178
Challenge Starting Weight ~ 155.3
Challenge Goal Weight ~ 135
My weigh in days will be Friday (these are usually my lowest weights, lol)
November 20, 2018 ~ 155.3
11/23 ~ 157.8 day after Thanksgiving uugggh
11/30 ~ 153.8 that looks better
December 7 ~ 152.3 I thought this week I would have been lower. Did really well. Not a drop of alcohol, clean eating, lots of water, and everything. I just don't think my body can lose 2 pounds a week no matter what. I am getting closer to my goal weight, so maybe that's why to. I am proud that I stuck to my plan this week and am down 1.5 pounds, so I'll take it!
12/14 ~ 151.1 Going in the right direction for sure. Hopefully we can keep this pattern going!
12/21 152.8 And I am back up again,lol. I'm holding on for dear life for December. I am still down 1 pound this month and that maybe all I get.
12/28 ~ 152.3 Going back down. Had a lot to lose after Christmas though. One more holiday weekend and we are back on track. Happy New Year everyone!

I’m going to a Boot Camp class at my gym tomorrow, I’ve never went to one so I’ll see if I like it, lol.1 -
@GrandmaJackie, Oh, have fun! I would LOVE to do a bootcamp workout! Pretty much its a ramped up circuit workout. I really am annoyed about my knee. It keeps me from doing the type of exercises I like and want to do.
178 showed up in the scale this morning. Thats what comes from eating at midnight! It should settle down in a couple of days. I'll be helping it along.0 -
