Wow, on Friday, 10/25 I was 2 pounds lighter than my weigh in today and it was due to a dinner party that I attended on Saturday. To prepare, I did a long workout on Saturday morning and save my calories for the dinner. So telling how mindless eating can really affect fitness and weight loss goals. I say fitness because I did eat some empty calories... Oh well, one must live and carry on! Have a great week everyone...2 -
@bearly63 - feel better, hard to keep your wits about you when in pain... I hope relief can be had!
@spayne444 - Welcome, I joined late as well, nice to have company to weigh in till the end of the year.

“Life loves to be taken by the lapel and told: ”I’m with you kid. Let’s go.” – Maya Angelou
My goal for this challenge is to power through the Halloween & Thanksgiving holidays and avoid as many temptations as possible to show a one pound loss per week. Out-of-town Christmas shopping travels will be the biggest challenge!

09/30: 192.0
10/07: 187.2 Traveling today & Wednesday. I hope I don’t wipe out all my progress!
10/14: 190.0 I hate travel!
10/21: 189.2 I wish I could have made more lasting progress.
10/28: 187.8 Trying very hard. Travel this week so it will be a week of breaking even.

@trishfit2014 and @asolita Thanks ! Got quite the shock at the doc....its Shingles dang it! Not a slick yoga move that did it. The pain is from neuropathy along the nerves in my ribs, and now I have the telltale rash in the same area. They put me on anti-virals and some pain med for neuropathy. Feels like I have been punched in the ribs. Oh well. I was just talking about getting the shingles vaccine last week lol. Maybe next week
@fourathomej - I had birthday week last week so I feel your pain! You can do it....just try to plan ahead and save some calories for some tastes here and there. Good luck!2 -
Can I jump in late? I love threads like this, they really help me keep accountable!

Since Monday are my highest days of the week, I will put my Sunday weight and include my 7 day average for the week. Really looking to break into the 130's by the end of this challenge.
Highest Weight: 178
Current Weight: 145.4
12 Week Goal Weight: 135-138
Ultimate Goal Weight: 135-138
Weigh In:
9/23: 143.7 (Avg 144.6) - Weekends are my downfall. Had my youngest daughters birthday party and drank a little to much with the family on Saturday. It always hits me 2 days later.
9/30: 140.9 (Avg 142.34) - tailgating for the Cowboys game. Drank and ate way to much yesterday. Feel terrible today and realizing I am getting way to old for these crazy weekends anymore.
10/07: 141.5 (Avg 143.5) - Took a 3 day weekend this weekend. Had a little bit of a fall Saturday night and just needed to rest. The hubby and I are going to see a movie (Joker) and probably go out to lunch. Not having any snacks or popcorn though at the movies.
10/14: 143.6 (Avg 143.13) - My lowest Monday ever. Did really well this weekend and am super proud that I held it together. If I can get my Mondays (which is usually my highest day of the week) down to 138 I will be stoked! Although, I haven't even been able to get my lowest days of the week into the 130's yet, lol.
10/21: 143.9 (Avg 141.97) - Yup I had a really good weekend. Darnitt! At least my 7 day average is still trending down.
10/28: 139.7 (Avg 143.37) Was high all week for some reason, but ended lower. Did a 24 hour fast on Saturday, so my Sunday weigh-in is probably lower than it should be. I am sure will bounce back u p, but was nice to see this morning.

Well, weight is back down and composition is holding steady. At this point, I'm looking at my goal weight of 175 and thinking it is just about stepping out of reach for healthy loss in the remaining time frame.5 -
Missed my weekly goal weight by 1 lb. But that's okay. 4-5 lbs per week may have been a little aggressive. Been working out a lot and eating lots of protein so I am gaining muscle as I burn the fat. Pretty happy that I've been able to stick to my workout and eating plan / goals. Hope everyone had a great week!!!

Muscle is denser then fat, when you work out your fat is replaced with muscle over time and eventually you may start technically gaining weight in muscle while your body looks even better and more toned from the decrease in body fat percentage.3 -

Thanks so much for the kind words. It was actually my husband and 2 kids birthdays all in the same week. The stupid shingles is driving me crazy...not itchy but yes, painful neuropathy around my ribcage. I am still going to work out but have to take Advil to do it. I am one of the lucky ones - did not get it on my scalp and face, where it can affect your optic nerve. Not fun. That's where my mom had it.1 -
