    Back again. Starting the month out with a bit of inflated number due to way to much alcohol, food from Thanksgiving, eating out the last couple of days, and had a 5 day weekend with my family. Hopefully once I get back to work on Monday it will drop off fairly quickly. My lowest in November right before Thanksgiving was 137.7 and I am hoping to be back in the 130's by the end of the first week.

    May gained: 1.1 pounds (149.3)
    June lost: 3.4 pounds (145.9)
    July lost: 2.2 pounds (143.7)
    August lost: 0.1 pounds (143.6) maintained
    September lost: 2.7 pounds (140.9)
    October lost: 0.2 pounds (140.7) maintained
    November lost: 3 pounds (137.7) day before Thanksgiving 11/28


    01 Dec: 144.4 uuugghhh
    02 Dec: 145.7 ok back on track!
    03 Dec: 142.2 it's amazing what a little bit of water and a low carb day will do for your weight. Down 3.5 pounds, 4.5 to go to get back to where I was before my Thanksgiving holiday!
    04 Dec: 140.8 only 3.1 left to get back down
    05 Dec: 139.4 have been staying on track and back in the 130's. Only 1.7 pounds left to get rid of.
    06 Dec: 140.2 Cowboys played last night. Beer and pizza and a big LOSS!
    07 Dec: 137.7
    08 Dec: 138.8
    09 Dec: 138.8 Not to bad for a Monday.
    10 Dec: 138.3 should have been a little lower, but completely ok with this

    @kellyswimmer I know exactly what you mean. I am so close, but have zero motivation. I am 2.5 pounds away from my final goal, but can't seem to push myself to get there.

    I've lost a little more than 20 pounds since late July, but I've been slipping up lately and not hitting my calorie target as consistently as I was earlier in the process. My goal for December is to finish the year strong and get back into the "normal" BMI range (<157 lbs).

    Starting weight: 184.6
    Start weight this month: 163.7
    Goal weight this month: 156.9
    Target goal weight: TBD

    01 Dec: 163.7 - stayed on track with my diet; no exercise
    02 Dec: 164.1 - stayed on track with my diet; no exercise
    03 Dec: 163.3 - stayed on track with my diet; no exercise
    04 Dec: 162.6 - stayed on track with my diet; no exercise
    05 Dec: 162.5 - stayed on track with my diet; no exercise
    06 Dec: 162.1 - stayed on track with my diet (had to plan carefully around a restaurant meal); no exercise
    07 Dec: 162.0 - ate at or slightly above maintenance level (darn late-night stress snacking); no exercise (hope to do better with exercise this coming week)
    08 Dec: 161.7 - stayed on track with my diet; no exercise
    09 Dec: 161.7 - stayed on track with my diet; no exercise
    10 Dec: 162.1 - stayed on track with my diet; no exercise

    πŸŽ„ Welcome to the minefield that is December πŸ˜‚πŸ€£πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ€£


    Journey so far:
    Jan 2015: I joined MFP, and gradually reduced
    Oct 2016: finally hit my target of 155
    Dec 2018: Had gradually wavered up again to 170s
    Jan 2019: Set new goal of 155 by end of the year
    July 2019: had bounced up and down between 160 and 170
    Aug 2019: Gave myself the proverbial kick up the a** and buckled down!
    Oct 2019: Set new goal weight of 150 by year end
    Nov 2019: Hit goal late Nov. I’m now focusing on increasing strength workouts
    Aug: -8.31 (a lot of this was holiday weight gained in July)
    Sept: -4.71
    Oct: -4.2
    Nov: -2.2 (Strength workouts temporarily slowing progress)

    OSW: 227 (Mar 2014)
    CSW: 170.1 (1 Aug 2019)
    DEC SW: 150
    GW: Under 150

    01 Dec: 150
    02 Dec: 150
    03 Dec: 149.9
    04 Dec: 149.6
    05 Dec: 148.8 Pleased that weight is moving again. This is the lowest I have been since my late 30s.
    06 Dec: 149.2 Normal daily fluctuations are a fact of life. And I have several shindigs today, so expect another temporary bounce up tomorrow.
    07 Dec: 150.4 Not too badly over goal, but salty snacks at wine tasting last night have had the inevitable result. It's the tightrope we walk. However, bouncing around 150 is vastly preferable to the 170s of last December.
    08 Dec: 149.6 Hopefully on the way down again but could just be normal daily fluctuations
    09/12: 148.6
    10/12: 148.8

    Female; Age 52; 5'2"; San Diego, CA

    Starting weight:- 173 pounds
    Goal weight this month:- 169
    Target goal weight:- 140

    We can do this! One step at a time, one pound at a time!

    01 Dec: Did not weigh.
    02 Dec: 173
    03 Dec: 173
    04 Dec: 172.8
    05 Dec: 172.2
    06 Dec: 172
    07 Dec: Did not weigh
    08 Dec: 171.8
    7 days since weighing. Down 1.2 pounds. Have committed this time around to lose 1lb per week, possibly less. It's hard to realize that the older I am, the harder it is to lose and dropping 5lbs in a week is just not realistic anymore. I'm trying to re-set that thought process and commit to logging every day and losing 1lb per week.

    Looking at all the posters' numbers, and seeing your 'slow but sure' numbers coming down - had I committed to this 2 months ago, I would be down 8lbs by now!

    09 Dec: 171.8 Treadmill 30 mins.
    10 Dec: 172 :( Treadmill 30mins. Felt a tweek lower back in the last 2 mins, been uncomfortable all day.Will probably take a break tomorrow.

    Thank you for doing this again this month!
    Starting weight 179.5
    Start weight this month 140.2
    Goal weight this month 135.0
    Target goal weight 129.5

    This month I have so many events centered around eating. If I can get to 135, I will be thrilled. I was 137.2 before the Thanksgiving weekend, I think the first 3 pounds will come off easy, but not sure if I will lose any more this month. It is definitely going to be a yo-yo on the scales with all the big food events.

    01 Dec: 140.2 😬 gained 3 pounds over the weekend at my mother-in-laws for Thanksgiving. I am sure much of it was water weight, but I also enjoyed the meals and pies.
    02 Dec: 139.0 😏 already starting to come down.
    03 Dec: 137.8 😏 almost back to preThankgiving weight
    04 Dec: 137.2 😊Back to what I was before the weekend.
    05 Dec: 136.4 πŸ˜ƒThat was a nice surprise.
    06 Dec: 135.9 😁 YAY! But now I am at the airport flying to Las Vegas for a weekend of good friends, laughter and lots of good food! I am sure I will gain a few pounds over the next 2 days, but the plan is to lose them and a tiny bit more throughout next week, then next weekend of more festivities!

    09 Dec:
    10 Dec: 138.5 😬😑😫 Yep way up from a fun time in Las Vegas! The question is can I get back to 135.9 before Friday? Friday night is a huge Company dinner. And Saturday night we are hosting my daughter's Graduation party! She graduates with a Bachelor of Science! So proud! πŸ‘©β€πŸŽ“πŸŽ“πŸΎπŸ₯‚
