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
11 Dec: 138.3 I guess I am figuring out maintenance. Would like to be just a couple of pounds lower, but not unhappy right now
12 Dec: 136.8 may be a tad dehydrated, but I liked what I saw on the scale this morning.
13 Dec: 137.7 Christmas party tonight so going to try and keep it together
14 Dec: 138.8 another party for the fights tonight
15 Dec: 137.7 football and relaxing
16 Dec: NW forgot when I got up this am
17 Dec: 142.2 way to many parties and a 3 day weekend. Back to work

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 pre-Thankgiving weight
04 Dec: 137.2 😊Back to what I was before the weekend.
05 Dec: 136.4 😃That 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!
07 Dec:
08 Dec:
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! 👩‍🎓🎓🍾🥂
11 Dec: 137.1 😏🤪 Still have 1.2 pound to get back to preweekend weight. Can I make it by Friday? Fingers crossed!
12 Dec: 136 😊😁 Almost back to pre-Las Vegas weight! Fingers crossed I am there tomorrow!
13 Dec: 135.4 😁😁😁 Made it below my pre-Las Vegas weight, and only .4 pounds to my December goal. But tonight I have a Company dinner at Maestros Ocean Club, so fun, so yummy and so many calories 😋😋. Then tomorrow night my daughter's graduation party🥂🍾🎓👩‍🎓, so much fattening food and celebration! I will be fighting to recoop my weight again next week, but that will be the story of December.
14 Dec:
15 Dec:
16 Dec: 139.4 😫😯Wow! What a little (ok a lot) of alcohol🤪, and a lot of desserts will do to your weight. My daughter's party👩‍🎓🎓🍾🥂 was SO much work to get ready... I got in 30,000 steps that day, but it was SO nice and fun once it started! Here is to hoping I get down to 135 before Friday... I am wearing a REALLY tight dress💃 to another company dinner... I know spanks will help, but they are not miracle workers😊.
17 Dec: 137.4 😯😁 Going back down, again. While this is getting tiresome, the only other choice is to just not eat at my celebrations, which would really not go over well with the family, or in some instances, even possible. So, the yo-yo weight will continue through December. I still have high hopes I will meet my month goal of 135, then hit my target goal weight of 129.5 in January.
My bad days for the rest of December includes this Thursday, my companys luncheon (going to try to stay within my calorie budget this day)👩‍🏫🥗, this Friday, my husband's company dinner (this will be a high calorie day)💃🍷🍸, Christmas Eve🎄🎅, Christmas Day🎅🤶, December 28, high school friends yearly get together👭, and New Year Eve🥂🎉.

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

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.
11 Dec: 171.8 No exercise; food on track
12 Dec: 171.8
13 Dec: 172.2
14 Dec: 172 Ugh. Need to try harder.
15 Dec: 170.4 Wait, whaaaaat? OK, so a full week of yo-yoing and suddenly it drops. I'll take it, but hope it sticks.

Down 1.4 since last week. Staying on track, logging every day. Woke up with a horrible sore throat, several students at school were sick last week, although I have a very strong immune system, it seems its got me this time around.

16 Dec: 170.4
