Dec 1: 241.6. My goal this month is a little light, i would rather set it to 230, knowing i have some water weight right now, but i also know i have Christmas with both sets of in-laws this month.
Dec 8: out of town, no scale
Dec 15: 239.4. I'll be honest, I am surprised to be below 240 today. I have one more week of school before break, with my husband's birthday and his family's Christmas standing between me and my next weigh-in for this challenge. Don't think I will reach my 235 goal, but I can make small gains and keep from going the other direction. 10 degrees this morning, so going for a run was not going to happen. Hope it warms up a little over break.

I’m happy I lost 4# this week. Been playing around with shortening my eating window (no evening snacks & later b-fast) and my body is responding! Still my December goal is a stretch goal given it will be holiday and off my routine. But I’m liking the progress so hoping I stay w/the current trend!7 -

Last week I didn’t weigh on the same day/time. So, I wasn’t sure with the numbers. Hey-ho this week I did remember to weigh on my usual day and time and all seems well.
I just have to say that, I’m giving myself a pat on the back for staying focused and motivated this week and not getting derailed!!! All 3 of my kids fell ill one after the other. Sleeplessness was a STRUGGLE especially when my baby fell ill.... I just had to share my NSV.7 -

UGH!!!! I've stalled... again. But today is a new day... so am doing my daily reset and restart. Good to see everyone here... checking in, staying focused, some big losses, some small losses, all showing up and staying true to commitments to ourselves, making and working hard to meeting goals. We got this!!!

I have not weighed in this Monday morning, but staying on track, under my calorie goal, will do it next Monday. It's just so cold (with the broken boiler) that I wear layers to sleep and my scale is in the freezing cold bathroom 😕 it should be replaced this week5

I started December 1st with an inflated weight due to my Holiday Dinner the night before. So I am revising my goal to reflect the end of November weight (my lowest) and my goal to lose all of the gain during Thanksgiving plus 5 pounds. Maybe I’m dreaming, but I’m going to give it one heck of a shot!
FEMALE NAMED DONNA – 58 YEARS YOUNG – 5’ 5” TALL – FROM THE MIDWEST USA
Highest Weight Ever: 253 (2014/2015)
Starting Weight on current diet/journey : 235 on 1/11/2018
NOVEMBER ENDING WEIGHT: 182.4
DECEMBER GOAL: 177.4
DECEMBER ACTUAL:
Weight Loss so far for this challenge:

Dec 03- 183.6 Whoosh! Okay, still a bit up from before Thanksgiving dinner but I’m happy with this (for now).
Dec 10- 188.4 This is what pasta from a dinner invite look like on me. Back to basics today!

December Start Weight: 144.4 inflated due to vacation and Thanksgiving. Lowest in Nov. was 137.7
December Goal Weight: 136
Ultimate Goal Weight: 135-138 maintenance weight
Dec 1: 144.4 gained almost 7 pounds on our 5 day Thanksgiving vaca. This is what sodium, alcohol, and carbs look like on me.
