Successes of the week: tracked all, took daily long walks/hikes, used nature to inspire my art to help me relax. Reading a book!
Struggles:
Tired.
Cat surgery, stressful
Colonoscopy, ok but it’s out to pathology, stressful
More use of food as comfort, but had a good past 4-5 days. Don’t want to gain my weight back.
Scale is up, but this was a planned experiment. I lost wt before the Thanksgiving trip & planned to lose whatever I needed to in December. I was optimistic that I could do this given my successes in November. What I didn’t account for was suddenly I’ll cat who needed surgery & several other things that all hit at once.
Things have settled down. She’s doing GREAT!
Working to lose weight these final days of 2019!
Goal: 155 or lower on New Year’s 2020.
Regardless, I’ve kept my average weights between 152 and 157 from Nov 2018 thru Nov 2019
That’s the longest I’ve ever maintained ever! I’m really working to keep this perspective❣️

Age: 69
Height: 155 cm (5’ 1”)
Total weight lost: 22.5 kg (approx. 50 lb)
Time it took to lose: 9 months
How long in maintenance: 7 months
Maintenance weight range: 48 – 51 kg (106 – 112 lbs)
Average weight recorded from 2018: max 72.5 kg in July, 56 kg in Dec

December 2nd: 48.2 kg
December 9th: 48.9 kg
December 16th: 49.3 kg (trend 48.5)
December 23rd:
Successes/struggles: The scale fluctuations this week have been ridiculous. The 48.9 kg last Monday didn’t last, down to 48.4 on Wednesday, 48.1 on Thursday and again on Friday morning. Then I went away for couple of days. Two nights of three course dinners plus full breakfast (I had cereal, fruit, scrambled eggs with smoked salmon and toast both mornings), and another 3 course meal for Sunday lunch. However, we did lots of walking and I had a 40 minute swim on Saturday evening. So, this morning the scale read 49.3 kg! Well, I obviously didn’t gain 1.2 kg (about 2.6 lb) in two days so I wait to see what happens in the next few days.
My average weight over the last 2 weeks has been about 48.5 kg as is the trend on Libra so I'm not panicking.
This week should be quiet apart from a visit to the theatre with my daughter and two grandchildren. So I can get back to my routines of cardio, gym, sensible eating.5 -

HEAVIEST weight: 175.4 in early 2013.
Total Weight lost: 30 pounds
Time it took to lose: ~6 months
How long in maintenance: Since July 2018 -- but with some fluctuation outside of goal range.
Maintenance weight range: 142 - 148 (and not sure that's the right answer)

December 1 - 8: 144.7
December 9 - 15: 144.6
December 16 - 22: 145.1
Success of the week: Sticking pretty much dead in the middle of my maintenance range. Surviving the darkest day of the year. Today we have a whole extra SECOND of daylight where I live; we had 14 seconds less yesterday than the day before, and I'm glad the daylight is returning.
Struggle of the week: My maintenance range is pretty big, so mid way through it is heavier than my goal. I would like to get to a slightly smaller maintenance range that's about two pounds lower than where I'm maintaining right now. I will get there, but it is a bit of a struggle.
