    Starting weight 2019 181.1
    Starting weight 2020 175.6
    Start weight this month 175.6
    Goal weight this month 171.0
    Target goal weight 154

    Hi everyone, after four weeks of travel, holidays, family, and friends I am back with a little extra baggage. My goal of maintaining during this time was...well, I gained almost 8lb. So happy to be reunited with my scale, my kitchen, my pilates studio, and the other environmental things that help with good habits. Happy new year, and look forward to celebrating your successes here in 2020!

    13 Jan: 175.6
    14 Jan: 174.9
    15 Jan: 174.2

    December was not my best month. I finally had reached maintenance the first couple of weeks of the month and then lost it after that. I am up about 5 pounds from where I want to be. Hoping a lot of this is water weight and will drop fairly quickly.


    Jan 1: 143.1
    Jan 2: 143.7 there is the rest of my alcohol weight from New Year's Eve.
    Jan 3: 143.7
    Jan 4: 143.1
    Jan 5: 143.1
    Jan 6: 143.1 No alcohol yesterday and back on track today. Hoping some of this is water weight and I will lose quickly!
    Jan 7: 144.9 way to much alcohol unexpectedly last night.
    Jan 8: 144.3
    Jan 9: 143.1 I think my scale is confused. It could not really settle on a number so I went with the highest
    Jan 10: 143.0
    Jan 11: 139.8
    Jan 12: 139.8
    Jan 13: 140.7 I am ok with this as a Monday weigh-in. 3 more pounds down and I will be back in maintenance weight.
    Jan 14: 142.0 Ate 2 pieces of chocolate before bed and had 2 beers. Uuugghh, my will power sucks these days!
    Jan 15: 140.7 back down and hoping to be a little lower tomorrow. Plenty of water today

    Female; Age 57; 5'6"; Scottsdale, AZ

    Original starting weight May 2017:- 179.5 pounds
    January 2020 starting weight: 140.6
    December 2019 low was 134.7
    Goal weight this month January 2020: 132.5 lbs I know this is a really high goal, but I think some of this is water weight and will come off quickly. 😁
    Target goal weight:- 128.5 lbs

    Jan 5:
    Jan 6: 140.6 🥵 I cannot believe I gained 6 pounds in less than 3 weeks. Hopefully much is water weight that I will shed quickly, though I did eat A LOT!
    Jan 7: 139.4 😉 heading the right direction
    Jan 8: 138.7 🙂 let's keep going!
    Jan 9: 138.3 😀 I am sure this is mostly water and food in my system, but I will take it!
    Jan 10: 138.6 🤫 Did not feel well and slept very poorly. Going out to dinner tonight, will eat around maintenance today, so expecting a little more jump in weight tomorrow.
    Jan 11: 140.0 😡 Well, had a huge meal with a friend I hadn't seen in a while. And a glass of wine and dessert! Oh well, moving on!
    Jan 12: 139.4 🤨 Still annoyed with my lack of willpower Friday night. But I am back on track.
    Jan 13: 138.8 😉 Almost back to my Friday weight.
    Jan 14: 137.9 😁 Yay! New low for the month!
    Jan 15: 137.2 😊😊 Today is going to be a LONG day. Teaching in the morning to my students, doing a professional development class for teachers, then tutoring, then back to school for parent teacher night. At least I will be too busy to think about food.

    Jan 15: 168.2 And here it goes again - ups and downs. So frustrating. Unfortunately it's the 167 mark that I give up, so just going to have to keep up with the 2 threads I post on and 'keep on keeping on'.

  • I'm trying this again. I did it for several months, then got lazy. With the laziness came weight gain, so I'm back where I started.

    CW - 216.4
    January GW - 210
    Ultimate GW - 150

    I need friends! Feel free to add me!


    Jan 2020:- SW: 216.4



    Jan 1: 216.4 - Day one hasn't gone quite to plan, but I've really only had a big lunch that probably accounted for a day's worth of eating 😖, and I don't plan on eating anything else (still full). I have tomorrow logged and ready, and will use the treadmill tomorrow as well. Here I go!

    Jan 2: 215.4 (- 1.0) - Wahoo! Yesterday didn't hurt me too bad!

    Jan 3: 215.0 (-0.4, -1.4lb total) - A loss is a loss no matter how small. Today is going to be hard for me, I'm home all day which means I have free reign and can do what I want (vs where I pack my breakfast and lunch / snack for work and don't have to worry about anything till dinner). Time to find the willpower and just stick to what I'd eat at work.

    Jan 4: 213.6 (-1.4, -2.8lb total) - Wasn't really expecting that! Must be the last is the water weight from TOM ending. I'll take it though!

    Jan 5: 213.0 (-0.6, -3.4lbs total) - Still going down. Wasn't expecting it. We had sandwiches (capriottis) for dinner and I ate a whole medium sandwich. Luckily it made me so full that I didn't eat anything after 645 last night. I've found that if I eat a large lunch, and then a smaller dinner, I lose better that way. So as long as my dinner isn't too heavy and I don't snack afterwards (I may have a piece or 2 of the left over Christmas chocolate (mmm lindor truffles and godiva)) I'm usually okay the next morning. I guess I'm IF-ing in a sense cause I normally don't eat anything until I take my lunch at work (1pm ish). But it's working so far so I'm gonna stick with it! I stopped drinking coffee like 3 weeks ago, but I'm tempted to start drinking it again using sugar free creamer, or even a scoop or so of vanilla protein powder. I havent made up my mind on that one yet though.

    Jan 6: 213.6 (+0.6, -2.8lb total) - Too much snacking last night. Will be better today! My plan is to start using the treadmill today, I'm going to make myself do it.

    Jan 7: 215.0 (+1.4, -1.4lb total) - Now here, I don't know what happened. I was within my calories, I drank all my water and I used the treadmill. Oh well. Gotta keep going.

    Jan 8: 214.4 (-0.6, -2.0lbs total) - Down a little today so that's better. Stayed within my calories goal today too!

    Jan 9: 214.0 (-0.4, 2.4lbs total) finally moving back down! Tonight will be treadmill night. Im thinking of possibly starting the C25K program, but I don't know how that will go on a treadmil and I don't have the confidence to go running outside. So we will see. If not I'll just stick with walking and increase my pace.

    Jan 10: 214.0 ( no change) - This is a good thing considering we ate out last night. I'm hoping for a drop tomorrow though. We will see how this weekend goes. My in laws anniversary is this weekend, so I know we will be eating out, I just don't know where. Just gotta keep going!

    Jan 11: 212.4 (-1.6, 4lbs total) FINALLY‼️ Seeing that drop that I've been patiently waiting for. 😁Gotta keep it going! Today is going to be a little rough. We're eating out for my in laws anniversary tonight and as of right now I have no clue where we are going. Hopefully we will get all this straightened out soon so I can figure out what I'm going to eat. Other than that its going to be a lazy day. Not much going on. Might go watch out NHL team practice today, the kids love that and if the players are feeling up to it they will sign autographs for the kids.

    Jan 12: 214.0 (+1.6, 2.4lbs total) Knew this was going to happen. Just gonna chug water today and hope that helps flush everything out. Hopefully will be back down soon.

    Jan 13: 215.8 (+1.8, .06lbs total) Well yesterday was a bust. Let's just say pizza, cake and McDonald's was involved and totally unplanned. Ugh. Best I can do is just to keep going. I know what I've put back on is more water than anything (some is actual weight gain too, I know). But I'm just gonna keep on keeping on.

    Jan 14: 214.4 (-1.4, 2lbs total) I need to get my butt into gear. The month is half over and I've accomplished basically nothing so far. Time to get my crap together and go!

    Jan 15: 214.4 (no change) Better than gaining!

    Canadian living in Denmark. Did this for a month in August and then lost motivation when I hit a plateau and gained everything back and more since November. I'm struggling beyond belief to lost my last pregnancy weight from 2 years ago. I was 46 so I definitely see the difference in the ability to lose weight between this pregnancy and my earlier one in my 30's. I have about 25 lbs to go to pre-pregnancy weight.

    Female; Age 48; 5'3"

    Original starting weight Dec 2017:-180 pounds
    January 2020 starting weight:- 163
    Goal weight this month January 2020:- 160 lbs
    Target goal weight:- 120lbs

    Jan 10: 163
    Jan 11: 161.6 - probably due to TOM yesterday. I can't seem to stop binging at night.
    Jan 12: 159.9 - water weight I guess. I ate a lot so I don't think it reflects any weight loss.
    Jan 13 - no weigh in
    Jan 14. 161.0 - that's more realistic
    Jan 15: 161.6 - Here we go again. I hate this
    Jan 16: 160.8 - Better :)

    Journey so far:
    Jan 2015: I joined MFP at 227 lbs and gradually reduced
    Oct 2016: finally hit my target of 155
    Dec 2018: Had gradually wavered up again to 170s
    Jan 2019: still wavering round 170
    July 2019: 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)

    Dec: + 4.4 (Christmas indulgences)

    OSW: 227 (Mar 2014)
    CSW: 170.1 (1 Aug 2019)
    LW: 147.8 (Nov 2019)
    JAN SW: 151.4
    GW: Under 150

    Wed 01 Jan: 151.4
    Thu 02 Jan: 151.6 Not the best start. We got Series 8 of GoTs for Christmas and DH opened a box of liquorice allsorts as we were watching the first episode last night. I was under goal, but the sugar has given me a touch of bloat this morning.
    Fri 03 Jan: 151.8
    Sat 04 Jan: 151.4 Phew! Glad it’s started to shift again.
    Sun 05 Jan: 151.2
    Mon 06 Jan: 151.2
    Tue 07 Jan: 151.1
    Wed 08 Jan: 150.9
    Thu 09 Jan: 150.2 😍 not really expecting this drop as we were entertaining yesterday, and I did indulge somewhat.
    Fri 10 Jan: 150.2 😄 Happy that it’s sticking! 😂
    Sat 11 Jan: 149.9 😄
    Sun 12 Jan: 149.6 😄
    Mon 13 Jan: 149.4 😍 3 days under 150, and not yet half way through the month. Staying on track, upping the intensity of my workouts gradually, and reigning in on the snacks seems to be doing the business. Daily monitoring is underlining the need for being mindful.
    Tue 14 Jan: 149.6 😁 Note to self: Avoid salty snacks at bedtime! DOH!!!!
    Wed 15 Jan: 150.1 😏 Cause and effect! Water retention.
    Thu 16 Jan: 149.2 😍 Better!

    Start weight this month 264.4
    Goal weight this month 256
    Target goal weight 165lbs possibly less undecided yet!

    Going a little easier on my goal this month as I didn't make goal again last month. Missed by 0.4lbs!

    Sept loss 14.9lbs
    October loss 12.1lbs
    November loss 11.6lbs
    December loss 10.2lbs

    1 January 264.7! Great I start the new year up by 0.3lbs! Probably last night’s alcohol so back on the water today 😊

    2 January 264.5 down a little but weighed late in the day so hoping it’s not accurate! Walked miles today so here’s hoping for a little more off tomorrow!

    3 January 264.4 down a little but today is my birthday so I’ve had a glass of Baileys tonight. Fingers crossed it doesn’t do too much damage tomorrow!

    4 January 264.4 again! Aaarrrggghhh! Sick of this number! Know full well I slightly overdid it yesterday but also didn’t drink enough water but just a little drop would be encouraging at this point! Extra exercise the last couple of weeks as well and still not a great result! Frustrating but I’m going to drink more and keep plugging away at it! I will have a summer body for the summer dagnamit!

    5 January 263.7 finally a little loss at last! All that walking and all the water drunk did help. Guess I’ll keep going today then!

    6 January - didn't weigh today, busy day.

    7 January 264.4! Not impressed but TOM on the way and this always happens. Drinking loads to try to help. Not helping that I'm back at work today and having to sit in front of the computer all day isn't helping with my step count! Treadmill for hours later it is then. Humph at this. Hate fluctuations I can't help!

    8 January 263.3! Yay a loss at last! A new low for me as well. Definitely going to keep on with the water and have chosen a new supper meal to stop me overdoing the butter on my toast. I'm doing this!!!

    9 January 263.3 Now I don’t like this number either! Gah! Can’t really expect a daily loss but I always hope! At least it wasn’t a gain so I’ll take that as a win! 😊

    10 January no weigh in

    11 January 262.9 pleased with this. Another new low. I know it’s getting harder now but I think the no toast and butter change is helping. 😀

    12 January 261.9 so pleased with this. Feels like progress and the first real progress of this month. Hope it continues or I’m not going to make my goal this month either! Keep drinking the water! 💦

    13 January 262! Ah well, not going to worry about this one, too small an increase to matter! Had expected more of an increase as I wasn't well yesterday and didn't move about much at all. So I guess I'll take that happily! Keep drinking the water!

    14 January 261.9 It seems similar numbers are here to haunt me, but it's a tiny loss so I'll take it!

    15 January 261.6, again a little loss but still a loss! Decided to be tougher with myself about my ambiguous calories. I've got a long way to go so i want to do it a little more quickly!

    16 January 260.7 Pleased with this! Hoping 4.7lbs is doable by the end of the month now! I'd really like to hit my goal just once on one of these threads! I suppose I could pick a less aggressive goal but I need to be aiming high to help motivate me!

    Starting weight: 163.4 lb
    Start weight this month: 147.8
    Goal weight this month: 140
    Target goal weight: 128

    August: lost 1.2 lb
    September: lost 4.2 lb
    October: lost 3.7 lb
    November: lost 3.9 lb
    December: lost 4.3 lb (but ended high due to New Year’s)

    (I use Happy Scale, so the losses above are determined by moving average. I will post my actual daily weight below.)

    01 Jan: 147.8 (my lowest in Dec was 144.6) Definitely indulged for a couple of days at the beach for New Year’s with family. I expect this to go down quickly after a few days back to my normal routine....hopefully, anyways!
    02 Jan: 148.8 I ate within my deficit calories yesterday, so this increase is either from DOMS (I’m still extremely sore from a hard workout on Tuesday), or it’s PMS a lil early? Oh well, patience!
    03 Jan: 148
    04 Jan: 146.8
    05 Jan: 145.8
    06 Jan: 146.8 —had buttered popcorn at the movies yesterday, ie, sodium-induced water weight!
    07 Jan: 146.8 —staying at a calorie deficit, but more salt plus PMS still, so I’m not letting go of the water! Patience...
    08 Jan: 147.4 Seriously! Admittedly, more salt again.
    09 Jan: 147 TOM today, finally!! Hopefully I can lose some of this now. I’ve been within my calorie goal, so something’s gotta give soon! (It usually takes 5 more days after TOM starts-boo)
    10 Jan: 146.4
    11 Jan: 146.2 Surprised, since I had Domino’s pizza last night—high sodium
    12 Jan: 146.8 Tearin’ it up in Jan! Lol
    13 Jan: 146.8 Uuuugggghhhhhhh!!!! I mean, patience...!?! Within my goal calories...
    14 Jan: 145.2 There’s some of it gone after TOM (Yep, takes 5 days after I start!). I’m still not down to my lowest in Dec, but hopefully soon.
    15 Jan: 146.2 Had sushi last night, so yeah, sodium!
    16 Jan: 144.6 Okay, finally back to my previous low from Dec. Now to actually lose some!

    Starting weight this month: 140.2
    Goal weight this month: 134
    Target goal weight: I’m not sure yet, shooting for 130 first.

    August: lost 5.5 pounds
    September: lost 5 pounds
    October: lost 10 pounds
    November: lost 5 pounds
    December: lost 5.6 pounds

    This month will be way different then usual. Doing the Daniel Fast starting Jan 5th for 21 days, for spiritual reasons. So my workouts will probably suffer a little and I will probably lose weight fast in those 21 days.

    Jan 10: 133.4 🤯 I know this is just a lot of water weight and will even out over the next couple weeks, so I’m not going to change my goal.

    Jan 13: 207
    Jan 14: 206 (new low! Haven't seen this in a couple of months, so I'm pretty psyched. And the last couple of days have been HARD....eating the same amount, but much hungrier than usual).
    Jan 15: 208.8 (they catered lunch at work and, already off the wagon, I had fast food for dinner. Bad me! That said, I only went over by about half a pound worth of calories, so I expect this to come off in a few days).

    December was not my best month. I finally had reached maintenance the first couple of weeks of the month and then lost it after that. I am up about 5 pounds from where I want to be. Hoping a lot of this is water weight and will drop fairly quickly.


    Jan 1: 143.1
    Jan 2: 143.7 there is the rest of my alcohol weight from New Year's Eve.
    Jan 3: 143.7
    Jan 4: 143.1
    Jan 5: 143.1
    Jan 6: 143.1 No alcohol yesterday and back on track today. Hoping some of this is water weight and I will lose quickly!
    Jan 7: 144.9 way to much alcohol unexpectedly last night.
    Jan 8: 144.3
    Jan 9: 143.1 I think my scale is confused. It could not really settle on a number so I went with the highest
    Jan 10: 143.0
    Jan 11: 139.8
    Jan 12: 139.8
    Jan 13: 140.7 I am ok with this as a Monday weigh-in. 3 more pounds down and I will be back in maintenance weight.
    Jan 14: 142.0 Ate 2 pieces of chocolate before bed and had 2 beers. Uuugghh, my will power sucks these days!
    Jan 15: 140.7 back down and hoping to be a little lower tomorrow. Plenty of water today
