    12/01: 207.6… Not a good start!

    12/06: 203.4 Lots of unpacking in my new home. Burning calories galore but also really watching the quantities of quick grab foods and limiting the snacks to force some progress. It’s working so far……

    12/13: 203.2 Up & Down all week. Ended slightly on the downside. For December, that is a win!

    12/20: 206.0 All sitting for online shopping, travel shopping and wrapping. I’ve got to get moving!

    Original MFP Starting Weight: 211
    November End (Dec Starting) Weight: 198
    December Goal Weight: 196
    Ultimate Goal Weight: 180

    November 30: 198
    Would really like to get exercise back into my routine, but struggling between a toddler, being lockdown, & returning to work

    December 7: 198
    The scale has been stubborn!

    December 14: 197.4
    Small goal; just trying to be realistic and not set myself up for disappointment or my dreaded bad head space

    December 21: 194.6
    I believe this is the swoosh I’ve been waiting for. With a week of virtual celebrations ahead (Christmas & 2 birthdays) I’m trying to be realistic, this may increase for the next weigh-in

    Don’t stop, We got this!💪💪🏽

    I liked someone’s challenge which was just not to gain over December. I think that’s a good goal for me right now.

    2kg down so far this month! 💪🏻 I was not expecting that, but I guess a Christmastime without parties, family or having friends round has left me a lot more control over what I eat than usual. I would normally eat to please others when they have worked hard to please me by preparing something special, but there have been no such opportunities this December.

    Also, my boyfriend bought me Just Dance so I’ve been getting some heart-healthy cardio in nearly every night since I opened it.

    Hopefully by next December I’ll be maintaining my goal weight and have a December filled with temptation and friends.

    2.4kg (5.3lb!) for December! I think knowing I was going to post here helped. Also, I’m just at a stage where I can notice even the smallest loss in my face and body, whereas when I’m moving from podgy to slightly less podgy, I don’t really notice.

    On the off chance you want to continue this challenge in the new year, I went ahead and made a new thread for January.

    See you there.

    Total loss for December: I must say, I was thinking I had made some progress to vanquish the extra pounds I've been putting on since October, but December had my number. I was at my highest weight ever since I got to goal in 2018. But I think I have a handle on it now.

    Happy New Year! 2021; please treat us well.

    The new thread link above is not working. Can you pull it up, copy it in your address bar and paste on this thread?
    Hopefully that will work. If not, give us an exact name for the link that we can search in the search bar including all characters. Thanks.

    This thread was combined into the other thread with the same name that @sassbag created. It seemed silly to have two of exactly the same challenge; I just didn't realize she had posted one when I did. She had missed a couple months, so I just stepped in during those months.
