    MFP Starting Weight: 251.3 lbs on Nov 22, 2020
    December Starting Weight: 245 lbs
    December goal: To be at or below 232 lbs

    Week 1 - did really well this week, tracked all my food and got activity every day. Averaged 13k steps/day and purposefully walked 18.85 miles for exercise over this week.
    12/1 - 245.0 lbs
    12/2 - 243.8 lbs
    12/3 - 243.6 lbs
    12/4 - 242.4 lbs
    12/5 - 242.0 lbs
    12/6 - 241.0 lbs
    12/7 - 241.4 lbs

    Week 2
    12/8 - 241.4 lbs - a little frustrated by my mini-plateau I've hit, but am keeping up with maintaining my desired calorie deficit, and will add drinking more water and getting some extra sleep tonight, as I've not been getting enough!
    12/9 - 239.8 - woohoo! exited to have broken through my mini-plateau, and to be out of the 240s!
    12/10 - 239.4 - didn't get specific exercise in yesterday, but did hit 13k steps.
    12/11 - 239.4 - yesterday was on track. Guessing the new fiber supplement I started taking is causing some water retention.
    12/12 - 239.2
    12/13 - 239.9 - no reason for an increase, I've been on track with eating & exercising. Will drink extra water today...
    12/14 - 238.9 - going back in the right direction

    Week 3
    12/15 - 238.1 - woohoo!
    12/16 - 240.0 - I ate poorly yesterday, but I should've still had a small calorie deficit. I certainly didn't eat enough to gain 2 lbs!! I'm assuming this is all temporary and should drop off soon. Will up my water & eat light today.
    12/17 - 237.8
    12/18 - 238.2- ate too much yesterday. will do better today!
    12/19 - 238.8 - no idea why it went up again. it's getting a little frustrating.
    12/20 - 235.6 - yay! I feel this drop was overdue
    12/21 - 235.5 - soooo close to hitting a 10# loss in December. 3.5# to lose in 10 days to hit my goal of 232 for the month.

    Week 4
    12/22 - 234.7 - yay! steady progress. I had Starbucks and a Whopper Jr. yesterday but still met my deficit goal.

    December weight change to date:(10.3) lbs

    MFP Starting Weight:235
    December starting weight:207.2
    December Goal Weight: 202.2
    December total weight loss:

    Week 1
    12/1 – 207.6 Not a good start!
    12/2 - 206.8 That’s what I like to see!
    12/3 – 206.2 Better!
    12/4 – 203.6 I shed a lot of fluid last night. I’ll see my true weight when rehydrated.
    12/5 – 203.8 Rehydrated and happy with the number I’m seeing.
    12/6 – 203.4 Happy with the continued progress. Trying to watch the snacks!
    12/7 – 202.6 Light meals, rationed the crackers in my soup and didn’t die without half a pack in there. It paid off.
    Week 2
    12/8 – 203.4 A bit up due to a very very late dinner. I should have eaten slower and had a little less (a little earlier) but the situation was a little out of my control. Today I will strive to do better as I will have a little more privacy at home today.
    12/9 – 204.0 Donuts brought over by a friend. My trigger food!
    12/10 -204.2 Gotta stop this runaway train!
    12/11 – 204.2
    12/12 – 204.2 Okay, let’s get rolling!
    12/13 – 203.2 Worked hard at a lower calorie day with fewer carbs. I just wish I’d had a bit more movement.
    12/14 – 203.4 I confess to the Christmas treats.
    Week 3
    12/15 – 205.0 Hanging out with friends is bad for me until I have more self-control!
    12/16 – 205.0 I’m going to try to make a difference today in a bigger way. The math is simple. When I have a bad day, I’ve got to subtract with a good day.
    12/17 – 205.2 I did not do the math.
    12/18 – 205.0 Traveled today. A very long day. We’ll see how the scales judge in the morning.
    12/19 – 205.4 I honestly thought this would be worse. I’ll say what the next few days hold. Sometimes it takes a couple of days to show up on the scale.
    12/20 – 206.0 It’s catching up to me. No movement yesterday either, just lots of wrapping!
    12/21 – 206.0 Some pretty good activity yesterday in the form of housekeeping but today Amazon is back on the deliveries so there will be lots of wrapping. Tomorrow is baking day and fudge making for Christmas with my daughter. Wish me luck!
    Week 4
    12/22 – 204.8 Trying to keep it reasonable. Dropped a little overnight in anticipation for the cookie and fudge making today. I see the scale going up tomorrow.

    Hi. I am Dawn. 60, 5'2"
    MFP Starting Weight: 191
    November ending weight: 139.0

    December goal: To get and stay firmly into the 130s.


    Week 1
    12/01 - 139.5 - Major calorie burn.
    12/02 - 138.2 - Ice skated yesterday which burns a ton of calories.
    12/03 - 137.0 - Calorie burn from 2 days ago caught up : - )
    12/04 - 137.1 - Hoping to keep this up and get my body to a new set point.
    12/05 - 138.3 - No reason for a gain, well within my numbers.
    12/06 - 139.2 - Ouch. I will get on top of that.
    12/07 - 139.9 - Hoping for a woosh, I have been on track

    Week 2
    12/08 - 139.5 - Keeping it in the 130s at least. I will feel more confident about that when I hit 135
    12/09 - 138.5 - That's better. Working at it.
    12/10 - 137.4 - Nice to see this number
    12/11 - 136.9 - Sometimes I am "good" and lose nothing or even gain. I haven't been "bad" but surprised at this number. I will take it of course.
    12/12 - 136.3 - Wow. This motivates me to keep working hard at weight loss.
    12/13 - 138.1 - Had a cheat meal. Back on the horse.
    12/14 - 137.4 - Better.

    Week 3
    12/15 - 136.9 - Happy to see this number again.
    12/16 - 137.5 - Working hard to be staying in the 130s this month
    12/17 - 136.9 - I ate more than usual yesterday, I was very hungry. I guess that I needed it.
    12/18 - 137.0 - Sticking with the plan
    12/19 - 135.9 - New low for me. Sometimes I touch a new weight and it takes me quite a while to get back to it, but I am getting used to that. Still very happy to see this number.
    12/20 - 136.2 - Went off a bit yesterday, that could come back to bite me. I will be extra diligent today.
    12/21 - 137.2 - This is Saturday still catching up to me. I am working on it.

    Week 4
    12/22 - 137.1 - I was expecting/hoping to be a little less this morning, but all good.
    12/23 - 136.9 - Lots of activity yesterday.

    @HealthyTrent

    Curious as to what your deficit goal is.
    I aim to always have Green showing on the tracker. Only once in 2 years was it in the red, and that was a Ribs feast.
    I don't really lose weight unless my deficit (in the Green) is above 500

    Kind of jealous that you are going to lose 10 pounds in a month when I average out 1 pound per month.
    Good job! And yes, we have to have treats every so often, we just work out more on those days.

    Hi, I'm back again, hoping to do better this month. I know for sure that regardless of if I meet my goal for the month or not, this challenge helps me, I have been a member of MFP since I turned 60, I am now 69. Until this challenge which I started in October, I haven't really participated or posted much, in fact I only put my actual picture here in Oct. after being a member for 9 years. Even though I still fall back on bad habits and thoughts of "I can't do this, It's too much effort, etc. etc." This forum seems to be sneaking into my doubts with little thoughts of "maybe I can do it, it's not that much effort, etc. etc." I'm still staying in the back ground a bit but I now have a record of the last 3 months and know that I'm further ahead than I would have been without it.


    MFP Starting Weight: 273lbs. approx.
    December starting weight:243lbs.
    December total weight loss:
    December goals: track, track, track and lose 5lbs.


    Week 1
    12/2: 243lbs.

    Week 2
    12/9: 243 lbs.

    Week 3
    12/16: 242lbs.

    Week 4
    12/23: 240.25 Not doing well tracking, but this little loss will keep me watchful and hopeful
