    December Loss:

    Weight lost this week: -4.4 lbs (truly)
    Current challenge loss: -4.4 lbs in 1 week (-4.4 lbs/week)
    Challenge Weight loss goal: -15 lbs in 9 weeks (-1.6 lbs/week)

    So, no stats for this week. Saturday is my weigh day, but my scale decided it couldn't make up its mind and fluctuated a LOT, giving me numbers in a range of 8 lbs; so no weight for this week. That's okay, I took a peek during the week and I think I gained ( :cry: ). Gives me something to think about since I did go calorie red several days (but not terrible) and exercised a lot more than the week before. I noticed that I exercised late in the day last week. So this week, I'll work harder on paying attention to my choices, and getting it DOWN; trying to exercise before I eat. Exercising early in the morning, while ideal, is not possible for me because of the quiet hour restrictions in our building. So I'll do what I can!

    Don't give up!

    P.S. I seriously think my scale has an attitude sometimes. The problem is really a combination of how it weighs using feet and the fact that there isn't a single hard, flat, even surface in our apartment. So I scooch it around to make sure it's really sure of itself. Most of the time it is satisfied with its answer, but some days it can vary a huge amount.

    @MrsHermit - congrats on the trend down! You are working hard and physical scale wrestling should not be another chore.
    As for the hard flat surface, may I suggest shower/bath tub? I think it’s a requirement for them to be leveled perfectly horizontal.
    Just make sure the scale stays dry and good luck with this adventure to better health!

    Another stressful week. Not sleeping very well and struggling to eat up to my BMR. [/size][/*][*]

    I'm sorry you're having such a stressful time. Hopefully this week will be better.
