    @Cory17 - while some of your sickness weight loss may pop back on, it took you well beyond your goal for the month, so enjoy that! And don't get too upset when it bounces a little - just keep going. Yay!

    @MadisonMolly - Oh no, but at least you're still a little below where you started the month, and there's a week left.

    December 31:

    I did a lot of reading up on the newsfeed articles about how to enjoy the holiday without overindulging. I kept myself to just one cocktail at each party and before the main meal I filled my plate with salad and waited for 20 min before I went in for the heavy meals so that I would get full faster. I was hoping to just stay weight neutral but did not imagine I would lose anything over the holidays! Now that the hard part is over, I am confident I can stay the course with my weight loss journey.

    Barely a gain. Almost within margin of error. And still down from two weeks ago. This week will be better if you make it so.

    My name is Donna. I am 62 years old and I live in the Midwest of the US. I am 5’ 5” tall.

    Start Weight (from Nov 30, 2022 ): 196.2
    Goal Weight: 191.2 (5 pound loss)

    End of Challenge Weight: xxxxx
    Ultimate Goal Weight: 145-155 (I’ll know it when I get there!)



    Weight in blue makes me blue because it’s a gain. Weight in fuchsia pink makes me feel cheery because it’s a loss. Weight in black means no change.


    12/01-198.4-(Trend Weight: 197.8)-

    12/06-199.6-(Trend Weight: 197.9)-

    12/13-198.4-(Trend Weight: 198.0)-

    12/20-198.6-(Trend Weight: 198.2)- I could have done much better. All the traveling for medical and holiday shopping is really biting me in the butt. I’ve been pretty consistent in December but that is not really the goal. It is to lose weight and THAT, I am not doing. Humph….. Decembers are tough!

    12/27-200.8-(Trend Weight: 198.9)- Clearly I have had a food-filled week. I don’t plan on staying in the 2’s. Onederland is still back within reach and I plan on grabbing hold again. Time to pay the fiddler and get back to Serious!

    12/31-xxxxx-(Trend Weight: xxxxx)-


    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
    250’s; 240’s; 230’s; 220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180’s; 170's; 160's; 150's

    Total weight loss/gain to date this month: + 1.5 pounds

    I've gained about 4-5 pounds over the last 3 months between vacation/traveling/holidays/etc. But the main culprit has been not tracking everything I eat for at around half of that time. January is always a great motivator since it seems the whole world is trying to kick start their health journey, but I'm trying to get a jump on it these last few days of December.
