    Hi All, I am a busy mother of five slowly working my way to my goal weight. During September I entered my "Normal" BMI category and am now about 10 pounds from my ultimate goal. This will be my 3rd month in this challenge. I had never weighed myself daily before this challenge, and I am finding it to be so helpful and informative to weigh and check in daily.

    My goal for November is to NOT GET DERAILED BY THANKSGIVING. 🦃 🥧 😊 Let me tell you, I can really get derailed by a holiday. I may or may not log on Thanksgiving or the day after, and that's OK. But my Thanksgiving goal is to log daily from Saturday the 25th through the end of the month.

    Starting weight September 1: 141.0 lbs

    Starting weight November 1: 132.8 lbs

    Goal for November: 130.4 lbs Considering Thanksgiving, I'm setting my goal a tad on the conservative side.

    November 1: 132.8 I logged 🍁
    November 2: 132.8 I logged 🍁
    November 3: 131.4 I logged 🍁 Very happy with today's weight. Over the past week there have been several days that I ate at maintenance, and a couple days I ate well over maintenance. It was hard to tell if I was needlessly eating more, or if I really needed the additional calories. I've already got my activity level set to almost the highest one, and I haven't even gone running or done any exercise for over a week. I guess I walk constantly around the house, dealing with the children and doing housework, always on my feet, and I frequently have to do up and down the stairs to deal with something or put something away, so maybe that burns a lot sometimes. For a while there I thought I was "failing" because I could not hit my calorie goal.
    November 4: 131.0 I logged 🍁
    November 5: 130.8
    November 6: 132.2 I logged 🍁
    November 7: 131.8 I logged 🍁
    November 8: 131.4 I logged 🍁
    November 9: 131.2
    November 10: 131.2 I logged 🍁 Had a really bad day yesterday. Ended up overeating and eating too much chocolate. Hopefully it won't cause my weight to spike up. Today is a new day.
    November 11: 131.0 I logged 🍁
    November 12: 131.2 I logged 🍁 OK, time to break through this number, lol.
    November 13: 130.6 I logged 🍁
    November 14: 130.2
    November 15: 131.6 I logged 🍁
    November 16: 131.2 I logged 🍁 There's that familiar number again, lol. Time break through it again, especially these days before Thanksgiving. By the way, for the first time we have a pasture raised grassfed turkey this year for Thanksgiving. I'm looking forward to it.
    November 17: 130.2 I logged 🍁 Yessss!! Happy dance.
    November 18: 129.4 My scale is doing funny things. I'm not sure how accurate it is. At first it said 131.8 which is possible but unlikely (if the other readings this month were correct). So I got on again and it said 129.4 twice, so I'll go with that. But then I got on again about 30 minutes later and it said 127.0. That's highly unlikely also. Wondering if my scale is just not very good anymore.

    November 19: 128.2 ??? Again, I have a hard time believing this is correct. I might fiddle around with my scale, look into calibration like ManifestingToday suggested, or replace the batteries. First it said 126.6! No way. Then it said 127.0. Then it said 128.2 three times. My guess would be that 130-131 is more accurate. But I don't know. Another note-- yesterday was full of surprises. The day did NOT go as planned. Calorie counting and all cares for weight loss ended up out the window. Ended up going to a restaurant and just eating a lot. So I expected to see a weight gain, if not from extra calories then at least water retention. I'm wondering if I did have a gain but my scale is off and not reflecting it. Or I could actually have had a loss like it says. 🤷‍♀️ Well, I will just keep on with the usual logging, stick to my plans, and hopefully figure out what's up with my scale.

    November 20: 131.6 I logged 🍁 I am not super happy with my scale right now. Yesterday after I posted here, I turned it over and did not find any recalibration ability, but there is a button to change to kg. So I pushed it a couple times and set it back on pounds. Put it back down again, hopped back on and it said 131.4 I think. I think today's reading is probably pretty accurate..... It's a little disappointing to figure out that the scale has a 5-pound inaccuracy window. How am I supposed to know what's going on? I'll just keep logging and trying, and I'll keep getting on the thing every day and try not to worry too much about it. Let me know if any of you have any thoughts or advice on this.

    November 21: 129.6 I logged 🍁 Stepped on the scale multiple times again and this is what I kept getting, so I'll go with it.
    November 22: 128.8 I logged 🍁
    November 23: 127.8 Happy Thanksgiving! Here are my goals from now to the end of the month: 1) Enjoy Thanksgiving today and don't worry about calories. No logging. 2) Don't worry about calories tomorrow either. Logging optional. 3) From Saturday through Nov. 30, my goal is to log daily and check in here daily. 4) If my calories are over for a while, to get back to my calorie goal by Nov. 30.

    November 24: 129.6
    November 25: 130.6 I logged 🍁 I am filled with a lot of yummy food. I'm stuffed like a turkey! Today my goal is to log.
    November 26: 128.8 I logged 🍁 Yesterday I logged and was actually kinda close to my calorie goal 👍

    Last week my calories intake was mostly in the negative side. My days were quite unusual and contributed to that. However, the weight result was great, and I'm very happy! 🎉

    This week I'll try to do better in the calories total.

    Stress and my undiagnosed ADD has gotten the best of me these last couple of weeks. I'm sorry I have not been very supportive and disappeared again. I found out that the job offer from the State did not have a start date and with my seasonal job ending next month, I needed to find something that I could count on, so I took the next job offered to me. I start today, so I am trying to create some new routines with this new start!

    @BittersweetVita It is always wonderful to have you here when you can be. Wishing you the very best in your new job!

    11/26-DNW-(Trend Weight DNW)- Our Thanksgiving Dinner was wonderful yesterday. Too much food! Today I travel to the movie theater with my grandson (5 yrs old), daughter, daughter-in-law and other (4 yr old) grandson. I just learned there is a theater about 60 miles from my house each way so off to see Trolls it is! I promised the 5 yr old I would take him to the movies and get popcorn if he would stop pooping his pants. I promised him during the summer and it’s been weeks now that he has stayed clean. A promise is a promise so that older overweight lady with the fake smile plastered on her face in the theater today will be me. I do love the movies and want to teach that love to my grandchildren. I’m just more of a Disney or Pixar fan. I also like Illumination Studios pretty well too. The good thing about Trolls: It is guaranteed to always have good music in it.

    11/27-180.4-(Trend Weight 182.4)- I did very well at the movies. No popcorn or soda. And no dinner out afterwards. I am thankful the weight is not up too high from our Thanksgiving feast. Now, to get back into the business of the 170’s.

    Hey friends! My name is B - I live with my husband and two kids and work in communitymental health. I've never not struggled with my weight, so I'm focusing on long term habits so I can live a longer and more active life with my family.

    Monthly Habits:
    Log all my food 🥙
    Work out 3x/week 🏃‍♀️
    8 glasses of water💧
    Self Care Activity 🧶

    Sept weightloss: 6.7 lbs
    Oct weightloss: 3.1 lbs

    🍁🍂Nov Monthly goal: lose 2 pounds

    1: 🥙💧
    2: 🥙🧶💧 I didn't get much sleep this night so I opted out of a work out and instead of reading a book and heading to bed early. Meal prepped a delish chicken salad and turning in for the night 💤
    3: 🥙 🧶my best friend came into town and we had martinis and went to a comedy show. Over in calories but walked the city and overall a great day ❤️
    4: 🥙🧶💧
    5: 🥙🧶🏃‍♀️ Had the best weekend and finished it up with a long walk through the park with one of my kiddos.
    6: 🥙🧶🏃‍♀️💧
    7: 🥙💧
    8:🥙💧🧶 Work has been long the last few days but I finished my last presentation this morning and am ready to relax tonight
    9: 🥙💧
    10: 🥙
    11: 🥙🏃‍♀️
    12: 🥙🏃‍♀️💧this was a whirlwind weekend - my daughter was in the community theater production of "Mean Girls" and at this point I've seen the show so many times I could be an understudy...I knew the weekend would be rough and planned in a few workouts and tracked as I went. Ready for a few months without baseball practices and musical rehearsals as we head into the holidays 🎀
    13: 🥙💧My Monday was 12 years long lol. But I tracked and didn't fall off track. Making a drink and catching up on some reality TV now🍸
    14:🥙💧🧶
    15: 🥙💧🧶
    16: 🥙🧶
    17: 🥙💧 I've never been so excited for a weekend to come! Happy Friday friends ❤️
    18: 🥙💧🧶
    19: 🥙🧶💧
    20:🥙💧🧶 Kind of in a funk today. I'm realizing it's been about a week since I worked out and think that's probably the culprit. Making plans to get in a walk in the park tomorrow ❤️
    21: 🥙💧🧶 A rainy start to the Thanksgiving holiday so we stayed in and made paper snowflakes ❄️
    22:🥙💧🧶 still no work out but looking forward to a slow morning of watching the parade on TV and bringing a dessert to Thanksgiving.
    23: 🥙💧🧶🏃‍♀️ My calories are a best guess but tracked. I took a walk through the park mid-baking and played cards with family and friends. I hope everyone spent the day with people they love ❤️

    I'm creeping up the scale in the wrong direction. We have been too creative with Thanksgiving leftovers. Turkey pot pie, turkey tetrazzini, and turkey sandwiches with cranberry sauce have sabotaged my diet. I am weak and can't resist the temptation of having so many leftovers. Lucky for me I have consumed most of the turkey. Hopefully, there is enough of November left to make a comeback, (2 Days) Ha!

    Week 1 (1-7): 2.0 Loss
    Week 2 (8-14): 0.0 loss/gain
    Week 3: (15-22): 0.4 gain
    Nov 23: 186.8
    Nov 24: 187.2
    Nov 25: 187.0

    Nov 27: 187.6
