This morning's scale stats:

My scale still says "obesity" range fat percentage and metabolic age 68 (I'm actually 65) but I won't be discouraged - ONWARD!5

The rain that was predicted for Wednesday came. But the chaos I feared was not present before the evening so I got to and from work okay. But my kids did not get to the activities.
Then we got some snow on Thursday. So now I am living in a glittering white landscape. My kids had some kind of fever this weekend. I have exercised some but eaten alot.
The dog likes the snow. The cat never did.
Small weight loss.

11/20-180.8-(Trend Weight: 182.5)- I had a really good week last week until the multiple travel days which sort of derailed me. But I am still ahead of the game this week and back on track now that I am home. I actually touched 179 twice last week so I’m hopeful. Now, to keep things going good until Turkey Day. I’ll splurge then, but I will try to limit it to just that day. My dinner will be on Saturday the 25th. I’m not sure of our exact plans for the actual holiday on Thursday yet.
11/27-180.4-(Trend Weight: 182.4)- I puffed up for Thanksgiving but I did very well at the travel and movies yesterday with DGSs. 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. It will be difficult considering all the desserts that are still left in the downstairs fridge. I did good yesterday and ate none. But then again, I was gone most of the day. Let’s hope today is a good day. Clearly I won’t meet my goal this month, but I am still on track for the overall challenge goal of 12 pounds. But there is that basement fridge full of all things sugar and flour. And there’s the month of December with all it’s baking and festivities. This is not going to be easy……

It’s actually been a little tough maintaining my current weight with the holidays and all of the travel over the last two months. After this weekend, I won’t have any travel plans until the new year. I’m excited about that. I’m looking forward to getting closer to my goal.
