    Hi All,
    I have been struggling sooo bad since the 1st of December. This past week has been brutal ! This past week has been my baking week for church refreshments & family chocolate cream pie ( twice ), I tried a new recipe mixing cool whip into it and the pie didn't set. It was chocolate soup, so I had to make it again....Oh, and whoopie pies. Ever since we were wee little ones, when our parents told use we could
    come out of our bedrooms, we got to open one present before breakfast. we would go directly to the tree and find the present left for each of us by Mrs. Claus. That present had whoopie pies in it. that's the only time of the year we got to eat Whoopi pies for breakfast. We are all in our 60s now and we still hold to that tradition ( diet or no diet ).

    Heaviest weight: 175.4 in early 2013.
    Original MFP starting weight (January 2018) - 168.2
    November 26 (Starting Weight): - 157.4 (10-day average 157.0)
    December goal - Get back into maintenance weight range.
    Ultimate goal - Range between 143 - 153

    I report scale weight and (ten day average weight), and I post on Saturdays.


    November 26: 157.4 (10-day average 157.0)
    December 2: 158.6 (10-day average 156.1)
    December 9: 155.0 (10-day average 156.1)
    December 16: 151.8 (10-day average 152.8)
    December 23: 155.2 (10-day average 153.2)
    December 30:
    December 31:


    Total loss for December: Up 0.4 pounds for the week. Down 3.8 for the month though, so that's good, especially for these darkest of days. One more week and we'll see how I did overall for the year.

    I will be sticking to it in 2024. Will you?

    Month 3 now of setting challenges for myself. November was not as successful as I’d liked but still successful. I credit this group for making me accountable.
    Great way to keep focus throughout the holidays.

    December 8:206 I’m confused by this but I’m not hopping on the scale for a recheck. 🌲
    December 15: 209 I think I may have eaten an extra cookie or two recently ☃️ I feel just as confused by this as last week seriously. Eyes on my goal.
    December 22: 207 forgot to weigh yesterday very busy time but I did today fingers crossed for my goal looks like I might make it but cookies and eggnog are still on my plate. 🍪🎅 Merry Christmas!
