I was at my highest weight in 2015 at almost 300lbs. In 2019 I had wls and in 2021 I was at my lowest I've been In a long time at 160lbs! Since then I've climbed back up...I do NOT want to hit that 200lb mark again! It's 2024, time to get back to it! (Plus I'm going on my first cruise in May...I need to feel good)

I lost 4lbs in November's challenge, and another 2lbs in December's... but I completely relaxed from around the 18th December.
Nearly 2lbs off! I have stopped over-eating but haven't been calorie-counting or anything yet. That starts from today! And I have completely cut out chocolate. I find it difficult to stop once I've started (and please don't give me advice on freezing a couple of squares or eating small amounts of very dark chocolate - cutting it completely is the only option for me!)
Best of luck to everyone for week 2 :-)4 -

Day 1 (1/4) - 308 (starting weight)
Day 5 (1/8) - 306.5 (official WI will be Thursday)
January Goal - 300
Overall Goal - 190ish (or a size 12, I'd be happy there)
I went to brunch on Saturday with some girlfriends & still managed to have a cocktail & stay pretty close to my calorie goals for the day. I'm pretty pumped about that. I got some amazing eggs benedict at brunch with crispy prosciutto & avocado. SO GOOD! I had them scramble the egg instead of poach because I can't stand a runny egg.
I also made a big batch of chili to eat on for the week. I think later this week I'll make some spaghetti squash "pasta" with italian turkey sausage, sun dried tomatoes, spinach, & ricotta. I don't really have a recipe, I just kind of throw things together. I've made something similar before and it was REALLY good.
Once I get paid this week I also think I'm going to order a stepper for the house. I hate going to the gym & need to start moving more. I've seen them all over Tiktok & found one on Amazon with really god reviews & a 330 pound weight limit.6 -

January 8: 260.2. Not sure how that happened, but it's very encouraging! I must have been retaining some water somewhere because I was eating at maintenance trying to heal from being sick--craving lots and lots of oranges. At my goal for my HealthyWage challenge so i need to keep it up for the official weigh in. I plan to buy myself some roller skates with the prize money. I used to love skating as a kid; you couldn't keep me off the skating rink or out of the swimming pool if there was one nearby. Weird how when we get older we forget about things that brought joy and excitement to our lives. I didn't make resolutions this year, but as I have entered my forties, i have decided to prioritize my own health, mental health, and happiness and to say no to things that don't further those things. And yes to roller skates See you next week--lots of love!

@Maz2024 - this is very wise. There's no reason to wait until next month or next week. It's best to get going RIGHT NOW. Keep this in mind going forward. If you have a bad day, don't quit, and don't feel discouraged. We all have bad days. Don't wallow. Just dust yourself off and get back after it. Don't wait until next week or even tomorrow, do it NOW. If we are to make any decisions, we have to make them now because now is the only moment we have. The past can inform us, but we can't change it. The future will unfold, but it's not here yet.
In addition to not waiting to get started or to get back on it, the other trick is to just STICK TO IT.
Thanks for reminding us!

Does anybody else have over 100lb weight loss goal?
Yep!!
I don't know exactly how much I want to lose, but I know it'll be pretty close, if not more than, 100 pounds. I'm currently 308 & want to get to a size 12 & maintainable weight for me. My PCP agreed I'll never be within my healthy weight range based on BMI charts; that is not maintainable for my frame. But I know the amount of weight I need to lose & can reasonably maintain is close to the 100 pound mark.5 -

And thank YOU also for the reminder. Beautifully said.There's no reason to wait until next month or next week. It's best to get going RIGHT NOW. Keep this in mind going forward.

Off to a good (and predictably more than normal weekly weight loss) start, with the holidays behind me, I am already feeling much better. All the best to you all as you embark on week two of your goals. And don't forget, slow and steady wins the race!

Goal for Week # 1 - focus on losing again after a long vacation and a month plus of eating holiday foods and desserts ✔️
Goal for week # 2 - plan healthy meals in advance for accurate logging of calories, introduce more vegetables, reduce sodium and get in lots of walking on non-rainy days.

I posted earlier this week that I had started off on the wrong foot; so, my number going up doesn't surprise me at all. That's ok. It's just a "whoops moment" and it's time to re-evaluate and try again!6 -
**Update**
Strong week with my goals! We are starting to get snow which is going to affect my exercise--I typically go for a jog 3-4 nights a week. My goal this week is to get this sorted and not loose out on movement.
