Hey Gang - Merry Christmas Eve to those of you celebrating. :xcheer:

Today has been a blur...I had a training session this morning, which went well despite the dizziness I had from a decongestant due to a sinus infection. Fun. I've been running errands since then. I hope you are all having a wonderful day and enjoy your celebrations w/o too much excess calorage. ;)

As for today's details:

Every little bit helps.

Later.....

BBB, ONE more post and you can get a ticker! :celebrate: Congrats on the gi-normous weight loss! :hot: :hot: :hot:

Ruth, it's pretty common to have some water weight after a hard workout. I get it all the time from lifting. It just means your body is doing some muscle repair..that's a good sign! It will be gone in a couple days. :hug: Drinking extra water helps move things along a little faster, I hear.

I've been OP up to now, but heading to my sister's soon for some festivities and evil food. :devil: Today and tomorrow will not be on plan, but I'll be back to it on Friday. Meantime, I'm not stressing on it! Last night, the boy and I watched "Olive, the Other Reindeer". It's one of my faves. Tonight, the traditional Xmas Eve showing of "A Christmas Story" of course. Happy Christmas/Hannukah/Solstice, peeps!

Hi all,

GW 159.2
I weighed in this morning and didn't gain - so that's good. Still looking to get my mojo back, but I figure coming back to 3fc is always a good idea.
Good Luck!

Okay, so it has been a while since I was in one of the 5 pound challenges. I would like to start again. I see this one just started a few days ago. I hope that is okay with everyone. I have recently gained 4 pounds and need to get moving in the correct direction again. Here goes.

woot, down from 197.8 yesterday by 0.6lbs ^_^

Merry Christmas to those who celebrate the day! (And Happy Thursday to those who don't! :) ).

I'm visiting family and don't have access to my scale, so no weighing in the morning, plus I won't be around much. Just wanted to stop in and wish everyone a good day.

Happy Holidays - 5 pounders!

What am I doing to myself! It killed me to change my ticker. I didn't overindulge over the holiday or anything. But I did basically starve myself for the week prior which I think really slowed down my metabolism and dehydrated myself. I need to do this the right way..but it's soooo hard. I just want the quick fix. But I know that it has to be a lifestyle change, not a diet. I haven't been to the gym in weeks. I need to go back and kick my metabolism back in gear.

I maintained over the holidays. Okay -- so I'm going to look at that as good. I could have gained, but didn't. I had birthday cake (mine), had TOM, ate some Christmas cookies -- and I maintained, not gained.

So today, I'm going to be happy about it. :carrot: And in the next couple of days I'm expecting a loss. I'm going to make it happen! :carrot: :D

i've slightly relapse over this past week and am up by like 10 pounds.. CRAZYNESS. I will be jumping on the challenge train as soon as the new one starts :)

Don't even know what my scale said today. I got several different answers. Whatever it is, it isn't pretty. One more family gathering on Sat. to make it through. I see light at the end of the food tunnel.

Up a pound and am pretty happy about that considering my over indulgent couple of days.

It's over! I'm so cured of Christmas food, it's not even funny! Megadose of sodium, carbs and calories, anyone? Back OP today. I've never been so happy to see steamed broccoli in my life, and that's the truth!

Well, I was right on track until Christmas eve and am still off the rails today. I figure that's not real weight and I should get it off next week.

Congratulations!! Yay!!
