Wow, it's been so long since I've checked in that I got logged out of the website.
Well, it's been quite a month. I have thoroughly enjoyed the sweets and delicious foods, and will continue to do so until they are gone. I am proud to say that I am enjoying them responsibly, like what I would guess a "normal" person might do. I'm not going overboard, and I'm not saying oh well, I blew the day already, might as well eat that too. I am exercising religiously, which I'm sure has been my saving grace.
My weight has been up and sort of down, but I haven't seen the 140s, as was my goal, since the beginning of the month. But today I am at 151.6, and that feels okay.
I am going to visit a college friend for NYE this weekend, and it will be debauchery and calories aplenty, I am sure, but I'm not worried anymore. I have proven to myself that I can enjoy life and not let my weight get out of control. What a great gift. I wish it on everyone here. I am looking forward to seeing people I haven't seen yet as a thin person, and that is worth hanging onto--even better than chocolate. But the sweet thing is that it's possible to have both, as long as I don't tell myself I have to have ALL the chocolate!
Congratulations to everyone who has stayed in control, and those who have come back to their senses after being out of control! Next year, we'll all reach our goal!
Well it's another day of 145.8, so this makes it 5 days in a row. I'm still looking to be at 145.0 by New Year's Eve. On a brighter note I am getting deeper in to my yoga practice. It's been about 3 months since i've been practicing, I'm a novice I know, but my body is really starting to feel stronger and longer.
Whatever your big plans are for New Year's Eve just remember to stay safe and be responsible. Make big plans to go in to the new year on a healthy and happy note.
Thank you MsPerception for starting this challenge for the month of December. I exceed my goal by 1/2 pound because I wanted to eat what I wanted at our Christmas parties.(down 4.5 lbs.) (I went up a pound but quickly took it right back off.) Challenges always works for me and this was a good one Ms Perception, thanks again. I'll be looking forward to seeing many more names in red by tonight? Or will you carry it over New Years Eve?

The rules of this thread are simple. We are here to provide each other some accountability along the path to weight loss. So, you just set your weight loss related goal(s) and it gets added to a goal list. When you reach your goal, it gets turned Red
My Goal this month is to lose 11 LBS. SW: 240 GW: 229
CW: 235.4 I lost 4.6 LBS. I should have only made my Goal 5 Lb's for this month. But at least I lost some weight this month. Which is Great for December.
I didn't make my goal weight this month, I did however, have a 2.8lb loss. My final weight for the year is 145.8. 2010 was an amazing year for me, and even though I'm still not at goal (so close I can taste it) I learned so much about my body, and for that I am proud.
I hope everyone had a fabulous year and accomplished as many goals as possible. Here's to a happy, healthy, positive, and productive 2011
Didn't make my goal for the month.
I gain 12lbs. as of this morning
No matter. What's done is over.
I'm back at it and ready to go again I still weigh less this morning than I did 1 year ago today so that's real progress.
I'm looking forward to 2011. Hope you are too
Scratch my whole "didn't quite make goal this month" post. As of this morning, I'm 174.8, which is .2 under my monthly goal! Also? It means I'm no longer obese!
Sorry for the delay (AGAIN!), but I've been out of town for the last 4-5 days visiting my grandma who has taken a turn for the worse. She doesn't have much time left, so I wanted to spend time with her when the opportunity presented itself. She lives about 7 hours away and the trip was short notice. Anyway, I'm back now and trying to get my head on straight and get back to normal life. See you in the January thread...
