My TOM starts Thursday, so I felt like I was bloating like none other yesterday, and was just generally moody and unhappy. UGH! But I woke up to a nice surprise of another pound loss this morning! So -1.8 pound loss for me this week :D
SW: 227.5
CW: 224
GW: 212.5

It's my TOM, so I didn't expect any loss, but the scale is saying I've gained a pound. :( I'm mostly disappointed I'm not going to get close to my goal for the month now.

SW: 298
CW: 288
GW: 278

I've been under 145 for about 2 weeks now, which feels great! I'm hovering at about 143, but knowing with Thanksgiving tomorrow it'll probably bounce up again, but I'm so happy that I'm in the lower side of the 140's for the first time in my life I can remember! :D

Hang in there, ladies! We want to have our heads in the game for Thanksgiving!

No more TOMs for me, apparently, but the hot flashes aren't much fun--maybe they burn calories?

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I hope you all have a good day, whether it's OP or not, it's just one day out of the whole month, let's enjoy it! :)

How is everyone doing? I'm not going to make my goal but I'm planning to finish the month in a good place to set me up for next month.

I will not make my goal either - 15 pounds was WAY too high. However, I will have lost between 5 and 7, so I think my goal for next month will be about 7 because the second half of the month I will be on semester break and able to focus on eating right and losing weight for 3-4 weeks straight with no worries about work or classes. I can't wait :)

I actually ended up altering my goal because I found out that my SW was off by a pound! My goal is now 220, which I believe I can get to in the next two days, as I am 222 right now!

SW: 228.5
CW: 222
GW: 220

another 2 pound loss this week :)

Well I'm back up to 145.0 exactly but I knew I'd see a little gain after Thanksgiving. Just thought that 1 week was enough to get back to normal, but guess not! Thankfully though i'm still at goal for November, so I'm happy!

That's great, AilsaPearl!
Since I am just completing my TOM, and the month is also ending with me being about three pounds away from my goal, I've been thinking:

- that even if I don't meet my goal (likely), that not only did I NOT gain weight in a challenging month for Americans, but I lost some pounds, too
- that having this goal has really kept me focused and in-control
- that it's great to have the support of other like-minded weight-loss buddies

We'll see where we all end up come November 30, or December 1, if you prefer. However we end up, I'm sure that it's better off than where we started!

I hit my goal, 93kg and then some this morning when I weighed in at surprising 92.2!!! I'm a day ahead of most of you so good luck to everyone during these last few hours.

I'm not even going to weigh-in for a few days, because I fear the scale. Is anyone starting a December weight-loss challenge??

Congratulations, Changergirl! I don't know that I'll make it. I got close, though. :shrug:

Way to go, AilsaPearl, MelodyLeigh, and Changergirl!

Did I miss anyone?

Tabbycat here.

I weighed 125 "on the nose" this morning, so I met goal. :)

I weighed in at 229 so didn't reach my GW: 225.
