Default Down 9lbs. - Preparing For December Mini Goal

Overall, November was a success. My goal was 2lbs. per week, and I'm down 9lbs with 3 days left to go.

Also had a successful Thanksgiving. I had my first sweet drink in 3 weeks and it was iced tea mixed with lemonade (Arnold Palmer), and I only had 1 glass. I cut down on my portions and didn't gorge myself until I was too full to move, like I usually do.

Unfortunately my mom sent home a ton of food for my wife and daughter, so I have to look at it and smell it for the next few days... but on the up side, I can eat turkey sandwiches (without mayo) for lunch, so I'm not going to miss out on everything.

I also downed 1 liter of water to fill me up after I finished my smaller than usual plate. Overall I'm proud of myself, even though I didn't make it to the gym this morning as planned.

December Goal = 8lbs.

I'm going to start off December with a 48 hour juice fast, and start juicing for breakfast. I'm not a big time breakfast eater, so it will be better than oatmeal every day, which I'm tired of already.

I know I'm rambling, but this is the only place I talk about my weight struggle and journey. Hope all of you had a safe and happy Thanksgiving.

Congratulations!!! Having a Thanksgiving where you don't gorge yourself is an accomplishment in and of itself.

Wishing you continued success!

Thank you, and yeah, it was sooooo hard not to because my mom is a great cook. She learned from my grandma, who was a professional cook for over 30 years.
