  • Quote: So 10 lbs will put me into Onederland. I haven't seen a one in front of my weight since right after my daughter was born almost 5 years ago (and even that was very short lived).

    January first is also a few days before my husband should get home from his current deployment. He has no idea what I look like now. I'd secretly like to get down to 196.5 by the time he gets back. That way I could say I've lost 50 since the last time he saw me (I lost 13 this summer before he left).
    Onderland for the New Year would be great!! You can do it!!

    My husband is also military. Last time he had a full deployment (6months) I gained a lot. He just got back from a 2 month TDY the end of October, during which I lost like 20lbs! It was so great to see the look on his face. And how he couldn't keep his hands off me . . .

    Quote: I didn't lose a dang thing in November...but I didn't gain a dang thing either . I'm going to shoot for 10 again this month and see how it goes!
    Not gaining around the holiday's is a WIN in my book!
  • alrighty! maybe this time...

    start: 172.2
    end: 162.2
  • Quote: Ok. I'm not trying to be snarky, but this is somewhat surreal for me. I don't have 10 pounds to lose any more! (at least I don't think so!). I managed last month to drop exactly 10 pounds which is the first time I managed it but had help at the beginning of the month with TTOM weight. Wow!

    But honestly, with my birthdyay, Christmas, two Christmas parties and new years eve, I hope just to maintain. I'll work on more loss, but I won't beat myself up with just maintaining in this month of abundance. That's a success in itself.

    wow!! congratulations, girl, that is amazing! i am seriously so happy for you. good luck with maintaining through the holidays
  • In for sure! I've averaged 10 pounds a month in October and November and really hope I can keep it going in December! Honestly I'll be happy with any loss with everything going on this month but I'm going to keep working for that 10. If I can make it that would mean I would achieve my second mini goal and blow past my 2nd 10% by this time next month!

  • I'm in, Ill shoot for 10 but as long as I hit 130 I would be happy!

    November sucked a little for me. I'm just not losing weight as fast as I was! So I have added intervals and yoga into my routine. Hopefully that stokes the fire a little bit!

    Lets do this!
  • Weight this morning was 227, so I'm going to shoot for 217.
  • Hi all! I lost exactly 10 pounds last month. At my weight I could probably be losing faster, but considering Halloween candy, my daughter's birthday, and TG I am beyond fine with it!!

  • I'm in!

    BW: 163 (It's been up from 156, I guess I'm retaining water for whatever reason)
    GW: 153

    Which would leave me with 8 to 13 pounds left!
  • I'm in but this is going to be a tough month. I love to bake and have lots of opportunities coming up, so I'm going to have to exhibit some self-control. There are cookies in my freezer right now!

    I haven't seen the 160s in over 10 years. Yikes!
  • I'm going to really try to get into the 150's this month. I've spent too long in the 160's...

    Down exactly a lb overnight. I was way under my cals yesterday... I kinda do IF, and I had 3 corn tortillas with fajita veggies in them last night and an apple at like, 9, so that's why. But I felt great all day and even had energy to do a DVD.

    Keep going everyone!! Its only 12/2 and we can DO THIS!!
  • I'm in! I haven't lost much Since October. I, however, am not looking to lose 10 pounds this month. I am just aiming for 3 lb. I'll be happy with at least a 2 lb loss.

    SW: 120.8
    GW: 117.8
  • i would love to lose 10lbs (or 5kg) by jan 1st! don't know how realistic it is but i'll try my hardest!

    sw: 88kg
    gw: 83kg
  • Been waiting for this post to go up, I'm going by my Holiday Goal ticker for this one.

    Ugh, I've got a lot of parties on the schedule this month, but I'm gonna stick with it!
  • I'm in! Last month I lost roughly 5.5lb

    This morning i will weigh in at my school gym because they have a scale like they have a doctor's offices. However, this number might be slightly higher than last week's 210.5, because last night I got my TOM. I don't know when it'll be over either because I only get them once ir twice a year and sometimes they last for a month. The cramps are ridiculous so I am not sure if I will be able to get to the gym as much as I'd like. I hate this especially during finals week!

    Oh well it doesn't help to complain about it. Official weigh in will be posted early this afternoon class because my school gym doesn't open til noon
