Total Loss for December: 4lbs.

I exceeded goal for vacation but ended up gaining a lot, but thats ok. I'm pretty happy that I took a 9 day vacation and ended up with a loss for the month. I also went out to dinner last night and was bad. And I bought hubby and I a couple bottles of wine for tonight. But I've worked out every day since I've come home.

Congrats to everyone that stuck with it in Dec and those of you that struggled like I did, lets recommit, be real good in January and kick some butt!

Great challenge month, everyone! Happy New Year!

Jacqui_D: Wow! Look at you go! You'll be back around 164 before you know it!
Not really a workout - more like hours of shoveling ice/snow and then hours of moving heavy furniture from dawn until way after dusk. Feeling better now, though!

12/23: 151.0 lbs - stand still.....must drink more water
12/24: 152.0 lbs - tummy probs still

12/26: 151.0 lbs - drank a Coke Zero for the first time in ages this morn....that should get things moving
12/27: 150.4 lbs - Woot! Back to just below last weekend's low. I'm getting closer to goal but probably not possible to lose 1.2 lbs by Friday, since I'm off work all week. Work helps me stay on plan....must stay focused
