  • Great to see everyone starting to show back up for a new month...hiiii guys!

    --------------------------------------

    I updated my main post with my end-of-the-month stats and my monthly goal. And, the first weigh-in of December was 219.8! Now, that was after some more fluctuactions on the scale again and settling on the reading I was getting most, so I won't know if I truly broke out of the 220s until tomorrow, but I will be excited about it for today...lol. In fact, 219 was the lowest weight I have been since my husband and I started dating (and he didn't even get to be there for it since he was deployed when it happened...lol) over 10 years ago! My lowest weight ever was 167 when I was a teenager, but - as an adult - 219 is my low. So, I'm excited to only be about a pound from hitting that again and moving down past it! Fingers crossed that I will keep moving down tomorrow...can't wait to replace this pesky scale, lol. I'm so pumped to move past this point that I might even jog as much as I can manage during my walk later! Haha.

  • Ophelia: congrats on almost reaching a new low!

    I gained about 4 lbs after thanksgiving putting me at 139 but I haven't had access to a scale since and will not see one until tomorrow morning. But my exercising has been on point since the gain so im expecting a big drop. The holidays are always so challenging and the biggest one is yet to come. I'm hoping to lose 4 lbs this month which is a fairly ambitious goal since I'll be home again starting after next weekend. But I'm optimistic
  • Welcome, everyone! I'll make our initial list tomorrow.

    Weigh-in was back up a bit to 220.2, but I had a super salty dinner last night (accidentally dumped WAY too much Cajun seasoning on it while cooking), so I only have myself to blame for the bloat up this morning...lol. I want to drop back into those teens tomorrow, so hitting the water hard today!
