Well I'm finally moving in the right direction again even though my stomach is "talking" to me again. I haven't heard these sounds since I was fresh from surgery, so I'm back to analyzing what's different this time around. Dang it, its raining out. No bike riding! Now if I can just motivate my ass out of the chair into the gym. Oh well, my stats so far:

Now I just have to get through my 3 Christmases this week. But for the one I'm cooking something and bring it along so I'm good there and for the other two I'm bring stuff along in my purse just in case. And I survived and even lost a pound over my 3 Thanksgiving so I'm hoping it will be the same here.

Amazing!! So happy for you. Keep up the good work and remember maintenance is so much harder than losing. We must stay diligent!!

Awesome!! You will reach your goal soon!!
This week has been a good one. I have eaten a few bites of sweets here or there, but nothing over-the-top. I am hoping to continue to maintain until January 1st, then life gets somewhat back to normal.

A small drop this week... 1 pound. I now only have 1 pound to lose and 1/4" off my bust to lose to make my January 1st goal. Worst time of year, but I am so happy I have this goal so I can stay focused and on track!
I hope everyone has a great week!
