December Challenge-Happy Holidays!

Welcome to the monthly challenge. December is here and here come all the Holidays!! This challenge is a fun way to keep track of your monthly weight loss while gaining and giving support to other bandsters.

Copy and post the template below and fill in the information that you are comfortable sharing on December 1st then come back every Sunday on the 8th, 15th, 22nd, 29th and the LAST DAY OF THE MONTH --Tuesday December 31st and post your updated weight. I will keep track of the weights to get a table listing everyone's results on the following weekend.

Good luck to everyone and remember this isn't a contest it's a challenge and you are a winner no matter how much you lose. The first three items are required all others are recommended, but the last one is the most fun. If you are new to our monthly challenge please leave a short introduction.

December 1: 254

Goal December 31: 248

December 15: 248

Made my goal earlier than expected, and without it being stressful! I am so happy with my decision to get WLS

Well, if I had checked in on Friday, I wouldn't have lost any this week, but checking in today at 247.2! Woo hoo!! :)

Checking in :

Dec 1 - 208

Dec 8 - 207

Dec 15 - 206

Checking in 12/16/13 = 238

December 1st weight: 338

Last weight in: 336

Today's check in: 333 (down 5 pounds this month, down 36 pounds total)

Goal: 328 (5 more to go!)

This week's goal: exercise at least 15 per day or 30 minutes 3x this week.

I weighed in at 272.0 lbs. I showed a weight gain. I know it's not much, but a gain is just that - a gain. :( I have showed a weight loss then I show a weight gain. It is very frustrating.

I believe I set my goal for December 31 at 285. I'm checking in today at......280.1 :)

That's a total of 74lbs gone! (That includes a little rounding....)

Have a great day!
