November/December weight management challenge

[Dannielle]

I'd like to participate. I've recently reached my goal weight after having lost a little over 200lbs and could use some camaraderie while I work on maintaining through the colder months (so more gym time, less bike trail) and holidays. I'm playing with some dietary tweaks (finding the common ground between 2 ways of eating that seem divergent but equally appeal to me-paleo/primal and DrFuhrman's ways) so accountability will be a good thing.

I'll join...I have been changing my eating habits and instead of eating out for lunch at work been bringing my food from home. Been going to the gym on a regular basis for the past 3 months or so...not really dieting but trying to eat more proportional and healthier and trying not to eat after 7 p.m. if I am hungry at night I eat something like a fruit or a healthy cereal with soy milk. Since then I have lost 17 lbs ...my goal is to drop 15lbs or more if possible by the end of December. A few years ago I went on a strict healthy diet and extremely excersise routine by myself and lost 70lbs in 8 months. I was able to wear petite sizes. Stopped going to the gym got depressed because of some personals...and slowly gained them back. I still have all that clothes hanging in my closet and I am planning on wearing all of it again..... so let's do it...!!

In - I will weigh in Friday. (I think I may be up a little from last week owing to a trip to a 2 Michelin star restaurant with about 11 courses on Sunday. Worth it. )

In!

2. Let's just use today's weight for Weight Watchers - 145
3. Goal - 135 (this is my ultimate goal after reaching a high of 173 last summer).

I am about to start racing marathon (usually 50 mile races on mountain bike courses) but my biggest challenge of my life is the January 7 Excrutiation Exam which starts at one mountain bike course, does the 9 mile loop there, rides the road to another course, does approximately 20 miles there and then rides the road bike for a grand total of 80-90 miles depending on the year.

In! Thursday is my WW weigh-in so I'll post that, and my goal weight, for the Friday 11/4 start.

I think I may be up a little from last week owing to a trip to a 2 Michelin star restaurant with about 11 courses on Sunday. Worth it.

Heh, I think I gained a few pounds looking at the menu on their website.

If you're going to splurge, make it worthwhile!


Thanks for doing this again, PG.

I'm in too! Goal for end of December is 139. I'll post my starting weight on Friday.

This will be a good test of my paleo lifestyle - can I keep my weight loss momentum through the holidays? That's the plan!

I'm in too - if it's OK, I might not set a goal for this one, though. I'm not meeting my goals - but I am getting in better shape, tweaking my diet, and generally becoming healthier. I'm going to focus on those things, and see where the weight ends up, I think.
