Team Skinny Dec. 2012.....Happy Weightloss!

As much as I'd like to make this a break out month and hammer down 10 pounds I think I'm going to be a little more realistic.

234 on the scale this morning.

228 by month's end.

Other goals - 60 miles running- gotta (re)start somewhere

Weighed in at 190.8 on Wednesday.  My goal for the end of the month just to be sub 190.  It's going to be a busy month with lots of Holiday parties and even more beer.

I am looking forward to this month - I just joined a new gym and am going to be starting a spin class and I think I'm going to take a yoga class to.  Should be fun.

New to the group.  little bit about me.  I am about 5' 5" and 40 years old.   I have completed one sprint triathlon and two half marathons last couple of years ago at 180lbs.  Had two bad years and gained around 25 lbs to 205.    So I am looking to get back in shape and lose the weight.

Long term goal - reach weight goal of 160 (College years)

short term goal is 190 by end of Jan 2013.

Dec 1st - 200lbs

Welcome to the group kjbuck2!  It's been a little quiet around here glad to see a new face.

Congratz on that weight loss!  That is a big drop.  Welcome to the group!

After hitting my goal weight this year I stopped posting in here.  During my marathon training I got into the mindset that I could eat whatever I wanted, which worked until I was done training.  So I am back and ready to get after it again.

My December goal is 185 lbs and my overall goal is 175 lbs.

Dec 1: 190

Dec 5: 188.4

Starting Dec at 158.0 and my goal is 155. Not very aggressive but I'm hoping to be down a few and most importantly NOT gain during the holiday season. I started the end of August at 180.2 and am so happy to be down 22 lbs! Long term goal is down to about 145.

3/28 - 238

10/31 193.2

11/8 192.6

11/14 191.6

11/28 190.8

12/05/12 190.2

Slow and steady... Just need to get use to it.  Wish those pounds were as easy to loose as to put on.  Can taste the 180's. 

12/6 - 195.8

12/1 - 234

12/6 - 230

Time to get back in the mix, after getting down to 216 I have packed it back on, damn!

12-7 228

Goal is 205

Realistic goal for this month is 225 

Know your restaurants before you go. Most chains have a lower calorie menue. Applebees as a few steak dinners that you can get for under 600 calories. I think Outback does as well - many major chains do. Pack some fruit for snacks. If you're often traveling within the same area it makes it a little easier. Do a little research before you go. The worst way to go about it is to drive around in the evening without a plan, just looking to drive by a place and think "I guess I'll eat there"

Wow Chris, amazing job!

Thanks, but it seems to be an anomaly, and xmas parties/get togethers aren't helping at all!  I need to refocus on what got me here
