These challenges can be difficult this time of year. Originally they were for getting weight off slowly but surely. You are not alone in gaining weight and or being off plan. I was thinking maybe a 10 lbs challenge would be a bit more challenging and more likely to keep me on the right path.😂🤣😂

I have my weekly weight on Tuesday, so since I am rejoining, I will start with a beginning weight tomorrow. I just lost the easiest beginning 20 lbs, so now the real test begins. Overall I have another 110 lbs to go to my health goal-but anything is better than where I am now. My personal goal is eight to 10 lbs a month-a real stretch because I can't exercise. I'm looking at a full year of low carbing.

I’ll join you tomorrow if you like Chris.
Not sure Entropy is still in though.
Maybe we should just restart this one.
Up to you Entropy.

As you can see I did reach my 20 lb goal for December-the easy pounds for me. Now comes the real struggle with self control and staying on program. In the past I have been able to lose 10 lbs in one month, but was able to exercise at that time. Exercise is not an option now because of spinal and knee issues.
But i still have that goal.
Yes, maybe moving over to a new posting as we begin January 1st might be easier. A new year with fresh beginnings as we continue the same struggle.
Most of the leftovers from Christmas dinner are gone, and so are those temptations.
stay strong everyone.

Hello, Chris, wanna do a 10 lb challenge thread with me?
Same set up, only lbs to go is 10 lbs?
I can set one up, so this one stays for 5 lbs ( which we both can be part of too ).
