Another one bites the dust

Main

Yet another Christmas down, heading into a new decade in just a few days. 2010 was a weird year for me, since I was in the middle of a weight loss journey and yet stuck in stasis, watching the scale go upward no matter my food behavior. In hindsight it messed with my head a little, but I came out the other side at a healthy weight and with very little post-baby fat to lose before being back where I started. In the past two months I have been losing, I have gone from about 215 to a reliable 207, most days. As much as I feel frustrated with what feels like half the month of December ping-ponging around due to holiday overindulgence, the fact remains I am still down for the month (I began at around 211, and thus am down 4-5 pounds even with party eating).

Am I as low as I wanted to be in December? Nope. Am I where I wanted myself to be by the end of the year? Nope again. I am still hopeful to see 205 by this coming Monday, but either way I am happy for any loss and can't get too upset shout not posting bigger numbers when I didn't stay on plan!

My plan, as always, is to stick to my calories and eat primarily healthy, whole foods. I've been doing pretty well with the latter, the former has been my downfall over the past few weeks. For a few days, getting the weight off took a backseat to fun eating. But that is over now, and my priorities have to shift back to where they belong. And so, here's to a week on plan and doing well!

My weight this morning was 207.4 without nursing on both sides, so that accounts for some water weight (so to speak - Seth eats between 4-8 oz per feeding, so I could have had half a pound of milk weighing me down), I'd like to be back to the low 206's or 205 by next week, and shall eat accordingly. Have a wonderful new year, everyone!

Losing even a little during the holidays is really something to look at positively! Great job!

I agree, though, it sometimes just feels better when the holidays are over, even though I love them.
