Very grateful and surprised I barely won this bet. So many crazy weight fluctuations from Thanksgiving, Disney trip, and holiday parties, but following 2b mindset on the days in between these events really taught me that consistency pays off…onto the January Dietbet!!! Hope everyone keeps up with the great habits so we can ring in the New Year proud of ourselves for not waiting until Jan 1 to take care of ourselves!!! Happy Holidays everyone!!

Hey y’all if I know I’m not gonna win do I need to still take photos and weigh in?

0.6 pounds above Dietbet goal weight. “Don’t self sabotage, don’t self sabotage, don’t self sabotage”…and whether I win or lose, I really don’t want to self sabotage after the Dietbet is over!! I don’t think I could have lost any weight without this group, so THANK YOU!!

I didn’t let myself spiral after overeating at a party on Saturday night. Threw away the leftovers the hostess made me take, drank water and lots of veggies yesterday, no snacking, and had a nice WLD, rare for me on a Sunday! I have 1.3 pounds to win this Dietbet. There is so much holiday candy/chocolate and treats flooding into our clinic in the hospital so I’m telling everyone to keep them away from me!!

Despite all the reasons to not take a walk a walk, I did it! I don’t love winter. It’s 30 here, cloudy and spitting some snow. I have a head cold and I got almost no sleep last night getting up 7 times with both kids throwing up

Tracking is so important. Fell off tracking that this past weekend I thought I was okay till stepped on the scale. It creeps up! Upset with myself! I didn’t even have any holiday parties this weekend. Grandson came to visit. Celebrated our 15 years Anniversary! I have to get my mindset on the right track! Drinking water and focusing on veggies today!!

Did not make good choices last night at a holiday party and feeling puffy and up a few pounds. Not going to wait until Monday. Drinking tons of water, walking, and eating whole unprocessed foods all day.

I maintained my weight loss from yesterday!! Now I’m officially in a new number bracket!!
Even if I just keep this off, I’m so excited!
Still… making great choices today. Planning a high protein treat for my birthday today!

I’ve been so up and down with emotions…post Disney family vacay blues, overwhelmed with huge holiday to do list and schedule, procrastinating doing all the things on the to do list…thanks to emotional eating/snacking, the scale has been up 4-5 pounds then went down 1-2 pounds, so I am 2-3 pounds above Dietbet goal. Time to snap out of it, drink my water, prep lots of veggies, throw away the silly treats in my house, repeat meals that have led to weight loss in the past, and STOP SNACKING!! Hope everyone is doing well…don’t give up!!!
