HAPPY NEW YEAR, EVERYONE!
I hope your holidays were fantastic, like mine were. I went to Michigan for Christmas, and then to Chicago for a couple days for New Years. Now I’m back in Los Angeles, where I’m fighting a nasty cold and working my way through a box of tissues like nobody’s business. I have a (hopefully) fun post with lots of (hopefully) fun pictures planned of some highlights from my Christmas vacation, but I’m just too tired to start working on it now. But, I didn’t want to leave you hanging, since it’s been a while since I’ve posted anything – 17 days, as it was pointed out to me via text message from a friend and reader. So… here’s what happened when I stepped on the scale this morning! It’s my first weigh in of 2013!
I made it through the holidays without gaining weight!
I didn’t lose any, either, but I wasn’t expecting a loss, not with Christmas cookies and other such temptations around every corner. My goal for the holidays was to strike a balance between making smart choices and indulging in some of the treats that came my way, and it appears I found a balance that worked for me. I’ll have more to say about that in my next post – including what some of those smart choices were – but for now, here’s another pic of my weight loss chart. I’m closing in on three years of weight loss charting!
Oh, I nearly forgot: my weight of 240 pounds means I’ve lost 161 pounds.
Keep it up, David!



Yay!! Congrats David on maintaining through our eat-a-thon!
Happy New Year, David! Good for you on the weight maintenance and smart choices. That’s a significant achievement because it says you have truly affected a life style change. Terrific!!
CONGRATS!
Holla holla!! HNY, David!
Crazy impressive.
Sounds more like a ‘Friend, Reader, and “Biggest Fan” ‘
Yaay! I didn’t gain any over the holidays either. I see that as a huge success!!
Making it through the holidays without gaining any weight is fantastic. Good for you!
That’s awesome! It takes a lot of work day in and day out to maintain. Even more work when you are sick and it the holidays. Love your graph.
