While the goal was to lose 50 pounds from June 30 to Christmas, getting sick in November and December limited me to losing 35.  I don't like missing targets, but I'll take it as a win.   For 2026 the goal is to lose 25 more, for a total of 60, by May 1.  60 pounds in 10 months.   Let the skating resume.  

  A lingering cold slowed my progress in November making it now impossible for me reach my goal of losing 50 pounds by Christmas.  Rather than celebrate the 35.2 pounds I've lost in 5 months, I spent Thanksgiving week berating myself about missing my goal.  This week I am choosing to focus on the positive and work to lose the 4.8 pounds in the 3 remaining weeks that will put me down 40 pounds.

19 pounds to go in 52 days.   For November, I've doubled the daily workout goals for a push to the finish line.  

119 days, exactly 30 pounds lost.  I'm thinking maybe I should move the goal from 50 to 60.  Why not? Lose 60 pounds for my 60th birthday.  Yes, yes, I think I will.
