[outofmyhead]

214 this morning 1 week to go perhaps ill make it to 40 overall if i get my act together, gl to everyone for the final week.

[deebee83]

Saw some big swings on the scale this week. As low as 179, but as high as 184.

Ended up at 180, -2 for the week. Hope you all did well this week with Christmas looming a couple days from now

[truushot]

-1.6 184.4. Think its just water weight.

[cnh57811]

171.2
Down 0.8.

Last night was my first test with family over for dinner. I did way better than at t-day. I ate reasonable portions, but resisted the bingeing. Feels good.

[DamianMK]

203lb, down 2lb.

Feel disinterested in Christmas treats so far, hopefully can keep that going through the next week.

I think I will be in for the next comp. As weak and small as I consider myself to be, I have at least ~25lb to lose before I concentrate on strength/size gains.

[matman1813]

232lbs, 3.5lbs down. Busting my ass to finish in the top 5 Hopefully I don't mess it up over Christmas.

[NONOPUST]

199.6
+0.9lbs

It's from all the salt and drinking I did the past couple of days

[deebee83]

Sloooow in here, for a Sunday. Hope we didn't lose too many.

Holiday party for me tonight. Hello there, caloric surplus.

[BodyOfLaw]

Down another 1.4 to 187.6. Gonna bust my ass to hit 185 by NYE!

Hey Guys/Gals;

I updated the spreadsheet with the 16 submissions that I had. Still missing 8 people. We might regain one or two more, but we'll have to see tomorrow. Right now, we are at 16 however I left the remaining people on the sheet to give them a chance to get back on tomorrow. If they don't submit I will remove them so the stats are accurate.

With them removed, we got some new people in the runnings. I will post graph/new stat sheet tomorrow when/if any of the other results are in.

Going to open up the new competition for January-March tomorrow also. Will post link in this thread so you don't have to go searching through the main forum.'

Thanks for hosting these, Krete. I don't think I'll be in the next one but I'm reserving the right to drop in and congratulate people on their successes from time to time. I'm giving myself a medal of honor for breaking everyone's fall in the last two comps...

Congrats to everyone in here who dropped a significant amount of weight in just three months!

Just saw a vein pop out on my quad for the first time ever. Little things like that keep my motivation revving.

[DamianMK]

Merry Christmas to the thread.

Checking in at 202 this morning. 3 family meals ahead of me today. Let the games begin.

[madhessian]

I know I blew it and fell off. Life, the holidays, and a blown up computer, kicked me to the curb. Back up and running, but that's how it goes. Merry X-Mas to all and good luck.

Get back on it in the next one

[deebee83]

How's everyone doing with the end of the year holidays all around? I'd love to finish strong, but I've gotta say this has been my worst week of cutting since I started back at the end of summer. I've just had 4 days in a row of drinks, desserts, drinks, big meals...and more drinks. I've had nothing but a great time, and I feel like I'd be going overboard if I couldn't enjoy myself on special occasions because of a dietary restrictions. That being said, putting on 5 lbs in 4 days isn't the best feeling.

I hope you're all finishing 2012 the way you want to, whether it's PSMFing for the last few days to drop every last ounce of fat before NYE, or bingeing on pie and scotch because you've earned it, or anywhere in between.

And yes, I'm considering spending the last 4 days of the year on a PSMF or a legendary pie/scotch binge...have not made up my mind.

[cnh57811]

Somehow, I was able to keep my indulging to just Christmas night's dessert. I may have been a bit over maintenance on Christmas day, but I'm still in a deficit overall for the week for sure.

Edit: DeeBee...don't do it man. It's so easy to over indulge and set yourself weeks back in just a couple days of bingeing. Enjoy what you have already enjoyed and continue so, if you want in moderation, but don't go crazy.

[missladyj]

I'm still in...did some fat ass things I'm not proud of, so submitting next Sunday to keep myself in denial while I try to salvage diet

LOL.

Up to you guys. I can ride it out til' the 1st...or you can do it on Sunday. I'll do a final update on the 1st anyhow.

[deebee83]

Biggest weight swings in a week I've ever seen. Hi there, water weight.

Last Sunday: 180
Day after Christmas: 187
Today: 179

Thought for sure that +1 would be best case scenario for me this week, came in -1.

Now I'm going to start creatine. Should be interesting to see what my weight does in week 1 of the next comp.

Congrats to everyone who stuck with this until the end!

[cnh57811]

170

Down 1lb. That's a total loss of 20lbs.

In the next comp to lose another 12-15. Then it's bulky time

[truushot]

183.8 Competition end weight?

[outofmyhead]

+1 for the week **** me lol
