@brightresolve - I do my best to focus on the positive. I have adrenal fatigue and suffered too many years with high stress. In my family, I am the one that everyone comes to to talk out their problems, so I have learned to "woo-saa" myself out of worrying over their stressful situations. Now, tonight I will have a talk with her (my body) and I'll see if she listened to me tomorrow morning when I weigh in.7

R32 SW - 55.7

Day/Weight/Comment
3/9 - 53.8 - daily goal: shamefully failed. I simply forgot that I need to drink something else than just a few little cups of tea... On the bright side, I made a wonderful pizza! It was quite delicious!
3/10 - 53.8 - daily goal: failed, again.
3/11 - 53.7 - Yay! Daily goal: well, I drank something... And, awww, thank you for your hugs! That's so sweet of you, gals and guys! ❤7 -
Wife is out of town this weekend, which means that I'm in control of my food! It's time to test my theory - that I do better when I take control of things. Outside of one day last weekend (+4.0 lbs!) I had a great last round (still lost 2.2 lbs overall), and I'm looking to continue my journey toward that mythical place... ONEDERLAND.

Day/Weight/Comment
3/9 = 206.6 (-1.0). Good start, but this little whoosh just gets me back to zero. It officially took me 6 days to recover completely from last Saturday's 4.0 lb gain, but it finally happened. This was my normal pattern before this challenge. I need to remember how long it takes me to recover from a bad day, even a bad meal (6 days, apparently). That all being said, I'm energized. My knee feels great this morning without pain killers. I'm going to the gym tomorrow (need to rest one more day after my cortisone injection), and I'll get in my weights and my HIIT. It feels SO GOOD to be back down to zero. I'm going to destroy this weekend. No eating out. Everything planned. I might even cook. No wifey temptations, because she's in SF with her sister and friend.
3/10 = 207.8 (+1.2). LOL. Can't blame my wife for the Na+ bomb(s) I consumed yesterday. Ate within calories, but was 50% over in my salt intake. Another weird thing... it was REALLY HARD to get any water down yesterday. I ended up drinking about 100 ounces, but I had to force it down more or less, and drinking water is usually not a problem for me at all. Good news is there MAY be basketball today that I wasn't expecting (I'll find out in an hour or so). Either way I'm hitting the gym, and I'm going to make it a good day eating. Knee is still feeling good; we'll see how I feel AFTER the gym. Can missing my wife cause me to gain weight?
3/11 = 208.0 (+0.2). Basketball happened. I was more than 1300 calories below maintenance. I drank a crap load of water. The scale doesn't care! It's one weigh-in, and I'm not supposed to let one weigh-in bother me. But IT BOTHERS ME!!! And yet, as I say this, I have to acknowledge that I had 580 calories of junky sweet deliciousness yesterday, and a bunch of damned Na+. Under calories yes, but was it a healthy day? Not really. I really do miss my wife.

9: 214... So, so hungry yesterday. Thank you ovulation! Ate at maintenance... Not that it helped me maintain though. Lol
Another hungry day today. I guess we'll see what tomorrow brings.
10: 212.7...I expect to keep releasing weight, sometimes the timing surprises me though. I made decent choices yesterday, but also ate back most of my exercise calories. Macros were ok, but not great. Sodium was a bit high, but I got plenty of water in me. Ended with a 254 calorie deficit. Chili cook-off for a school event tonight. I'm prelogging as best as I can, so I can work the calories and macros into my day. I'm wanting to have 1 drink, which might put me over, but I'd rather not feel like I'm depriving myself.
11: 214.2... I'm not surprised by this at all. Over calories yesterday because of the school event last night. 1 glass of wine turned to 3, and I had bread with my chili and cookies from the bake-off for dessert. I hadn't planned for that. I did win the chili cook-off though! Came home and ended up going for a walk in the neighborhood because the air felt really refreshing. It was a good night, and I feel positive and at ease around recovering from a night of relatively minor indulgences.

Day/Weight/Comment
3/09 - 62.7kg (-0.3kg) - Really happy with my nutrition over this last week. More of the same today. Plan for the weekend is to stick to my light lunches both Saturday and Sunday and avoid the bread basket at my mother-in-laws on Sunday night! I'm also going to go alcohol-free this weekend as it really blew out my numbers last round and I spent the rest of the week regretting it.
3/10 - 62.6kg (-0.1kg) - Maintained the drop, that's good.
This is my lowest weight in my adult life. I saw this number at the end of last year and again in the middle of last round before TOM. Here's hoping to push past it. Onward and downward! (Confession time: I had half a glass of red wine last night, so much for alcohol free)
3/11- 62.8kg (+0.2kg) - Slightly suspicious of this number. I suspect I'll be up tomorrow too. Went to the movies, enjoyed some popcorn, had a take away for dinner and some of my partner's Easter egg. Anyway, not complaining about that little blip as my weekend bump up! Yay!
3/12 - 62.6kg (-0.2kg) - It's Monday and the weekend weight is gone already! This never happens so I am suspicious but happy. Meals prepped for the work, weather looking ok for a few walks - looking to be a good week!

3/9 - 97.1kg -2 glasses of wine, 2 biscuits and some sweets... Yesterday was a bad day-toddler on complete meltdown toddler mode from 8am to 7pm! Hasn't shown on the scale but I'm sure it'll bite me tomorrow! But I have spinning tomorrow so fingers crossed I get away with it!
3/10- 96.8kg - bit of a tummy bug during the night so doubt this will stick!
3/11- 97.6kg - knew it wouldn't stick, but I did also end up eating 2 semlor and having a few glasses of wine so that will probably explain it! Buuuuut I have done 45 mins spinning plus a bit more cardio and a few weights today so should start heading down again tomorrow! (Fingers crossed!)
3/12- 97.4 - Spinning paying off! Had a big Saturday but gym yesterday and stick to plan for the week and the numbers should keep going down!

Peaches to Beaches was yesterday, and my friend Sandra came up from my hometown. We spent all day going from one yard sale to another. We did a lot of walking, but we did a lot of eating, too, both sweets, greasy, and salty with little water! Totally enjoyed myself; it was worth every watery pound! , but back on track, today!

3/09 - 140.30lb! Wow that must have been some meal on Wednesday evening! I know it was a larger than meal than I normally have and pasta, followed by a cheese board which I don't very often have but blimey - its hanging around!!! Another wait for a whoosh! Should all be ok today and Saturday but Sunday is Mothers Day here in the UK so hoping to not get chocolates! Nothing else in the diary for this round other than Mothers Day so my round target of under 136lb should be achievable.
3/10 - DNW
3/11 - DNW
3/12 - 143.20lb - not at all surprised! Ate out last Wednesday and again Friday, plus Mothers Day weekend so involved chocolates, a giant cookie, cakes and a "popcorn and sweets" movie night plus a lovely dinner yesterday with all the trimmings including wine! No tracking at all.... However doing these challenges I know that these sort of weight gains aren't real gains, and that once I am back tracking properly (which I am today!) the excess will soon come off again. Before I started losing weight a weekend like this would have meant I carried on eating horribly for days if not weeks - but knowing I can have a totally off piste few days and then get back on it and get straight back in control is a good feeling

3/12: 115.4kg/254.4lbs – I have been away for the last 5 days, down in London and down to my parents. Had a great time and was so nice to get away! I kept a strong eye on what I was eating yet still managed to squeeze in some really nice food, plus I had my first Pizza of 2018 and my god it was amazing! I felt like I had earned it and I didn’t feel guilty for a change. Great to see my weight has also stayed within 0.1kg too.
Sidenote: I have signed up to do a marathon in October, never done one before however I am doing it for myself, to set a goal and beat it! Training has started and this weight loss is really helping my mentality. Thanks for all your continued support – love this page!

Starting late, but I have been weighing daily. These 10 days have already been off to a rocky start. My stove quit working, and I have to wait a week before a new one gets here. My washer is having major issues and need a new one, and my husband's car started pouring fluids. It needs a new water pump, but in order to fix it in his car, they have to drop his engine. Its been a hard few days to say the least. It's incredibly hard to eat healthy without a stove. My weight has been fluctuating so horribly as well. It's the worst I've ever seen it honestly.
OSW: 202
R34SW: 159
UGW: 125
03/09: 159 Frustrated. This is a 4lb gain, and I'm so not happy about it. First night without a stove too since my F1 alarm went off and a glass pan I was making enchiladas in exploded. The stove wouldn't even turn off, so I had to unplug it. My oldest son also started behavioral therapy.
03/10: 158.8 Down 2 oz. Going shopping for a new stove today. Hope it doesn't take forever to get one.
03/11: 157.4 I'm not eating the best, but I'm not feeling particularly hungry either. I hope it improves tomorrow. Our stove will be here on Wednesday! We also purchased a new dishwasher and a washer. (Our washer has been on the fritz too.)
03/12: 156: My weight is coming back down. I hope I lose that last lb soon, and it stays away. It's back to the grind today. I hope everyone has a good work week.10 -
