Wow. That's some massive fluctuations right there. I did spend the weekend celebrating 15 years together with my husband and over did it somewhat so this weeks focus is drinking water and exercise!
Hope you all have a good week!0 -

jtkatch- I have been at it for a couple months now. Have had some ups and downs but finally feel in the groove. I am 52 and hypothyroid so I really feel like this is the way for me. My energy levels have doubled without the carbs. I am not vegan but I love veggies. I am sure that is an added level for your eating plan. I find that if I prelog I can see how things work out together and it helps keep me focused and on track. I will try to get you those percentages later.
Christine- It takes a little to figure out how much of what things work together to keep us in the cal/macro range. Like I mentioned about try prelogging some things so you can figure out what you need more or less of...
Michael you are sorta quiet so I am thinking your stressing a bit? (forgive me if I am being overly presumptuous.)
Remember "Don't let perfect be the enemy of good" Each day is it's own. It has nothing to do with yesterday. We have swings. It's about the big picture. WE are with ya!2 -

You are right, I am stressing. I don't understand how (even though I have been eating alot), that I can gain 17 lbs in 4 days, I don't get that, have I messed up my metabolism forever? Anyway, I am getting back to eating less, eating better, and moving more today. So I expect to see the numbers go down this week, but it is very frustrating for me. Thank you for the encouragement.1 -
Been bouncing around between (literally) 145.2 and 144.1 for several days. When I eat too much and don't drink enough - 145.2. When I do the right thing - 144.1.
I'm ready to see a 143, so I'm going to string together some days of being more strict. I'm tired of maintaining at this point and need to finish the job.

Sorry, I've not been doing this long enough to give you much advice, and it's definitely not the same, but I went up 6lbs in 2 days and I was quite frustrated and disheartened so I sort of know how you feel.
This week I know I have to focus on eating better, moving more and most importantly, drinking enough water. As @frankiesgirl21 says, each day is it's own and we're all here doing it together. Good luck for this week, and I hope you don't stay down about it too long!

I'm eating out tonight so hopefully I can stick to something without too much salt!
Trying to stay under sodium max when eating out is almost impossible for me, I pretty much have to go with a salad, and even then be careful with what meats are in it and the dressings.
I started bringing my salad dressing in a little tuperware container when we go out to eat. Drove my husband nuts at first, but now he just finds it amusing. I use Bolthouse yogurt dressings and that'll save me almost 200 calories over restaurant blue cheese dressings. I keep it in the orange 21 day fix cup so I know my portion. I am always ready for the sodium bloat for the day or two after eating out. I have resigned myself to it, even though it annoys the ever loving jinkies out of me.
Oh I need to do this! Are you on the 21 day fix plan? I wondered about it, but I've been doing well on this so why pay for something else right? I was just curious if you felt it is helping a lot and worth it.
I tried the 21 day fix and it didn't fix me, LOL! It seems like a premise that can work, but I find this much easier!0 -
Hello!!
Frankiesgirl21- I'll definitely start working on logging in before hand. I could be eating more but by the time I realize it (now) I feel like it's getting too late to eat haha so that should definitely help me. Thanks
Michael_jordan7- I hope you stay motivated and push through this bump. It happens to all of us but we just have o decide to keep moving forward. You've been a great inspiration and have brought us all here so keep it up! You got this.
9/12- 133.2
Hoping to finally see 132 tomorrow. I drank more water today, went on a longer run, and stayed within my calorie goal. Moving forward just one day at a time.
Sweet dreams y'all. 1 -
