    So I have steadily seen my weight go down after the treat day, but it was not what I was hoping for. Since I have given up my treat days for the challenge, I am hoping to see a more movement this week.

    I believe your body will catch up to what you are doing and suddenly whoosh, pounds be gone.

    Fingers crossed for sure! I am really missing my Diet Soda... I have been clean since I started the challenge.

    I love the carbonation so I'll have a San Pelligrino or La Croix sparkling water to get my fizzy fix.

    I don't know why @jim_fbr but I hate carbonated water. I love Diet Soda for the bubbles, but I just can't do the carbonated water.

    Me too, I only like my water cold and plain...Good job not drinking any soda, I only drink diet soda at the movies which isn't very often but I gotta have it with my popcorn :p

    Day 8 of 21 - 185.1

    I didn’t have a treat day yesterday just a lot of carbs for dinner. Pepperoni chicken, half a mini bread loaf, and small package of famous Amos.

    It was calorific-

    Day 9 of 21 - 184.7

    Roast and carrots were on the menu last night! We also had a craving for ice cream so that happened.

    @Brendalea69 I was going low carb until the ice cream, but still got a difference!

    Day 10 of 21 - 186.2

    Had a last minute dinner option of Long John Silvers. Super bad idea. Fried Fish and Fries and Cocktail Sauce with so much sodium that I can feel the bloat in my fingers as I type.

    Le sigh,

    But I am liking the tracking daily, because I am seeing exactly what things are effecting and me and how.

  • minigrrll
    minigrrll Posts: 1,590 Member
    Yeah, tracking daily is super interesting... That kind of high sodium meal can take me around 3-4 days to recover from and lose the water weight. Super annoying, but at least you know it isn't real weight.

    Same here and that's why I weigh every day!

    I can easily gain 3-5 lbs eating really salty stuff. Drink lots of water and it will come off in a day or two (for me it seems to go faster if I hydrate a lot).

    Same - tons of water to flush it out.

    Day 11 of 21 - 185.2

    So much water was drank yesterday! I ate about 650 calories for dinner last night, I just really wasn't super starved.

    So the flushing advice has definitely worked out. I still have 3 days until the weekly weigh-in, which will be the morning after thanksgiving. I may just take Thursday's weight, but I am not sure.

    I am not planning on over doing it, and I will only eat once that day. I am not sure, I am still on the fence on this... I guess I'll just see how it comes out first.
