    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.

    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.

    Total Lost - 26.4 lbs lost

    Day 14 of 21 -

    I didn’t weigh this morning. I can feel the bloat and I didn’t want to be disappointed. I didn’t go overboard with the feast. I had one piece of pie. I had two glasses of wine and two glasses of champagne. I really believe that is what sent me into the bloat.
    The challenge now is that there is tons of pie in my house now!

    Have a great weekend!

    Looking at your table, we definitely had way too much food. Our set up looked like this, no way we could fit everything on the table.
