Thanks, everyone!
No movement today, but I have a good feeling about seeing the 140s tomorrow. Not sure why, but I just feel hopeful
@tlblanksfit come in here and make my prediction for tomorrow!

Tomorrow's prediction 148.91

WOW! I am claiming that prediction! That would be amazing, and I would only be a couple of pounds from pre-Christmas weight if I hit that!0

I hope you see the 140's tomorrow

Ah, the fight is on once again! Woke up at 150.8 today, but I am not upset at all. I shed 7.2 "pounds" in a week and only have 4.6 to go to hit pre-holiday weight. With the way I was eating, I wouldn't be surprised if most of those pounds are actual fat that I need to get back off, which I know will take longer. I don't mind. Giving myself until June has really helped my mindset because I know that I don't even have to lose an entire pound each week to reach my goal. I definitely don't plan on taking that long, but it does remove a lot of the frustration of "smaller" loss days like yesterday (-0) or today (-.4).
I planned to do more resistance training today per my original plan, but my body said "absolutely not!" when I woke up this morning, so I will be practicing yoga instead. I think I will follow this from now on: resistance and HIIT during the week and yoga on the weekends. I will just do longer full-body resistance workouts since I will only be doing them twice a week.
Happy Saturday, everyone!0 -
Aww man I was off but still congratulations on the 7 pound loss for the week which is awesome.1
-
Hahaha! No worries, Tracey -- you will get it right next time! It's my body fighting me to get below 150, but I will win! I am happy being much closer, and I am sure your positive energy helped! 0

That meal looks good! Is it home made?
Good luck with getting to below 150 tomorrow. I'm sure you'll get there if not tomorrow, the next few days.0 -
You're a good cook Britt! Everything always looks good and there's a lot of variety. Good luck tomorrow but like Jeanona said...it WILL come 0
-
@jeanona @katjustkat: thank you so much! I absolutely love cooking, and I have the time to actually make something different everyday while I'm still on break, which I prefer because I like variety and it's fresher-tasting. It is rice ramen noodles with a fish, seaweed, and miso broth (broth was made in the instant pot), and then I sautéed shrimp, peppers, and onions to put on top.
I actually hit 150.2 today
, but I'm not really upset and kind of expected it. I really wasn't hungry yesterday because I was super inactive minus my yoga session, but I ate anyway to stick to my plan when I should've just listened to my body. I easily could've fasted until today. I actually look visibly different already though, so I am okay with a plateau or small gain like this as long as the scale starts moving back down soon. I really just want to never see the 150s again. My clothes fit better and my stomach is much flatter today at 150 than when I was ~145 10 years ago, so even if I don't hit 135, I will probably be satisfied at a higher number (as long as it's below 150!!!!). But we'll see how it goes. I made a tiny adjustment of having a protein shake right after HIIT today, and I will eat in a couple of hours. I will see if that that makes any difference this week. If I don't see movement by my weigh-in on Thursday, I will see if there are other adjustments that can be made. 0 -

If I hadn't read your post, I would have thought that was shrimp and grits. It certainly looks delicious.0
