02/22: 311.00 (-4.5) - New low, always nice! Bit surprised actually, triple checked. Due to this bad cold I'm still only making sure I come in under maintainance. Came in with a decent defecit yesterday though, so we'll see. Basically working on this week being steady. I always struggle when ill to not overeat, maintainance seems a good compromise. I updated my goals again recently, so my calorie goal changes, dropped by 50 a day. I think updating regularly so it's only small drops will be best so I'm not feeling like it's getting more restrictive in larger amounts.

I think limiting it to small drops is a really good idea. It's so important that our brains don't start deciding that it's so restrictive that we can't possibly succeed. You got this!

A foot injury and work on 2 new projects has made exercise and healthy food choices a real challenge this month. Round Goals are to get my logging, water intake and carb cravings back under control!!, stretch 2x daily, and exercise 45+ minutes 7 of next 10 days.

Day/Weight/Comment
02/22 ~ 215.2 is a nice start, but realize self-control is @ all time low, so no dining out or drinking allowed this weekend. Good luck everyone!

Round 69 – 161.4

I’ve been bopping around in the low 160’s for months. Last round I worked on getting my head in a different space as far as eating (trying to look at portions as I would have in my 20’s – i.e. much smaller is plenty) and upping my exercise. My gym exercise is about the same but I’m trying to not allow myself to just sit doing crafts, computer or reading without breaking it up with some movement.

2/22 - 315.8 - This was nice to see. And I have been sticking to my weighing plan. I’m still a little stressed from the other night; it kinda triggered my PTSD. BUT I am calmer this afternoon. Food has still been good; it’s just been more of a struggle.

Took a 10 day hiatus from tracking and logging. Gained a total of 12 pounds in those 10 days! I weighed 147.7 before leaving on vacation and came back and weighted 159.9. I almost cried, but I didn't. I knew it was mostly water weight and carbs and it should come off fairly quickly. I am not setting any goals for this round except to get back to 147.xx. The last couple of weeks have been extremely stressful, fun, amazing, exciting, and scary all wrapped up in to 1 box. Vacation was amazing, but my older kids had stuff going on at home that we were having to deal with so it made things a lot more hectic this year. I'm ready to get back down and start losing again. 10 days! 10 days!

02/22 - 151.2 so I'm still going in the right direction. I have lost 8.7 pounds since Monday. I have another 3.5 to go just to get back to where I was 2 weeks ago. Hopefully this weekend I can stay strong and on track. I would like to be back in the 140's by Monday, but of course this weekend is jam packed with all kinds of stuff to do. Fingers crossed I will make wise and healthy choices.

What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.

This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.
