I am out of the March winners' circle ...
Something about Mondays this past month .... only one Well Done Monday out of 4 this month, and the day before yesterday was the worst yet. It was also unusually high on fats and starchy-carbs, while lower-than usual on protein for the second day in a row (and that was barely JUST in the Green for total pre-exercise calories before evening munchies hit) .... which explains a lot ....
Something about knowing that I am "Declaring Maintenance" as of April 1 no matter what, combined with MFP taking away that last 10 calories, which put me at 1200 even per day for this final week ... while knowing that I have to start figuring out how to handle systematically phasing IN extra calories (~ an extra 30 per meal to start) AND eat back ALL my exercise calories (which I don't usually do) starting next week.
And making a switch in my usual exercise choice is being psychologically harder than expected ... and my hubby LIKES (and will miss) hearing the old soundtrack for the previous-length stretches .... and I am switching up for calorie-burning efficiency reasons that will challenge me (as well as picking something I know will be fun for me once I get into it) not because I feel bored or dissatisfied with what I have been doing .... for years now ....
On the other hand .... thanks to UAC, one day is only one day, and yesterday was right on track. Started with a proper protein-rich breakfast (eggs with cheese) and didn't bother with the theater popcorn, which I now find way too salty/greasy, even BEFORE the "buttery topping" (which really isn't butter any more) is added.6 -

I logged everything until dinner when it became difficult and I gave up. I'm pretty sure I was over calories today though. No exercise thanks to a 12 hour work day and a headache all day long. Tomorrow I will drive to work early so I can run along the beachfront before the day starts and ask my food is already planned! By the start of the new month, I should be back on track!3
