Track: Yes
Calories: under
Exercise: no...although I did spend 6 hours tidying and cleaning so I imagine that counts if unintentional!
Goals/Day/Comments: a good day! I'm still in my first week of adjusting my calorie intake so I'm definitely hungry. This historically has panicked me but I'm working through it. I'm making a concerted effort to drink the water I need (Ive never really done this before) and I'm really proud of myself for sticking with it! I have to use the loo alllllllll the time (😂) but I'm definitely feeling better for it!
It'll get easier Laura, yes increasing your water intake is very important on this new journey. For me the main thing is having a low carb drink on hand for when you stop eating for the day it calm those cravings at the end of the day. So I make a herbal ice tea with ¼ cup lemon juice and ½ cup of honey per 1 gallon.1 -

Well done for not letting the pain deter you from carrying on! X

@aadubb I fast every single day 18-24 hours and sometimes longer, as long as 48 hours, and I lift weights fasted with no issues, actually I prefer to do it that way, my mental clarity is better! I'd be interested in seeing how you like it overall..
@AB0215 The fast went well I think. Not sure if I was too lose weight but the scale didn't budge too much. I suppose the internal benefits of fasting will have to be enough. I struggle with weekend snacking so fasting on weekends might have to be the new thing because when I don't start to eat I'm just fine. I was burning ketones so that was good and I don't feel like gorging now so that's good. I really wasn't hungry at all. My belly was making noise but other than that nothing major happened. I ran 7k yesterday and went to the gym this morning, so my activity wasn't hindered at all. So overall good experience!2 -

Hey team 👋🏻
Just wondering if anyone has any tips on breaking through a plateau? For the past 10 days or so, my weight has been bouncing between 149.4 and 149.5...I feel like I’m in that film Groundhog Day 😆 If anyone has any tips or advice on how to get things moving again it would be much appreciated!
Thanks 🥰
Avril, sometimes you have to shake things up to break your plateau. That means eating more or less and changing up your exercise routine may do the trick. Hope this helps.
When I did Jenny Craig many years ago they used to put us on what they called the "break point" plan if we reached a plateau. It is basically a week of eating low calories one day and high calories the next day. If you typically eat 1200 calories a day you would eat 800 calories one day and 1600 calories the next on the break point menu. It was miserable but it usually worked.1 -

Looking forward to the week and what the scale brings. Hoping to end the week with a 2 to 3 pound loss. Need to stop the over-snacking, it's slowing me down. I need to stop the habitual replacement of healthier snacks like my fruits, with the starchy carbs on my allowed list. it's not good practice for lifestyle changes going forward.

It was a busy week last week work wise. I'm glad I was able to squeeze off another pound. I hope I never go above 200 again.
About 12 years ago (2017) I did a stupid thing and had gastric lap band surgery. I liked the idea of it because it was totally reversible, unlike the gastric bypass (the only other option at the time). What they didn't know at the time was that the thing doesn't work...it worked for about a month for me. Most clinics won't even perform that surgery now. The BIG problem is that the thing can slip or erode in your body causing major infections...resulting in the need for emergency surgery. I have a fear that this thing is starting to slip. I can barely eat heavy protein like chicken or steak now without throwing up. I barely ate about 3 oz of steak last night before I had to throw up. I couldn't even eat the vegetables I had prepared (very yummy sautéed squash, zucchini and onions). I also have really bad heartburn, which is another symptom. It's not really bad yet, but I so hate that I did this to myself so many years ago. I also have this fear that maybe that thing is maybe helping me in some way to lose weight....although my doctor assured me that it is not......that what I am doing now is all me. Just my normal fears and worries I guess.
Goals this month:
1. Lose 7 lbs
2. Continue to average walking 10,000 steps a day
