    August starting weight - 144.4 lbs
    August goal weight - 140 lbs
    Ultimate goal weight - 132 lbs

    8/01: 144.4
    8/05: 144.0
    8/12: 143.4

    Uhg, I've been exactly 143.4 lbs the last five days in a row! It's frustrating, but my diet has been all over the place so I should be thankful the weight is staying steady and not going up. Goal for this week is to get my eating back on track, and hopefully see the weight start trending down again!

    Boy was that detox a doozy! Won't be doing that until the beginning of next year, maybe. Any who....
    I did see a new number and I'm so happy! Unfortunately, now that I feel like I'm finally back in my element (keto) my body is slowing down to a halt! Pre-TOM. dun, dun, dun! Every woman is different but just before I start my body doesn't budge any weight-loss. Not one bit. After a 2hr hike today, usually I tend to lose a few ounces--but no--a complete standstill instead! *Sigh* Well, once Pre-TOM/TOM passes, then I should resume with the weight-loss results...Hopefully! Until then, I'll enjoy the victory I accomplished so far...God is good!

    ****New Low: 177.2!! yay!****

    OSW: Jan 2017 242 lbs
    SW August: 187 (water weight/salt/edema)
    8/3rd--7th Detox: -10 lb loss yay!

    August Goal: 175.8***

    @realgirl177 I feel you! I've been looking at the scale doing that this month too. Wondered if it was me, something wrong with scale, or some weird planetary alignment πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

    August Loss - ???

    Thoughts: I didn't get a chance to check in yesterday. Logged today's weight because I'm finally seeing a new low! No insight other than confirmation that the game plan works when I work it. "Stuck" is easier on the head than wild, inexplicable fluctuations.

    Now if I stay true to pattern, I'll see a bump up after the new low, then it will drop again. Might actually hit goal this month.

    August Game Plan & Goals: (Stats from Fitbit 7 Day Summary)
    • Continue weekly meal planning
    • Log daily in MFP - focus on daily calorie deficit goal of 500
    • No calorie intake after 8pm
    • Hit Fitbit step goal of 5000 - 3899 ⬆
    • Hit active minutes goal of 25 minutes daily - 33 ⬇
    • Hit exercise goal of 6 days - 4 βž–

    @bibi12378 Give it a few days. The uptick may be the result of eating DIFFERENT foods on Sunday as much as going over calories. Sodium, radically different macros, alchohol, exercise can all cause water retention and temporary weight gain!

    Very true. I just have to be patient :/ thanks!
