5. Trigger foods- well I've counted this as no sweets or sugar and didn't realize until 3 hours later that I put sugar in my coffee away from home. Not horrible but I was bummed as it's my first time breaking it in over a month. I was also trying no dairy this week which is just not having Greek yogurt or yogurt-based dressing so I wasn't thinking and used half-and-half, stupid coffee habit! I spaced it and had vegetarian pizza for dinner too. On a better note, I dealt with chocolate chip cookie dough scooping and resisted fresh baked cookies. I have an awful headache and haven't had "white" or simple carbs since September and don't feel very well, my body isn't happy.
One thing I found that has helped with going no dairy is coconut milk. I use it and honey in my morning coffee.

Monday weigh-in
Last week- 123
This week- 126
Stinking pizza! I woke up sick so the headache is from that. I'll miss the gym but will at least use the recumbent bike for half an hour, I have trouble sleeping when I don't work out.
@mrmcgrath one of the only fruits I dislike is coconut, I wish I liked it for so many reasons! I've read Kite Hill is good but haven't come across it yet. I shop mostly at discount grocery stores and Trader Joe's so that's probably why. Thank you for your recommendation!
@Wishusdonna Sounds like aside of a challenging night good came from it with the talk you and your husband had.
@nbbaby one pound isn't bad at all, if you're eating more carbs it could be water. Good luck on eating better, you got this!1 -
Hi @Katmary71 - I am one of the moderators, and I stop by all the teams to see how things are going. I felt inspired to answer this question. I have been in a maintenance range for several years now, and I strongly encourage you to keep weighing in every week, especially if you are not completely happy with the range you are hitting right now. When I have tried going onto the support team ("cheer squad") where my weigh-ins don't count, I have usually gained a bit. Being on the regular team and committed to the team's stats is a small, but helpful encouragement to stay where you are, or go down just a touch more and see what it is like. Loss is SO slow when you are at your goal range, but it is also easy to bounce back up. So my vote would be for you to stay on the regular team and weigh in for a while longer. Try the cheer squad in a month or two just to see how that goes for you. But keep visiting the team and keeping up your commitment! Well done!!!Thank you all for the congratulations on the weigh-in board, I'm not trying to lose weight anymore but stay within 5lbs and start adding calories back. I'm bouncing in a higher range than I'd prefer while upping calories so I'm kind of stumbling around maintaining now. Should I still do weekly weigh-ins?1 -

check-in Monday
Steps: 11/16 13,769 - and 11/17 13,095
Calories: under - and not into the exercise! (finally!)
Hydration: on target
Exercise: getting better - using the treadmill inside 2x a day whilst it's cold and rainy
Logging: logging is key - I guess if I don't want to see it in print, I shouldn't eat it
Remember the good, be the good, encourage others on their journey
I'm very happy to say that I am getting there with the routine - takes a while once I am off-kilter. I don't beat myself up but I also cannot just ride the wave like a seagull. Gotta duck dive and then when I come back up for air - give it all I've got to get on it and ride the energy with effort and intention. =>1 -

Tuesday Check in:
Calories: under, net carbs 19
Water: over
Exercise: 15-minute cardio walk on the treadmill and 15-minute cardio workout program
I've suspended my 80 Day Obsession because my Beachbody group is doing another one called The Shift Shop for the next four weeks. I don't really care as long as I can get a good workout in, which this new one certainly does.

@hinemoa2088 wow, those steps!
@mrmcgrath thank you! I've read good things about that podcast on the forums and keep forgetting to check it out, I will now!
@its_cleo Tough mudders are supposed to be even harder! I can't run because of nerve damage in my leg but it's hard not to get fired up after watching today, it's my second time going to one this year. Ya know, we should both sign up for one around 6 months away and cheer each other on! Then we'd have enough time to get in shape for them. Great weight loss! Your gym sounds like a lot of fun. Ouch, I hope your finger heals quickly!
@apple852hk great loss, keep up the positive changes!
@AustinRuadhain how did the scout events go? Boy, snickerdoodles would be tough to resist, I love all the "fall" spices and would be struggling!
@Kres567 how is the water drinking going?
Thank you all for the congratulations on the weigh-in board, I'm not trying to lose weight anymore but stay within 5lbs and start adding calories back. I'm bouncing in a higher range than I'd prefer while upping calories so I'm kind of stumbling around maintaining now. Should I still do weekly weigh-ins?
It’s improving - thanks for asking @Katmary71! Yesterday I had over 60 oz of water at work and more at home. Tot day not as much but I will make up for it tonight!1 -
