    @kellyswimmer Have you considered a temporary dietary curveball to get the scale moving again? Something like...skip a meal, have a brunch instead, larger breakfast/small dinner, or vice versa, don't have any meals for a day and just snack instead, do your exercise routine backwards, do half a routine, or double, ..., something to change the routine? Just a thought.

    I began with goal of 80 pounds to lose, now have 50 more to go. This was my first day of 'negative' since Jan 17.
    I will return to sanity tomorrow.

    March 1 169.8-171 today. Lovely sunshine but cold. Within cal goals and exercised.
    March 2 168.9 Warmer today - going outside to work in yard.
    March 3 Official weigh-in 168.8 on their scale whoop!
    March 4 weighed early, scale said 165.8 however had not drank, eaten, and now I am stuffed.
    March 5 scale is in a snit and suggesting I am up to 167.4. Ate high sugar today so must repent, going to Y pool and have 'gardened' today.
    March 6 166.0 scale loves me, also checked at Y where scale just weighs whoever 168.

    Goal March 32 - 165 pounds anything. I will stay with cals everyday and exercise daily. EXCEPT ... son's birthday. Over 300 in calories unless you give credit for exercise. I will draw back these next 4 days, drink much more to get excess salt out of system. Hope everyone is well here.

    Starting weight 15st 8.5
    Start weight this month 14st 1.3
    Goal weight this month (amended) 13st 9.3 (initial 13st 13)
    Target goal weight 11st 0

    Started 9th Nov. 
    Nov lost: 10.4lb
    Dec lost: 7.7lb
    Jan lost: 9.1lb
    Feb GAIN: 6lb (bereavement/quit smoking)

    1 Mar - 14st 1.3 (+/-0)
    2 Mar - 14st 1.5 (+0.2lb) - not the right direction!
    3 Mar - 14st 0.4 (-1.1lb/-0.9lb) 😀
    4 Mar - 13st 13.4 (-1.0lb/-1.9lb) Yay! Under 14st!  Hoping I can keep the motivation up to continue this month.
    5 Mar 13st 12.3 (-1.1lb/-3.0lb) I had put on weight quickly at the end of February, so figuring mush of this recent loss is water, but it is good to see the scale go down :-)
    6 Mar 13st 12.0 (-0.3lb/-3.3lb) quite unexpectedly, I have stuck at this so far in March - and have hit my initial goal, so I am amending my goal to be a total of 6lb loss - which is what I gain in Feb.
    7 Mar 13st 12.5 (+0.5lb/-2.8lb)

    Hey, all! Read that some have sunshine, technically so does Tidewater Virginia but we also have cold temp and cutting wind. I might be trying to drop about 49 pounds today -- well, as a goal, not all in this 1 day although I am open to , , , I am being remorseful for yesterday's binge eating.

    March 1 169.8-171 today. Lovely sunshine but cold. Within cal goals and exercised.
    March 2 168.9 Warmer today - going outside to work in yard.
    March 3 Official weigh-in 168.8 on their scale whoop!
    March 4 weighed early, scale said 165.8 however had not drank, eaten, and now I am stuffed.
    March 5 scale is in a snit and suggesting I am up to 167.4. Ate high sugar today so must repent, going to Y pool and have 'gardened' today.
    March 6 166.0 scale loves me, also checked at Y where scale just weighs whoever 168.
    March 7 afraid of scale 167.8 will drink now and psychically imagine salt and excess fat cells disappearing.

    Goal March 32 - 165 pounds anything. I will stay with cals everyday and exercise daily. EXCEPT ... son's birthday. I am hoping Friday's whump disappears quickly. Send heat here!

    Starting weight 15st 8.5
    Start weight this month 14st 1.3
    Goal weight this month (amended) 13st 9.3 (initial 13st 13)
    Target goal weight 11st 0

    Started 9th Nov. 
    Nov lost: 10.4lb
    Dec lost: 7.7lb
    Jan lost: 9.1lb
    Feb GAIN: 6lb (bereavement/quit smoking)

    1 Mar - 14st 1.3 (+/-0)
    2 Mar - 14st 1.5 (+0.2lb) - not the right direction!
    3 Mar - 14st 0.4 (-1.1lb/-0.9lb) 😀
    4 Mar - 13st 13.4 (-1.0lb/-1.9lb) Yay! Under 14st!  Hoping I can keep the motivation up to continue this month.
    5 Mar 13st 12.3 (-1.1lb/-3.0lb) I had put on weight quickly at the end of February, so figuring mush of this recent loss is water, but it is good to see the scale go down :-)
    6 Mar 13st 12.0 (-0.3lb/-3.3lb) quite unexpectedly, I have stuck at this so far in March - and have hit my initial goal, so I am amending my goal to be a total of 6lb loss - which is what I gain in Feb.
    7 Mar 13st 12.5 (+0.5lb/-2.8lb)
    8 Mar 13st 12.8 (+0.3lb/-2.5lb) I was bad last night - went way over calories and did not track.  Back on plan today, but I expect the scale will not be good to me tomorrow!
