1/11 This week was not looking good. My weight jumped to 153.0lbs a few days ago. I switched back to a carefully counted low carb diet. ❤️
1/18 On Thursday, my weight dropped to 148.0lbs. I have Friday and Saturday off. We ate out a couple times and I made better choices than I normally do (poke bowl, almond chicken w/soup, spring roll and 1 cream cheese wonton). I am at 149.5lbs today. I am hoping to pop right back to 148lbs tomorrow. Keeping it low carb under 50 grams 💜
1/25 My weekend diet is causing significant fluctuations in my diet. I am mostly reaching my goals each Thursday. My goal for this week is to be very mindful of my diet over the weekend. I am going out of town on Friday so I will have to eat out for a meal or two. I am thinking a poke bowl and a seafood vegetable soup might be good choices. I would love to see 144.5lbs on the scale this Thursday but it would be fantastic to see that on a Monday weigh in! 🖤

I think I can do it!!

Man. If I at a whole cake, I would gain 5 pounds over night. 0.7 pounds isn’t too bad for al that! Your weight is still trending down.
I mix plain Greek yogurt into jello or just eat the Greek yogurt plain. I think it is a healthy choice!
I have to save peanut butter for the end of the day to ensure I have a few hundred extra calories to use up on it. It doesn’t happen often but I am happy when it does!

Maybe it was a little extra sodium or a few more carbs than last week? I get little spikes like that and then they are gone in a day or two.

I just checked my log and the sodium and carbs were within range. It might be because I didn’t drink as much water, I have that problem. I also think I didn’t exercise much last week.0 -

Hopefully your weigh in tomorrow is more like what you want. Maybe it is just water intake. Were your calories within range?

Yep, calories were within range (1200). My weight went down to 210 today, yay! All week it was 211 or 211.5. So that’s the right direction, going to see if it’s the exercise and drink more water.1 -
Hi! I'm new to MFP, but saw this group and wanted to join. Hope that's ok. I didn't weigh in the last two days, so I'm just going to start with what I weighed a few days ago at my hematology/oncology appointment. Trying to get back on keto and IF. It's been a struggle, especially with this "adrenal fatigue"....but I want so badly to get and feel healthy again. This is the heaviest I've been outside of pregnancy. Going from 93 lbs. in high school, to 115 lbs. in college, and then an acceptable weight of 121-125 lbs. post-pregnancy (for all three kids)....and then not being able to maintain it after last year has made me hate looking at my own reflection. I want to be able to take pictures with my family again, and not feel ashamed of how I look. I'm hoping being on MFP will help...

I don't know if I'll make it to 237 by 2/12, but I'm sure I can get to 242.8 by then, which is 10lbs from when I started up again most recently (11/13/2020 - 252.8 lbs), so I'll count that as a win.1 -

Any loss is a win! My scale weighs 1/8th pounds and even a 1/8th pound loss is very exciting to me!

Ugg it’s been 2 weeks and I have only lost 2 pounds. I was hoping things would move a bit faster but I’m remembering now that when I lost the weight last time it was about a pound a week. I started exercising a lot more starting yesterday and I’m interested to see what that does for me with my calorie deficit. I’m hoping to see another pound off by next week, tier 2 goal being 2 pounds. The evening/night is the worst for me, that is when I’m most likely to scarf down junk. When I feel that coming on, I find that drinking a bottle of water slows me down. It makes me feel full so the urge to overeat goes away enough for me to be able to make a better choice in food.1 -

This week's peanut butter intake was in control. Only had one sandwich. But the greek yogurt is too good!
My calories haven't been consistent. Some days I eat too little and other days I eat alot. On average I ate 100 cals below my bmr caloric needs.
I know I have it in me to go harder. I feel like if I start working out the results will come by faster
