11–210.8…my son and daughter have been home spending time with Nova on their spring break. It has been so nice hanging out with them. I’ve been taking a break from logging and the scale is starting a slow creep, so it’s time to get back to basics.

I also went to my Doctor appointment my A1c 6.8🙂it was down another point today. My kidney function was better this time he said everything else was lower this time he said I'm doing better than what I thought I was doing come back in six months. My new goal 7000 steps a day it was 5000. I've hit 3 days this week so far. It won't show on journal because my fitness watch isn't available on MFP.
Congratulations @Buckeyebabe717 for your good blood work today. I also like your plan you made for yourself. You all was talking about alcoholics and foodaholics well I'm sweet alcoholic that's the hardest thing for me I do good for a few days then I'm right back eating them my family is no help so I'm going to have be stronger and not let my guard down.
@ BittersweetVita I'm sorry to see your family going through so much praying for you and family and your friends family.

I'm starting to think I should decrease my calorie intake.
What do you guys think? Advise, please.
@YCorG Someone on one of my challenges mentioned the zig zag diet when they have plateaued. I did some research when I read their post and I'm sorry I don't remember which website I used to formulate the following plan. I did take their numbers and pipe in my own "normal" calorie plan when dieting on day One (Mon) day 4 (Thur) and day 7 (Sun) exactly the way the website did. Then I changed up or down the calories on the other days Exactly the way they had done on the website. This was the how the plan played out for me:
Monday 1400 Calories (normal)
Tuesday 1050 Calories
Wednesday 1600 Calories
Thursday 1400 Calories (normal)
Friday 1275 Calories
Saturday 1520 Calories
Sunday 1400 Calories (normal)
If you are watching carbs, I also figured those out too. Just let me know if you need my pattern on them.
As you can see, it's not a drastic change that should allow anymore than an uptick (if even that) on the higher days. But it is specifically designed to help break that stall and "trick" the body's metabolism into getting things moving again. It is probably only useful when it's a true plateau that has been lasting for at least 2 weeks or more. I would follow it for at least one full week.
I have not tried it yet. But if I found myself in your place right now, I definitely would. I do have a cheat day or shake-it-up day (like I did yesterday) from time to time. I usually use a travel day or a special occasion day to eat what I want to "trick my metabolism". However, I like the idea that the pattern above does still put a limit or cap on the calories so there is no major fallout from it.
It may be worth a try. If you do try it, let us know how it is working for you, especially in the weeks to come.3 -

03/15-188.8-(Trend Weight 191.0)-
03/16-188.8-(Trend Weight 190.8)- No scale change. Another late dinner like most have been the past few days. Dinner at 10:00 pm and snacks at midnight. This is becoming a problem with the scale a bit, I think. Problem is that I’m just not hungry earlier and I don’t like to eat when I’m not hungry. I’ve got to start my first meal earlier which will interrupt my IF a little sooner, but it’s the only thing I can think of. I may also lighten up my first meal, but I’m already running under calorie so I just dunno. I’ll throw this up in the air, spin it around and see what comes out this weekend. Today I travel for my cardiac rehab. I do like that the trend weight is still going downward, noticing my calorie and carb cuts and recognizing both my exercise and my determination.
03/17-DNW-(Trend Weight DNW)- I traveled yesterday for cardiac rehab (2 hours of class) which was mainly a lot of sitting and educational training yesterday. Because I always shop when out of town and eat at a restaurant for lunch which usually puts me over my goals, I made a conscious and deliberate decision to have a “shake it up” day. I don’t dare look at the scale today because I don’t want to be discouraged. However, in the coming days I hope it will get things moving in the right direction again since I had a couple of days that did not make sense. Hopefully this will trick my metabolism which feels like it’s really slowed down. This isn’t my first rodeo and I have to do this from time to time. Sometimes a couple of times per month. Today I will be back to my normal lifestyle choices and keeping my glucose levels normal. I will push water.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!
I am celebrating with two of my grandkids who are spending the night while mommy and daddy go out with friends for some fun adult time. It's been kid central all day so I will be BEAT by the time bedtime rolls around. I didn't have anytime to walk but I haven't been sitting around all day either.
Have fun and be safe out there tonight!3 -
I also went to my Doctor appointment my A1c 6.8🙂it was down another point today. My kidney function was better this time he said everything else was lower this time he said I'm doing better than what I thought I was doing come back in six months. My new goal 7000 steps a day it was 5000. I've hit 3 days this week so far. It won't show on journal because my fitness watch isn't available on MFP.
Congratulations @Buckeyebabe717 for your good blood work today. I also like your plan you made for yourself. You all was talking about alcoholics and foodaholics well I'm sweet alcoholic that's the hardest thing for me I do good for a few days then I'm right back eating them my family is no help so I'm going to have be stronger and not let my guard down.
Awesome news on your improvements! I probably need to try and up my walking to 7 days a week. Last time I lost weight I was a walking fiend but this time it's much more of a chore. Your new goal for steps will motivate me to up my game!
My husband is a "sweetaholic" too! He cannot stay away from anything sweet. Luckily I do not have that problem or I'd be in real trouble because he HAS to have sweets in the house. My weakness is cheese!
Happy St. Patrick's Day!!!3 -

My name is Donna. I am 5’ 5” tall, 62 years old and from the Michigan USA. In 2016 I weighed 253 lbs. I am on a journey of health and to get back to the real me.

03/17-DNW-(Trend Weight DNW)- I traveled yesterday for cardiac rehab (2 hours of class) which was mainly a lot of sitting and educational training yesterday. Because I always shop when out of town and eat at a restaurant for lunch which usually puts me over my goals, I made a conscious and deliberate decision to have a “shake it up” day. I don’t dare look at the scale today because I don’t want to be discouraged. However, in the coming days I hope it will get things moving in the right direction again since I had a couple of days that did not make sense. Hopefully this will trick my metabolism which feels like it’s really slowed down. This isn’t my first rodeo and I have to do this from time to time. Sometimes a couple of times per month. Today I will be back to my normal lifestyle choices and keeping my glucose levels normal. I will push water.
03/18-189.0-(Trend Weight 190.7)- I’m very happy to see that my scale weight is only up 0.2 since my last weigh-in before my “shake it up a bit” day of higher calories and carbs. I must admit I was extra mindful afterward yesterday, but no exercise except to chase my DGS while babysitting all day. He will be back today so I will definitely get in those flights of stairs, if nothing else. Today will be a normal disciplined day of following my plan.

Hi, everyone! I am a 45 year-old female. I am 5'4" married with four kids and a new full-time job since January. Physically, I am a two-time cancer survivor, I have Hypothyroidism, and Plantar Fasciitis. I struggle with planning meals, overindulging in carbs, not finding time to exercise, and being consistent, but I have a good heart and am always grateful for every moment I have, even the frustrated ones. Lol!

I am also happy to see everyone's wins, whether is is a couple pounds down or percentages down when it comes down to what is happening on the inside of your body. Have a great week!3 -

19 172.3 bet you are wondering what happened the past 11 days. Well, me too. I was doing great and then one thing lead to another and then we had a snow storm and no power for 3 days which meant I ate out a lot and blah blah blah. Yesterday, I went for a walk outside, it was beautiful out, logged my foods, drank my water. I find that I am either all in to my journey or I have a f—— it attitude.
I am open to suggestions or ideas that you used to stay committed and accountable to yourself.

I’m also very pleased with my progress on my trend weight. I travel tomorrow to the land of restaurants and donut shops again for my rehab, Dear Lord, keep me strong! Next Saturday is a big birthday Bash for my DGS. There will be enough temptation there! A couple of days ago I lowered my carbs by 10 more. It has been a bit gradual. It’s starting to pinch a little!
