The expected small gain was smaller than expected. I will consider that a win.
Walked alot on Saturday but ate more than planned all three days. But not extreme amounts.
I am pleased with my January progress and hoping to keep losing weight in February.

I am frantically working to turn this ship around and actually had an overnight drop this morning. It’s a big boat so I’ve got to be patient but it’s beginning to turn. I am aiming for a two pound loss this week when I usually aim for one. Focus, Focus, Focus.
01/29-181.6-(Trend Weight: 183.2)- I worked hard for this drop, often going to bed hungry. When I get off track the cravings begin full-force again and the hunger on the restarts are horrible. I wish I would remember those repercussions when I’m making the bad decisions to stuff the wrong things into my piehole. In the meantime, I’m grateful for the 2.6 lb drop this week.

January 8: 206 I did great all week until the weekend and then overate yesterday. Disappointing! The first anniversary of my DH death is coming up on March 9. This month marks his rapid decline. Many memories and most are sad and unpleasant.
January 15: 206.8
January 22: 206.8 Went up last week and stayed the same, now to bring it down. My special needs daughter had lithotripsy (sound waves) to remove a kidney stone yesterday. It's been a very stressful last few days with that and freezing rain that made driving to the hospital very tricky.
January 29: 205.6 I haven’t felt the best this week with suffering vertigo from BPPV. Still managed a loss. Only lost .4 for the month but at least the number is down and not up.

Challenge final weight:
I didn't make my weight loss goal this month, but I'm very happy with my results. Had to make some adjustments, after realizing that I was inadvertently over-training and under-eating. This had led to my weight loss happening too fast for what's considered healthy, AND me feeling exhausted/unmotivated/cranky/constantly hungry.
For the first time EVER during a weight loss effort, I didn't just throw in the towel when things got a bit out of whack... but instead I looked at all the data and info I've accumulated over the past months (food log, weight log, exercise and other health data from my Apple Watch, medical weight loss advice). Then I figured out what needed to change.
I took some time off from exercising (because, as I now know, adequate rest is an important part of exercising). I increased my daily calories and adjusted my macros. I added in an iron supplement (don't do this without blood work evidence that you are actually iron deficient or anemic; and talk to your doctor!). I'm feeling much better and the weight has started to move again, and I'm excited for the next part of my journey.
For anyone here who wants to learn more about weight loss in a supportive environment, please come check out the Ultimate Accountability Challenge. This group has been absolutely instrumental to my success: after years, no, decades of yo-yoing, I'm now down 70 lbs (since June 27 last year) and I feel so much better in every way. I'm never going back to my previous lifestyle.
Hope to see you all in the February 2024 Weight Loss Challenge! Onward and downward!

CHALLENGE TOTAL WEIGHT LOSS GOAL: Total Loss of 12 pounds to land at 171.8
CHALLENGE ENDING WEIGHT:
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
250’s; 240’s; 230’s; 220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180’s; 170's; 160's; 150’s
Weight in blue makes me blue because it’s a gain. Weight in fuchsia pink makes me feel cheery because it’s a loss. Weight in black means no change.

01/31-181.6-(Trend Weight: 182.9)- I am happy for the 2.2 lb loss in January, but it is only a small step toward getting back to my pre-Christmas weight. I am confident that I can reach back to the 177’s in February if I just apply myself in the same way that I do to so many other things in my life. Hope. Always Hope.
Jan Start: 183.8
Jan Goal: 179.8 (4 pound loss)
Jan Actual: 181.6
Cumulative Weight Loss so Far: 2.2 lb loss
02/01-183.4-(Trend Weight: 183.0)- WTH? I did NOT expect this. Could it be the travel & restaurant from two days ago? Could it be the birthday celebration complete with cake/ice cream catching up? Could it be day 2 of no TMI? Could it be the worst sleep last night that I’ve had in years? Maybe it’s all one big ball of wax (or fat) all rolled up into one. In any case, I feel cheated when I probably shouldn’t. Looks like I’ll be spending much of this month chasing my own tail.

February is going to be fun for me. Looking forward to celebrating three different milestones:- 0.1 lb away: complete my first 70 lbs of weight loss (possibly by tomorrow!).
- 1.1 lb away: reach Onederland.
- 4 lbs away: dropping below BMI of 35 to land in the garden-variety obesity category (currently I'm considered extremely obese).
No exceptions. No excuses. 🥑

MY CHALLENGE STARTING WEIGHT FOR THIS CHALLENGE:150
MY CHALLENGE WEIGHT LOSS GOAL:140
Last time I had challenged myself to eat at restaurants only for social activities, not alone, and then just an appetizer and drink. I lost 4 pounds. So I am going to continue this, and add another challenge. 2 bean dishes per week at home. 1 bean soup recipe and vegetarian pasta and peas...every week!
January 1:150
January 8:151
January 15:Back to 149..Beans!
January 22:?
January 29: ?
Feb 2: Back to 151! 🥲
So the bean dishes are tasty & have been really good for my wallet. I have been getting entrees à la carte like one taco or a sandwich without a side instead of appetizers as sometimes that is the healthier option.
I refuse to suffer just to lose 10 pounds! I'm brainstorming again to think of some sort of tweak to cut calories enough to start losing weight..I did just discover the smart bmi website, which puts 144 as a healthy weight for me. That made me feel a lot better!5 -
