    @Chapter_3 THIS (Discipline is the strongest form of self love. It’s ignoring something you want right now for something better later on. Discipline reveals the commitment that you have to your dreams, especially on the days you don’t want to follow through…. The future you is depending on the current you to keep the promises you made to yourself yesterday.) is the most inspiring thing I've read in a long time! Thank you for sharing it with us!

    @Chapter_3 @UTMom81 Ditto!

    Half my weight in ounces of water is 111. That is a lot of water. About 3.3 fills of my one-liter bottle. I need to start early and budget some bathroom time for the day.

    It does seem like a lot of water but if you do it on increments I think it might be easier.

    Day/Weight/Comment
    03/06 …..177.8….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND

    03/07 -177.4- (Trend weight 178.7) I have been flirting around in the high 170’s for the past 4 Months. If you look at my spoiler above this post you will see that in the last 10 rounds I have lost 2.6 lbs but in the 10 rounds prior to that I lost 17.6 lbs. So I spent some time last night going back over my MFP food diary to those dates to see what I was doing/eating that helped facilitate the 17.6 lb loss. I found I was cooking more and relying less on processed or frozen foods. Because of that my sodium counts were half of what it has been lately indicating I am probably retaining more water also. I seemed to have at least two days per week that were very low calorie between 1000 and 1200 with the rest mainly meeting my goal of around 1400. On all days my carbs were staying in my range of 80 or under. My glucose numbers were getting in better control which affects fat storage big time. I have mentally noted some of the foods I was eating and will go back to some of those menus soon. Of course there are variables, like the fact that I was still taking a water pill every other day. Other medications were slightly different. Foodie holidays were included in the 2.6 block and the winter snowy weather affected my outside activity. This confuses things a bit, but I can clearly see a difference in my diet as well. I hope that by sharing all this it will encourage others when they reach a plateau (or are finding things difficult) to look back at those diaries on good days or months and remind yourself what was working in your diet or exercise routines. Logging is invaluable for the information it continues to provide. So…… I am happy to be typing in pink today because in many of the challenges lately I have started day one in a gain (blue) and end up just chasing my tail the whole round which is Not progress. Good luck everyone and Welcome to all the New Friends who are joining us this round. This is a safe, fun and informative place to be and I am so glad you are here!
