    2/3 149.4 Lots of walking on a gorgeous day! I SO enjoyed yesterday!!! Supposed to be beautiful again today, so let's see what I can get into!
    2/4 149.8 Another spectacular false-spring day here in east TN. Went to the park for a long walk, then played outside with the grandkids after picking them up from school. Can’t beat a day like that in early February! I am so grateful for the reprieve from the cold, damp, and gray! I know it won’t last, but I’m going to enjoy it. Today I will focus on lowering my carbs again. I have let them sneak up since being sick last round. Time to squash that unhealthy trend.
    2/5 150 I really think this is just because I am finally feeling better now and am eating normally again. I did well with my diet and got in lots of walking on another really beautiful day! We did go out to eat last night and although careful with what I ate, there’s always the salt factor. I want to get back in the 140s, so I’ll be even more careful today.
    2/6 149.2 Two really good walks yesterday, one at church before Bible Study then another in the afternoon around the neighborhood. I have gotten carbs back where they need to be and protein back up, so hopefully I can continue to lose a little more before the end of the round. I’ll do well to just get back to where I started this round, if that is even possible. But considering I was still a bit sick at the start of the round, I’ll take that as a win if I can make it happen. Headed to the gym today for a bit of strength training and a class. Then I get to spend some time with my DGS this afternoon. Should be a good day!

    2/06 - 168.2 - I'm not entirely sure why I'm up. Maybe DOMS? I did have my hardest workout of the week yesterday morning and I'm definitely feeling it today. Food was good yesterday and I'm planned out for today, minus a couple snacks (again, battling the low carb issue I have been all week). Tomorrow I'll be grocery shopping and coming up with a good dinner to make for when BF gets home. I will be improvising lunch and dinner so, hopefully, I won't be dealing with the single macro issues I have all week. Feeling pretty good about this going forward.

    Previous Day's Comments
    1/31 - TOM showed up this morning a bit unexpectedly. This is okay, I figured it was going to arrive sooner than my app had estimated and I was right listening to my body. Hopefully this means some extra bloating will drop off in the coming days. I'm not holding my breath given it is a weekend and BF is coming home tonight. We're postponing date night to tomorrow since he'll be arriving home so late due to rush hour traffic being unavoidable and I know he just wants to get home. I'll make something tonight that's healthy and balanced for us both. All else is going well, though! I need to make a meal plan for next week so I can grab groceries tomorrow so I'll start on that here shortly since work is over.
    2/01 - As expected, a nice drop now TOM's arrived. Today is a bit up in the air with food as we postponed date night to today since the Man arrived home so late from training last night and just wanted to relax at home. It's lunch but he has some errands he'd like to run so I'm not sure if we'll eat out or grab something at home before heading out. I'll do my best to eat sensibly regardless. Also need to squeeze in a walk with the dogs at some point today, particularly now that it's nice and sunny and it's warming up quite a bit.
    2/02 - DNP
    2/03 - Ouch. Not without reason, though. BF was home this weekend and I only got about a day and a half to spend with him. We ended up having lunch and dinner out Saturday (lunch was reasonable, dinner was pizza). Due to meal prep and my kitchen being a bit overcrowded with that, I ended up splitting the rest of the leftover pizza with BF for lunch Sunday. Dinner was very early (3pm compared to our normal 5-6pm) so I was quite hungry before bed and ate again. I was in my emotions from BF being gone another week so I didn't make the best choices. Fortunately, during the work week I have routine to keep me in check. He's gone this week and next week so I'll only have 1 more weekend that routine will be disrupted. I know now, though, so hopefully next weekend won't be so challenging to get through and I can avoid a mini-binge. Managed the gym this morning despite feeling rather bleh about the whole binge and, honestly, feeling a bit ill from it, too. I'm glad I went, though, and I know I'll feel better for it in short order. Here's to progress and learning!
    2/04 - This is better. Not perfect but I knew it would take a couple days of diligently following my macros, water, and movement to drop it back down. Gym this morning again and meals planned for the day. Once again, I'm short by quite a bit on carbs and a little on fat. I'm within my buffer for protein so I have very limited wiggle room there to help me get the other 2 macros up. I figured out my binge problem as I faced something similar yesterday - I'm bored and lonely! I realized that if I kept myself thoroughly engaged in something, I wasn't particularly hungry. But when I wasn't fully distracted by tasks, I found myself constantly seeking carbs or sugar. What really made me notice was the fact that 10 minutes after eating a very filling and balanced meal, I was searching my pantry and fridge for something carby and had a moment of "I just ate and was quite satisfied, there's no way I'm hungry 10 minutes later, this is something else" and I forced myself to go sit on the couch and read. Once I was into the book, I was fine. Well, then. The goal, now, is to stay distracted in the evenings once work is over.
    2/05 - Another nice drop after behaving myself well yesterday. Next week I really need to meal plan better so I'm not excessively short on carbs but meeting everything else. It's been a struggle to find whole foods and not junk to fill so much of a gap (I'm between 50-60g shy on carbs everyday this week with breakfast. lunch, and dinner logged, today included. Other than snacks for carbs (with a small wiggle room for protein), I'm set for today. Gym was good and all other habits have been good! I've decided that after I finish with Coach, I'm going to drop to maintenance for a couple weeks and then start a small cut.

    @Skyleen75 :
    I find barre class to be brutal, all of those tiny little movements. But I love anything where I get to laser focus on form. It’s a good balance to other workouts.

    Agree about barre- it's brutal, but the good kind- I always dread going and feel better when I"ve done it!

    I’m so envious of you “girls” doing barre classes. I would love to have one to try, The closest I get is putting my foot on the bathroom counter to dry my leg after I shower!

    02/05-DNW-(Trend Weight: DNW)- I woke up late and hit the floor running with the contractors at my door trying to get in and work. No thought to weigh, only to get dressed and get the coffee going. I’m feeling bloated and pudgy. I’m sure there has been no improvement on the scale.

    02/06-194.8-(Trend Weight: 192.9)- Well, the oatmeal experiment didn’t work to satisfy the night time snack monster. I even tried a double helping so I’ll scratch that idea, at least for now. I tried soup for dinner hoping the liquid would help keep me satisfied. Nope. Later dinners, late protein, late fiber, extra water, a book, nothing so far is working. Maybe when I’m more in control some of these ideas will work? I’m not going to give up. Sometimes these bad times just seem to pass the same way they mysteriously arrive. I’m waiting it out! I’ll win this staring contest if it kills me!

    We ALL have good rounds and bad but that is part of life. Don’t stay away, stay accountable. We don’t judge, we support.-Jpv,2/13/19

    What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.

    We are unstoppable not because we do not have failures but because we continue on despite them. - paraphrase of original quote by Beau Taplin

    Up and down - just riding the waves of life. 🌊 🏄‍♀️ (My new mantra-3/19/22)

    JamesClear “New goals don't deliver new results. New lifestyles do. And a lifestyle is a process, not an outcome. For this reason, all of your energy should go into building better habits, not chasing better results.”

    This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

    I need to STAY ENGAGED because I’m the DRIVER not the passenger in this life.

    Fell off the challenge bandwagon in round 256, managed to keep losing weight until June 12th when I hit 155.9 (70.7 kg). I fell off the weight loss wagon shortly after. Decided to start back up the day before Round 278 started.

    SW Rnd 286: 149.9 (68 kg)

    1/31- 149.8 (67.9 kg) Off to a good start. Honestly, I would be happy just to end this round anywhere in the 140s. It was supposed to snow today, but the weather warmed up and we've had rain all day instead. I'm glad I didn't have to commute home in a mess but I'm hoping the mountains got some snow to build up the snowpack.
    2/1- 149.1 (67.6 kg) Today my husband insisted I buy new bras because none of them fit. I have been resorting to wearing my sports bra and even that was on its tightest setting and wasn't as supportive any more. So we drove 170 miles (275 km) one way to Dillard's so I could go somewhere with fitters and a decent selection. I had forgotten how nice it is to have properly fitting and supportive undergarments. I should have done this a long time ago.
    2/2- 149.8 (67.9 kg) Only a semi-productive day but that's okay.
    2/3- 149.3 (67.7 kg) Crazy busy Monday at work. Turkey tacos for dinner tonight. Staying in calories.
    2/4- 148.7 (67.4 kg) Bitter wind and snowy tonight. I had my monthly coffee with friends and did a paint n sip afterwards. I need to stick with the chocolate chip cookie at Starbucks. I did the brownie tonight and it wasn't worth the calorie difference.
    2/5- 148.5 (67.4 kg) Today was not a great work day. I felt tired, discouraged and defeated by lots of little things out of my control (and tempted to eat my feelings). I got off work very late, spouse is traveling again, and I was trying to think of something for dinner that sounded appealing. As I was about to head out the door, one of the kitchen workers that happened to be in the hall asked me if I wanted dinner and ran into the kitchen and grabbed me a piping hot container of lasagna. I think they're technically supposed to charge but he said not to worry about it because they had extras from dinner service. That random act of kindness lifted my entire day. It can be so easy to dwell on the negatives, but small acts of good can have a big impact.
    2/6- 148.1 (67.2 kg) Resisted the urge to go to the local bar and grill that's a few blocks away. I have been craving their fried chicken sandwich and fries with queso. I will go at some point, but I'm hoping we can go to our favorite place this weekend for a burger since they've just opened back up from their usual January break.
