    02/25-195.8-(Trend Weight: 195.6)-Right back to starting weight. Back to the drawing board, as they say. I forgot to take my Lasix yesterday so this is likely fluid. Meals were good but, snacks so-so but I came in under calorie. I can do better. I’ll be traveling tomorrow for groceries and general shopping. Dinner will be out but I will try to make smart choices. I will definitely bring home all healthy foods that fit within my plan. I think I will shop for less snacks as they are too tempting, even when low calorie or low carb. I need snacks that don’t taste sweet because that seems to just be a trigger for a sugar or substitute sugar binge. I need to STOP needing sweetness at night! I’m not a fruit eater, but even if I were I know the sweetness would trigger me right now. I need to go back to ½ to 1 oz of unsalted nuts or some cubed block cheese. Or perhaps some occasional skinnygirl popcorn. I did much better when I stuck to those. T-Minus 0 lbs with 10 pounds to go for my May birthday goal. Welcome back QuiltingJaine.

    02/26-197.8-(Trend Weight: 195.8)- Holy Cow Batman! An overnight gain of a full TWO POUNDS!!! Can you tell I didn’t get in my Lasix meds yesterday after all? It’s so hard to weather these fluid-filled fluctuations! I ended up in a nearby town to order the flowers for my friend’s funeral Saturday. I am traveling today so there will be no Lasix yet again. I may as well skip weighing tomorrow as I don’t need the shock and discouragement and inaccuracy of the fluid-filled weight. I think I will be able to stay home tomorrow though so I will aim to take my medication then. Something just occurred to me for the first time this morning. I am a hard & heavy coffee drinker (black) who has no trouble with my diet during the day when I am home and preparing my own meals. It’s the night time that is my nemesis. I realized this morning that I stop drinking coffee in the evening in order to not affect sleep. That is when the problems with snacks begin. Could it be that the coffee keeps my appetite at bay? Is it the Caffeine? Is it the hand to mouth? I don’t think it’s just the liquid aspect because I begin drinking a lot more water in the evening and at night as a substitute which doesn’t curb those sugary snack cravings like my coffee does during the day. Am I just USED TO the Intermittent Fasting during the day but not in the evening? Is the IF hurting me in some way or making me overeat later in the day? It’s like a switch flips in the evening and everything turns completely around and changes, especially my appetite. Any thoughts on any of this?

    @_jeffreyD_ OMG thanks. Sad typo..... :'( It was likely a wishful typo. Too late to edit, but I'll have corrected in tomorrow's post.

    @deepwoodslady Donna, try drinking hot water in the evening. I thought it sounded disgusting when DD did it during COVID but it really is quite satisfying and NO CAFFEINE!

    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 288: 147 (66.7 kg)

    2/20- 147.5 (66.9) Another swing the wrong way. I don't know if TMI is to blame, TOM, too much sodium, too many carbs, or what. But I do know if I stay the course, it'll eventually correct.
    2/21- 147 (66.7) My teeth are still sore from the springs they put on my upper braces on Tuesday. I'm used to mild tenderness 24-48 hours after an appointment and I don't even really get sore anymore when my c-chains are switched out, but this has me eating soft foods and taking ibuprofen. I even woke up a few times during the night because my teeth were uncomfortable. But I'm excited because it marks the next step in my treatment.
    2/22- 146.9 (66.6 kg) It was almost 50 today and not raining. We went for a nice walk by the lake and did a little loop through downtown.
    2/23-146.8 (66.6 kg) Ate at maintenance today. We went for a drive and the nearby town happened to be wrapping up their winter carnival with dog keg pull races. We hadn't laughed so hard in a long time. Watching a dachshund pull an (empty) beer can down the course while the lab in the next lane had a larger (also empty) keg was great. Some dogs had so much speed they almost took out their owners with the keg, others repeatedly stopped partway down track to sniff and greet the crowd. It was a nice way to wrap up the weekend.
    2/24- 146.6 (66.5 kg) DH rescheduled this week's travel to next week. I'm excited. I think we both need a break from his work trips.
    2/25- 145.3 (65.9 kg) Spontaneous date night tonight!
    2/26-146 (66.2 kg) Tired, tired, tired from work. I haven't had to cook at all this week thanks to DH even though it was my turn Monday. We typically alternate nights, but not super strict about it. Still, I really appreciate him taking the bigger share of the load this week.
