Hi there, I have to say that I haven't really tried to watch what I eat this week. (It's obvious, lol) However, I am not upset by this. It's been a rough month in other ways and I know with hard work I can get where I want to be a little later. *smiles* Always remember not to be too hard on yourself!

After eating crap all week, it's been a pretty great week.
Next month I will keep my same goal since I never reached it. I am happy to have maintained 116 lbs though. Remember how I felt like I didn't lose 3 pounds? Well I finally feel like I've lost the weight. Just took my body time to adjust mentally I guess. 2 -

I didn't make a goal but I wanted to share what happened to me this month.
In the beginning of the month I was stressed, always carefully planning very controlled meal plans for each day and concerned about how much exercise I got. Towards the middle of the month I became very discouraged and gained my normal period weight. After my period ended, it was time for four nights away with my family.
I decided to take a break from exact calorie counting and exercise for Thanksgiving weekend. The stress started to wear on me and it was more about my mental health to take a break than losing weight and gaining muscle.
The outcome - I lost .8lbs since my last weigh in about 9 days ago, even with the relaxing holiday. That shows that stress doesn't help me achieve my muscle gain goals or my weight loss goals, instead it stopped any progress or even reversal of progress.
My plan now - I'm going to still plan a few meals, like preparing breakfast the night before so I don't have to worry. There will be no more worry about going over or under 100 calories, no more planning how much I exercise but instead pushing myself in the moment to get the tough workout my body needs for that day or time. I'm going to feel full even if I go over my calorie limit, and I'm going to relax about my macro and micro-nutrient goals, except fiber of course

So, my holiday indulgence is over. For me, it's time to start getting serious again!
Although, I have to say I'm happy that I stabilized instead of adding more. LOL

viaTess, thats a great plan, stressing with weight and calorie limit isn't that fun, its good you are focusing on being healthy and not making plans and enjoying the process. I find that If I try to plan my food or exercises for the day I end up stressing so, I've decided to just listen to my body and eat intituively.1 -
