    I weigh in everyday, but I only focus on averages, (snip)

    Lbs lost in March: 3.9 lbs to date.

    I do this too. I find it gives a much more accurate picture than just weighing once per week. Weight can fluctuate from day to day, but averaging shows the trend.

    For me it is a huge motivator when loss is very slow. If the daily weight isn't moving much, or if is up and down, the average will show overall loss even if it is just a little during a plateau.

    I had a good workout week. I wasn’t feeling so well towards the end of the week but after having BCAA on Saturday and Sunday, I feel better. I’m guessing I was a little run down. I didn’t set my goal for March correctly. It’s 184.6. I’m .6 away.

    Renewing my commitment to avoid gluten has resulted in dropping some water. Now I just need to stay focused and continue.

    I definitely feel plumper when I eat an English muffin rather than a sweet potato serving of equal calories, for example. I bought some yesterday to change up breakfast and have one with tomatoes for lunch and again this morning for breakfast. I can feel the bloat.

    Happy Sunday, everyone!

    So happy to return to Daylight Saving Time. Getting home from work with daylight to spare, gets me outside more.

    No new daily low this week, but a new low average of 205 makes me happy.

    Soon I will need new jeans, mine now fall down without a belt. I can tuck in my shirts again. I do still have a spare tire... but it's a donut now, not a tractor tire! No more muffin-top.

    I tried on some clothes I haven't fit into for some years and they fit again. Now I wish I hadn't given away some other clothes I thought I would never be able to wear again. At some point I will have to buy some new clothes.

    I am still not thin. I will probably never be thin, but I am definitely in better shape. My skin isn't dry anymore either, which is an unexpected bonus.

    I am more mobile. It is easier to bend and stretch. I have less pain. I just feel better overall. These are things I remind myself of when the numbers are moving more slowly than I would like.

    I had originally hoped to be close to my goal of 180 by now. I am just over halfway from when I started in earnest at Christmas 2016. It might take another year to get there. I am OK with that. I am moving forward, not backward.

    Highest weight ever: 254 in October 1999.

    Lowest since 1999: 195.

    Original starting weight: 243 in 2015.

    MFP Starting weight December 25th, 2016: 233

    Goal: 180 in however long it takes.

    Weely averages:
    Last 7 days February 22-28th: 206.8
    February 26th to March 4th: 205.8
    March 5th to March 11th: 205

    Loss for March: 1.8 lbs

    MFP Loss: 28 lbs.

    Total cumulative loss since mid 2015: 38 lbs.

    Until next week...

    Move more, eat less.

    Good job, Jenn. Nice progression...I'm in a similar situation when it comes to needing a new wardrobe. It feels good to tuck in my jeans without the protruding "spare-tire"...Doesn't matter when we get there, as long as we GET THERE! :smile:
