    Starting weight - 249.5
    Goal weight - 174.5

    11/3 - 211.5
    12/1 - 205
    12/15 - 203 YAY!
    12/29 - 214 Huge scale spike from this diet break. Restart the calorie restriction on Jan. 4th. Hoping the woosh is just as impressive.
    1/5/18 - 209.5 - good drop from that spike. Reworking my calorie targets.
    1/12/18 - 209 - Not the worst news. Ok, body - I'm patient - but seriously, let's shed some pounds.
    1/19/18 - 215 today - Arrggghhhh! So frustrating. I think I need to lower my calorie targets.
    1/26/18 - 208.5 today. The trend is downward. YAY! Adjusted calorie target to 2000 per day. Hopefully that is the right number. Onward to Onederland!
    2/2/18 - 209 More arrggghhhh! Two more weeks like this and I will adjust calories. It seems like 2000 is maintenance level for me.
    2/9/18 - 210.5 - Looking like a plateau from here.
    2/23/18 - 212.5 after vacay. Back to the deficit grind!
    3/2/18 - 208.5 - YAY! Have adjusted calories to 1800 for weekdays and 2500 refeed days for weekends. Let's see if that will work.

    REfeed? have to look this up...you are the second one today I saw doing this? hmmmm

    I’ll join! I’ve lost 30 pounds in the last year and a half. I want to lose another 8-10 by summer.

    Here are my stats:

    Female, 23 years old, 5’4
    SW: 127.8 pounds (as of today 3/19/18)
    GW: Between 118-120 pounds

    I recently got over a weight loss plateau that ive been stuck in for months by cutting out bread. I’m steadily losing 1-2 pounds a week by eating between 1,200- 1,600 calories (albeit, I’m rarely close to the 1,200 mark. It’s almost always closer to 1,600 calories).

    PLATEAU, it's a b**ch! If I'm honest it's only a plateau because I'm eating like a d**k, my actual food is okay. it's the amount of *kitten* (not literally) I'm hoovering up. I've turned into a total chocolate fiend over the last month, it's been known to previously to be my alter ego and it's returned big time.

    Suppose I'll feel sorry for myself for a bit................where's the fridge?

    Heard that. I like a bit of chocolate myself, and I kept running into it yesterday. Usually pass by most of it, but not yesterday. Oh, well - logged it all and am getting back on track today.

    REfeed? have to look this up...you are the second one today I saw doing this? hmmmm

    Mary Beth - I ran across the thread below a few months back - that is where I first heard about refeeds. The relevant information is on the first page.

    http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10604863/of-refeeds-and-diet-breaks

    Wow! Thank you...what a wealth of information...I will have to read it later...have to get going now. Thank you again!

    Starting weight - 249.5
    Goal weight - 174.5

    11/3 - 211.5
    12/1 - 205
    12/15 - 203 YAY!
    12/29 - 214 Huge scale spike from this diet break. Restart the calorie restriction on Jan. 4th. Hoping the woosh is just as impressive.
    1/5/18 - 209.5 - good drop from that spike. Reworking my calorie targets.
    1/12/18 - 209 - Not the worst news. Ok, body - I'm patient - but seriously, let's shed some pounds.
    1/19/18 - 215 today - Arrggghhhh! So frustrating. I think I need to lower my calorie targets.
    1/26/18 - 208.5 today. The trend is downward. YAY! Adjusted calorie target to 2000 per day. Hopefully that is the right number. Onward to Onederland!
    2/2/18 - 209 More arrggghhhh! Two more weeks like this and I will adjust calories. It seems like 2000 is maintenance level for me.
    2/9/18 - 210.5 - Looking like a plateau from here.
    2/23/18 - 212.5 after vacay. Back to the deficit grind!
    3/2/18 - 208.5 - YAY! Have adjusted calories to 1800 for weekdays and 2500 refeed days for weekends. Let's see if that will work.
    3/9/18 - 206 - another YAY! Aiming for a new low (sub 203) by the end of this month.
    3/16/18 - 208 - could be worse, but this is getting old. Was hoping to see more steady (albeit slow) progress downward.
    3/23/18 - 205.5 - Okiedokey. Slow and steady loss. Real slooooow! HAHA! :D
