@emmclean Thanks for the kind words! I got the results back yesterday, and they were so much better than I had even hoped!
Apparently I lost 19 lbs of body fat since early April, and gained about 2 lbs of lean mass: .9lbs in intracellular water, which is associated with muscle cells enlarging in size and number, and .9lbs in skeletal muscle mass. So I didn't lose muscle mass, as I had feared, but instead increased the size of my little ol muscle cells!
I really felt a lot better after seeing those results, and if any of you are working out for a while and not seeing scale changes, consider going to a gym that has one of these scales. I know we're told to measure waist, thighs, arms, etc and judge positive changes by things like how clothes fit, and certainly I am able to wear some clothes now that I hadn't been able to wear before, but it is gratifying to see the numbers change, too. The Inbody scale I used also included a value representing visceral fat, which I brought down by 2 points as well. So, that also felt good to see.

Still haven’t been in the gym for about a month. I think after this weekend, things will finally be slow enough for me to get back into my routine.

Discovered that the organic mayo I bought has 2.5x the calories of regular Hellmann's mayo per tbsp. Just goes to show you should always check the nutrition label.
@anita7164 If your weigh in day is Saturday, post it today (June 2). This will be your June Week 1 weight. June will have 5 weigh ins.2 -

Racing quads again today. One came to grief and spent the evening fixing it (bent motor, smashed camera, only about $80 damage overall, not bad for hitting a metal post at over 50mph).
Well under on food today. Will need to try not be as short tomorrow.

Whoops, totally self inflicted! Rather over indulged at a birthday party last night but I can live with a 1lb gain - I was around 190 for some of the week so I'm confident I can knock it off by next Saturday, hopefully even a 2lb loss to make up the difference and keep on track for my wedding.
@LesIckaBod ah that's great news, amazing results!2 -

I’m hoping this turns into a scale victory next week. I didn’t go to it because I know I would have gone wayyyyy overboard with eating. Patting myself on the back.2

3 week tracked tdee was over 500 calories more today than for the previous two tracked 3wk tdees. Huh? Not sure why I've got the big diff, and not sure whether to make changes now or wait to see what the values are after another week. I think wait and see.2
