@jerier that's great advice!!!! I would love to not have those foods in my house but it's my hubby that brings them in, I don't buy junk food while he can easily fill a cart lol
But I can keep myself busy, find another task or take a bubble bath, that's a great idea!!!2 -

Hubby's bd yesterday, but I ate a lovely, healthy lunch out - grilled shrimp, salad, broccoli, one spoonful of his dessert. Yesterday evening I went for a 4-mile walk along the Maumee River on the beautiful Rivergreenway.
7/28 - 148.2 - 1330 - 10-day ave 1425 - 35 min walk + 30 min gardening
One of those mysterious upticks. All is well. It looks like a beautiful day, so I'm hoping to get at least one nice walk along one of our three rivers. Enjoy your weekend!
7/29 - 148 - 1653 - 10-day ave 1458 - 30 min walk + misc walking around stores & public garden
Splurged a little last night on ice cream and crackers (not together!) and my sodium was a little higher than usual, so no surprise. Pants I haven't worn in a while feel looser, so there's that! I've been having a lot of lower back and hip pain and blood work shows significant inflammation, so in addition to seeing a chiropractor I'm going to start an anti-inflammation cleanse in a few days. Happily, it's not very different from how I typically eat - the main things I'll have to give up are coffee (no biggee if I have my herbal teas) and chicken, which we eat fairly often. Anyway, I'm not doing it for weight loss, but will be interested to know whether it makes a difference (heavy on veggies, whole grains/no bread or grain-based pasta, and healthy fats). It's the Journey Alive 8-week cleanse program by Coralie Murphy, which is science-based and not extreme. Has anyone here done it?

Averages, averages....
7/31 - 148.3 - 1251 - 10-day ave 1457
Hmmm. I'm recording my moving average weights -- my actual weight has been steadily rising for the past 4 days (from 147.6 - 148.8 - 149 - 1496 - 149.8). I guess that makes sense in terms of my 10-day calorie averages (although those are actual, not net after exercise), but seems excessive. I have been sporadically taking Ibuprofen for back/hip/neck pain, so maybe water retention? I don't care that I'm not losing, but don't like the steady gains. And this hurting business has gotten old very quickly.
8/01 - 148.4 - 1743 - 10-day ave 1461
My actual weight has come back down .4, so I'm sure the increase is water from NSAIDs. I'm still researching anti-inflammatory regimes, but I'm pretty sure I'm going to start by cutting wheat, milk, and added sugars (which I get very few of anyway). Quite an adjustment - no more whole-wheat muffins with peanutbutter. :
8/02 - 148.4 - 1335 - 10-day ave 1458
Today I'm starting a strict anti-inflammatory diet to see if it helps. Waiting for more blood work results. Ugh.
8/03 - 148.6 - 1255 - 10-day ave 1438
My running average is up a smidge, but my actual weight is back down to the same number, so I seem to be liberating some of that water. Just one day "anti-inflammatory" and I don't want to get too hopeful too soon, but I swear I feel a little better. Have a lovely weekend, all!

Trending down. Bit of a challenge this evening—going to neighborhood festival (Pink Floyd cover band playing). Unsure of what kind of food is available so I’m going to eat dinner at home and just partake in a couple of beers.

7/27 - 183.6 - Had poor eating day yesterday, managed to stay within goal but barely. My daughter had been in an accident, she is OK but being her Mama I had to go to the hospital and see it with my own eyes to believe her.
7/28 - 184.0 - another unexpected task added on at suopertime. Ended up eating McDonald’s for supper. Still in calorie goal but not part of my plans.
7/29 - 185.2 - Went for a date night on Saturday our first in a long time, so fully enjoyed it. Stayed in maintenance but lots of carbs and sodium
7/30 - 185.2 - Yesterday ate in maintenance as well, very hot and didn't feel like cooking so ate out. Will get back on track today.
7/31 - 185.0 - Had a good day yesterday, even got a walk in.
8/01 - 184.2 a little surprised since I had too much sodium yesterday
8/02 - 184.2 - Had a good day yesterday so was a little disappointed.
8/03 - 183.8 - I fear I will be showing a gain this round as there is going to be adult beverages this weekend.
8/04 - Out of town - No Scales

7/27 / 224.2 at 7:00 / A bit of a bump up, but also an earlier weigh in. I'm not worried in the slightest. Still staying under calories. Didn't get any exercise in yesterday. I was feeling below par. I hope today will be a more comfortable day, and I already know I'll get some walking in.

8/2 / 224.2 at 7:00 / The headache waxes and wanes depending on how many sinus meds I have in my body. Bah.
8/3 / 224 at 7:30 / Headache better. I'm feeling much better about life and have much more energy.

7/27- 170 Ate 3 tacos at dinner time last night and went way over my sodium for the day. But I also did 2 workouts as well 😊
7/28- 170
7/29- 170 Patiently waiting for the 160's! Trying to get a workout in every day and staying within my calorie range. It's amazing how much better I feel already though!
7/30- 169! My family keeps bringing goodies to our home, cobblers, cakes and the other day doughnuts. I've been trying to stay away from all of it but yesterday I gave in to the doughnuts lol. Still proud of myself! 😊
7/31- 168 I sure hope my scales are right. I know it's still early in my journey (14 days in, 7 lbs down) so the weight loss will probably slow down soon.
8/01- 168
8/02- 167 Consistancy is key! Staying within my calorie range and getting a workout in daily, even if its only 10-15 minutes.
8/03- 168 1 pound up, probably from all the sodium yesterday. I had a 16 oz mango rita last night. Feel very dehydrated even though I drank a lot of water with it. I also ate cheese dip for dinner, but stayed in my calorie range. Bad choices, and I feel crummy today. Will do better today!

7/27: 219.6 Wooot back to my lowest weight that I was a week ago, dang I missed those numbers! Must have been retaining water!
7/28: 219.2 Really surprised I had a loss today!
7/29: 218.6 OMG I ate terrible yesterday, I logged everything and was just a little over but how did I lose?? I am so surprised!
7/30: 218.6 Happy it's not a gain, I'm so tired. Wondering if my weigh ins are better when I've slept longer. On the 27th woke up at 6:10, 28th 7:30 29th 8:30, today the 30th 6:10.
7/31: 217.8 10 Day Goal Met!!!! This is really exciting, I have never met a weightloss goal before!! (This may be a repost, I posted earlier or at least I thought I did lol)
8/01: 217.2 I am continuously surprised that losing weight can feel easy, and that I don't feel deprived. This has never been my experience.
8/02: 217.8 Not surprised, and not a big deal! I didn't mean plan yesterday, had Chili's Chicken Tacos (how the heck are those so high in Calories) and they were yummy. Back to planning today!
8/03: 217.8 Well I guess my body likes this number, might as well chill here lol. 😒😂

Plan to reach this goal:
-NO EATING OUT AT ALL IN THE NEXT 10 DAYS EVEN IF IT'S "HEALTHY"
-Pre-plan the night before and make sure you have all of your ingredients at home and follow through.
-Workout at least 3 times a week (Goal of running at least 4 minutes straight at 6.5 mph)
8/02- Unable to weigh in because I had to go to school and was rushed. We'll see tomorrow. Basically under my goal today and went to the gym. GUYS I MET MY GOAL OF RUNNING FOR 4 MINUTES STRAIGHT at 6.5 mph! Next going to get to 5 minutes straight! It's fun to make progress. Makes you want to keep going to reach your next small goal. Kind of like weightloss too.

@allison8668 How close are you to your goal weight? Losses slow down the closer you get.
Have you looked at your weekly calorie averages? Are you closer to your maintenance value or are you averaging more than a 100 calorie deficit?
How about the quality of the foods you're eating? If I eat more processed foods I tend to retain fluid. If I eat more whole foods I see more consistent results.
Hope this helps.3
