@tlgale we've all been there , just remember when you do go off the rails, a lot of the pounds you see on the scale are water retention from increased carbs/sodium. To gain a pound of fat you need to eat 3500 calories over maintenance, not just over your MFP calorie goal. One or two bad days of eating doesn't make you fat, one or two good days of eating doesn't make you thin, it's what you do most of the time that matters.[/quote]

I need to remember this. We ALL need to remember this. This journey is so annoying with all the switchbacks and curves. I'm just glad all the Halloween candy is gone.

11/04-199.8 lbs. Went to the gym. Came back weighing 196.4lbs after walking running 5 miles. Treated myself to poppers and fried mushrooms and still managed to stay close to my calorie goal.
11/05-197.4 lbs. Notes for today? None really. I'm eating my regular eats. Yesterday I went over by 35 calories but I've done much worse. I haven't gone to the gym today but I have a fitness assessment at 11 so I have to go anyway at some point. Planning on pizza tonight.

What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.

This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

11/4 131.0 I have not been drinking enough water the last couple of days. Cooler temps (yesterday a high of 80) make it more difficult for me to remember.
11/5 130.0 Got in almost 3 qts of water. Made a grilled cheese and bacon sandwich (on keto 90 second bread with almond flour) at 11AM and wasn’t hungry all day. Needed more protein so had a Premier Protein shake at 8PM. Meeting Amy at the gym at 2.

Back again! Just noticed yesterday (goal date) I was under my second short term goal weight despite the slight stall - so even though I've felt really "behind" in my journey I think I've found my patience again and I'm happy where I'm at.
11/04 - Sunday - 179.6 - NSV on Saturday - went to moms to clean and help her unpack. She wanted to order from the pizza place (she has healthy habits so tends to use me as an excuse to "celebrate") but I said no thanks and had tuna and a salad! Then on Sunday - daylight savings morning was slow, lazy, and snuggly and I loved it. Went out running errands in the afternoon. Started a pot roast and headed out to clean up the yard. DH used to leaf blower, I raked up big piles, and we moved the tarp together for about 2 hours, but about 1 hour of active raking. I didnt eat enough protein in the day so I was super snacky after dinner but I managed to reign it in.
11/05 - Monday - 179.2 - A loss on a Monday?!!!?! Look what happens when I stay accountable on the weekends! Woohoo! Need to pick up a short list of things at the store before heading home after work. Milk, coffee, and shampoo. I want to make a crustless quiche tonight for breakfasts for the week, we got some yummy ham at the farm. Fish oil habit is coming back around and I started taking elderberry extract as everyone is sick! 10 minutes of yoga is also turning into a habit! Feels good to take care of myself!

Nutrition Plan = Continue to limit gluten, dairy, sugar, diet soda, alcohol & eat non-processed foods, protein/fruit/veg at every meal, complex carbs at breakfast and post workout meal, drink plenty of water.

11/4 = 146.6 Still sick, spent most of the day in bed yesterday, was under in calories but really only consumed soup and leftover Halloween candy, so no surprise with the scale bumping up.

11/5 = 145.4 Still not 100 % better but decided maybe if I acted well, I would feel well. It worked I went for a run yesterday, beautiful fall weather, sunny and 51 degrees. I LOVE fall running, felt very grateful to be a runner yesterday, especially after watching the NYC marathon on TV in the morning. Shalane Flanagan is a real inspiration of mine and it was was a great day for USA women's running. Also completed the day 77 of 90 workout which was 3 sets of: Fully Extended Tuck Jump, Divebombers, Brogue Kicks, V-Up with a Twist, Sit Outs, Barrier Jump to Burpee, & Alternating Single Leg Tabletops. Overall, a really good day, so happy to be back in the swing of things with my workouts, even if my weight loss has stalled for the moment.

19th Round for me: Female 65, height – 5’
Last round was up and down and ultimately no change. Did get through without a major disaster which I will take as a win because there were a number of things would have tipped me over in the past. This round I have a good chance at a loss if I just hold steady and don’t allow any stress to have the upper hand.
Round 58 – SW 161.6, GW 159.8

Ultimate Goal Weight – 128; Hoping to be under 140 by end of June. This is less than 1 lb. per round but as I realize that may not be possible as I get lower (1 lb per round would put me at 131).

11/5 - 175.2 🤔 - Ooookay. I did eat macaroni and cheese and a salad with a burger my son cooked. Then a treat size bag of pretzels😏 and a mini twix that my Grandson gave me from his Halloween pumpkin. He got SO excited telling me about trick or treating. He's two, so you can imagine.

Oh! I miss that excitement! When my eldest was just over the age of 1 she loved her trick or treating so much...on November 1 we got home and she did not understand why she couldn't put her angel costume back on and do it again!

Day/Weight/Comment
11/04 162.8 That’s more like it. Happy to be back for another round with all you (weight) losers! I ate about 2 cups of popcorn at the theater yesterday morning, and expected it to punish me, but I ate well the rest of the day. I was privileged to attend worship at my home church this morning! That meant missing a morning concert with my group, but I’ll be with them for two more concerts before this day ends. I’ll be on the road in a couple of hours. Thor, my GSD, and I are looking forward to a walk tomorrow morning.
11/05 162.8 I slept later than usual this morning. I stuck to low carbs yesterday, but, last night at IHOP, my sirloin steak tips (with mushrooms & onions) and spinach and broccoli sides was a larger meal than I’m used to eating. I guess it didn’t hurt me, unless it shows up tomorrow. At the moment, rain chances are low, so Thor and I are heading out for our walk.
