PW =(250.7)

Total loss for November: 11.5 lbs
I seem to be a little stuck at 249 but that's ok....I fully expected plateau points coming into this thing. I see my primary care doctor tomorrow for the first time in a year. She has been bugging me to lose weight for awhile now. I'm interested to see what my labs show now that I'm eating a low fat/low sugar diet.6 -

@kearyandjessy I'm glad you're back, this is the last week of November and I can add you back for December, but I'll need a starting weight and weigh in day, and feel free to hang out with us for the rest of November and post!
Thanks. I will weigh in on Tuesdays
Starting weight 304.4
That is today's weight. Let me know if you need me to weight myself next week or if this week works.1 -
Daily Post (Mon November 26)
Track: Yes
Calories: Yes)
Exercise: Yes, walk 20 minutes
Goals/Day/Comments: this weekend had been crazy. Work was so busy. Since I had a very sensible Thanksgiving meal (roasted cauliflower and mushroom Zuppa Toscana which was only 278 calories a serving, salad and bread. My mom and I are not into the tradition.), I didn't go over my calories and I wanted to treat myself a different way. I wanted my Chick fila spicy sandwich with fries and my diet lemonade. I wanted a treat. I built my calories in and had it Saturday. It was great! I think my plateau is over! I am loosing! So happy!3 -

Tracking yes
Calories yes under
Exercise yes more than usual
Goals/comments
On my way home to NYC it's been a rough vacation for me these past 3 weeks due to my respiratory issues and this extra weight I'm carrying around but positive note I was around family and was able to sit up most of time instead of laying down all day (like I do at home even bought an adjustable massaging bed).
My goal is to try to walk 5 to 15 mins a0 day even though my PT said no exercise I need to move my body.
Here are my keto friendly muffins vanilla-100% dark chocolate chips, Shredded coconut and walnuts

Hi Al!
Daily stats- mon 11.26
Tracked- yes
Calories- under
Exercise- yoga, stretching, weights
For anyone who gained over the last week or has stalled - I was stalled basically ALL of October even with daily under cals and exercise.
It goes up and down... September was great for weight loss, October I stayed pretty much the same- November the moons are in alignment and the scale is moving south again!
The process continues! Keep it going! 🎉7 -

@CindyJNC1963 Plateaus are a normal part of the process and it can be because our bodies have adapted to the current conditions, calories, exercise etc and changing those target numbers can help, and also adding in different activity can help.CindyJNC1963 wrote: »Username: CindyJNC1963

If you haven't adjusted your macros/caloric intake since you've lost a significant amount (and congrats on that btw), my suggestion is to start there and look at what you're eating, it may be time to adjust that, as we lose weight, our bodies need less food to survive/maintain so in turn to lose, we need less.

I don't think calories are the problem ...... I am almost always way under the 1350 calories per day that my weight loss dr. recommended. I rarely ever eat back my exercise calories. I think my big problem is fiber and I just ordered a fiber supplement to help with that. I do see the fitness expert next week so I will probably start some new exercises3 -

Daily Report Mon 26 Nov
Tracking: Yes
Calories: Under
Exercise: No
Gonna have to lose weight by adjusting my diet since working out is not an option at this time. Still with the irregular heart rhythm. Meet with the Cardio docs tomorrow to adjust meds again. Can't even walk half a mile without a bad nose bleed, which is increasing every day from the blood thinners.

@cmteach4 I'm finding that I was so careful for so long during competition prep that right now I'm finding it really hard to get that groove back. I don't necessarily need to lose more weight right now, other than I'm ready to finally get rid of that belly (the last part I want to get rid of) and that's hurting my motivation so much. I really need to have a better plan and a reason for doing it so I stay on track, maybe you need the same. I actually made a Healthy Wage (something I did last year to help my motivation) and sadly, I've already made the bet, already lost the 30 lbs I set out to and I'm not supposed to be done with that until end of January so now I'm finding myself in the boat of not wanting to work so hard and that's not really a good place for me to be.
Maybe it's time for us to both think about why we started doing this in the first place and get back into it. We CAN do this!1
