    For the past 10 days, I've been able to prep meals and stick to my meal plan about 85-90%. Damn those Lindt Lindor truffles Santa brought me in my stocking. But even those, at most I've had 3 at a time. I brought cookies to my meeting to get them out of my house and everyone ELSE ate them. I'm on day 4 of 30 day yoga challenge.
    Areas of improvement:
    Increase water intake
    Trust that weight loss takes time and results aren't instant. Feel good and be proud in my actions, not the results.

    @echoroyal79 I do Rob Nevin's Slim Nation (used to be called living lean). My first time with his program, I was pregnant. It kept me from gaining too much weight, I gained about 20 lbs with my daughter. I gained far more after she was born, not doing any plan. It's a 3 day carb cycle plan, high protein, low carb, lower fat for 2 days and then on "load" day, you up your carbs. My sister and a few friends were very successful on this program. It starts with specific meals but when you get the hang of it you can substitute foods as long as the calories match up and the category is the same (ex. Protein for protein)

    Drank 65 oz of water today. Did my weigh in and took all my measurements. 😳 The goal for today was the water and measurements, so I will take that as a win. @echoroyal79 Thank you for the support. I HATE exercise. I always feel like crap afterwards and super grumpy. I do it because it is necessary. It’s hard to find time because some days I work 14/16 hours and so I want to see my kid on the other days. It’s just not easy.

    Ive gone to the gym every day this week and eaten clean and stayed under my daily calorie limit, but earlier when I weighed myself I'd gained 1.6 pounds since yesterday... I tried to tell myself it was because id gotten to the gym much later in the day than usual and already eaten and drank a good amount of water, but it was honestly still pretty upsetting. On top of that the app yelled at me today that I was too far under my calories for the day even though i'd felt like id eaten a decent amount.... idk I guess this is a frustration rant. Thanks for letting me vent.

    Do you weigh yourself at the same time each day? It’s not really worth comparing random times you stepped on the scale throughout the day. And 1.6 lbs is nothing really. There could be a million reasons for a fluctuation that small.

    @riley2eat are your hormones fluctuateing? Actually I’m sure they are. Maybe something like happyscale that shows an average would help with the mental side.

    I would definitely only weigh first thing in the morning! Everyone "gains" weight throughout the day with eating, drinking, sweating, etc.

    Yes, I see you...happens with me too sometimes. But you can carry on the way you feel best for you....just don't eat too less to jeopardize your health in the long run, dear
