February starting weight - 176.3
February goal - 171.3

February 1 - 176.3
February 2 - 176.8
February 3 - 176.9 - I am seeing that the only time that I drop weight is after skating. There are 3 public skating sessions per week including today until the end of March. I did more than an hour of workouts yesterday (non-skating) but am still up slightly. It really frustrated me in January. Perhaps skating is more than exercise and is stress relief which helps me to lose weight?
February 4 - 176.0 after skating yesterday.
February 5 - 178.0 - 2 pound gain after a very "good" day. I learned from January about how this happens without reason. Staying on track. There wasn't any skating to go to yesterday, going today.
February 6 - 175.9 - Skating yesterday : - )
February 7 - 174.9 - Skating yesterday. I was afraid this morning because I was only at 400 calories by the time I got home last night from a busy day so ate dinner at 10:30! I thought that I would show a gain from eating so very late. I did burn a lot of calories though.
February 8 - 175.0 - could have been worse, I ate a whopping 2300 calories yesterday!
February 9 - 174.8
February 10 - 175.0 - Up slightly. Skating on the docket today, but also a dinner out. Going to be quite moderate with my consumption during the day to make up for the dinner.
February 11- 175.1 - Kind of expected that after going out.
February 12 - 177.8 - Hopefully just an anomaly. Skating today and tomorrow.
February 13 - 175.8 - Expecting a woosh soon, burned 1500 calories yesterday between skating, walking, snow shovelling! Skating today.
February 14 - 176.0 - another high calorie burn day yesterday with skating and shovelling, but I consumed lots of calories too. I was still in a deficit however. Geez it is so hard to lose weight!! Half way through the month already.

@tiabirdie56 We still have half of a month Tia. You have come such a long way from 253! Are you still doing Keto and Intermittent Fasting or are you trying to change it up?

Ugh. I'm dealing with a constant internal struggle between wanting to lose a few more (vanity) pounds and wanting to eat all the things. Clearly eating all the things is winning.
