@mtaratoot - wow thanks for all the information! I’ll definitely look into it!4 -
Original starting weight - 228.3
March starting weight - 154.2
March goal - 152.2 or lower
Ultimate goal - 147?
1st - 154.2
5th - 152.2
6th 154.2
7th - 154.4 Figured since Jan 1, 2019, I’ve lost 0.1 lb. So, I guess this is maintenance. I will think about whether I am truly committed to getting lower. By all measures, I m healthy. I’m thinking losing a few vanity pounds may not be enough motivation for me. Still thinking.
8th - 153.4 I am recommitted & ate with a very good deficit today...tons of heard hill walking & another flat walk with a friend!
I do want to be below 153.

awwww....how soon can you do the defense again? im in process of getting ready for my defense and i know how you feel....so very stressful....0 -
I will continue to weigh daily throughout March. It usually keeps me accountable from having that second helping, knowing that I will be weighing in the morning. I also like to look for trends, so daily weighing.
58 years old, 5'3"
Oct 27.18 joined MFP Start weight 191
March goal 169.3 - 5 pound loss, and hopefully into a new decade finally.
February loss was 1.9 pounds
February 28 - 174.8 - burned off mega calories yesterday too, but still up in weight this morning. Low on sleep.
March 01 - 174.3 - I hope for March to be better than February.
March 02 - 173.7 - Unbelievable, I was so disappointed with February, being so diligent about burning lots of calories, eating carefully, and barely losing weight - that last night I had (in defiance) a giant steak, corn, sour cream, potatoes etc., way over my calorie allotment. I truly expected to see a gain this morning.
March 03 - 174.3 - So the steak dinner from Friday shows up?
March 04 - 173.9 - skating yesterday
March 05 - 174.9 - no reason to be up other than short on sleep. Skating today, so hope to see a drop tomorrow morning.
March 06 - 173.6 - yay for skating, I am skating again today too.
March 07 - 173.3 - again, yay for skating. I am working out of town today, and taking my skates with me because there is an arena there. There is only a few weeks left of the skating season : - (
March 08 - 171.4 - I have learned now not to get too excited about this, I had a big dinner yesterday so I expect it to catch up with me. Slow metabolism once we get older. I did burn off a lot of calories yesterday skating and other stuff though. Lowest weight I have been so far, but then I had one low day in February which didn't last too.
March 09 - 172.7 - I skated 3 times at 3 different places yesterday (1,095 calories burned), but I did expect to see a gain because I had a good dinner on Thursday that hadn't yet showed up. Running monthly total: loss 1.4 lb
March 10 - 174.7 - argh! At least there is skating today. I get it if I don't burn 1,000+ calories that I might not lose anything, but I at least don't expect to gain when I only burn off 300-400. Cruel. Throughout all of this I always have calories to spare. Hoping for a better number tomorrow. I so badly want to get into the 60s.
March 11 - 172.3 - I'll take it. Big skating calorie burn yesterday.
March 12 - 173.9 - I stick to 1200-1300 calories, aerobics, but if I don't get in at least an hour of skating I am up on the scale. Skating during my work break today. It is really hard to lose weight otherwise for me.
Running monthly total: loss .4 lbs3 -
So glad I didn’t quit during my four week plateau! Finally lost again this week 😃

March 13 - 172.5 - I actually matched my calories in with my calories out yesterday! It is starting to look like my way forward will be to burn 3,500-7,000 calories per week to lose 1 pound per week. That is pretty time consuming, but it seems like it is the only way that I can lose anything. Skating today ; - )
Running monthly total: loss 1.8 lbs2 -
Mtaratoot... I guess I feel that way because they said it that way in the room they said they couldn't pass the document and then delayed the graduation a semester. I totally understand it wasn't a complete fail but they definitely didn't present a positive side for sure 😕
However, after reviewing my edits they aren't extensive so I do feel better about that!0 -
