    Daily check in:
    Feeling pretty great today. Rode my bike to work today, measured and tracked all my food, and stayed under my calorie limit. I ate slowly and tried to chew my more.
    Things to work on:more water, less carbs and chew more.

    Brilliant loss @Jactop ! You must be thrilled!

    I am!!! My weight rarely budges regardless of what I eat or how much I exercise. I think it's a combo of avoiding some recently discovered allergens and a fondness for guiltess gummies

    I am finding the same thing too! It can get kind of frustrating but I am starting to accept it as life right now. It would be nice to see even a little drop regularly but not so far. It gives me comfort that I know someone else in the same situation.

    It is frustrating. Especially when you know you're putting in the effort. I've accepted that the number on the scale is beyond my control. I'm trying to focus on staying active and eating right in the hopes that eventually the effort will pay off and when it does I'll be so glad I didn't give up.

    Tuesday check in
    Tracked: just carbs
    Calories and carbs: good
    Water: not great
    Exercise: 45 min walk
    Steps: 15

    Plan for Wednesday: bake some low carb crackers and cookies. My supply is running low. Yikes.

    Tuesday Check-in
    Calories: under (and all measured, tracked, on plan)
    Water: on target
    Exercise: 25 min weight training + 66 min platform stepping

    Plan for Wednesday:
    Early morning bit of walking; martial arts class in evening; make batch of Best Vegetable & Lentil Soup

    @Jactop - Your "Yikes" made me giggle! I hope the baking is fun! And come to think of it, it is time for me to bake. I do a healthy digestive biscuit (made with seeds and oats) that I can eat and that my teenager likes a lot. Time to make those!

    Congratulations, 20 pounds is some serious hard work! It sounds like you're physically doing a lot,you may be burning more than your steps. Have a great vacation!

    Not much is going on. I ate under my calories and feel back on track after my weekend. I'm not going to weigh for a few days in the Hope's that the scale goes down from my eating out. Exercise plan for the day is lifting weights at the gym and elliptical with some time on the recumbent bike later on.

    Thursday check-in
    Calories: under
    Water: over
    Exercise: 60 minutes on the treadmill. I did three miles! B)

    It was another good day! 19 1/2 hour fast, mostly low carb eating and NO sugar! I have an all-day staff meeting tomorrow and not sure where they will choose to go to lunch. I plan to fast until then and hope to make good choices. I have to go buy their snacks and sodas tonight. I plan to take my plain sparkling water and some nuts if I really feel like I need to munch on something. :)
