    @mari_moulin - you've got this. Modifying WOE is hard. Use the data and your experience to guide you. We are with you and learning, too.

    @lalabank - love your plan. How can you miss with short, mid, and long term goals?! The project manager in me loves it!

    Adjusting check-in dates to use my regular Friday weigh-ins (pins) for my personal tracking. Checking in between weigh-ins helped keep me focused, will keep that up in June.

    Today's Thoughts: Not a bad weekend. Working on some major projects around the house. I log any house or yard work out of the ordinary as exercise, so it's bumped my exercise minutes in Fitbit way up. I continued to eat within plan. And yes, there was a weight spike.

    Not too worried. It's moving back down, and didn't alter the trend weight. This happened the last time I worked on a labor intensive project, and I read somewhere that this stresses the body and can cause a temporary fluid gain. I also have noticed that I spike just before a drop. I believe the advice was to calm the $%&@ down, so I'm trying to just ignore it and carry on.

    Not likely that I'll hit that June goal, but pretty sure I'll wrap up the month with a new low.

    June Game Plan & Goals:
    • Continue weekly meal planning
    • Log daily in MFP - focus on daily calorie deficit goal of 500 This is very reasonable for me
    • No calorie intake after 8pm
    • Hit Fitbit step goal of 5000, then increase to 6000 - 7 day average 4976
    • Hit active minutes goal of 25 minutes daily, then increase to 30 - 7 day average 88
    • Hit strength building exercise goal of 6 days, then increase to 7 - 7 day average 3

    Update: 183.6! Back on track!

    I just did an impromptu weigh-in and I'm back to where I left off since my TOM; I'm 183.6. Now, it's time to kick it up a notch and I hope to squeeze out another pound before July 1st.

    I've been working hard and eating well, so I feel like my body is about to whoosh! It's good to have a stall moment because it's not healthy to lose too quickly, it's to let the body "recalculate" and let nature take it's course. With that being said, I welcome another whoosh anytime! lol

    Today's Thoughts: Staying calm. I've been stuck at my desk the last couple days and my body seems to be fighting something. Gastro. Inflammation. Stress. Settling into the 140's. I don't know. I'm going to practice not over thinking it. I'm down. I'm keeping it down. I seem to know what I'm doing. And, I have a good shot at hitting a new low heading into July. If not, if it bobbles again, it's 3 10th's of a pound away. I've got this.

    June Game Plan & Goals:
    • Continue weekly meal planning
    • Log daily in MFP - focus on daily calorie deficit goal of 500 This is very reasonable for me

    • Hit strength building exercise goal of 6 days, then increase to 7 - 7 day average 3
