    Success of the week: Had a very busy week, weather was beautiful so I spent a huge amount of time working in the yard and flower beds almost every day. By looking at my weight this morning I guess I burned a lot of calories! I will continue my 100 calories a day increase, trying to find the elusive sweet spot!

    struggle(s) of the week: had dinner with friends several times this week, all people who know I eat low carb, so they try to keep that in mind when they menu plan. Bringing a giant mixed salad has become my contribution to dinners, then I just add whatever protein is being served. I have been asked so many times “when are you going to go back to carbs?” It seems to freak people out a bit when you answer “never”. I feel so much better without eating all the starches and sugars!

    Happy Friday everyone, have a great weekend!

    Success(es)/struggle(s) of the week: Water retention, bloating, and significant daily weight fluctuations are driving me crazy. It's difficult for me to note my progress if my weight keeps going up and down like this (even if I am watching trends through an app). I'm trying to find the root of this inflammation and eliminate it at the moment to see if I have to make some diet changes. I would rather be closer to the lower end of my range, so I'm working to get there.

    HEAVIEST weight: 175.4 in early 2013.
    Total Weight lost: 30 pounds
    Time it took to lose: ~6 months
    How long in maintenance: Since July 2018 -- but with some fluctuation outside of goal range.
    Maintenance weight range: 142 - 148 (and not sure that's the right answer)

    Average weight recorded from 2017 (12 months): 163.8
    Average weight recorded from 2018 (12 months): 150.7

    Average weight recorded from January: 148.4
    Average weight recorded from February: 146.3
    Average weight recorded from March: 143.2
    Average weight recorded from April: 143.0
    Average weight recorded from May: 144.1
    Average weight recorded from June: 145.6
    Average weight recorded from July: 146.5

    Average weight Week of...
    July 29 - August 4: 144.6
    August 5 - 11: 144.2 (only average of August 10 & 11 as I was away on a dive trip and nowhere near a scale most of the week)
    August 12 - 18: 145.6
    August 19 - 25:
    August 26 - September 1:

    Success of the week: My weight was pretty rock steady for most of the week, at least until this morning. My average weight this week is exactly my scale weight from a week ago. I put a couple pounds on after the dive trip, but then stayed steady and took it back down a bit, but this weekend....

    Struggle of the week: I was up less than half a pound yesterday, and today up over five pounds from that to damn near the top of my maintenance range. I'm guessing salt, so we'll see how I recover the next few days.

    August 3rd: 160.2
    August 10th: 160.2
    August 17th: 159.7 (trend 161.1)

    Success(es)/struggle(s) of the week: It was a good week to start using a weight trending app, as is evident from the spread. Having six grams of salt one day followed by being a bit parched the next, etc, through the week made for some interesting swings. I'm aiming to gain half a pound a week until hitting the bottom of my range, but given my logging I'm undershooting it a little bit. I got in my daily workouts even when I really didn't want to, and my sleep schedule is slowly adjusting to being the opposite of everyone else in the house. Fun times.

    Have a great week, everyone!

    :

    Success(es)/struggle(s) of the week: My weight is a little low again this week with both my scale weight and my trend weight being under my range. I was up some yesterday and then back down again today. I'm still just going to blame it on the heat. We have been having highs over 100°F for the last couple of weeks with heat indexes over 105°F so it has just been too hot. I've been feeling really good and getting some nice runs in though. I just need to be eating a little more to compensate. The problem is the things I like to eat when it is hot are usually pretty low calorie. I'm not too worried about it though. I know that when the weather starts cooling down I will be wanting to eat some heavier foods. And I am not underweight so even though I am lower than the range I have set, I don't think it is too low.

    Success(es)/struggle(s) of the week: I ended up having a binge on Saturday following a very exhausting day (both mentally and physically), so I'm not too happy about that. However, I didn't stress about it too much and got right back into routine the following day and have been eating at a deficit since then. I will resume maintenance calories this Saturday. Note: ever since the binge, I have been dealing with some cravings. I am reflecting on this and the cause of the binge as well. Success: Even though I had the binge this weekend, I have been feeling surprisingly lean lately, so that's great.

    Success(es)/struggle(s) of the week: Pretty good week.. I’m liking being able to have some indulgences and still keep it around 123. I did bump my calories down the last 2 weeks, as I was noticing a creep towards the top of my maintenance range. Things seems to be coming back down. It’s my daughter’s birthday party this week, so I’ll be busy running around but also be enjoying some yummy foods and treats. Hopefully everything with even out between being extra active but also taking in more calories.

    Success/Struggles: Big week. I am trying a period of mindful eating (not tracking). I'm happy so far. My weight is up a little, but it is expected. I started weights again, most de-load, which is probably why I'm retaining water. Given the soreness level of my muscles, I'm retaining enough water to fill a bathtub. Mostly my focus diet-wise is eating more (much more) fibrous vegetables, and hitting my protein goals.

    BUT my trend did jump up almost 1.5lbs in a week, that is a big jump! Still in my zone though. And it is about the same as my monthly average weight, so I think I just actually had a dip during my deload, I didn't retain as much water, you know? I'll keep an eye on it. If my trend still is going up in a few weeks I'll know that I need to keep tracking, otherwise I'll start gaining.

    Also despite my weight being up, and me knowing I'm probably retaining water, my stomach was the flattest I've ever seen it today. Less pudge/bloat/whatever. Like in my clothes, it looks notably smaller, more than last week. I wear the same two pair of leggings every time I go to the gym, I was bloated and muffin top-ish last week, and relatively flat this week. Same pants, same time of day, same mirror, same food...it felt so good :)

    Success(es)/struggle(s) of the week: I was in the 131-132 all week although up today and I know why. Went out Friday night and had 3 drinks which I rarely do, got a attacked of the munchies and while I didn't overdue I had a little more than I should have. I know it's mostly water weight and should come off by the end of the week. I was right back at watching my calories on Saturday .

    Successes/struggles: Hmm - August has not really been a good month for me weight-wise. To be honest, I’m just happy to still be in maintenance range. I must remember to give myself some credit though so I will say that I am pleased to have kept up the activity levels. After sustaining a hand injury this week that scuppered any weight training or yoga, I added an extra couple of runs into my schedule so that’s something I guess. Onward for a better September!

    Have a good week everyone x

I'm starting to settle into night shift and while there's room for improvement I've been getting sufficient sleep. I got in all my cardio and weight this week - the fitness center at work is empty in the middle of the night, so I feel like it's my own personal gym. :)

    Avg wt for 2019 is holding at 154.2. It was climbing. Now it’s holding at 154.19.

    Success(es):
    FOUR MONTHS in maintenance. Figuring it out. Lack of exercise due to Illness & traveling for 2 weeks (although I was careful food wise) added up to an increase in my weight of 2-3 lbs. I’m whittling back down again!
    * Workouts are a routine now & I’m enjoying them. Making progress!
    * Sleep is Vastly improved!! The workouts are making me sleepy earlier, I think!
    * Food is going well. Prepping at home!
    * Creating art which is a sign of how my self-care is going, stress level is good.

    Struggles:
    Appetite was problematic at times the past week. Possibly working out IDK Seems to be under control now, which is a relief.

    Thinking about: What causes “mouth hunger” & “wanting to eat.”?

    Current plan: Keep at it until solidly under 155. Then revisit Maintenance Range goal.

    I hope you all have a great week!

    Success(es)/struggle(s) of the week: My scale weight is back up in range and my trend is moving up a little too. I was up a full pound this morning. We had a birthday party for my Dad's 82nd birthday yesterday and I know that a little of that weight is water weight, but it puts me back in range so I'll take it. I have been making an effort to hit my calorie goal every day this week. I've kind of unintentionally been eating a little below my goal. It's weird because a lot of the tips you hear when you are trying to lose, like don't eat if you are not hungry, don't always work in maintenance. At least they don't for me.

    Success(es)/struggle(s) of the week: My weight didn't really change this month but I'm glad that it's a bit less than it was in July. I would like to be closer to 58 kg again, cause I feel 'fat' currently. I know that 1 kg shouldn't make a big difference but my jeans feel a bit tighter now somehow, so that 1 kg might count actually.

    August 26th: 47.8 kg (105 lb)

    Success(es)/struggles of the week: My weight is trending down again in spite of going out on Tuesday and Saturday. I would be happy to be over 48 kg but I am feeling good and I have bags of energy.

    I am struggling with feeling a need to compensate for treats with additional exercise. I know I don’t need to – I’m actually trying to gain a pound or two – and guilt is not a healthy approach to food. But the habits of losing weight are so hard to unlearn. For instance, yesterday I had an ice cream while I was out in the afternoon. It was just a small cornetto type of ice cream so probably less than 200 calories, but later in the evening I just felt I had to power up the laptop and do 15 minutes cardio. I don’t think I’m actually developing an eating disorder but I do need to convince myself that I can just enjoy treats and only take action when/if I gain more than a couple of pounds.

    I've kind of unintentionally been eating a little below my goal. It's weird because a lot of the tips you hear when you are trying to lose, like don't eat if you are not hungry, don't always work in maintenance. At least they don't for me.

    I so agree with the section above, I keep eating a little less than I could, I find it hard to estimate exercise calories so always err on the under estimate out of habit.

    Average weight still creeping down. I'll take that as a success! I think I'll see my weekly tuesday weigh in drop down a bit over the next week or 2 if I remain consistent with what I'm doing.
