    Pretty happy with that! My deficits have been a little lower this week. Hoping it wont be up to far tomorrow, I have a work lunch at a Mexican restaurant, any input on calorie friendly things I can order?

    When I eat Mexican food, I immediately ask for to go box, as soon as the food is served, and put half of my meal in it. I eat that other half later that day or the next day.

    But that's just me, so far I'm not changing what I eat, just the amounts of it.

    Hi @LeannJeffers a couple of thoughts:

    1. I've examined numerous "challenges" that have ended, and what I do is look for those people who met their goal, then I go back to the beginning of the thread and watch their journey. Without exception, every one of them had days of unexplainable weight gain, sometimes a significant amount. So don't be discouraged here with the weight gain, it's a normal part of reaching our goals.

    2. It sometimes is helpful to review what went wrong if the weight gain is due to my overeating. I noramlly weight for stomach growls to eat, but maybe I waited too long and then overate a meal. Or maybe I didn't include enough protein in earlier meals, or not enough fat or whatever, so that I was craving some, and then overate it when I got it. Or maybe it's just normal eating of salt that has enabled water retention.

    Either way, we're rooting for you and look forward to seeing your progress over time.

    The weekend went ok, but today was rough. I expect the scale will reflect tomorrow what occurs when I skip meals and resort to the abundant processed snacks available at the office.
