I always get 2 weight spikes in my cycle. At TOM and at Ovulation. This is the only explanation I have for today’s weight. Wow! I can’t even. It’s huge this month.

Female, 59, 5'3"
MFP start weight Oct 28.18 - 191
February end weight 154.4
March goal: 150.3
May goal: 138.1
Ultimate goal: 112-115
Sunday March 01 - 155.3 - Starting up almost a whole pound higher than my February end weight, but definitely going to stay the course. I must have had something salty today, because I had 3 litres of water and am still thirsty, I normally have about 1.5 litres (=6 8oz glasses).
Monday March 02 - 156.8 - My consumption and exercise calories out were on point, but I think that the jump could be due to liquid from yesterday and sodium.
Wednesday March 04 - 156.1 - Those 140s are looking elusive, but I will continue to try
Thursday March 05 - 154.8 - MFP said 139 in 5 weeks. I don't believe that, but it gives me hope : - )
Friday March 06 - 155.5
Saturday March 07 - 155.2
Sunday March 08 - 156.4 - Burned lots of calories yesterday so still had calories left over, but had pita pizza and drinks, so up over a pound. Hopefully lots of it is just salt, we'll see how the next couple of days go to undo this.
Monday March 09 - 156.7 - Maybe tomorrow this will go back down, I will work out extra today.
Tuesday March 10 - 157.2 - Not sure why I am gaining, hoping to see it come back down soon, I am working at it.
Wednesday March 11 - 155.3 - back to day one of this month weight, I'll take it.
Thursday March 12 - 154.2 - Much better.
Friday March 13 - 152.1 - New low! Really happy to see this number today.
Sunday March 15 - 154.5 - Right on track, so hoping to see this drop tomorrow.
Tuesday March 17 - 156.7 - Ouch
Wednesday March 18 - 156.1 - I almost let discouragement of this process get to me yesterday. I have to keep logging daily and dig deep to keep on doing this.
Thursday March 19 - 155.4
Friday March 20 - 156.5 - Ribs dinner last night.
Saturday March 21 - 157.2 - Still being self-indulgent.6 -

Heaviest weight: 175.4 in early 2013.
Original MFP starting weight (January 2018) - 168.2
March 2 starting weight - 144.0 (ten-day rolling average weight 144.3)
March goal - 143
Ultimate goal - Range between 142 - 148
I report scale weight and (ten day average weight).
March 2 (standing in for February 29): Back from vacation and... 144.0 (I don't trust the ten day average since I have been gone ten days and it would calculate from the nine days before I left, but it would be 144.3)
March 7: 143.8 (10-day average 143.7)
March 14: 146.2 (10-day average 145.2)
March 21: 147.0 (10-day average 146.7)

Total loss for March`: March hasn't been good to me - up 2.5 pounds. At least I'm still in my maintenance range, but moving farther from my goal the last couple weeks. Some is stress eating. I need to be mindful of that and CUT IT OUT.3 -

UPDATE: Ok now I’m thinking this is more than ovulation spike. This may also be confinement gain. Sigh.4 -

22nd - 200.0 I can't believe I stayed the same this week. I live in a small town and all the grocery shelves are still bare. I haven't been able to find any vegetables, frozen on fresh!!! Making a trip to Costco on Monday morning for the Senior hour. Hope I have some luck!

Please don't be hard on yourself this month. We all took a big psychological hit with the advent of this worldwide virus. With worry, stress, fear, weight fluctuations are to be expected! Just keep focused and be proud of yourself that you haven't given up. We're all in this together, we can lose weight and be strong for ourselves and for others.9
