I haven't had a diet break since the 2nd week in December. When I overeat it usually means that I am past due. Will wait a week then start eating at maintenance for a week. In the past year I have only had 2 diet breaks so now is a good time to schedule one since I have 15 pounds left to lose and am in the healthy weight range for my height.11 -

@lesdarts180 on YouTube you can check out Eccentrics aging backwards for beginners. It is a safe and slow paced, full body workout. I find the stretching relaxing and it's very laid back.

Ordered in a nice meal and wine for dinner with hubs. Watched my portions, but can not be certain of the calories, so will err on the side of saying I was over.

So....the first few were OK, interesting, but nothing that rocked me. Until yesterday. Holy macaroni she was speaking to me! After my rant last week about gaining 2 pounds, binge eating, not losing any weight during February - let me tell you - I have new energy right now. I've actually listened to it twice through. Here's the cliff notes - hope it helps someone else too.- Learn to maintain. If you stay at the same weight for a month - celebrate it because you're maintaining! If all you do is go up and down and up and down, you're never learning how to maintain a weight. Better to stay at a weight than have the pounds creep back on.
- She talked about people (like me) who binge/overindulge, gain a few/several pounds, and then it takes a week or more to get it back off. She tracks her weight often and now understands exactly how her body will respond after she indulges. Because she knows exactly the outcome of indulging, she's not surprised what happens the next week or two. Therefore, (and I LOVE this line) you don't become angry, bitter, or resentful when your body does exactly what it always does after indulging. You knew going in what it was going to do. That is EXACTLY what I was last week - angry, bitter and resentful.
Really, I'm not expressing this very well - but for me, this really hit home. I did start weighing myself every day (which I know isn't a good idea for everybody) but I'm doing it to understand my own body's natural swings in order to avoid getting all angry, bitter and resentful about it next time.
It's Episode 473 if anyone wants to listen. Maybe I'm the only one who thought "wow" listening to it - and then listened to it a 2nd time taking notes! But if it helps someone else - then yay.
No passes so far this month - I am laser focused on being in the Winners Circle!
YES, @biketheworld, that was me! She is BRILLIANT ❣️❣️A terrific episode, I agree. I just keep flipping through until I find one that applies to me at that time.3 -
Yes x3
Today was absolutely a day where being in the UAC kept me disciplined. Pre-logging partway through the day helped me cut back on dinner portions and realize I had no room for chocolate or dessert... plus I needed to add a 15 minute living room walk (on top of my earlier outdoors walk) to hit my goal for today's calories. Feels good!7 -

@MadisonMolly2017; @SummerSkier; and @thabit11
Thanks for your concern about my unexpected absence. Yesterday was just a technical failure. I did a post for March 5, but it has disappeared.
There have been past occasions when I messed up or life got the best of me.
I appreciate your concern!!

On the other hand, today was Pass Day One. Mostly because of a planned meal with extended family in memory of Uncle Gene who died last month.
All is well! Life continues on its natural cycle and reality.
