Day/Weight/Comment
9/29: 164.7 - Yesterday did a Jazzercise workout (cardio and light core) and a 2 mile neighborhood walk. Logged all my food and stayed within my calorie goals (did not eat back exercise calories). I’m trying out a size M workout leggings since my size L was falling down during workouts. I’m clearly in between sizes since I feel like a bit of a sausage in the size M.

@enlightenme3 - Your last comment about feeling like a bit of a sausage in size M is exactly how I felt today. My large clothes are getting too big to wear (a good thing) so I decided to try on a smaller size and, nope, I feel like, as you said, a sausage LOL. I'm definitely in between sizes. It made me think of a post from chublet25 that made me laugh at the time from a few rounds back.

Here's the quote ( @chublet25 - I hope you don't mind me reposting): "I'm definitely in that going-to-look-worse-before-I-look-better stage. The ugly duckling stage before the cute little yellow ducklings turn into pretty ducks and are only half way there."

At least we are closer to the "pretty ducks" than we were! LOL

Good luck @deepwoodslady amazing drop!

Day/Weight/Comment

9/29 73.4kg (164.8) No change is better than gain Autumn is finally here, leaves are falling, it's pouring down and windy. Time to make some soups !

9/30 73.4kg (164.8) Still no change, I ate maybe too many carbs yesterday, but nothing major, I'm happy with a status quo as I'm not really exercising, I do some yoga in the morning and go everywhere by ebike but that's more like a brisk walk than anything, well except yesterday when my battery was flat, that was some workout lol Yesterday evening, I switched my summer/winter clothes and I was happy to find clothes are easy to get into or a bit big so that's a nice. I'll wait till the January sales to get some new clothes, I'm hoping to drop a size (or two ) between now and then !

Trend goal for round 152.8
**********************************************
9/29 151.8 (trend 153.9) Starting this round with a drop is exciting but I don't think I'm going to change my goal weight, instead I think I'll track my trend weight this round too, to see if I learn anything from it. My trend weight drop last round was 3.2lbs, compared to the 2lbs change in scale weight I had. I spent most of yesterday at my mum's house restoring and refitting some skirting boards that were removed back last winter when her house got flooded. It was good to get it done so she can close that chapter and move on from it. Had a banana for breakfast and then nothing until 7pm as I was busy and didn't feel hungry so I ended up 200 under which might be why there's a drop today. Protein is concerning me, I'm thinking of changing my macros to reduce fat and raise protein, not sure if it'll work for me as I find fat really satiating but I'm worried about losing muscle and I don't want to reduce carbs any further as I get really lethargic when I go below 35%.

9/30 151.6 (trend 153.6) I went shopping for some new walking/trail running shoes yesterday, first time in clothes shops for about 18 months. I didn't find anything suitable so decided to browse for clothes, although I'm not really needing any as stuff I have that's been in storage is starting to fit me again. It was such a different experience to how I remember it in the past, I didn't cringe every time I saw my reflection and even tried on a few things and was surprised to find I'm down a jeans size and can fit medium size 12-14 jumpers without them clinging in all the wrong places! Went for an evening walk with hubby and a couple of drinks, gotta watch out, this is becoming a habit. Calories 100 over, binged a bit on cheese, ham and pickles and not enough veggies.

Day/Weight/Comment
9/29 - 72.9 - Still coming down from the weekend. Good eating yesterday although was hungry in the middle of the day. But powered through. Finally decided to switch my calories from very slow loss mode (-250kcal per day) to normal loss mode (-500kcal per day) now that my injury is starting to heal and I'm definitely becoming more active. And I've got my fitbit back on so I actually accounting for the calories I get by wandering around all the time. So although the starting calories are smaller, I'll probably end up in about the same place. I mean, I can always change it back again if I find it hard again.

9/30 - 72.9 - Turned out the dinner that I thought was going to be ~700kcals was actually ~1000kcals which completely messed my values up yesterday. I mean, it was 100% worth it as it was delicious, but still, and extra 300kcals I hadn't budgeted for was not a nice thing to realise.
