Nice loss! Where did you eat? Jiggs dinner is so delicious. Unfortunately, I forgot to change the water on my riblets on Saturday night so it was saltier than usual.

I can't get tags to work and my brain is too shattered to figure it out today so I hope this gets seen ok.
Congrats on the loss! Losing when stressed and poor sleep can be hard.1 -

I did some mini walks yesterday but I didn’t start my watch so I am not giving myself a check mark. Today I have my diabetic check. I know my A1C is still in the non diabetic range. (I peeked at my results)

A bad week between some nighttime eating and higher sodium foods. Also, I think I have a mental block when it comes to being under 200. Every time I get there I lose focus and gain. Anyone else have a number on the scales that gives them grief?3 -

- Water: 120 oz
- Gym: yes - back & bicep
- Walk: no

- Fiber: 19g (25 goal)
* Thoughts: I’ve been incorporating a lot more fruits and vegetables in my diets. I fell really short on protein today. Which isn’t good because I had a really great workout at the gym in the evening. I will make sure I exceed my protein goal on Friday to balance it out.

Honestly, I haven't had the energy to really exercise as much during my non-gym days. I'm running around for work this week (I'm with facilities and accommodations) as I have 2 moves as part of a project so by the time I get home I'm wiped. I also have been playing a little fast and loose with my fasting times. I'll tighten up my diet this week and get past this little setback....Also, it's my TOM so that's fun too lol. I'll post my daily check-in later on tonight.3 -

Well done on your weight loss to date! That's quite an accomplishment!! But as someone who has gotten to goal weight or
close, a couple of times, if you don't have a plan for how to maintain, it will come back!! So although the mindset of losing weight is over, the process is not over. It has just changed to a maintenance mindset!
I'm 60 next month and I've lost and gained 80lb about 4 times! This time is different!!
I ve already started working on my maintenance plan and I will not be gaining any of it back!!!! Totally agree with your comment, maintenance mindset already activated!2 -
@ lindamtuck2018 Anyone else have a number on the scales that gives them grief?
Yes all the numbers that start with 18 something! I reached the 180s on November 27th last year and I'm sick of them!

I've become obsessed with the scales like you were!! I'm on and off 5 times a day!! .I see you lost a few more lbs since getting to maintenance, well done! Looking forward to joining you in maintenance but miss the competition in here!!1 -
Lol too funny I miss competing as well. It just kinda feels like I'm missing out on the fun.
Wait, why am I calling that fun haha.
Yup I've lost about 3 pounds since I hit Maintenance. The first two weeks were very tough mentally changing from a weight loss to a Maintenance mindset but once I realized everything will be OK, I'm way more comfortable0 -
