@deepwoodslady
One if the very many reasons being retired is awesome is that I no longer can be tempted by unhealthy foods left in the workplace by well-meaning people. My office was located such that I had to walk past that kitchen area where all the food got left. Dandy candy this time of year, but also doughnuts any time, muffins, chips and dip... you name it. The sweet stuff usually wasn't tempting to me, but the potato chips always called my name very softly every time I'd walk by. I hated that.9 -

Total loss for October: A second week in a row with no gain, and even better - just a tiny bit closer to being back in maintenance. In fact, my scale weight is at maintenance for the first time since early September! I am still two pounds up for the month, but I think the tide has turned. Check with me in November.

I'm happy, yet I'm not at the same time as I'm trying to do very small weekly weight loss as a nursing mother. I've lost a dash of supply over the month. I've accounted for nursing calories. I don't know what's going on.

My name is Donna. I am 63 years old and I live in the Midwest of the US. I am 5β 5β tall.
Start Weight (from Sept 30th, 2023 ): 188.2
Goal Weight: 184.2 (4 pound loss)
End of Challenge Weight: xxxxx
Ultimate Goal Weight: 145-155 (Iβll know it when I get there!)
Weight in blue makes me blue because itβs a gain. Weight in fuchsia pink makes me feel cheery because itβs a loss. Weight in black means no change.
10/01-187.2-(Trend Weight: 189.2)-
10/08-186.2-(Trend Weight: 188.9)-
10/15-187.0-(Trend Weight: 186.6)-
10/22-185.6-(Trend Weight: 186.2)- I made a little more progress than I realized for the week. I love doing my daily weigh-in challenges, but my weekly oneβs really give me the bigger picture, as does my trend weight. Iβve really had a tough week with cravings. While thatβs not completely out of the ordinary, it has been extraordinarily worse than usual. Iβm learning that even one tiny bit of sugar triggers me which is sad. @Rubyred427 , I really like the idea of your printed βmenusβ to choose from. It would feel a bit like a restaurant and a splurge to me to see all my choices so clearly.
10/29-185.6-(Trend Weight: 185.6)- Well, as you can tell by the nice drop in my trend weight, I did pretty good this week, until I didnβt (last night). I ended up going out to dinner with my DD and ordered everything wrong and then cleaned my plate. In the olden days, that would have made me a good girl. Nowadaysβ¦.yeah, not so much. Hopefully lots of water and TMI will help me before my final end-of-month weigh-in two days from now. Ugh, chasing my own tail, yet again.
10/31-xxxxx-(Trend Weight: xxxxx)-
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

πππIβm a 5β2β, soon to be eligible for Medicare girl from the Pacific Northwest. Took a βbreakβ from weighing and logging over the last few monthsβ¦ always a mistake! Gained back 6 or 7 pounds. Time to get back on track, one jug of water at a time! One pound a week seems like a good goal for October!πππ

(I don't apparently know how to quote π³)
Congratulations on your little one! Hope its not amiss to offer a thought about supply. I'm a nursing mother, too, but my baby is sixteen months so its less critical. I think La Leche League recommends no less than 1800 calories a day for an exclusively nursed infant, so maybe that's why your supply took a hit. π€· But you can increase your supply with plenty good calories and fluids for a week or so and then resume. Looks like what you're doing for weight loss is working great!

Thank you @Farmeress I'm at~2900-3000 cal average day for the last few weeks and still losing too quickly for my liking. It is saddening & frustrating to produce less milk than a month ago. I need to shed some lbs but would like to take the time to do so.
Congratulations on your quick loss though!2
