    Day/Weight/Comment
    03/06 …..177.8….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND

    03/07 -177.4- (Trend weight 178.7)

    03/08 -DNW- (Trend weight DNW)

    03/09 -178.8- (Trend weight 178.8)

    03/10 -178.8- (Trend weight 178.9)

    03/11 -179.6- (Trend weight179.2)

    03/12 -180.6- (Trend weight179.5)

    03/13 -180.4- (Trend weight179.7)

    03/14 -181.0- (Trend weight179.9)

    03/15 -181.2- (Trend weight180.3) Too many carbs though the calories were okay. I’ve been spending ALL my time on the computer shopping shopping shopping for the Reno project. Since I live in the boonies with no real stores it’s a chore to shop and choose every little detail for a primary bedroom with ensuite bath and new walk-in-closet (instead of double closets). Trying to find the best prices too, of course, and hopefully a lot of it will be free shipping. I really need to fit in my exercise which I have not been doing. This whole thing is just a recipe for disaster. I must find time for me and my goals! I usually don’t weigh on Fridays due to my school schedule with the grandson, but I was able to fit it in today at a reasonable hour (10:10 am). I’m definitely not going to hit my goal of “lose ANYTHING” this round since tomorrow is the final weigh-in. Disappointing but eye-opening!

    03/16 -181.2- (Trend weight180.4) That’s a 3.4 lb gain this round. This is NOT how it’s supposed to work! Ah well, off to the next round. It’s got to be better than this one!

    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

    SW RND 253 246.2
    3/7 - 243.6
    3/8 - 242.8
    3/9 - 242.4
    3/10 - 243.6 (Hubby and I got a Peloton ride in and did 10 minutes of upper body strength yesterday. Felt good to get back to it as we'd taken a break from most things for almost a month.)
    3/11 - 243.2 (Work from home day today. Feeing the urge to snack. I will ride the Peloton here shortly.)
    3/12 - 243.6 (Rare morning that I forgot to weigh, by the time I did I already had my bra on, but no biggie. I did have a big pasta dinner last night and some chips. I also worked out for the third day in a row. Feeling good but need to be a bit more disciplined with the food. I'm tracking until dinner and then stopping and that's not going to work.)
    3/13 - 243 (Not much to say today. Day was fairly on track but I ate the large sub at night instead of the medium one. Had a dentist appointment.)
    3/14 - 243.4 (I have soccer tonight and I just might ride the Peloton too. We shall see!)
    3/15 - 243.8 (TGIF. Really looking forward to a mostly relaxing weekend ahead. Hope to fit in a lot of exercise.. the weather is beautiful.)
    3/16 - 242 (OK, a good spot to end this round. Weather is beautiful here. Lucky us!)

    It seems as though Jaine was unable to post from the ship. @musicsax ?

    That’s right. Jaine said she’d post 254 while she still had service. Forgot about that. Well, I think @itladyee figured it out. Hope we don’t end up with two.

    Forgot to post yesterday!


    During my trial round I ended up .2lbs above where I started. But confirmed alcohol is what has been holding me back. To my surprise, this morning I jumped below my starting weight from last round! I only weigh the 1st, 5th, and 10th days officially to keep moral up for me. I may check as im feeling it in between those dates but don't record it. I'm off for a weekend with friends and my goal is no more than 2 drinks a night, if i feel like it. Im also working on not drinking just because everyone else is, as I tend to do. Last week I went a bit crazy multiple days because I didn't want to be the odd man out. So I've bought some zero calorie sodas to take with me so I have an alternative 'fun' drink. I prefer moderation to full elimination (to avoid binge crave eating), so I'm giving myself a daily limit if I end up wanting to have an alcoholic drink.

    Goal: 1-2lbs

    3/7 278.8
    3/11 281.0 - Well this weekend I kept my alcohol goal but really struggled with keeping up with healthy food choices while out of town. I grabbed way too many snacks for the road, including an old habit of a large bag of cheetos (that inevitably got eaten in one sitting). But it was a very relaxing weekend and was much needed mentally. Got back on track with my eating today and ready to hit the next 5 days hard!
    3/16 278.4lbs - I'll take it! Even if it isnt a full pound. I have also been monitoring my body composition and in the past month my muscle mass has gone up 2lbs and my body fat down roughly 4lbs! So, im making progress even if the scale isn't snt moving like I'd like it to!
