    Hi to all. M stalled between 204-206, and just waiting to see the scale dip. Now on spring break after the long, late winter haul. Will get to see my daughter and grandson for a couple days. He was 3 months on 3/23. I’m excited to see them.

    In less pleasant news, I’ve accepted the fact I need new knees. Ugh. Hoping to get surgery scheduled for summer so I don’t have to miss much work.

    Good luck and don’t give up. Sometimes we stand still, but that’s not giving up.

    March total loss: 6.1lbs

    I’m happy with this overall loss for the month! This week has been TOM of me and it’s just wrapping up today, so I imagine next week I will have a nice loss that’s not currently reflected. And, to be fair to my body, I also had 2 days this week where I ate about 200 over my allotted calories because I was hungry and crabby 😅 So, any loss is still a victory!

    The weather is getting warmer here and I’ve gone for a couple of extra walks on my lunch break this week, which has been fun. Moving more helps keep me motivated to stick to my eating plan.

    But, I also did a bad job of planning one day this week - I had a friends’ kids over to bake a cake after work one day and I had had zero time to prep any food that I could eat. So, I ate cake scraps and frosting with the kids for dinner 🤦🏻‍♀️ Did I weigh or log any of those things? I definitely did not. But, I’m proud of myself because the next day I picked it right back up and that’s all that matters. Anyone can have an off day, it’s an off lifestyle that makes me sliiiiide right back to where I was in 2021.

    My husband and I are TTC but I have PCOS and we’ve had some life changes this year that have made my cycles get super out of whack. I had a 48-52 day cycle in 2020, then got serious about my health and lost a bunch of weight in 2021, which made my cycles go to about 34-36 days. They stayed there for 2 years (even with my weight regain) and then we moved to a new country and they went whacko again. 44-48 days for the last 8 months! Buuuut I have cut out all sugar (including fruit, sigh) and am aiming for under 50g of carbs a day (which is what my doc said will help with my PCOS) and this month my cycle was 38 days!! Hoping if I stick to this my health can get better again.

    Thanks for a great month! See you all in April!!

    I started losing weight on Nov 1 2023 at 263.4 lbs, class 3 morbid obesity.

    March SW = 224.4
    3/3/24 = 221.6 (-2.8)
    3/10/24 = 220.6 (-1)
    3/17/24 = 220 (-0.6)
    3/24/24 = 216.4 (-3.6)
    3/31/24 = 215.2 (-1.2)
    Total WL/G for the month= -9.2 lbs

    I hope I can see a lot of good progress next month in April too! I'm feeling extra motivated to push hard in time for my birthday in May and do some low impact exercise plus try out some new healthy recipes. Being healthier and more mobile are the only birthday presents I want 💖
