    Day/Weight/Trend Weight/Comment

    09/23 - 195.8/196.3
    Oh, good, finally something is working.

    09/24 - 197.4/196.6
    Crazy. But I did have a lot of carbs yesterday, and went over my calorie goal. Tomorrowโ€ฆ.

    09/25 - 197/196.6
    Let go, fat cells, let go! Jeesh. These bounce backs from low readings are disheartening. But at least I feel a bit more in control. Off to get my hair cutโ€”that should be worth half an ounce. ๐Ÿ˜‚

    09/26 - 195
    Such weird swings, but todayโ€™s # makes me happier. Iโ€™ve been eating either breakfast or lunch, not both, and I donโ€™t miss the missing meal, so thatโ€™s a plus. Also doing better with late-night snacks. Iโ€™ve been having a bowl of cereal with fruit & kefir at night to get in my collagen powder in, and that is very satisfying. Iโ€™ve cut out the junk snacking. Iโ€™m also starting to trust my gut, so able to go for longer walks. All good!

    09/27 - 196.4/196.2
    Crazy ups and downs. Oh well! At least Iโ€™m trending in the right direction finally. Going out for Italian lunch with DH, but Iโ€™ve already planned my orderโ€”a really good tilapia in wine and lemon sauce, and Iโ€™ll skip the pasta.

    If youโ€™re in the path of the storm, be safe!

    09/28 - 197.4/196.4
    I ate responsibly yesterday but was very thirsty later, so the food was salty and thatโ€™s the uptick. Not worried about it.

    09/29 - 196.4/196.4
    Ate a bit more than Iโ€™d planned yesterday, but not too bad.

    09/30 - 196.4/196.4
    It doesnโ€™t look like Iโ€™ll make my yearโ€™s goal of 170, but I really want to finish lower than last year. I am doing much better with snacking, so thereโ€™s that. Onward!

    10/01 - 196.8/196.5
    I had a laser procedure this morning to clear clouding in one of my post-cataract lenses, second procedure in two weeks. It all went fine, but I have a headache, which I always do after getting dilated and having bright lights in my eyes. I think Iโ€™ll take a nap. ๐Ÿ˜Š

    10/02 -

    @jspecies11 Any chance you have non-drowsy dramamine or Bonine in the house? That would be meclizine.

    I had a health setback yesterday and basically laid around all day with vertigo..

    DHโ€™s first bout with intermittent vertigo was probably around your age. He went to Urgent Care where they told him to take meclizine, chlorpheniramine, and pseudoephedrine.

    We ALL have good rounds and bad but that is part of life. Donโ€™t stay away, stay accountable. We donโ€™t judge, we support.-Jpv,2/13/19

    What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.

    This is NOT A DIET. Itโ€™s a LIFESTYLE.

    We are unstoppable not because we do not have failures but because we continue on despite them. - paraphrase of original quote by Beau Taplin

    9/23 131.5 Iโ€™m okay with this since no TMI since we got home
    9/24 132.0 Getting a facial today from my favorite esthetician.
    9/25 132.5 UGH my stomach was โ€œoffโ€ yesterday so I really didnโ€™t eat much. Also didnโ€™t track so need to do that. Going to Golden Corral this afternoon, ugh!
    9/26 134.5 Double UGH! I really didnโ€™t pig out at what I am now calling the Pigout Parlor. I had a small bowl of salad and a plate with a chicken thigh, a small piece of pot roast, 8 Brussels sprouts, and a serving of small fried shrimp. I wasnโ€™t even tempted to get dessert.
    9/27 135.0!!! Except for the โ€œheelโ€ of the me made sourdough I hardly ate anything- 2 eggs and 2 slices of bacon.
    9/28 134.0 Semi-fast Had my BP coffee, cream and one keto shake. I had planned to repeat today but a scorpion changed my plan. I didnโ€™t get stung and I did kill it but it resulted in cleaning and DH spraying. BBQ for dinner - beef brisket only
    9/29 134.0 Great Greek today. Edit-gave DGD#4 my manicure appt. I will need to reschedule.
    9/30 133.5 I have so much sourdough starter! As I told my daughter earlier, this is not an adventure which should be entered by someone trying to eat LOW CARB!
    10/1 133.0 I ate the end slice of the loaf of sourdough sandwich bread while it was hot. DH wasnโ€™t feeling well all day. This morning he has a podiatrist appointment.
    10/2 133.5 5 minutes ago DH was asleep in his chair. Jet propelled out of his chair and dressed and wants to take both cars to the car wash! Guess I need to get dressed!

    09/27 - 151.6 - Feeling good about this. I've already determined dinner and logged it, my breakfast lunch and snacks have already been eaten. We have a concert tonight but I think I will forego any beer since I'll have to be up early and I'd rather feel good this weekend. I have a busy weekend with that concert tonight, tomorrow we volunteered to take the VFD truck to be a part of the parade for Frontier Days in our neighboring community. Sunday BF's finals are due for his MBA - once those are done, he only has 2 classes left and 20 weeks of active school (fortunately his "off" week between classes also happens to align perfectly with our vacation). This is exciting. But with that, I have plenty of editing and helping him to ensure things make sense since this week has been super hectic with work for us both so it would be easy to make silly mistakes. I'm looking forward to this vacation if nothing more than to be relatively responsibility-free hah!

    10/02 - 154.1 - I'm holding on to water weight, I think. I've been drinking a gallon a day so far but my food hasn't been ideal. Yesterday I was within goal for fat and protein but was low on carbs and fiber (due to missing my last snack - I just blanked on it and was distracted being busy at work). I won't be around for the next round so I'm hoping everyone has a great 10 days and I'll return on or after the 14th (I return to work the 14th but I'll be so busy playing catchup, I'll see if I can hop on here to check in) I'll miss you all! <3

    09/24 - I'm retaining a ton of water right now, it's all okay. Last week I only managed to be home and track macros/log Thursday. Every other day I was out with work travel (Monday-Wednesday) or running errands out of town (eating out on the go Friday) or out of town at a concert overnight (Saturday-Sunday). Whew, busy. This week Coach kept my macros the same since I couldn't really log with any accuracy last week. Next week she plans to up my macros and I can aim to hit those until I leave Thursday night. I will be gone the entirety of next round, I believe. We return home at about midnight the 11th so the 12th will be a wonky day of trying to get situated back home. The only plans we have this weekend are taking one of the VFD trucks to a parade which will require us eating out one meal but otherwise we'll likely hang out and relax. Things are really hectic here but I'll try to be better about checking in this round before I leave!

    09/26 - I'm very sore all over and I'm also a bit stressed so I'm not surprised about not dropping off. I feel like I'm also going through a bit of a body recomp. We are behind schedule at work on most projects I'm working on and then next week I'm traveling out of the country so they're going to be even more short-handed so they're really trying to do about 10 things at once and I don't work well trying to multitask. Then there's my normal pre-travel anxiety. Even more so that we're going out of country and I've never done that before. I am going with others who have experienced it multiple times who can guide me, but I'm still anxious. Then again, I get anxious with traveling within my own country and I've done it so often it's almost 2nd nature. I'm focused on hitting my macros with whole foods and moving my body, both of which I'm doing well with. I've also managed to meditate 3 days this week, although only for 2 minutes each. It's better than nothing, though, so I'm happy since I've completely slacked on meditation over the past month or two. I'll try to check in a few more times before the end of this round but I make no promises with how hectic things are. I'll be back after vacation if nothing else.

    09/30 - Water weight, I believe. Saturday I was severely lacking water due to an event and then there being no vendors for food or drinks (that's silly! It's hot out and an all-day event). Sunday was spent in but BF brought pizza for lunch. I took my lactose pills but probably still holding on to some bloat from that, as well. I did manage to get my water in yesterday so hopefully I'll see things start to drop off tomorrow morning assuming I can meet water goal today. Haven't heard from Coach but she said she was planning on increasing my macros this week again so hopefully I'll see those before I eat lunch. I have a meeting that goes until 1230 so my lunch will be at tad bit later than normal, but that's okay. Leftovers from yesterday so just reheating anyway. Feeling good in the gym and excited for vacation at the end of this week!

    9/23: 162.9 lbs
    Achieved my daily goals. Last round I achieved my daily goals on 8/10 days. This round I am going to try for 10/10.

    9/24: 162.2 lbs
    Didn't exercise because I didn't plan my day out well enough. Stuck to my calories though.

    9/25: 162.7 lbs
    Achieved my daily goals. The family had chocolate and cookies yesterday and I decided to have none. I did think of having one square of chocolate but I thought that would just unleash the chocovore in me and I would finish the whole lot. I wish I could be able to have just one square.

    9/26: 163.1 lbs
    Achieved my daily goals. Had a curry for dinner and I think the salt is bloating me up.

    9/27: 162.5 lbs
    Achieved my daily goals. I have been feeling like I haven't made much progress lately but when I look at my graphs the trend line is still trending down slightly.

    9/28: 162.9 lbs
    Achieved my goals even though it was pizza night.

    9/29: 164.0 lbs
    Did a bit of exercise but ate far too many crackers and cheese.

    9/30: 163.1 lbs
    Achieved my daily goals.

    10/1: 162.3 lbs
    Achieved my daily goals.

    10/2: 162.0 lbs
    Achieved my daily goals. It was another round where I achieved my daily goals on 8/10 days. Perhaps I should try for a 9/10 next. A 1.1 pound loss for me all up. I am satisfied with that.
