    It’s that time of the month. Not surprised to see a slight uptick in weight. I know it will drop off in a few days or a week.

    Strava has monthly challenges for walking, running, swimming, cycling, and a lot of the challenges are sponsored by corporations which will give you discounts on items.

    There are also MFP cycling and running groups on Strava. If you are interested, contact @quilteryoyo or @AlphaHowls (on MFP) about the running group, or if you join Strava (they have a FREE option), you can go to the running group directly: https://www.strava.com/clubs/mfpmnthlychlng

    @dannytrees1 respect for the turkey plan. My sweetie roasts two chickens every week and it’s a huge help
    @Latitude27N sounds scary but also like you’re prepared to handle it. Hope it all goes well. You’ll drop that 1.8, no way you ate 6000 extra calories even if you WERE stressed!
    @MercyRoth welcome to your new name
    @CorvusCorax77 my first month here as well. I so ‘hear’ you on non-linear weight loss but inches are pretty fabulous too!

    I spent yesterday in the great outdoors of western Oklahoma where it was a balmy 80 degrees. In February. Yikes. Made generally decent food choices, turned down a restaurant dinner so I could stay on plan AND didn’t dive into the entire bag of Doritos my sweetie bought when I found myself ravenous and without available snacks. Actually counted the number of Doritos, logged them, and stayed within my calorie goal. 226.4 this morning, starting to get rid of the salt-and-travel weight.

    @dannytrees1 yum turkey! I'm roasting a chicken today
    @Latitude27N hugs for your furbabies and you for the job, hope that went well

    Had the furnace guy come yesterday, air in the lines and low pressure. He was kind enough to show me what to do next time to prevent a service call.

    Have a great day!

    Starting Weight: 196 Feb 2024
    2025 Goal Weight: 170
    Feb goal: below 182

    Feb 1: 184
    Feb 2: 183.5
    Feb 3: 183.5
    Feb 4: 183.5
    Feb 5: 184.5

    From one day to the next I don’t know why the scale is doing what it’s doing. Yesterday was similar to any other day. I have no clue why it went up.
    Meanwhile I had a thought about goals. Rather than aim for an ultimate goal weight, I might try and aim for an ultimate pant size. That way differences due to muscle building will not have a negative impact on goals. I might go out and buy a cheap series of jeans in decreasing sizes so I can track progress.

    @MercyRoth good idea on the Jean sizes.
    I have kinda done the same with my Wranglers.
    All my old sizes have become just work jeans.
    I thought my weight would be lower today… but it’s up a tad.
    Keep it going, it will change ⛄️

    Started July 1 at 212 lbs
    UGW is 175 lbs
    Feb. goal is 175 lbs

    Feb-1-178.2
    Feb-2-177.6
    Feb-3-177.4
    Feb-4-175.9
    Feb-5-176.7

    Have a great day everyone

    @ManifestingToday you are so right, I’ve been maintaining since Jan. 1st! Even with increased exercise at home and at the gym.

    I started weighing my protein and starches this week so it’s possible I have been overeating even nutritious foods.

    I’m going out to lunch with friends today then have a birthday dinner tomorrow night. I will look at the menus to help me make decent choices beforehand!

    Have you ever tried "calorie cycling"? Every time my scale gives me the same weight (at-least 3 days in-a-row}, I shift to calorie cycling, and I've NEVER hit a true plateau, yet. Calorie cycling has worked (for ME) EVERY time...

    Meal swapping (ex., eating breakfast for dinner and dinner for breakfast) also seems to help, sometimes.
