Thanks for the tip, Lisa. Unfortunately, the protein powder often settles at the bottom. Maybe I should only use one scoop in my small blender. Unsweetened applesauce is stellar :).

The directions on the container of my protein powder says to use 2 scoops, but I always use only 1 or less scoops of sweetened protein powder. 🧋

Wowser! I don't know what my body was up to this week, but I lost SIX pounds!! I'm now at 292.5lbs.
I'm guessing its because I had a few days of eating junk food, and my body went for a hard reset or something, but that was unexpected!!
I'm now less than 30lbs to a target I set a while back. My local cinema has 4D seats, with a weight limit of 265lbs. People can go on them while heavier, but apparently the functionality is limited, so I've been wanting to be 265 or under so I can go on one and enjoy it fully. It'll still take me a while to lose the 28lbs I need to be under that, but its in touching distance now…

today’s weigh in-
Starting weight: 317.6
Current weight: 275.2
Tough week for me because I actually gained a pound. These kind of weeks make no sense to me and frustrate me so much because I worked out, I ate well, I stayed active & I still gained a pound! Ugh it’s so annoying. Like the only time I can think of me straying from my diet was getting a popsicle at work because I didn’t want to be the one weirdo who didn’t take one. I was running 4 miles a day at the gym! It makes no freaking sense 😭 maybe it’s because I’m going through an immense amount of work stress because my manager is leaving and all her responsibilities are falling on me. I don’t know 🤦♀️ it just sucks so much when you try your hardest and you fail. 😣

Today is the first day in my 3 week journey where I felt hungry and ate things that I have not been eating. Not going to stress about it, but curious. Weigh day tomorrow

“Eating sweets, in moderation, can be part of a healthy weight loss plan. The key is to focus on portion control and mindful eating, rather than completely eliminating treats. Occasional treats can help you stay on track with your diet and prevent feelings of deprivation, which can lead to overeating later.”

Exercise💦: 5 hours this week
[It's been a "wonky week" for me… not been able to concentrate on my food - eating healthy, but portion control was off - or exercise. Been taking iron pills for my anemia, and I made a delicious beef and bean stew, the latter which added more needed protein. Last night I learned that an old "work buddy" from the 1980s died, we had been in occasional contact via Fb, and while he never looked well in his pictures (quite gaunt), he never spoke of being ill. Normally, an event like that would have triggered a snack binge… but my stomach felt "too off" to eat, Thank God.]

A 5-pound fluctuation in daily weight is typically normal due to variations in fluid and food intake, and even bowel movements. These fluctuations don't necessarily indicate fat gain or loss, but rather shifts in the body's water balance. Stress can also lead to weight fluctuations.”
“Daily weight fluctuation is natural. The average adult’s weight fluctuates up to 5 or 6 pounds per day. It all comes down to what and when you eat and drink, the type of exercise you do, and even your sleep.”
