The opposite happened to me, My TDEE is in the range of 250-400 higher than expected from all the calculations, All I figure is that I pace around/fidget more than a normal person my height/weight/age is calculated for. Maybe the opposite is true for your husband, Even with the extra exercise maybe the daily movement he…

It happens, I had a few months where I stopped counting and I only gained 7 pounds, I've already lost 2 of those in a few weeks so really in the scheme of things just jump back on and you'll be back to where you were in no time at all!

I've been eating 1-2 cookies a day lately and I care about my health, But biscotti is damn delcious too.

I think it's generally natural variation in bodies, activity and other stuff that can be hard to track all the time. I'm for one losing quicker than expected and I can't pin point why exactly other than maybe I've walked more or the few things I estimate are lower than I expect(1400 is suppose to be 0.5 and I'm closer to…

Might be a odd one. But re-losing some maintaince rebound weight without getting obsessive! No doubt that I consider watching my calories/nutrtion a hobby, But I usually take it to a extreme and obsess over the details. This time I'm actaully trusting the process and not worrying about having some cookies or chocolate or…

This thread makes me realize I'll never be perfect so it's okay to enjoy being "good enough", Being a bmi of 23-24 isn't fat and having a B stomach isn't the end of the world.

Maybe not a "Food" as such but I really miss the Mrs. Dash tomato basil seasoning, Never have found a substitute for that and I loved it on all kind of things. I bought up like 10 containers when our store put them on clearance

When I'm losing weight I allow two maintaince or maybe 200-300 over if it's a super exceptional day per week. I aim for a slightly lower goal the rest of the time so it averages out to a loss(1300-1400, maintaince 1700-1800 = 1400-1500 average which is roughly 0.5lbs a week). Keeps hunger at bay and allows you to have a…

Same thing happened this morning to me haha, 133.4 yesterday, 131.2 today. I guess I wasn't drinking enough water

My body is the same way, I can maintain 131-133 super easy, Even with a few rare very over days(like 3000) but once I get into the 126-128 range looking at food makes me gain back to 130...

I guess the opposite can be true too, Under/healthy fat at higher BMIs! I'm actually really curious what my bf% is I just don't have a opportunity to measure it right now

I'm the opposite, I eat less in winter and more in summer. Part is that fruit is cheaper in summer, and I love fruit. But it's a pretty identifiable trend for me, I live in the southen United States so it's warm here with mild winters if that means anything

I have one too, I thought I was the only person who did!!

Name: Elle How long in maintenance: on and off 8 months Goal maintenance range: 124-130 Current weight: 132.2 Current goal: 131 Recent success: Lost 1.5 pounds! Strategy for your goal: Stop mindless snacking and eat at a very slight deficit(100-300 under maintenance). I've been really good getting back into a deficit, kept…

I've been struggling with the same, I called goal at 125 but rapidly gained up to 130 and have been maintaining 128-133 since then which is a bmi of 23-24 for me, I'm pretty sure most of it is water/glycogen/food from eating more/late night snacks because I've been eating right and it's holding steady and has since May so…

Week of... May 5: 127.0 May 12: 127.7 May 19: 128.0 May 26: Mmh weight is still going up, I weighed 128-129 on the scale for most of the week and I really can't track down why just yet. I think it might just be fluctuations or a small increase somewhere...Possibly it could be as simple as I'm eating a meal later in the…

Week of... May 5: 127.0 May 12: 127.7 May 19: May 26: Struggle of the week: This week was rough, I underate the beginning of the week then had 3 days around 2500-3000. My average is up 0.7 pounds(my app says 0.4 gained) and I believe I gained something from that because I ended the week with about a 500 daily surplus…

I've been in maintenance for about a month and am already up 1.5/2lbs(0.4+ from my weekly averages) from my lowest. I'm sure some of it is water weight but I also did over eat several days in a row, It's seriously a struggle already so yeah..It's hard.

You're going to be losing and gaining weight, Even taking out fluctuations there are going to be times you will gain/lose real fat either on purpose or by accident. I really didn't expect that but a lot of long term maintainers have said this and it makes me feel a little more at ease to be honest

Name: Elle Age: 21 Height: 5'2 Total weight lost: 36 LBS Time it took to lose: 10 months How long in maintenance: 10 days +-, Been stopping and starting since the beginning of the year Maintenance weight range: 126-131 Average weight recorded from 2018: N/A I'm not sure of my averages for the last few months either Week…

Looking back over my week I realized a few days I ate a few hundred under because I was feeling a little sick and didn't have a appetite for awhile and I think my body was in fact evening out that deficit by being a little hungrier the last few days now that I think about it. Thanks everyone for the reassurance though

Same starting weight, Height and maintaining the same range as you. You look awesome!
