Add me too. My diary is never perfect but I love feedback and will give support whenever I can. :)

Huh I will have to try the reset thing thanks! It must have been the way I was standing. I have become obsessive too, but I usually only weigh once and keep that.

Hello and welcome. I have only been here since the end of January ... I think you will love it!

That's great!

Welcome back! :)

@Phrick We are bringing meals to a family from church and the daughter is vegan, so we are accommodating that. I bet your friends would be happy to adjust the meals if you told them. It's not easy doing something different but people really want to help, usually. Hope you feel better soon!

Yep, had that happen too. I've really only overloaded on carbs a couple of times since I started this at the end of January. The motivation to NOT feel sick is pretty strong now.

My youngest wanted to make cupcakes together. No problem, I don't care at all about the cake. But the frosting somehow got licked off 2-3 of those cupcakes. There's my confession!

Thank you for all the suggestions! We have a tea here in Seattle called Market Spice that I used to drink a lot, it's a lot like chai, but I got really tired of it. I think I will try some of these mixes you all have suggested.

16 basketballs, what?! (21 pounds) Fun, thanks!

Congrats on your success. I join others above in wishing you the best in your upcoming surgery.

I need to get back to jogging! It used to be my go-to for exercise, but I've gotten out of the habit.

Pre-diabetes is what got me motivated enough to change my eating habits. I always wanted to lose weight, but somehow it didn't click until I really got a good old-fashioned talking to from the doctor. My grandmother had diabetes and even though I was "only" 40 pounds overweight (now I'm sitting at about 20 pounds…

That's great!

Okay folks, I should know this by now but what kind of beef broth are you guys drinking? Buillon cube in hot water? Something more special? I haven't done this yet because the thought of it didn't sound appealing, but my snackiness is getting the best of me lately.

We are going camping this weekend too. At least it is only a couple of days.

That is awesome and so encouraging for others who are just starting out, like me. I have really appreciated you sharing your knowledge and help with everyone. I've benefitted so many times. Way to go!

This is such a good challenge for me! I'm being meticulous and my diet is not as good as I thought. Darn those baked chips and candied nuts. Okay, so this is actually a really good practice for me. Thank you to the OP!

If you have Brianna's, their Real French Vinaigrette is zero carb.

I have not been at this for six months, but this happened to me once after several weeks with no loss. I wish it would happen again. :)

Sure, why not? I log pretty much every day, but I need to tighten it up, been relaxing a bit lately and not counting each and every bite.

Love this one! Great job.

Yeah @samanthaluangphixay, I would ignore that too 30 minutes after eating! This is just the weirdest feeling for someone who is used to having that happen.

Interesting stuff you all are sharing! I like the idea of not eating when I'm not hungry and am still trying to get past the whole 3 meals/day expectation. But the thing I struggle with is that the hunger cues I get now are so different. I don't have the rumbly stomach, it's more of an empty feeling. Does anyone else feel…

My scale did this recently and I felt like it would never move again. Up, down to previous weight, up, down to previous, then finally it started moving past my original weight but in the TINIEST SMALLEST MOST UNNOTICEABLE increments ever. Sooooo slooooow.

That is low blood pressure, wow! Mine rarely goes under 125/75 although I haven't checked it lately.

The wedding cake is BEAUTIFUL! Good job! My new NSV is a little weird, but since I noticed it I'll mention it. I've never had a problem with my seatbelt rubbing my collarbone before, but now I'm noticing how uncomfortable that is. Maybe that's not really an NSV, huh? :) And my wedding ring comes off without running cold…

You can add me if you want. Welcome!

16 pounds and none in the past couple of weeks now.

Yes this has been my experience too. Since I started this WOE at the end of January, I can always count on seeing my weight go up before my period. And all through it. It usually drops back to normal at the end and then another pound or two off.
