[brewstate]

February was awful but I have some new strategies and am determined to get out of the 150's. Goal 149.xx

3/1: DD 157.8
3/2: UD 155.8
3/3: DD 155.8 No bounce. First time I've stuck to my calories in a long time
3/4: UD 155.6 No reward for DD but I was soooo good!
3/5: DD 157.2 Mostly stuck to UD calories again. Will see progress soon maybe Mid month rapidly approaching though.
3/6: UD 155.4 Survived a passable DD with a potluck in the morning, a family trip to arby's, and a friend bringing over gormet cupcakes for us to eat, so all in all a WIN
3/7: DD 157.8 Skipped Breakfast, light lunch, and then dealt badly with some emotional stuff with a friend by falling head first into a huge bag of chocolate trail mix. Trying for a low low DD today
3/8: UD 156.6 Had a pretty non-existant calorie DD except for a few test bites of kid food so hope to see a drop soon.
3/9: DD 157.0 Come on!!!!

I ended February @ 170.8 (I think), after doing a 3 day PH. Then I went to Portland, and really didn't measure or weigh (food and myself)
Starting with a DD today, and maybe if I go through 2 full weeks of rotations I will try the PH again. It was easy, and filling...and, I saw weight loss....I just hope it stays next time (if I end it with starting good rotations )

3/6 DD 172.0
3/7 UD 170.2 sick with a cold, but will eat my UD #'s
3/8 DD DNW still sick
3/9 UD 169.0 feeling a little better

[DianeDelgado]

Everyone seems to be doing so well! You all keep me inspired. I don't post much, but I read everything. What a great group of women (and a couple of men )

[BaileysGirl]

Ended Feb at 193.5 did not make goal of 190.
Goal for March 185!

02-28 UD 193.5
03-01 DD 192
03-02 UD 191.5
03-03 DD dnw (forgot Mom doesn't have a scale)
03-04 UD 190.5 (started using the elliptical! 30 mins walking/10 mins ellip)
03-05 DD 191.5 (30 walk)
03-06 UD 191 (30 walk, 10 ellip)
03-07 DD 193.5 (30 walk, finally saw Bernice after 5 days!)
03-08 UD 191 (10 ellip)
03-09 DD 191

[LoCarbGal]

Ended February at 219.0.
Goal for March 211.0 - 8 pounds.

3/1 - 219.0 - UD (2592) Again with the high UD (sigh)
3/2 - 220.5 - DD (409)
3/3 - DNW - UD (2687) Yes I did it again! Enough of that already!
3/4 - 221.0 - DD (413) Extra calories & looming TOM.
3/5 - 221.0 - UD (2074) Staying under 2100 today, no matter what!
3/6 - 223.0 - DD (414) TOM - bleh
3/7 - 221.5 - UD (2047) TOM - not as bleh
3/8 - 223.5 - DD (420) TOM
3/9 - 222.0 - UD (TBD) So I think now I'm left with weight from adding in exercise. I'm okay with that.

Everyone is doing so great! Whether you're seeing wonderful losses or sticking with plan through frustrating scale times !

8 March 146 lbs (goodbye low)
9 March 145.4lbs (welcome but still gut issues)

Some ups and downs but overall, I'm more than 3lbs down in a week, I've broken the multi-week 150lbs (with a 2.5lb bounce) stall. So, although I'm feeling quite washed out on the potato hack, and my exercise intensity is embarrassingly poor, my intention is to stick with the PH until 17 March (OH returns from business trip). The PH seems to be improving little for me with the addition of rice (I'd developed a rash on potatoes only after a few days). I'm planning to make congee today as it's an UD.

I wish a good weekend to everyone

Woohoo, breaking a stall is EXCELLANT news! Good for you!!!!!

[melanie09]

3/1 ~ DNW ~ Power house workout cancelled due to son being sick
3/2 ~ DNW ~ Hubby's birthday and I was a very naughty girl, but what else is new?!
3/3 ~ DNW
3/4 ~ DNW ~ DD ~ Total Body workout
3/5 ~ 192.2 ~ UD ~ Went to a mother/son bowling event and unfortunately got into the cookies...
3/6 ~ 194.2 ~ DD ~ Cookies biting me in the butt... Total Body workout plus 1 mile jog on treadmill.... great dd!
3/7 ~ 192.2 ~ UD ~ Man, I was hoping that would be down a little more than that! Cardio boot camp workout
3/8 ~ 195.2 ~ DD ~ What a hateful weigh in the am! Hoping that's due to sore muscles and a late high sodium dinner.... Powerhouse workout
3/9 ~ 192.6 ~ UD ~ Why am I going the wrong way? I should be dropping under 190 by now? I checked to see if I'm in ketosis yet and I had a faint positive, gonna check again tomorrow.


I so wish I'd quit sabotaging myself everytime I get myself down into the 180's! Not sure what my goal will be this month... Let's see how long it takes me to get back to 187?!

[calichris]

March goal: keep up with moderate carbs and regular exercise; goal weight 213.7 (-6 from end of Feb. weight of 219.7).

3/1 - DD - 221.3 - hip hop aerobics
3/2 - UD - 220.2
3/3 - DD - 220.2 - weights and 1/2 hr treadmill
3/4 - UD - 219.9
3/5 - DD - 220.5 - glow aerobics - Noticing much smaller bounces since doing the moderate carbs.
3/6 - UD - 219.9 - doing better than I ever have with calories and exercise and the sale is not doing much.
3/7 - DD - 220.5
3/8 - UD - 220.5
3/9 - DD - 222.1 - see below

The scale non-movement is getting to me, even though I know better. Especially yesterday's completely undeserved "gain" (for a post-DD). Yesterday I didn't count calories or eat moderate carb (in part because I was away from home, in part because I got into the it doesn't help anyway so what's the point minset). I don't think it was an extreme UUAD or anything, but it was not what I want to be doing, so .... today is a new DD.

[LoCarbGal]

to you Christina. You're hanging in there and doing so great sticking to plan. I know you're going to be rewarded with some losses soon!

There was a range, and this seemed the most likely one to be true. However, i was so hungry, I had sushi and tortolini for lunch after I got the lower number. I'm sort of glad I'll be away from the scale for a week...

Thanks LCG! I needed that! I'm feeling blah and and like I don't want to do a DD today. Maybe I'll be open to a higher (up to 35%) DD if needed. We'll see.

I'm inspired by your progress, and I know you will be hitting that 100 lb. mark at any moment and I am looking forward to celebrating with you!
