MARCH Daily Weigh In!

[adillenal]

Goal for March is to maintain 140 as my highest UD bounce.
2/26 UD 141.2
2/27 DD DNW - at Houston Livestock Show
2/28 UD DNW - at Houston Livestock Show
3/01 DD 140.4
3/02 UD 138.4
3/03 DD 141.4 This is great after a cookie, brownie, ice cream UUAD
3/04 UD 141.6 There is my UUAD effect from Saturday
3/05 DD 142.8 Still paying for my cookies on Saturday
3/06 UD 140.0 Love Potato DD's

[SlowSure]

4 March 147.4 lbs
5 March 146 lbs (new low this time: Potato hack)
6 March 146 lbs (new low has held after an UD Potato hack)

I'm very pleased that this has held, this time last week I'd be bouncing above 150 lbs again It's probably not a problem for the next few days but as I'd like to try the PH for 10-14 days, I need to find a way to eat more calories on the UD. I know rice doesn't have much protein but I think I could eat more if I had 2x potato meals and 1x rice meal.

You are moving on down! Ready for Disney!

[brewstate]

Yay Sorren! New lows all round for several of you guys Flutter looks like you are just about waiving the 160's goodbye for good.

Dawn, I'm pretty sure you're supposed to be in maintenance. Have you told your body yet

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

WTG you losers!

Stay until the 16th, and make it my way. There's a jewelry party I think you'd enjoy. Looks like the 40s may be a thing of the past!

I'm loving maintenance. If maintenance brings me down another ten pounds, I'd love it even more.

Thanks gf, it's nice to see someone sees a downward trend. All I see is 160 at the end of January and 159 5 weeks later. Thanks for seeing the glass half full for me!

Thanks! I sure hope so...I'd like to see some lower 50s now. You are doing GREAT! That DD sounds painful to me, good for you!!!

Ack, I was going to say your UD calories sure look low...but then I realized you must be doing 5:2 with that many UDs? At any rate, I am so sorry you're frustrated!!!

It's incredible how well 5:2 is working for you!

[TryingJudd]

Thanks Soren and Flutter - yes I am trying 5:2 hoping that getting UDs under control will send the scale into motion. Doesn't seem to be working yet but it is early days and I was seriously hoping for a miracle!! It is not a miracle for me, at least not yet but I haven't given it a fair try yet. I keep losing months of time though not losing so every tweak or experiment slips me closer to summer when I was hoping to be much, much smaller. March 26th is my one year JUDDD anniversary. So far I have lost 37 pounds in 11.5 months. I am glad I have lost but man, oh man is this slow and frustrating. 3 pounds a month on average does not provide a lot of motivation.

[TryingJudd]

And Dawn - love that 5:2 and maintenance so agree with you! I want to be you - wahhhh.

[melisa82]

March Goal:194.6

3/1-202.6
3/5-201.6
3/6-202 This month is going nowhere fast! Ugh.

[calichris]

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. (They used to be 2-3 pounds). It's also taking me back to the early days when it's actually hard to eat all my up day cals!
3/6 - UD - 219.9 I am doing better than I ever have with calories and exercise and the sale is not doing much (haven't even hit my end of Feb. low) ... keep calm and carry on.

[vanilla_latte]

Going to try 5:2 for a week or two, depending on what the metal monster says. Monday and Thursdays will be my DDs.

3/01 - DD: 222.5
3/02 - UD: 221.5
3/03 - UD: DNW
3/04 - DD: DNW
3/05 - UD: 222.0
3/06 - UD: 224.5

Doesn't look like 5:2 is going to work for me, either.

Please. I came back here last March and here a year later, despite the surgery and subsequent gain, I haven't lost anything but 1 lb. as of today. THAT is something to not provide a lot of motivation. You have done fabulous.

[DianeDelgado]

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

Hey Vanilla - I know you have struggled. I wish I could kidnap the whoosh fairy for both of us -- really for all the JBs. It's so friggin hard sometimes to maintain motivation and a good attitude without the results. I greatly admire your fortitude because right now I want to find that whoosh fairy and choke her -- with chocolate.
