Alright here we go again. Last month was incredibly stressful and I lost no weight but lost 2% bodyfat which my trainer said is significant so this month I am tracking both.

Last month was a bummer so it's time to implement a new strategy. It's like ever since I hit the 170s I have plateaued at every 5 lbs or so. I listened to one lecture that said it is an insulin issue and the key is cutting out sugar completely, even fruit, and cutting out between meal snacks. I'm desperate enough to try ketosis or intermittent fasting this month, whatever gets results.
SW: 154.6
GW: 147
5/01: 154.6

5/06: 152.0
5/07: 151.0 officially more successful than last month
5/08: 152.8
5/09: 152.2
5/10: 151.0
5/11: 152.4
5/12: 151.8 Maybe my losses and stalls happen regardless of my strategies because my body is going to do what it wants to do to regulate itself on its own time. I guess all I can do is try my best to be healthier and hope that new lbs will eventually come off. I don't want to starve weight off or mess with my metabolism in a negative way. I just want to be a healthy BMI weight. Maybe stalled progress isn't necessarily failure but a very slow adjustment from a lifetime of obesity.

5/28: 153.6 Had some cashews and throat feels funny, possibly a little swollen. Me and nuts have a love/hate relationship.
5/29: 155.6 Cookout, lots and lots of meat
5/30: 154.8 I managed not to stall post TOM week, but I screwed myself on the 26th and 29th. If I've got my patterns figured out I have until June 4th before I go into regain mode, so I'd better make this week count.
5/31: 153.6
Total weight loss: -1 lb, but overall +4
I honestly believe if not for those 2 big gains last week I probably could have hit 149 this month and had a couple more June days of loss before regaining, thusly progress, but nope. Stupid food choices. I didn't get stuck after TOM though, so I hope this is a sign that the plateau is over and I will be able to lose new weight next month. I zigzagged my calories the first half of May, not counting but eating less for 2 days and not restricting the 3rd day and repeating the cycle. I like to think that was enough mixing it up that allowed me not to get stuck at TOM weight for an additional week, or like I mentioned before, maybe my body was going to do what it has to do regardless and that means plateauing and losing weight at it's own rate despite what I want.

I totally agree with you! As long as you are working for it, you are going to hit your goal. Being consistent is so important!

Yeah, you're right. I just get so bummed when I hit these stalls. After I lost the first 50 lbs it's been like a pattern of lose a few lbs - stall a few months. I assume that there's something I'm not doing right and when I think I find a solution it doesn't last long, the pattern repeats, so I'm wondering if there are other factors to consider. It's taken longer than expected to hit my goal, but I'm still determined to reach it.

It varies, but on average about three to four 16.9 oz bottles per day. I will usually heat up a bottle's worth in my mug and put a green tea bag in it, some days with a lemon slice and some days just water with lemon. For just plain water without tea or lemon, I'm not sure. It varies from day to day.

I guarantee you that if you start drinking a gallon of water every day (consistently) you will lose the weight.
