What's your OnPlan streak?
How many days in a row have you been on plan?
Me I'm 77/77, and yep, that's a boast! It's also a streak I don't want to break, so posting it keeps me to it.

Congratulations on your new streak!
77 days ago I was 225, my re-start weight but because I never quite made it all the way down last time, I still use that startweight as my overall startweight.

Well, lets see. How many days are between March 4th and December 25th? 243. I made it 243 days without cheating...or going off plan. Now I make it about 10 days in a row before I think I deserve to indulge in something sinful. Though I still count everything, and try to average every bite into my plan.

Today will make 33/33 for me! Yay!
LoriBell, if you have allowed for something sinful every 10 days, then that is a part of your plan, which makes you OP! I think it's a good plan, and a good boost to your metabolism to keep it running high!

Uh oh, I don't think I have been on plan consistently the whole month. I will have to do better at that.

I have done 21 days in a row and then I had to break down a nd have some low-fat frozen yogurt. It is not on my plan,I know that is not a terrible
off plan item but nonetheless. So for the past 5 days I have been on plan even on easter so hopefully my streak will continue.

Huh, I don't know, I don't keep track of it. It can't be very long. I'm just not that kind of perfection. But it keeps getting better all the time. I guess if I plan to go with the flow and plan to make mistakes and gradually learn, that kinda makes me actually on plan?

I'm with Julie on this one. The "plan" has to be something that I live with forever, and I guess I'm still working through that. I guess I can say with confidence that I've been mindful of my plan development since February 10, where I started my food journal. In my head, this is all practicing for maintenance ... where the plan has to be a habit.

Today is day #237 without fail.**
Which (quickie calculator jotting) I believe makes my average to be 1.775 pounds lost per week in that time. That sounds right to me. When I did this calculation after the first few months, I was losing what is a lot to me, over 2lbs a week on average. Then for months this late winter/early spring, I calculated that my rate had fallen to 1.4 lbs per week. Recently I began eating about 100 more per day and doing a lot of cardio, so it's gone up closer to 2 these last few weeks.
**I have not deviated or cheated in this time, though I have, several times, realized that I counted calories in error at various and regular points (both underreporting and overreporting). I just leave it as is in my notebook and start counting those items/meal combinations correctly when I've realized this. I assume also that there are other errors I have not realized, but hey, I'm trying not to be capital-C Crazy here :-) I do what I can.
