NicholsFamily - I hope your ups are done now and you start going back down again! How are you feeling? Hope you didn't catch the bug.
Brd88 - another bump for me today, hoping not for you (mine was deserved!)
Leah - yay to no jump up after your Paddy's day celebration. I hope your cakes went down well and that you and your hubby had a lovely night for his birthday. I really hope to be with you in onederland soon!
Kfunk - hope you break even or better today, but either way, your numbers are heading back in the right direction!
Ophelia - well done on taking it slow with your new trainers and following advice from the shop. How long does your 5 mile walk take you? It must give you a fantastic step count!
Nancy - Sometimes lazy days are needed, hope the drop sticks!
The search for onederland goes on! Wasn't fully on it yesterday, had a really good daytime in terms of food, leaving the office for a middle of the day walk and felt good. Got home and all I could think about was the damn mini chocolate pudding in the freezer. Ate dinner, the thought didn't go away. Ate some nut and seed mix, the thought didn't go away, ate some more mix (too much) the thought didn't go away. So, ate the pudding too. Now, the nut and seed mix and pudding are gone! So, for the rest of the week I won't have any temptations in the house at least!
Started this morning with a fitstar workout and really hope for a fully on plan day.
Restarting on 9th March - SW 205.0
Goal weight 199.0
Glad to see that your scale is moving again, Nancy!
Ophelia YAY on making your spring goal That is fantastic!!!! I wrote down everything that I ate yesterday but didn't start counting until today. Last night I weighed/measured everything that I packed for my breakfast, lunch and snacks. I don't know that I will hit 1200 today. My husband is convinced that I am not eating enough, and actually adding up the calories didn't help my argument that I am.
Great way to start your day takingcontrol!! I think its a good thing to give into temptation (in moderation) keeps me from binging later! I hope you get to onederland soon!!
Up today because of how late I ate last night. I am 100% sure of that. My calories were good...so that's the only thing it could be. Irritated because of it but yesterday there was no other choice but to eat late. I hope everyone is doing better at this then me.

I began eating intuitively yesterday, so this is nice to see, especially because it's such a hard thing to trust myself to make good choices. I am sure my weight will bounce up and down as I figure things out, but I am happy for now.
Had a perfectly on plan day yesterday and aiming for another today.... I want to onederland so bad! TOM should be gone soonish and I am hoping I can set myself up for a whoosh!
You are so close takingcontrol!! Great job yesterday and hopefully with your TOM leaving soon you will be there in no time!
I weighed 4 hours later than normal so I will probably go back up a bit tomorrow. Tonight I plan on eating dinner a couple hours earlier to see if that helps!
Irritated isn't the word for my weight these days....I just want it to go down and stay down but it wants to be so fickle!

Apparently, I typed out my update yesterday, but then got interrupted and sidetracked and never came back to actually post it! Whoops, lol. So, I'm posting both yesterday's and today's update together today! Already running out of time today again, so going to go ahead and post this without personals today....so, hi to everyone!
------------------------------------
YESTERDAY: "Weight is still slowly inching back down from my post-whoosh bump up and was at 246.0 today. Overall, my loss for the week is 4.2 lbs, so I am happy! I ended up being able to do the full 5 miles on my walk last night, so we'll see what I do tonight. These shoes seem to be working out, though! "

---------------------------- End of Week Two: 250.2 Total Loss for Week Three:4.2 lbs.
------------------------------------
TODAY: "Weigh-in was 245.6 today, so back down to what my whoosh was initially. Hoping to break through this and move again tomorrow. Took the kids out with me for a shorter walk last night, so I didn't get in my full 5 miles - only around 3 miles - but, I was pushing my 2 year old in a stroller, and that was killer on the hills...lol. I didn't realize how much more resistance that would give me, and I think I got in just as much of a workout yesterday, if not more, than usual. Unfortunately, my FitBit didn't monitor my steps correctly because I was pushing the stroller, but I was able to calculate our distance manually after we got home and realized it stopped measuring halfway through. May use the Boba carrier next time so my arms can have free movement, even when his little legs get tired and he needs to be carried."

Sorry I haven't been much in the mood recently to do personals. Just know that I'm still keeping up with you ladies.
_______________________________________
opheliaphoenix....I had trouble with my fitbit alta recognizing when I was on an elliptical and not using the swinging hand grips so I attached my fitbit band to my shoe laces to get the steps....it worked great. When done I put it back on my wrist
I am happy that I didn't go back up! I am hoping that tomorrow I see a bit of loss. I ate 1385 calories on Tuesday and 1135 yesterday. I don't think I drank as much water as I normally do yesterday, so today that will be my focus. I upped my calories on Tuesday and went down, not sure if it is a coincidence (probably) but its hard to eat when I am not hungry and its not like I am working out like the majority of you!
That is fantastic!!!! I wrote down everything that I ate yesterday but didn't start counting until today. Last night I weighed/measured everything that I packed for my breakfast, lunch and snacks. I don't know that I will hit 1200 today. My husband is convinced that I am not eating enough, and actually adding up the calories didn't help my argument that I am.
