Last week was pretty challenging. We had to let our 16-year-old cat go, and in the ensuing commiseration I had a few pastries (nothing crazy, but some) and bloated up by five pounds overnight. A very similar scenario five years ago is how I fell off the wagon and reversed a 40-lb weight loss that I’d spent the whole summer achieving. This time though I kept it contained and got back to business. The bloat came off and now it’s like it never happened.
What do you feel you could have done better this week?
Working from home as most of us are, I sometimes find it hard to get my steps in. Dedicated exercise is important of course, but five minutes an hour of walking also adds up.

What are your goals for the upcoming week?
Keep on keeping on. If I lose more than 1 lb this week, I’ll bump my intake up another 100 kcal (to 2,200). I’m close to my 3-month goal already and I’m five pounds away from the Healthy Weight bracket, so there’s no need to push hard. Longer-term, I’d like to settle in somewhere around 2,300-2,500 for the winter and gradually lose weight or recomp, while also letting go of the macros and food tracking a bit more, ever so slightly inching toward true maintenance.
