Ugh. Managed to hit my weight-in goal the past two mornings in a row. And then last night didn’t get home from work until about 9 PM so had a late dinner with carbs. Up this morning so missed my weigh in by 1.2 pounds (I weigh out at the gym and Wed was a rest day) Oh well, such is weight loss.  On to the next month!

Onward! Way to acknowledge you can't control it all. You've got the next one!!

I finally weighed in 0.2 away from my round 4 goal this am!!!
So I had gone on vacation last month and went a bit off the rails after. I buckled down in the last two weeks and somehow managed to hit the goal. But after restricting myself for two weeks, I went way back the other way at the beginning of this month. I felt pretty defeated, and at that point decided that I needed to be more calculated (up until that point I wasn’t following any specific calorie counting, I was just trying to make better food choices). I started a macro counting program that I’ve done in the past. I gave up the idea of meeting this months weight goal since they usually start you out in a week or 2 of maintenance/light weight loss then adjust macros from there gradually- I had to let myself be OK with the fact that I was going to miss this weight loss goal with the plan of hitting the last one. Well, the scale finally budged out of my plateau today!!! Being that the weigh-in is in three days, I don’t know if I will make it, but I am pretty happy about that small move!

This is fantastic Lauren! I follow something similar by weighing and tracking my food and staying in calorie deficit each day and honestly… it works really well. I average over 10 lbs a month. It takes discipline but, for a foodie like me I need to be able to see what macros I’m consuming to help me make better food choices- and also reduce the portion size. You’re on the right path!! You got this. Congratulations :tada:

That’s a really sensible approach- it’s easy to lose sight of the real goal and to risk starting patterns that make us less balanced. Wishing you success with the new plan!

OK, just a little vent – I was doing really well but went on vacation at the beginning of this month. I ate the food and drank the wine just like you should do on vacation. And honestly, I was only up about 2 pounds on the scale so I wasn’t super worried about it. But since getting back I’m falling into old habits. People are definitely telling me it looks like I’ve been losing weight, but I’m worried about the March goal

I had that problem after going on vacation … overall my meals were pretty healthy but I was eating more treats than usual. It was hard to go back to eating fewer treats when I got back. But it’s gotten a little better this week. Stick with it and you will get back on track! Moderate wine consumption was always tough for me so I have been alcohol free for 4 years now. Sugar is my challenge hah

I had a similar problem. My spring break was last week. I went out to eat every day with someone different. Sometimes it was eating and drinking. Overall, not a big deal, because it was one week (and only the week days at that.) But I did have trouble getting the good habits back on and the bad habits off. However, I think I've balanced out by now. I'm not feeling that great about the March goal, though...might be closer than it should have been! March will have been a no progress month for me.
