Congrats to you on the total  weight loss since 2009!  The big picture looks great even if u have had some minor set backs.  StaceyOn Sun, Jan 30, 2011 at 6:58 PM, i Mouse <martini.mouse@...> wrote:

 

Today will have to be my month-end wrap up. I started the month just ending hometime, my weight shot up from 232 to 243.6 in December, my beginning weight in January was 242.  I did have a few binges in December, plus being home nearly the whole month (pulled tooth) I just had a difficult time all around.  My husband wasn't able to make it home for Christmas, I was stressed with pain and his delay had me eating more and drinking more than I needed.  This weight gain was due to my own folly.  What I did not expect was to see how difficult it was to lose the weight here in January AND get my BG's down on top of it.  I have to say that this month has been the most difficult in terms of weight loss than any previous month.  I believe that I am at a new level of weight loss, that my body has been fighting a loss for a long time.

My weight this morning:  Click to enlarge any report or photo.

  Although there is a technical 7 pound loss for the month, I still did not manage to lose the full gain.  I am very unhappy about that.  Especially now that I will be on home-time starting this evening, and I just don't think I can tolerate another gain.

Weight graph from the start:

Here are my month's averages:

Here is my daily calories, but there is an error in the report as far as the calorie goal.  I was on a 1200 goal, but recently changed it to 1100.  So the excess calories show in red, while definitely over my target many days, it really only applies to the last 6 days:

So this is my January.  I incorporated some mindful eating techniques.  That went well, and I re-established my BG's back to a normal range through ketosis.

In those terms, I did well.  But the calories have got to stay down.  I talked to my daughter yesterday, the plan is for me to arrive in April and that means I will be off the truck for nearly a month ALONE and having to deal with that whole issue, which so far I have not done well with.  Something has got to give though, I will never get this extra 75 pounds off the more I delay it with home-time treats.  My plan is to stay 1100 calories and under for the next 4 days.  When I get back on the truck, I will try to keep it under 1000 a while longer to get the weight to move.  The hardest part of home time is to not have any brandy.  So hard.....I am telling you....so hard!
