BAM pre Thanksgiving weight! Just goes to show that having a couple higher calorie days doesn’t destroy your progress.

I had a decent Thanksgiving Neal. Two actually. Normal amount for a larger meal for me without it being huge but higher calorie foods. Dip and chips for a meal. Pizza twice! Mexican with dip and chips last night. A piece of pie and nibbles on the kids’ pie that they couldn’t finish.

I didn’t get my protein bar, cider or snickers that I wanted and planned for. I still have a cinnamon roll on my counter that I need to eat later.

I write all info in a handwritten spreadsheet. I was losing 0.6# avg/wk so I penciled in my ending week weight up until Dec 31st. This was the minimum I was supposed to be at; my goal I guess, even though I think it’s too low. This ending weight should’ve been Dec 17! So even with all that food, all that ‘DIRTY’ food, I’m 4 weeks ahead of schedule! At this rate I’ll be about 122 by the end of the year. 120 by Christmas (should be 123ish) was my ultimate goal which I decided was unattainable without a lot of exercise which I just don’t have time for right now.

Anyone reading this that has a bit of willpower: you CAN be flexible and attain your goals! I’m a perfect example of how if you add more calories in you can lose more weight. Of course I have high and low days each week and high and low weeks each month. This works! Barring any health issues of course-don’t do this if your dr advised against it!

Thank you for all your support my FS friends! Just thinking about your help and encouragement makes me tear up. I’m so very grateful for everything you’ve done for me and for others. If you’ve helped me or encouraged me in ANY way then this means you 😉.

Aww thank you! If I’m not organized then I don’t keep up with things. I need to log so that I don’t eat so much junk. I weigh and measure to help with portion control. My spreadsheets let me log at changes quickly and easily while also giving me motivation to keep going and knowledge about where I need to change. It’s super easy too and would be easier on the computer! If interested then get a pc spreadsheet (or graph paper made into rows and columns), label it with the beginning and ending dates of the week down the left side and on top label columns with calories in weekly and daily, calories out weekly and daily, macros, weekly sand daily of each: carbs fats and protein, loss or gain for that week plus beginning and ending weight for that week. My other has columns labeled beginning and ending weights, loss/gain, % lost that week, kcal in, kcal out, difference in kcal and macros. ALong the side I have each month with beginning and ending weights plus loss/gain, kcal in and total difference. Under that I started one by month for in minus out, what I should’ve lost based on the numbers and what I did lose. I find that I’m either really close or lose up to double what I should have.
