Hello everyone, how was your day? I hope it was good.
Back to share my weight loss journey for the day.
I did go up on the scale once again; not sure how much entirely. Going to change things up on February 1st - with diet plan and weigh ins (maybe).
Blood sugars:
Fasting - 200
Meal 1 - 112
Meal 2 --
Meal 3 - 196
Let's see, what did I eat?
Meal 1 - Low carb pizza wrap (low carb tortilla, pizza sauce, pepperoni, and cheese) (on my new plan this would be 10 pts or so)
Snack - Low carb PB cup fat bomb
Meal 2 - 2 mozzarella sticks, some popcorn chicken and a few fries
Meal 3 - Compleat meal (mashed potatoes and gravy with chicken)
Snack - 2 Oreo cookies. There is a new flavor I really wanted to try. "Brookie" The filling has 3 layers - brownie, original, and cookie dough.
In the future, maybe I will have 1 after a big workout....but don't need to have it at night.
So, macros for the day?
Calories - 1,234
Protein - 60
Fat - 60
Carbs - 124
Fiber - 17
I did not get a workout in today...just needed a few days off. Probably won't get one tomorrow either since I have a doctor's appointment. Ugh...not looking forward to that.
Anyways, how did I do? I bet the scale will go up again. Maybe the new plan will work if I work out consistently, I hope. Also, how did you all do?

@DocAndersen Well I know Keto/Low carb works. I have proved it in the past.

@MommyOfEli2013 as Thomas Edison said "I didn't fail, I just found ways that didn't work."

@MommyOfEli2013 It always comes down at least a pound from my wake-up weight. Sometimes more.

@just4him Well that is interesting because weight usually goes up throughout the day.

I want it more than anything, but feel hopeless since I keep losing and gaining the same 4-5 pounds. That's amazing you lost 17 on Keto!

Why not try to set smaller goals? I know you've talked about a new food plan, but maybe start by working out three to four times a week giving yourself breaks in-between? It might help to start a habit.

@MommyOfEli2013 Obviously, othrwise you wouldn't need to keep trying new things. You'd find something that works and stick to it. What I mean by smaller goals, is set something you know you can accomplish. And, see how long you can stick to it. Then add to it over time.

@kaylachan Trouble is, I don't know what I can accomplish. If I do low carb my menu is so limited because I am a picky eater. So it does get boring and there is not a lot of "convenience" meals with this diet...so when I am tired/not in the mood to cook it's easier to go to something off plan.

I've kept really quiet about how I have been doing
The scale.has said the same for the last 3 weeks
I am happy with that.

I wouldn't say that I am doing ok lol
But that is good to hear....the scale being the same is better than it going up

@MommyOfEli2013 Don't get discouraged. You can still lose weight and stay within your carb limits if you try.

I think running is a good way to achieve this goal. Eat less and run. Your body will utilize fat energy. This will be helpful.
