Hello everyone! Welcome to another week.

This past week has been an interesting one for me. I did extremely well until Friday night. Vowed to get back on-plan on Saturday, but didn't eat breakfast (was too busy getting laundry washed and hung) before we went to the Easter Egg Hunt at the park near our house. Well... I thought my DD would be hunting eggs. Not so - the little ones (under 3) hunt candy... so lets just say I didn't get back on track like planned. Yesterday wasn't the best either.

Here are my stats - Actual weight is the same, but my average is down by 2.9 pounds. That is from Sunday to Sunday. This morning I was up 0.5 pound on actual and my average went up 0.1 - not bad considering the day I had yesterday.

But, the good news is that my 7-day avg (what I report in my sig line) is actually below my sig right now. Woohoo! ...and I will be back on plan as of right now!

Hope you all had a good week... all the way through.

Hi Debby,

I had a good week too. I've had some issues with my weight jumping like 7-8 lbs over the course of 2 days so I worked all week to get it off, good news is that I almost did. I'm only 1 1/2 lbs away from my weight of 4/10. Seems like forever to get to a weight and stay there. I'm really getting my water in, I'm watching fat and salt intake. But still can't give up something sweet with my RM, I need it to make it through since I can't have anything even LC sweet during the day.

Hope your week goes well, I'll keep in touch, gotta run!

Good work ladies! Debby, even if your actual is not down, your average tells the story. Karen, I struggle with fluctuations too. I'm up and down all week. Just as long as the overall trend is down, I'm relatively satisfied. I have everything graphed in Excel, and it's encouraging (usually!) to see the overall progress, since it's easy to lose sight of it on a day-to-day basis.

This week, I am down one actual, .3 average. I've now been at 201 often enough that I've changed my sig line. Went out to lunch at a Mexican place last week and paid the price for not just ordering a salad. That kept my weekly average less than I would have liked, but anything in a downward direction is welcome!
