May 6 - 251.2
May 7 - 251.2
May 8 - 251.0 Yay! Just another pound and I will be out of the 250s
May 9 - 250.8 agonizingly slow but at least it's going in the right direction!
May 10 - 250.0 .. let's break into the the next decade!!
May 11 - 248.8 .. broken into the 240s in style!
May 12 - out of town, but keeping to the program
May 13 - out of town, but keeping to the program
May 16 - 247.4 - back in town and managed to lose 1.4 pounds while away. Woohoo!
May 17 - 246.4 - yay, it's moving again. Beginning of May I was on antibiotics.. I read somewhere that they feed antibiotics to cows to make them gain weight for slaughter and wonder if the antibiotics were contributing to the lack of a loss in early May. Either way, I'm glad of some scale movement.
May 18 - 246.8
May 19 - 246.2 bit by bit
May 20 - 244.8 *big grin*
May 21 - 244.6 and it stuck!
May 22 - 244.4 eking it out bit by bit
May 23 - 246.4 *silent scream*
May 24 - I weighed but not at my normal time so am not owning it today. Tomorrow for sure.
May 25 - 245.0 back down a bit ... I wonder if the warmer weather is leading to a bit of water retention. My ankles are a bit puffy.
May 26 - 244.6
May 27 - 242.8
May 28 - 242.8 - it stuck!! Just 1.6 pounds to reach my goal of 10 pounds a month
May 29 - 242.8 and it stuck again .. but I do need a leeetle bit more scale movement to see that 10 pounds for the month!
May 30 - 244 ...

Ooh sorry I missed your post to me...

I'm not trying to lose more weight -- initially, I wanted "wiggle" room once I started maintenance so that I had a 3-4 lbs leeway to adjust carbs/kcals.

It's been 17 days since I've lost any weight -- so maybe, hopefully I have found my maintenance threshold for carbs and kcals -- which will make my LC WOE life easier.

Is this what you meant by adjusted??

5/1 - 188.6
