Yet another gain. I gained 1.4 pounds this week. The rotten part is that I have gained weight every week this month. I have gained 5.8 pounds over September. The worst part is that if I maintain this weight, I will have wiped out all the work I did in 2021! I would like to make substantial inroads in the next three months so I can salvage some of this year as far as not gaining too many pounds.

This week what I did right...I was not eating all over the map of major highs or lows. I had one very high calorie day and one very low-calorie day and then two somewhat high days and three days in the zone. Generally, I would have expected a modest loss with that pattern. But it didn't happen that way.

The plan- more days in the zone and no very high days. Sweets continue to be a difficulty for me. I note that I had 3 squares on one day and two gourmet cookies on another. I need to make that one each time. It is the multiple servings that are causing the biggest problem. I am also exploring crackers again. That is also a slippery slope. Will eye that up this week as well.

This past week was a pleasant one. Last Saturday I had the family over for supper. I really enjoyed that. I made a Beef curry with brown rice and had a cucumber salad. For dessert it was homemade apple sauce (with scant sugar!) and ice cream. Did prep for and ran a meeting for one volunteer organization, went to a Board-staff lunch (I was awesome I managed to leave half my Quesadilla on my plate!), went to a local yoga class, and got caught up with various bookkeeping for a number of companies.

Don't know if it's the change in the weather or what, I've been eating too much also. Let's do better.

It's a deal!! I have too many dense calorie comfort foods associated with this time of year! Let's definitely do better.

It seems all the good is being cancelled out with the bad, that's why you're not seeing any progress. Definitely more good days of low calorie intake will get you there back on track👍

Thanks cmj29 you are so right. That is the beauty of keeping the statistics. They make it so much easier to see clearly where to make improvements.
