Happy Tuesday all! A marginal bump up according to the troll scale this AM. Expected since I had a much higher than usual salt intake yesterday (and didn't get enough water in me). Back to a more normal workday meal today of tuna seasoned with sriracha and garlic mixed with mayo and mct oil. Also tossed in chopped baby spinach, cucumber, mozzarella. All together some where in the 850-950 call range.
Since starting here, I have not recorded the minor bumps up a long the way and will continue with that unless there is an upward trend over a few days. I've had just as many bumps up and down as any one here (its not been as smooth as my chart seems to say) but my logic in that is recording the bumps is just a distraction and takes away from the view of overall progress. I do weight every day and compare results against what was consumed in an effort to further understand intake and effect. Since I plan and prepare my meals at least 90% of the time this allow me to make minor tweaks not only to what and how much I make but how I prepare it as well. I put way to much thought into it all I'm sure but for me it keeps the mind engaged wholly in the process. I find in myself if I go fully on autopilot, more and more bad decisions begin to creep in.
It just struck me as I find myself closing in on crossing that 300 mark, I need to find a new doc to go to so I can get that 500k mile check up I have been avoiding. I'm actually looking forward to it simply for the extra data it will provide to help shape further efforts.
Running late today so I bid you all a found farewell for now. Keep making good choices, stay strong and resist temptations, keep doing the things that move you closer to where you want to be. And more importantly, regardless of the challenges you may contend with, find the beauty in the world around you and enjoy the day to the greatest extent possible.

Have an awesome day J! I try to do the same thing regarding the weight log in. I keep a paper journal with all the ups and downs, water intake and most importantly how I feel daily. Hopefully I can figure out what works best for me.

Hope you have a fantastic day too J!! I agree with you about the up and down bumps. They can be a distraction. I only record my weight once a week, try to do it on the same day (usually Monday). But I have started writing down my daily weight so I can average out what I'm losing each week in the long term. It also helps me adjust food, salt, etc. Our weight fluctuates based on water and poo retention, so I don't care to note that on here. You're doing great and will meet and surpass that 300 mark soon!!

No doubt you will succeed with your goals. Like your thoughts on the processes. I should do the everyday weigh in and do an average for the week because I do drink a lot of non calorie liquids. You have very interesting posts. Have a great day!!

I really admire your thinking. I think I’m going to also stop recording my minor bumps in the road. Like you say, it’s just a distraction from the overall progress. And I think that we may be taste bud soulmates LOL! I love siracha so much.

The bumps are discouraging but for me, I think I need it. I need to see where I’m going wrong or maybe I just find comfort in self deprecation... Good day to ya!
