Today I got on the scale and I lost another 2 lbs! I am down to 194. This week has been a completely out of the box experience when it comes to weight loss. I am still riding the wave even though I know it has to peak soon and get back to a normal pattern. I am going to document what has been different about this period so that I will be able to reference it as a reminder in the future. I think I can attribute some of this streak to my trip to Disney. It seems that it jumpstarted an unprecedented drop due to the incredible amount of walking I undertook every day including the day we arrived. We walked for many hours every day. I am sure it played a role. The other thing I did was to go immediately back to my IF eating. It was not hard to do that because I was not that far off base at Disney. Before I got to Disney, I ordered groceries to be delivered at our resort, with low carb items so that I could be sure to have choices. While there, I started every morning with a very large coffee serving (about 2 1/2 cups with my cream). I ate 4% cottage cheese for breakfast. I consumed a huge amount of water. I snacked on cheese. I had coleslaw and my coconut salad oil - almost every day! I had some huge protein hits while I was there (Polynesian bbq dinner at Ohana, meal at Be Our Guest and Tony's Italian). I guess it was a good thing that I did not freefall into carb-dom on vacation - I dabbled! All my meals since I got back are very low carb. My macros have been on point with my fat percentage hovering in the high 50s/60s mostly. My carb is about 10% or less. The rest is protein. My calorie intake is less than 1400 and I had a one day blip where it was much less than that. The biggest thing I am experiencing since getting back is that after I have my BP coffee, I have no need to eat until approximately 2 pm or sometimes later - I am listening to my body rather than eating at certain times out of habit (physical hunger trumps mental/emotional hunger). If I eat much later than 2 pm I often don't eat a lot for that day - it's just worked out that way since I am not planning my eating times in my window - just listening to my body. My plan basically is to stick to eating within my 8 hour window and ensure that I have enough LC food at the ready. The other thing I have done consistently this week is to start my day with a glass of water even before I have coffee. I keep the water consumption going until approximately 5 pm and try to have about 6 glasses. It has kept me focused to keep documenting my food too. Since coming back my meals are very simple - I've had mostly eggs, cheese, veggies and one day, I had fish! I am having a BM every day consistently - that was not always the case before my vacation but when I was on vacation it became consistent (don't know why). I think that helps a lot - I have always had problems in that area (enough said). Last night I had a loooong walk, up and down hills in my sister's neighbourhood. I have to keep my activity level high I think - that's not always easy. I will add Jillian's 30 day shred back into my post-vacation routine and get back to my yoga. 1 hour of walking 3 times a week would be a good start in terms of walking - I really would like to make it a daily activity. I am sleeping very well and feeling great. Clothes are getting very loose - it's great to see that but I am resisting the urge to buy anything right now! Well, I am off to work now. Have a great day friends and be golden!

I have been having my 'breakfast' lately of coffee with cream. I know what you mean about not being hungry until after 12. Yesterday we went to Phx and I didn't get home to eat until 2:30 then I futzed around with laundry. I was hungry, but made myself wait. Feels good to be in charge. I just wish I could do it every day. Hugs to you Jenn. thanks for being my buddy.

Thanks friends! Db: The funny thing about all of this is that anyone who had a measure of success on this WOE know what to do to keep losing, it's the moment by moment that we sometimes struggle with. When we are in control and focused, it's great and the results happen but when we are not, it's frustrating and we can quickly go into eating purgatory! The only way I keep making it back from the edge is through mindfulness - it is tough!

Paying attention to your body is a big thing, totally different than just doing things out of habit. I know on weekends or non work days I go more by what my body is telling me. Work days I have learned for me I need to stick to a schedule or I simply don't feel good.
