I officially declare this plateau broken! With the departure of a certain aunt, the water weight seems to be flowing off as well, and just in time, too.

losing 11.2 lb a week

Had monthly hormonal water weight retention all week, and was very tempted to give in and use it as an excuse to give up all my other good habits, order pizza and brownies, and binge. Managed to hold off by binging on YouTube clips instead until Dominos stopped their delivery hours, then went to bed, and now I'm seeing the trend downward again.
Yay.
Note the muted enthusiasm.

losing 5.6 lb a week
23 February 2016
I have been so good all week, and I've still gained. I'm pretty sure it's hormonal water weight, but that doesn't make me feel better about it. I just feel like a failure, and like all my hard work doesn't matter.
I'm so tempted to go drown my sorrows in chocolate right now.

gaining 2.8 lb a week
20 February 2016
Just wrote this in a comment to someone else's journal entry, and thought it might be useful to keep it here. I don't follow a meal plan every day, I prefer to be spontaneous and eat what I feel like in the moment, but that can easily lead to overeating, so what I do instead is follow a calorie budget.
First what I do is break down the things I like to eat that are low carb, low cal and nutritionally good for me into categories, based on how many cals they are, and their suitability, then make a list of each. Snacks are 50-100 cals, mini-meals are 150-200 cals, and main meals are 300-400 cals. I keep at least a few options of each in the house at all times.
Then I'll look at my schedule for the day, and break it down like so (just an example):
Breakfast 11am: One mini-meal.
Lunch 2pm: one snack.
Afternoon 5pm: one snack.
Dinner 7-8pm: main meal.
Late 11pm: one mini-meal or snack to bring me to my total for the day (If I splurged earlier, I save here, if I saved earlier, I splurge here).
This leaves me free to still wander to the fridge and see what looks good to me around 2pm, without just grabbing the jar of nacho cheese and a spoon. I have a list of pre-approved options, but I still have options. I'm not stuck staring at the can of tuna I thought would be a good idea three days ago, but right now just turns my stomach.
Not sure if it would be useful to anyone else to work this way, and it's probably so effective because I live alone, but I figured I'd at least mention my bizarre little alternative to strict meal planning or having to do all the calorie calculations on the spot every meal when your tummy is growling.
Remember: H.A.L.T.! Do not make decisions when Hungry, Angry, Lonely or Tired! They tend to be bad decisions!
