217.6 today. I feel like maybe I've got a real productive movement due soon, though, so further updates as events warrant.

I hit 40+ daily. A few things help:Originally Posted by 0ddl0t
1. I have a large serving (100-120g ~10g fiber) of raspberries or blackberries daily along with fat-free greek yogurt.
2. I eat bread (Dave's Killer, 5g slice x2) on my daily turkey sandwich.
3. Yerba Prima whole psyllium husk (5g), daily as a supplement. Mix it in cold water and down it.
So just with this, I have about a 20g intake. My other normal food choices take care of the rest.
That said, getting a 40g fiber goal when you are in the low end of carb macros is difficult. I eat 200g of carbs a day, and up to 300g on very active days (4-5 hour bike rides).
So on those low carb days, then I have to be conscious about veggie and fruit types. Pears, raspberries, blackberries, maybe some beans.
214.8 this morning. I've hit my goal of between 210-215 for Bataan with a week to spare.

183 -- inexplicablely up 1 from last week, though still down 17 for the year.
1/1/2020: 222 lbs.
1/29/2020: 211 lbs.
2/15/2020: 208 lbs.
Today, 3/8/2020 205 lbs.
Don't let it bother you unless it becomes a trend. Bouncing around a few pounds is pretty normal so you could have still lost fat and just have a bigger colon load or more water weight on the day you weighed in. I'm sure you already know that, but it's sometimes easy to get discouraged if you don't remind yourself. I'm down almost two pounds today vs yesterday and there's no way that's all calorie deficit, it's just a bigger than usual poo and I know it'll bounce back. Just watch the trend.

212.8 this morning. I'm averaging -0.6 lb/day sticking to Tom_Jones' idea, although I've used cabbage many days instead of broccoli. I weigh about what I did in the Army, although with a 3" larger waist so still not nearly the same body composition. I'm now merely "overweight" instead of "obese" per the BMI charts, so that's something I suppose.

That must have been it - I was down 1.4 this morning. It is just frustrating to be flat or up after a week of diet & exercise running a calorie deficit that *should* be dropping about 2/week. Maybe my metabolism is getting more efficient? I don't think I'm building muscle...
Even the best home scales are seldom more accurate than +/-1% so some of the swing is likely just error of the machine. Don't move the scale, weigh yourself at the same time every day wearing the same thing and just track the trend. I routinely bounce 2 lbs up or down day to day.
