I have continued to exercise and I have lowered my calorie count to around
1000 a day. I don't like the fact that I have lost 4 pounds in a week, it
shouldn't have been more than two. I want to do this the healthy way. I
guess I will have to up my calories to 1200 a day. Then again, I was
stuck at 205 for about 3 weeks, so maybe it just my body coming off the
plateau. It could be the exercising that has jumped-started my weight
loss. So here is the question, do I up my calorie intake or just wait to
see what happens next week?

Let's wait and see what happens next week, and I'll go with you, as
reading this post was like looking in my diary.
I was stuck at 181 for three weeks and JUST joined the gym 13 days ago;
this week, on vacation, I lowered my calories to
a steady 1,000 (I've been doing the "graduated calorie" thing for several
months now) and went to the gym every morning this week. I got on their
scale this morning and was shocked to see it SIX POUNDS under 10 days ago,
when I first met with my original trainer. When I came home, I got weighed
naked on my scale that I usually only step on Sunday morning, and lo and
behold, it was three pounds under my March 4 weigh-in. I'm not going to
"go by" this number, I'll wait 'till Sunday. Meantime, I'm doing a two-day
protein/juice detox, which will still be around 900-1,000 calories, if I
did the math right (and that's a big "if")

Ps. No food dreams last night.

:-D

Just 7 wonderful hours of uninterrupted sleep.

Sweet. I've had sleep issues since the onset of menopause, and now
that I am on the Other Side, I still rarely sleep more than three hours
straight. At least now, when I wake up, it is usually from a dog jumping on
the bed, and not because I am sweating bullets and sliding out of the
sheets...
