Diario de Bandrai, 17 mar. 24

I had hoped to be down to the 150s by March. But its a bit stop start, a little bit of progress and downward momentum is then followed by a little bit of stagnant or flex up. It is annoying. There hasn't really been any falls into territory that's bad, I have kept calories low and swapped out on occasion for a cheat but nothing dramatic. Yet the pace has been incredibly slow. I have never had trouble dropping 10lbs in a couple of weeks before at this weight, when its at the lower end it has been hard like this. I may take a couple of break days, back to more normal calorie levels and see can I kick start a more energetic enthusiasm for the next few pounds. Ideally 150s for March, then 140s for April and 130s for May.. would leave me in good stead for the Summer. Having achieved 45 dry days in January - February. I did not really see any big impact from staying off the wine. I probably made better snack options at times, but usually there wasn't any real change. Having said that I may go from now until end of April, on a dry stretch. As the days brighten, I find it much nicer to be out biking hiking or playing tennis than curled up with a book and bodied wine. I had made a list of things to try. But the darkness quelled my enthusiasm. I may have to revisit those adventures.
