It says I didn’t reach my goal. I accidentally put in a 171lb as my log at first but my scale said 157 but resubmitted my my target goal was 157.7 but my weigh new weigh in was at 157.1 which clearly met my goal

Sticking to my meal plan yesterday was ROUGH, man. Especially when my husband had me make him red beans and rice with bacon, of all things. (I don’t even normally care for bacon, but I wanted to lick the pan!) I wonder if my fat intake is too low, or if it’s just the general caloric restriction? Maybe both? We’ll see on the next meal plan ig; it’s a little higher in fat.

I usually do cycles of 4 days on the plan with prepped food (because that’s about how long the food stays fresh in the fridge) followed by 1 “free” day, where I can eat whatever I want as long as I pay attention to my hunger and fullness cues and don’t stuff myself. It works out to follow the 80/20 rule.

Days 3 and 4 are always the toughest… but I just gotta “say no” for one more day! Lord help me stay strong; I know it’s worth it!

Your commitment is inspiring, but I want to gently point out that this approach isn’t exactly aligned with 2B Mindset principles. 2B isn’t about caloric restriction or cycles of “on-plan” and “free” days—it’s more about creating sustainable habits and enjoying your meals without feeling deprived. It emphasizes eating to satisfaction, not limitation, and focusing on mindset rather than rigid rules.

If you’re feeling tempted or deprived, it could be a sign that your meals need to be more satisfying, which often means incorporating more volume, protein, or even some healthy fats. That way, you don’t feel the need to “power through” tough days. 2B is non-restrictive, so it’s worth tweaking your meal plan to work with your body, not against it. You’ve got this!

@Breana G While 2B sounds like it will work great without having to keep track of calories for those with more weight to lose, I could definitely manage to overeat even following 2B. (I can really put away some food!) I am already fairly lean, and I don’t think my body is going to be willing to let go of more fat without intentional caloric restriction. That may feel a little uncomfortable at times for me— but that’s okay! I will feel less hungry as I get used to eating less food again; then I can go back to eating intuitively and not having to worry about managing my weight.

For those who weigh in daily every day … what do you do when you do everything “right” and scale stays exactly the same ?? The old me would throw in the towel and say “F it,” but I don’t want to do that anymore ! That mentality is why I have been yo-yoing back and forth the same 5 lbs for 2 years.

  • If you do it daily you become desensitized to the car crash of emotion that comes when it goes up. Seriously. Plus there are times that it goes down that you don’t even know bc you aren’t looking! Like others mentioned, it’s data. It also helped me learn that it might go up today but then down the next two days. I’ve had six decrease days out of 8 so far this month. One day that I went up, it was 1.8 lbs, which used to deflate me. But surrounded by all the loss, I know it’s all good. For reference, green is loss, pink is gain, yellow is no change (I rarely get those).

It’s so great that you’re aware of that old mindset and are ready to break free from it! Remember, the scale is just one tool, not the full story. When it doesn’t move, focus on the bigger picture, how you feel, your energy levels, how your clothes fit, and non-scale victories like sticking to your habits.

With 2B Mindset, it’s helpful to reflect and ask yourself: Am I drinking enough water? Did I focus on veggies first? Am I tracking honestly? Sometimes small tweaks make a big difference, even when it feels like you’re doing everything right.

Consistency beats perfection every time, and the key is to stay patient. The scale will eventually catch up, but your healthy habits are what truly create lasting change. Keep going you’ve got this!

  • Made a ginormous pot of Mexican "albondigas" soup, which is just meatball soup with tons of chunky veggies! Going to be freezing some in my Souper Cubes so that my freezer also has healthy options that can pulled out and heated up in a pinch!
