weird loss/ hunger pattern
Being close to goal, I seem to bounce around much more than before. Last week, I was down to 127 for several days. Then after sitting in the truck for the weekend, I was back up to 129. Yesterday, 129 and was hungry all day. I was tieing it to having yogurt (slider) and protein drink in the afternoon instead of a more solid "meal". Ended up adding another "meal" of pepperoni to make it to supper. So my calories were around 1000 and my protein ended up around 130 cause I kept adding stuff because I was hungry. Then this morning I got on the scale and was 126, a new low. 3# less in one day.
So now it has happened more than once. Seems I get really hungry on a day when I am getting ready to lose. Does that happen to anyone else? I guess what I did was fine, just add more protein. Seems to be working for me.

You are singing MY song....I'm always up and down (within 3-4 pounds). I usually bounce around for about 3 weeks and then on the 4th week I'll see a new "low" number! For the past two months I've only lost 2 pounds each month....I've REALLY slowed down but then again, I'm pretty much finished.
Any extra pounds lost at this point will be "bounce back" protection!
Weird and FRUSTRATING!!

I have added exercise back in so I'm hoping that will help stabilize it some once my body gets used to the exercise.
