I noticed there wasn't hadn't been a daily post in a while, and hardly enough traffic to justify one yet. Thought I would give posting a weekly thread a try and see how it does.

Hi! I'm Rebecca, 33F, 5'5, SW 153lbs, CW 133lbs, working on the last 10ish lbs of baby weight.

I'm a strong believer in CICO, but am having trouble sticking to my goals right now (I think I'm just getting too much into a rut), so I'm going to try 18:6 IF this week and see how I feel. Anyone else find they need to shake things up every once in a while?

I can definitely get streaky. If I've had desserts for three nights in a row, it's very easy to have it that 4th time. So to shake things up, I try not to repeat things two nights in a row. Sometimes, when I need to drop a pound or two, I try to do it by shaving calories instead of dropping down to a definite deficit. However, it's usually the case that dropping down to a definite deficit is the right way to go.
