I upped my LDW when I stayed consistant at that weight for at least a week or two. Also when I began to stress the scale every day and needed a break. I only do correction days when I go two pounds above my "new" LDW. Hope that helps.
I think you can see on my ticker the ups and downs I am constantly navigating. I hover 1.4 to 2.5 above LDW, running a correction day every 3rd-4th day.
I'm still learning about what I can eat, not eat, etc, but now I'm wondering...maybe I should just consider a higher LDW??? How long do I keep trying to reign this in, and when do I accept a new LDW?
I should add, that I'm not LOOKING to increase it, but just need some sort of appropriate expectation to set for myself.
Age: 46; Height: 5' 9";
√ 43 Day R1 Ended 2/21/2011; Ending weight 165.4; -25.4lbs
√ 24 Day R2 Ended 4/14/2011; Ending weight 153.1; -14.9lbs
Gained 16.9lbs in 3 months after 4 months of staying on track! Boo!
√ 41 Day R3 Ended 1/9/2012; Ending weight 148.0; -27.3lbs

The journey to weight loss is measured in baby steps.
