9/10 156 DH woke me by saying "hey, it's 8:25!" I wanted to be at WW by 9! Made coffee, dressed and dashed! 157 clothed @ Weight Watchers. Whoo hoo! 11.5# since my first post vacay check-in. I am super happy.

Started R6 @ 177.1
First Goal: 170 ✔️
Next Goal: 159 ... At a slow rate
End of R15 - 158.8
Goals Try and maintain while SO is here and start running outside again (it should be getting cooler)
9/10 - 162.6
9/11 - 163.3 Well SO has arrived we spent the whole weekend siting and have dinners and luncheons etc. Which I knew was coming. I didn't eat 15,750 extra calories in 2 days so I'm ok with these numbers. Today is another get together and then he's gone again on Wednesday and hopefully I can get back on full track. Only thing I'm kind of disappointed about is I didn't hit my step goals (too much time in the car) What I have learned is enjoy these days celebrate within reason and then get back to it. As long as I don't throw in the towel and give up I'll be fine.
9/12 - 163.6 Way less moving and lunch out also snacked on a few Jelly Bellies (excessively)
9/13 - 165.1 ...... I've got this, just watch me!!
9/14 - 165.8 ..... Maybe don't watch today. Busy stressful day. Packed my lunch and have preplanned dinner. Have time for my lunchtime walk today and will do some kind of activity after work.
9/15 - 163.8 .... 14,000+ steps, hit calorie goal and packed lunch for work today. It's pizza day at lunch today, I will either have a small veggie slice or skip altogether. Usually I have (1) small slice but I have been eating way above calorie goals so skipping may be the best option. It's funny how "free food" seems to pull you in. Cost you nothing dollar wise but you could pay for it in your hips!! Lets see how I do. The weekend is coming my goals are to either hit 40,000 steps in a day or challange myself to walk the hills in a very steep area of town or find something else challenging (like get on my 5K). Everyone is away for the next 2 weeks so I can't hike
9/16 - 162.6 10,094 steps. I did have a small piece of pizza after I ate my salad and fruit. I didn't crave anymore after, that was nice. Today's goals are to move and hit my calorie goals!! Have a great weekend!!
9/17 - 161.2 Steps 19,312 did the hills and spent some time cleaning and organizing. 40,000, not sure I'll get there today.

9/12 - 133 so I am a bit off since Hurricane Irma. Living in So. Fl most of the year, I have been a little preoccupied - cooped up in the house with nothing to do, but cook, eat and watch a hurricane. I finally got to the gym today, but did not log. Hopefully tomorrow I will be back on track and back on goal. We are all fine and if the worst thing that happened to me was gaining a little weight, a few lost screens and trees, I'll take it!

@HeidiCooksSupper thank you for your reply. This is working for me and I didn't want to lose you all. Yes, we could do the daily weigh-in without post but that is where ACCOUNTABILITY comes in. Thanks again!

R15 SW 225.9
R16 SW 225.9
Goal for this round is to continue to work on increasing my stretching.
Day/Weight/Comment
9/10--226.6 This is a normal fluctuation. I know that I did not drink a lot of water yesterday, I find it is difficult on the weekends. However, yesterday I successfully ate at my calorie level, which I find is a challenge on the weekends, and I stretched. Today I'm going out for lunch, so the weight will probably be up tomorrow from the additional sodium.
9/11--227.9 There it is. The additional sodium from lunch yesterday plus a lack of hydration results in the gain. No worries, will just wait for it to go. I did get my stretching in yesterday, so that is a plus.
9/12--227.2 Ugh, forgot to stretch yesterday. Sill working on making it a habit.
9/13--226.4 Stretched yesterday. My NSV yesterday was that I was feeling bored at about 7:30 last night and felt like eating even though I wasn't hungry, so I went for a run instead...I haven't run in over 7 months.
9/14--225.9 Back to where I started. I have really tightened up my food weighing/tracking the last few days and it shows. Stretched yesterday.
9/15--225.3 I didn't think I was going to go down on the scale today because I had trouble sleeping last night and I thought it would affect my weigh in, but I'll take it. Forgot to stretch yesterday--still working on making it a habit.
9/16--225.7 I will take it--ate about 700 calories over my calorie amounts. I think some of it has to do with the fact that I was tired, but it could have been a lot worse. Main goal for today is to keep hydrated. Forgot to stretch.
9/17--225.5 Yesterday was a NSV for me. I preplanned my meals, but of course things happen and after eating a dessert at lunch that I hadn't planned for, I was going to be 400 calories over my daily calorie goal so I had to rework my dinner meal. Well, my husband made dinner, but I exchanged some items for lower calorie foods and took the dog out for a 3rd walk of the day and I was able to come in only 15 calories over my daily goal. It would have been easy for me to just go ahead with what I had originally planned for dinner, but I made the decision and took the time to rework the number of calories for my dinner. It wasn't easy, but I felt so better after making the decision. Stretched yesterday!

9/10: 130.4
Today is the second day in a row I've gone up. Yesterday was the second day in a row I'd over eaten. Well ok then. Let's hope I do better tonight because we are watching a soccer game and we ALWAYS order pizza. I've already made a conscious decision not to eat it if my husband does order it. He fell off the healthy wagon and it's started affecting my eating occasionally, which honestly may be good, as I was being very restrictive. But in other ways I am worried that I will fall off the wagon too. Balance.
9/11: 129.6
Yay! No pizza. My knees started hurting last night though, which in my case means I need to be exercising them more. However, we are in preservation mode right now, as Irma is on top of us!!
9/12: 129.6
Staying steady. It seems like when I drink a good bit of water my weight doesn't fluctuate as much.
9/13: 129.2
That's great and all but since I'm reporting my weight at the end of the day (even though I weighed in this AM), I will confess that I just a huge thing of Japanese ice cream. Sorry not sorry. Guess it's time to chug water. Can you pee out calories? Lololol!!
9/14: 129.2
Steady is better than gaining I suppose.
9/15 129.2
9/16: 129.2
This seems to be a new plateau for me. I'm getting th hubby to check the scale for me if it hasn't fluctuated at all for the rest of the challenge. Usually it moves around a little bit.
9/17: 128.4
Scale isn't broken. Hubby stood on it yesterday and then I weighed in this AM. Went to a baseball game yesterday and so I relaxed a little bit on what I ate because I walked about 10 miles around town beforehand. And I also cheated by saving up most of my calories for that meal lol. Delicious. But our team lost. :-(

Round 12: 174
Round 13: 171.4
Round 15: 166.8
Round 16: 164.6
9/10: 164.6 I was holding at 163-something for a few days in the past round, but it's jumped back up. I ran on the treadmill yesterday, and did indulge in some ribs last night for dinner. I also am holding on to some stress. Just daily life stuff, but I have a hard time sleeping when I think too much. I am so happy with the downward trend, though. Typing in those #s above: I've lost almost 10 pounds!
9/11: 166.3 I figured as much, based on my comments above. Had some rich food and a glass of prosecco last night, too. It's Monday, back to my routine.
9/12: 166.3 Was able to get back on track yesterday. Went 100 over in calories, but got in a good run last night. Rethinking some of my food choices, as every night I am too high in carbs. Need some more protein. Today so far, so good, although I am craving fish tacos from the taco truck on our campus, and not the lunch I brought!
9/13: 166.3 It's almost 11pm and I am just now remembering to track my weight from this morning. Busy busy day!
9/14: 164.4 We had a storm here yesterday, so was feeling very cozy. Made a roast chicken dinner for the family last night. Kids thought it was Christmas...
Up to 30 mins of running now on my C210K app!
9/15: 164.4 No exercise yesterday and some sugar in the evening. Which was way too sweet, so my tastebuds have changed. Friend's birthday party tonight and someone signed us up for line dancing.
So that will be my exercise tonight!
9/16: 164.4
9/17: 164.4 Over in calories yesterday but kept pretty busy with laundry (woo hoo) and got my run in.

9/15 - 169. First week back on MFP. Logged breakfast and lunch already to get back in the habit!
9/16 - 168.2. Looong day at work today, with a giant snack table. Hope I can avoid grazing on too much.
9/17 - 168. Mostly water but Yay! Woke up with a cold, blech. Oh well, I was half expecting it - bought a house and moved 2 weeks ago, then my parents evacuated from Florida. Now that I'm relaxing and less stressed, time to get sick.

Re: use of "Woo" button in this challenge.
I've been occasionally using the woo button as above to mean "Yes, I am commiserating with you. It figures." See the previous post where Meghanebk says she's coming down with a cold because she finally has time to relax after a stressful period. I can't say I like her statement because that implies I'm glad she got a cold. So, I picked woo to mean, "I hear ya. That sucks!"
Does what I'm saying make sense to you all about using the button that way? How would you take an occasional woo in this context?4 -
This is my first round! I've been lurking for a couple of rounds but I decided it was finally time to join. Trying not to lose too quickly because I find I tend to go off the rails if I lose too quickly.

R15 (R1 for me) ave 151.8
Round 16
9/10 - 151.6
Last week I didn't get my usual exercise due to smoke/hazardous air quality from forest fires. My calories averaged 1830 and weight stayed steady, so this round I'm going to keep my calories at that level but get back to my usual walking 60-120 min/day and see what happens. I find these daily check ins inspiring and motivational, so thanks!
9/11 - 151.6
I went about 200 over my calorie goal, so ok. :-)
9/12 - 151.2
Back to walking (90 minutes yesterday) - yay!
9/13 - 151
Getting my daily walks and sticking to my calories goal (~1850). I've also changed my macro goals a bit this time around to 25-30% protein, 30-35% fat (heavy on healthy fats), and 35-40% carbs (mostly non-starchy veggies, fruits, and a teeny bit of whole grain and/or legumes and/or nuts and seeds). Increasing the fat and reducing the carbs slightly makes me less hungry - yay! I do indulge in either a little good chocolate or some licorice - no more that 100 calories, to be eaten slowly and savored! Because all things in moderation, including moderation. :-)
9/14 - 150.8
I had an extra 200 calories yesterday, but all good, healthy ones, and they don't seem to have hurt me so far. It's a gorgeous day here, so I plan to backpack my laptop to Starbucks (30 minutes), work a couple of hours, and backpack home. I've been trying to walk anywhere I need to go within 2 miles (unless I'll have stuff to carry!). I'm a writer and often write in coffee shops, and luckily there are several within 1-2 miles. I just wish my laptop were a bit lighter! But I remind myself that the extra weight = more calories burned. :-)
9/15 - 151.2
Ah, the time lag. Yesterday I ate 1850 and walked 90 minutes, so this small uptick is from Thurs. I think water is also a factor, since I did have more sodium than usual. I won't be walking today (the smoke is back), but I have today's food all planned. I sometimes consider cutting back on calories, but I don't want to mess up my metabolism again, so I'm learning patience. I hope everyone has a great weekend!
9/16 - 151.2
Mexican yesterday, so I didn't expect to lose any. Smoke/air quality is "unhealthy" today, so no long walks again. We're supposed to get rain tonight or tomorrow, so hopefully it will help with the fires and the air quality. Happily, I just put a week's worth of my overnight breakfasts in the fridge - yum yum!
9/17 - 151.2
The air has cleared a bit, so I'm off in a little while to walk to a friend's and then amble around a street fair (and, ok, check out the food trucks). Rain forecast later - hoping for clean air after that!

Day/Weight/Comment
9/10 257.0 I have a real issue with water retention and if I eat salty food I blow up like a balloon, and ya that's where I'm at today. So it's time to do some apple cider vinegar and juicing today and get rid of some fluids. My goal this 10 days is to get off the water wt. and get to my true wt which is probably 3-5 lbs less than this. Good luck everyone.
9/11 256.3 Did about 9000 steps yesterday, eating was ok, plan to go very light today.
9/12 256.0 Heading in the right direction. 9000 steps yesterday and ate healthy.
9/13 255.5 Revised from original post, think scale gave a bad reading.
9/14 255.1 Kinda bummed had hoped to move the needle more, i did 8500 steps and had only about 1600 cals.
9/15 253.7 I have really watched my eating this week, getting about 8500 steps per day. This is what works for me if I will stick to it. Carbs are my downfall, if I cut way back on them the wt comes off and vise versa. Feeling good.

9/10: 165.6 Ewwww. The 165s reared it's ugly head. I'm sure this has *nothing * at all to do with yesterday's Mexican food.
9/11: 165.6 Whew. Could have been worse. Planned to ride my bicycle to watch football but woke up too late. Ate too much. Drank too many calories. First day over 2000 calories in nearly two months, so it's OK.
9/12: 165.0 Alright self, three days of crap eating is enough. Get back to business!
9/13: 164.8 Creeping back down.
9/14: 163.2 Oh please, oh please 163s, stick around for my Friday team challenge weigh-ins!
9/15: 162.8 Thank you, Scale Fairy, for delivering this gift of a new low on team weigh-in day. Yay! Going to do the 162 dance all day today!
9/16: 162.4 Ggggooooaaaalllll! Apparently burned extra calories doing the "162 Dance" yesterday.
9/17: 162.6 Normal bump. If I make it over to watch football today, I fully expect (and deserve) a 1 lb+ water gain tomorrow. All is well.
