Helllllooooo! I'm in again! I think I started joining this challenge in round 2 or 3? Weighing and logging daily has definitely been a huge motivator for me...along with this group as we do this together!!
SW - March 2017 - 182.4
GW - Was originally 150 but now that I expect to get there pretty soon I'm thinking I'd like to make that the top of my maintenance range...so now I'm going to shoot for 145...but get there slowly so by the time I'm there I've got a really good idea of what calorie and activity level I need to maintain to stay in that general vicinity.
9/09 - 150.4 - coming in from round 15...goal for round 16 is to break 150 and have the BMI number on my tracker not be in the "overweight" range for the first time in probably 11 years.
Day/Weight/Comment
9/10 - 151.6 - normal blip on a weekend after a big drop week....not worried.
9/11 - 151.2 - Happy Monday! I always find the work week routine easier to keep so I'm looking forward to progress in the right direction.
9/12 - 151.8 - Up early for a client this morning so my "elimination schedule" is a bit off...my activity and calories have been on point the last couple of days so I know it will come off. Just doing my typical "bounce around a pound" before it whooshes on the scale.
9/13 - 151.2 - Still bouncing around this pound
9/14 - 151.4 - and another 151 number....
9/15 - 151.0 - SOOO close LOL...I've been below 151 twice!! Just wasn't going to happen again today. Hoping to stay on track this weekend so I can break this barrier...but hubby is bringing lobster home from the east coast today so I expect a feast tonight...
9/16 - 149.0!!!!! - WHOOSH...there it is!!! BMI 24.8!!! Trust the science people!! Even when it looks like you're not progressing your body is doing what it needs to do. Consume fewer calories than you spend and it will come off. On another note....hubby's flight was delayed yesterday so the Lobster feast is tonight...and I'm going to relish in every butter drenched bite!!!
9/17 - 150.4 - Lobster, salted butter and to much wine....but totally worth it!! Will get a good trail run with the dog and kettlebell work out when we get back from hockey this morning.
9/18 151.0 - My parent's took us out for dinner last night so this is sodium and some food waste as I seem to be a bit constipated...Water, water, water today and hopefully this little blip will be gone tomorrow.
9/19 - 149.8 - I did it...finished the round under 150!!
See you all in round 17!!8 -
Ultimate goal - 135
R16 Goals: eat well, ~1830 cals, walk 60+ and stretch daily, weight training 30 min/3 days
5'3", 64 yrs
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!
9/18 - 152
@ see what tomorrow brings.
9/19 - 151.4
Well, only .2/lb in the 10 days, but down at least! I have eaten a bit more than usual the past few days, so at least I know why. Next round! I don't plan to cut calories much, but do plan to cut back on carbs (grains) a bit to see what happens. See you at R 17!

Starting weight 2012: 201
Starting weight 2017: 184
9/10: 175 lbs. I made worse food choices today than I have in over a month. I did log everything, at least, and stuck to no sugar.
9/11: 175 lbs. My day off, I lazed around. The day isn't over but so far I'm staying well within my calories and no sugar. Not enough protein, though.
9/12: 175.5 lbs, ugh, still paying for Sunday's cheese binge maybe. Well, I'm under my daily calories again today, no added sugar, no impulse eating. Been doing well on getting enough water. Haven't been eating after 8:00 pm.
9/13: 175 lbs. Staying in my calories, no added sugar, no impulse eating, plenty of water, decent amt of protein, it's early yet but no reason to eat after 8pm. Boring work day but decent diet day.
9/14: 173 lbs. I know it's a fluctuation, but I'll take it! I was stuck in a 175.5/175/175.5 loop for 10 days so I needed a win. I'm now officially 10+ lbs down from when I rejoined MFP this time.
9/15: 174 lbs. I knew yesterday wasn't for real, oh well. Stayed in calories, no added sugar, no impulse eating.
I'm a little concerned about tomorrow, I have a physical event at work and there will be lots of snacks. Bringing nuts and dried apricots for an energy boost so i can avoid the sugary granola bars. I might be very hungry if I stay in my calories for the day but it won't really be loggable exercise. (A lot of standing in the sun & carrying things around.)
9/16: 175 lbs. Nooooooo not again. I'm eating fewer than 1500 calories, not sure what's going on.Work event went fine, tired but I didn't need to snack.
Side note, It's been more than 6 weeks since I quit *almost* every form of added sugar or sugar substitute, and I've been patting myself on the back about not having sugar cravings. Then last night I had a detailed dream about eating a giant tray of cookies while drinking a sweet liqueur. So maybe I haven't quite beat my little sugar addiction yet.
9/17: 175 forever
Ate a little sugar for the first time in weeks, the BF took me to an Italian Food Festival and we shared pasta, a lemonade and a cannoli. Not at all a binge, hard to feel sorry but it remains to be seen if this affects my ability to keep sugar out of my daily life.
9/18: One Seventy Five
The app says I've averaged right around 1400 calories the last two weeks, but no loss. I am meticulous in weighing and logging. Maintenance for me should be around 1700 or more. Stay the course... Maybe I'll go down to 1300 calories.
9/19: 174.5
Loss for this round: .5
This was my first time in this group, love the support. I'm looking forward to Round 17.10 -

Day/Weight/Comment
9/10: 203.00- Oh yay, gained everything i lost last week in about 2 days lol!!This is water weight I'm sure. I had a lot of alcohol the past two days, didnt log, ate out dinner the past two days as well. I tried to keep it healthy but I know it was probably packed with Na+ and sugar. Also didnt drink half my normal amount of water. So heres to recovering from all the damage I did!
9/11- 204.5 same trend as last week! I have all my meals planned out for the week. Looking forward to doing better!
9/12- 205 scale is playing games this am lol. I don't believe it.
9/13- 201.6 yay heading back down. This is more like it! Hopefully I stay on this trend. Ive hit 100oz of water the past two days without trying so very happy with that
9/14- didn't weigh today. I pulled a muscle or something in my leg and decided to skip the gym this am. but I plan on staying under calories and meeting water goal again today.
9/15 - 199.2 yay back down to ending weight from last round. Now let's continue this trend please
9/16- rest day
9/17- 199.8 not bad, I'm just happy to be under 200, even if is by just .2
9/18- 197.4 : I got a new scale and this was my measurement. I stepped on it a few times and got the same number. The old scale I was using was the traditional slide the big blocks scale and was inaccurate imo. So I'll give it a few days to really compare, but I like the number either way!
9/19-197.2 YES! I win!! What a great way to end this round....on to the next7 -
@PrincesseAly23 You appear to be 1.3 pounds less than your first posted weight. That's not bad for being on vacation!
@Kimylara I have also had to play with my macros. I'm only down .5# this round but down is down! You have had an awesome round!!
This seems to have been a sticky round for many of us. We need to follow @eyer0ll and PUSH THROUGH in the next round!
On a side note: on July 17, I started keto. I've lost about 12 pounds in that time with some fluctuations. The biggest change I have made is eliminating grain from my diet. My knees have quit hurting (they've hurt since I was 17, and I'm now 67,) my fingers no longer hurt when I hand sew or type. I wish I could convince my husband to do this, too. I think he would feel a lot better!5 -

9/19
@shoui16 This is exactly the reason I don't cut anything out of my diet, I am allowed what I want (as long as it fits my day) .. I also "bank" calories if I have a night out planned so that I can enjoy my night without much thought ..
enjoy your croissant
I'm trying to avoid bread, pasta, and other processed carbs as much as possible, primarily because, I get hungry too soon if I consume them. I opted to eat more vegetables instead, but there are just times that it's difficult to ignore them. I think I already ate pasta twice since I joined this challenge in Round 15. Oh but I finally got t enjoy the croissant with some cream cheese, so I'm satisfied now.

Joined MFP at 207 lbs
SW when I joined this challenge: 193.8
End R15 (my first round): 189.6
Goal R16: 186
UWG: 120-130
9/10 - 189.4 -- happy to see another loss! Woke up With sore muscles though; might need to pass up the dancing session today if I don't get better 'til later. Supposed break is for tomorrow, might take it today instead.
9/11 - 190 -- yesterday was quite a disaster. My housemate, who was quite a good cook, made spaghetti. The sinful aroma, that creamy sauce...ok, I gave in and had some, went over my calories...
9/12 - 188.7 -- nice. Just need to continue with my current diet.
9/13 - 188.7 -- ok. Still looking good, at least it stayed the same and didn't go up.
9/14 - 187.2 -- yey! My all time low for the past months!
9/15 - 187.2 -- steady, steady! Slowly but will surely make it to my goal.
9/16 - 190.7 -- I blew it! This is even more than my end weight last round! Weekends are really horrible! Why is it so difficult to control myself during my day off? Oh well, at least I knew where this weight came from. Pizza, pasta, and lots lots of salt. Got 3 more days before this round ends. Got a lot to fix!
9/17 - 189.2 -- Got rid half of the water weight already. I really need to exercise more control. I always find myself in this position a day or two after my day off. Feels so good to be living healthy again (though I admit that mindless eating felt good as well, arghh, but I don't wanna feel this way everytime my day off ends...)
9/18 - 187.4 -- Yey! Finally back on track! However, I think I'm being too hard on myself, to the point that I'm becoming paranoid, so I'm giving myself today as a break. I love food ever since I'm a kid and I don't wanna see myself giving up on losing weight just because I can't eat some foods because I'm prohibiting myself. So yeah, I'm really gonna eat that croissant (just a piece, 'cause for some reason, I just can't stop eyeing it) and go back to my usual tomorrow.
9/19 - 187.8 -- Expecting this since I gave myself a break yesterday. But back on track for the rest of the day. I'm a little sad though 'cause I didn't hit my end goal for this round (186lbs), but tomorrow is a brand new day... I'm hyped for the next round!

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.
9/18: 163.0 There's my sodium friends from yesterday! Plus my monthly friend decided to visit a few days early. TOM always brings some extra luggage. However, average over last 10 days is now under 164. Woohoo!
9/19: 162.6 Pretty good round. 1.4 pound loss and goal number came up during round. Round 17, here I come!

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.
9/18: 164.4 dang! Although totally fine with holding steady. Avoided a near catastrophe with pizza and wine yesterday afternoon. Was able to reel myself in.
9/19: 164.4 I am going to sit this next one out, only because I leave Friday for another business trip and will be without a scale for seven of the days. And I don't know if I will be able to check in; working at our biggest event of the year and it will keep me busy. I'll catch up with you all in Round 18!2 -

Day/Weight/Comment
9/10 - 223.8 - i was already down to 223.4 so this is almost there. Although i played about 4 hours of baseball and dodgeball today, I had my first binge day on 1.5 months and ate over 1500 calories in just sweets. I'm disappointed in myself but determined to get back on track tomorrow. I'm going to skip the gym to let my body heal a bit from this weekend but will go on an 8.5km walk. I am also doing a practice with my dodgeball team! I'm hoping the scale isn't too mean tomorrow!
9/11 - 225.0 - as expected. I'm out walking now. Getting back on track. My consequence for eating any sweets is 200 jumping jacks!
9/12 - 223.6 - ok. I'm almost back to my lowest. I would like to get to 223.0 before i leave for my trip Friday and then my goal for the weekend will be to maintain! I did baseball practice today.. I need to rest my hips and knees so no gym or walk tomorrow but i will do a few exercises at home. I have been trying to stop eating sweets so made myself a deal I would do 200 jumping jacks for everyone I had... so I need to do 400 tomorrow lol.
9/13 - 224.0 - damn. I guess the treats and not going to the gym are catching up to me despite doing some sports exercises. I did a bunch of errands today getti g ready for my trip and 200/400 jumping jacks. I will get them done by end of day. Tomorrow is may weigh in for biggest loser challenge and it doesn't look like I lost anything this week. I'm going away this weekend and hoping between all the walking and trying to choose healthy options I will maintain so I don't have to spend a whole week trying to burn it all off.
9/14 - 222.4!!! Woohoo! I completely forgot how my TOM affects my water retention and weight. This ended yesterday which i believe helps account for the big loss. Today I am packing and cleaning my house so that should burn a few calories. I also plan to stay within my calories for the day!
9/15 222.0 woohoo!
9/16 - vacation no scale
9/17 - vacation no scale
9/18 - vacation no scale
9/19 - 223.0 - not too bad considering I ate out for every meal for 3.5 days in a row! And i didn't gain 5-10lbs like I don't when i normally travel so this is a win in itself! On to the next challenge!1 -

9/13 choose not to weigh. Had a horrible day yesterday of binge eating. :-/ But I'm on track today. One day at a time.
9/14 181.5 I don't really know why I'm binge eating. My husband is gone for at least 3 days every week and that's usually when I do it. I am so embarrassed and humiliated over my binge eating. You all are the only people who know I do it. My sweet husband knows I've done it in the past but I haven't told him about my recent 'episodes.' I get in these kinda depressed states and then binge, feel HORRIBLE, then do it again!! Besides getting trigger foods out of the house, I'm going to make it more public. I'm just going to keep track of how long I can go without a lapse. Thanks for listening.

GW1: 142
9/10: 159.6 /I'm very disappointed with this weight. Ate very poorly yesterday for the first time in over 40 days. Yesterday I was at 158. Ate well and went swimming today. Hopefully, I'll be back down tomorrow!
9/11: 160.2 /Still disappointed. I feel like I'm paying the price for poor eating on Saturday. I ate under my goal yesterday and will be just under my goal today. Hopefully, things will start looking up again.
9/12: 158 /Finally back to where I was on Saturday! Hopefully it's onward and downward from here! Ate under calories yesterday. Need to go to the gym today!
9/13: 157.8 /Really loved the WOOSH yesterday and glad it's sticking around! Did make it to the gym yesterday but only did weights. Didn't have the energy for cardio. Will try to do both today! Stayed within calorie goal but went over by 50g in carbs yesterday. And had a square of apple pie today . I'll make sure to stay in my calorie range today despite the treat!
9/14: 157 /Started weighing everyday for this challenge, so I downloaded the Happy Scale app to track the trend. I'm curious to see what it'll show once it has more data points. Stayed within calories yesterday but didn't go to the gym. I will go today! Packed my gym clothes and everything. Did a tad better with water but have to drink more today.
9/15: 157 /Stayed at 157...I'm glad it's not going up! Ate well and did both weights and cardio yesterday. Ate all right up until now today but going to a work bar thing which may deadly. Fingers crossed that I don't go over in calories too much, especially because I have a reunion brunch on Sunday with grad school friends.
9/16 156.2 /This is crazy...I actually expected an increase because I had alcohol and pizza yesterday (just 20 over my calories, but expected water retention). I imagine it's a fluke. I guess I'll see tomorrow...before going to brunch, eek!
9/17: 156.4/I'm happy. Logged this weight in my progress tracker. Probably going to see an uptick tomorrow because of eating restaurant food for brunch today.
9/18: 157.8 /Meh, not pleased. Hoping it's water retention but who knows. Did some circuit training today and ate within calories. Struggling to get all my protein in. One more day until round 17 ladies and gents!
9/19: 157.6 / You win some, you lose some. Had a long day at work today. Didn't get home until well after 8. Potentially stayed under calories but a lot of estimates today. Hoping to get below 156 in the next round!

]Love, love, love this group! I'm really hoping to step up my water intake these 10 days. I really struggled doing that last round. My goal this round is to lose between 1 - 2lbs.

09/10: 175 My Mom is still in the hospital. I've been there with her the last several days. According to the xrays, nothing has changed. Since I've been there, I haven't been getting as many steps in as I have been. I definitely didn't drink much water, and my calorie intake was low.
09/11: 176.6 Well, the whoosh I had last week, I've gained back due to lack of water consumption or hormones. My ovulation cycle is always so hard on me. I think I feel the worst then. Of course, being at the hospital and not moving much isn't great either. However, I managed to get my lesson plans done while I was there.
09/12: 175.8 Well, I managed to drink more water yesterday, and I put in about 7500 steps, which is a lot for me considering the field I work in. I hope I get back to 174.4 (where I ended last round) by the time this round ends at least.
09/13: 175 lbs Mom was moved into a rehab facility last night. She's slightly improved but no significant change. She has no strength at all. She doesn't want to be there, but she can't be alone. She doesn't want to be with us either because it's 30 minutes away from the cancer center. My husband is beside himself. I just pray that I have the strength that he and I both need to carry him through this. Upside: I managed to get 44 oz of water in the last two days. Woot! I've been struggling with just 28. So, I'm proud of that.
09/14: 176.2 I know this is from sodium due to Mexican for dinner, but after the 2 weeks we've had and no family time due to being at the hospital and now rehab, I think we deserved it. It was our first evening together as a family...just the 5 of us.
09/15: 175 I'm back to the same weight for the 3rd time. Lol I need to drink more water.
09/16: 174.4 It was such a busy day yesterday. I put in over 11,000 steps! MIND BLOWN! I even have 6 boys in my house since my sons have their buddies over.
09/17: 174.4 Worked on getting my lesson plans put together yesterday while I got 4 boys sent back home to their parents...some which stayed a lot longer than planned. However, I'm holding steady, and that makes me happy. If I could just lose 4 more ounces, I'd be down 1 lb. I need just that bit for a 28lb drop. Come on scale, body, and mind! Let's do this!
09/18: 174.2 Oooo...I dropped 2 oz. Just give me 2 more ounces baby. PRETTY PLEASE!
09/19: 174.8 I am only walking away with a 2 oz loss this Round. At least it's something, and at least I'm not gaining.:)
