Good to see everyone back for Round 8 and good to see some new faces as well! Now let's rock this.
6/22: 169.8 - had a great work out last night, but it left me half dead today. haha.
6/23: 170.0 - way over my sodium yesterday.
6/24: 167.8! - killer workout last night.
6/25: 168.2 - take out for dinner last night. Wasn't over calories, but prob was over sodium. Also, slept in.
6/26: 167.4 - TOM is here and I feel like reheated death so that's a thing. Let's see if I can hold to 167 or below.

GW for 7/1 138
Day Weight Comments
6/22 140.8 I was pleased with this – officially 5lbs down since I started weighing myself daily on 6/12. I took 2 half-hour walks yesterday and was below my calorie count for the day
6/23 140.2 Did a 45 minute bootcamp class last night that kicked my *kitten*! Came in well under my calories for the day, happy to see a loss
6/24 140.2 No change in the scale, I didn’t get in any exercise yesterday so that may explain it
6/25 139.4 Reached my first mini goal, to be at my pre-pregnancy weight! Had a good day yesterday – resisted pizza and brownies at a family get together
6/26 140 A little surprised I’m up today, I had a good day yesterday... less water intake, maybe that affected it. Oh well, it’s a new week!

SW 140
GW for this challenge 130 - I did 2 rounds of this, got below 130 then missed a round. I'm back up to 133.
6/22. 133.4 - ate well, below calories.
6/23. 133.2 - a tiny drop. Did a HIIT workout this morning and my goal is to get in a run tonight.
6/24 -133.2 - did long circuit training workout last night and was within calorie goal. Feeling good, though no drop.
6/25 -134.2 - aftermath of sushi yesterday, waterweight from salt retention
6/26 -135.0 - this is a trend in the wrong direction. I deserve it though after the sushi, a bit of chocolate yesterday and no workouts all weekend. Really regretting my decisions this weekend and feeling heavy and gross.

GAME ON!
I need a support system in my life. It's hard to exercise and change the way you eat when you're the only one in a family of 5 that wants to make changes. That makes it even more difficult to stay accountable, and I need that. I hadn't felt right in about 6 months. I was so fatigued and being a teacher, a Mom of 3, and taking care of my niece and nephew so their parents can work, I need all the energy that I can get. Yet, I was falling asleep as early as 6:30, and I felt like I didn't sleep at all when the alarm went off at 6. I started noticing that my left arm started to tingle and become numb. Then, it spread down my left side and all the way down to my toes. My grip was weaker, and I was struggling to open jars. I finally went to the doctor, and I found out I have a B12 deficiency due to taking medication prescribed from my specialist for GERD. I also discovered that my LDL (bad cholesterol) was better than it has been, but it was still bad, and my HDL (good cholesterol) was too low. It was recommended I lose 7 -10% of my body weight, take 1000 B12 supplement, and exercise 30 minutes a day for a total of 150 minutes a week. So, here I am...trying to improve my health. It isn't an easy thing to do, so I wanted to be a part of something that would keep me motivated and support me along the way. I want to stay on the wagon. I need to. When I started my weight loss journey, I was 202 lbs. This is my first round doing the 10 day challenge. With that being said...
06/22: 195
06/23: 193.5
06/24: 192.5
06/25: 191.5 I AM THRILLED! I JUST HIT MY 10 LB. MARK.
06/26: 193.5 I AM BUMMED! Sometimes, I think that weighing myself every day is bad for my mental health because when I see the numbers on the scale go up, I get incredibly upset. However, it's almost like this compulsive thing that has me going back down to the scale every single morning to see if anything has changed at all. Today, is one of the days that I wish that I never would have looked. I stayed under my calorie intake yesterday, but I must be truthful, I had a slice of my own birthday cake. It's almost 500 calories alone for this cake! Also, since I exercised 6 days straight, I gave my body an active resting day. Now, I feel so guilty. I pushed myself to do an hour of cardio and upper body strength this morning, and I feel sick, sick, sick to my stomach. It's awful!6 -
Round 7: 172.3
First goal: 170
6/22 - 171.9 > Well this was a surprise this morning!! Made the kid walk up the steepest hill in town with me.
6/23 - 172.1 < Huge after dinner hike and a Berry Protein Smoothie for dessert. Was a good day.
6/24 - 170.9 > Getting so close. Had a nice walk and (2) glasses of wine. Great evening and SO is home ❤️
6/25 - 172.0 <
6/26 - 172.4 < Ugghh a busy weekend with Wine and BBQ salads etc on both days!! I'm getting back on track and SO is away for at least 21 days ... I do amazing with my calories when he's gone. lol Hoovering above my 170 mark would like to hit this soon.

6/23: 215.8 -- Better, esp. considering I judged a taco contest last night.
6/24: 214.8 -- zumba and music festival today. I expect this won't last.
6/25: 214.8 -- stayed under my calories yesterday, a minor miracle.
6/26: 214.8 -- Yesterday was a damn mess. I expect the scale will react over the next couple days.

Goal = 133 pounds
6/22 145.0 - Need to do this!!! My clothes don't fit!!!
6/23 144.6 - walked today before it turned to 107 degrees!
6/24 144.4 - walked today before it turned to 105 degrees!
6/25 144.5 - didn't walk today and now it's too late! stinko!
6/26 144.4 - 2.76 mi. walk with dog. The Delta breezes are back in the Sacramento, CA oven, so it was only 67° when I started. A little discouraged about my weight because I have faithfully tracked that I was not consuming over 1200 calories. Think I had too much salt yesterday. I'll be drinking my 8 glasses of water today for sure!

Calm down. Everyone fluctuates: hormones, water retention, too much sodium, whatever. Remember who won the race? The turtle. Of course we all hate to see the numbers go up but try to assure yourself that they will go down. Keep at it and they will.

Day Weight Comments
6/22-166.0
6/23-166.0
6/24-166.0/ I was reading and seen someone mention there scale was acting winky and needed new batteries, so I thought maybe mine is too. I weighed 164 then 166 today.... So I will see tomorrow what the difference is.
6/25-166.4/ I guess the batteries were good, still hanging on to the same number. Better then going up on a weekend.
6/26-166.6/ I think I need a new scale it gave me 4 random numbers so I picked the one that was similar to other days ugh. I had an awesome moment I fit into a size 9/10 and I haven't been in that size since 8th grade and I'm not 32 woohoo

Don't get too thrown by the daily variations. You will go up and down two or three pounds seemingly overnight due to water retention. Something as simple as eating something salty or exercising with increase water retention for a day or two. The extra calories of a few alcoholic drinks will have less effect on the scale than the dehydrating effects overnight.
Don't pile on guilt about these variations in weight. In fact, don't pile guilt on yourself PERIOD. In my experience, guilt is usually followed by a what-the-hell-I-can't-do-it-anyway reaction that leaves me where I started.

Thank you for the very kind words. I pushed myself so hard today that I ended up at the ER. I sat in the parking lot for an hour but managed to not go in, but I was close. I'm not feeling well at all. My doctor says I just pushed my body harder than what it I am physically capable of at this time. Is the actual app called a Happy Scale?5 -
It is. Just google it or search in the App Store.3
