End R7: 215

End R9: 213.8
End R10: 209.4

Goal R11: lose 1 lb.

7/22: 209.4 -- under calories and worked out yesterday. A friend is coming in from out of town this weekend.
7/23: 210 -- over calories yesterday but worked out. Arms are sore.
7/24: 213.8 -- posting this for accountability but it's probably inaccurate since I weighed after having coffee and a bite with my friend this morning and seeing her off. Over calories yesterday, but I walked quite a bit more than usual. Even though we hit two restaurants yesterday I ate and drank less than I would have a few months ago, so I'm calling it an NSV.
7/25: 213.2 -- blergggghhhh. Under calories, worked out yesterday.
7/26: 213.2 --under calories, worked out yesterday. So frustrating.
7/27: 210.8 -- over calories, worked out yesterday. Frustrated and unmotivated. Dinner out tonight, too.
7/28: 210.8 -- I've spent the majority of this week annoyed at myself for overeating. However, I have made different choices than I would have months ago; I've continued to work out, and even though I overate at dinner yesterday, I didn't drink. So in the spirit of trying to be kind to myself, I say: Baby steps. Onward and downward.

@HeidiCooksSupper, thanks for the encouragement.

I think what you said is the key that what we are doing is a lifestyle change. You said that even though you overate your choices were different than they would have been months ago. Same here. I really overate yesterday, but my choices had fewer calories than they would have before I started MFP and logging over a year ago. Then I would have ordered a 1800 calorie mean plus a 900 calorie dessert at dinner at cheesecake factory alone instead of a 580 meal plus a 150 cal glass of wine.

7/22 / 182. Weekends are hard.
7/23. 181.4. I was not expecting that but I'll take it. Not the best or worst day food-wise but my kids kept me on my feet at least. . Meal planning and grocery shopping today.
7/24. 180.4 !!!!!!!!!!
7/25 182.6. What? lol. I stayed within calories and worked out yesterday, so I guess I'm just holding on to some water. Some extra carbs too. Drinking lots of water today. Planning to lift weights tonight so I'll probably be holding on to more water tomorrow.
7/26 181.0. Trying to have a lower calorie day today and lots of water.
7/27 180.6... I had a good workout last night with sore muscles today, so I am happy with this. Can't wait to see the # drop under 180 though!
7/28 180.4. I had a sleep-refusing child last night, super tired! Taking it easy on the exercise today.

End of Round 10: 163.0
Goal for Round 11: 161.0

7/22: 162.8 - right direction.
7/23: 163.4 - weekends have been hard this month.
7/24: 163.2 - under calories, but not enough water or sleep. TOM is also here.
7/25: 162.8 - feel bloated so I was surprised at this number. weight is moving slow.
7/26: 163.8 - TOM is still here. still feel bloated. this 10 days isn't going as expected, but I'm content with it.
7/27: 163.6 - can't tell what's going on with my weight. might just be TOM.
7/28: 164.4 - not surprised at this. feel very 'heavy'. Idk what's up besides TOM is just leaving and I've been over my carbs almost everyday this week. been under calories and sodium so I know that's not it. just haven't been a great week for weight loss, but I'm not discouraged.

I'm right with you! TOM is here and I can't lose for the life of me. I'm staying on track and hoping for a whoosh!

Round 11: (Round 4 for me. Female/aged 71, weight in lbs)
SW: 227; Lowest weight 22/6/2017: 162; Final goal weight: 147
Round 8: lowest, 162.0; highest, 169.0; mean, 165.5 (5 day holiday created overage)
Round 9: lowest, 164.8; highest, 169.0; mean, 166.8
Round 10: lowest, 166.0; highest, 168.0; mean 167.7 (166 on 4 days! I know I can improve on that!)
Round 11 GW: 164

22/07/2017: 166.8. -0.6 on yesterday. Today's focus is to balance macros/micros, hydrate, 10,000+ steps, 20 strength, 20 flex.
23/07/2017: 166.6. Another -0.2. Family day today, so I got my strength and flex in early. Goals: balanced macro/micros, hydrate, 10,000+ steps, eat moderately this afternoon at my daughter's house. It's not easy to refuse when my grandson has baked for my visit, so I keep calories in reserve.
24/07/2017: 165. Wow! Didn't expect that whoosh! Had some baked goods and chocolate, but stayed under calories and stayed hydrated.
Today's Goals: pre-log/follow through to balance macros/micros; hydrate; 10,000+ steps, 20 strength, 20 flex.
25/07/2017: 165.6. Normal fluctuation. Today is my wedding anniversary, so I'm expecting a little more 'fluctuation' tomorrow morning!
26/07/2017: 166.5. And there it is! Lol! I enjoyed a marvellous day. Cause and effect! High sodium from restaurant meal, so holding water.
Today's Goals: pre-log/follow through to balance macros/micros; hydrate; 20 strength, 20 flex ✅; 10,000+ steps. ✅
27/07/2017: 165.6. Now to stay on track. Pre-logging food (including snacks) helps plan meals. I tweak amounts when I weigh the cooked food.
Today's Goals: pre-log/follow through to balance macros/micros; hydrate; 20 strength ✅; 20 flex ✅; 10,000+ steps ✅
28/07/2017: 165.8. Almost steady! Stiff muscles from all the leg work I have been doing, and my knee was playing up again yesterday, so I eased off a bit today on the lower body work. I think it was the Dynamic Yoga that did it. I will do a gentle Tai Chi session today.
Today's Goals: pre-log/follow through; balance macros/micros; hydrate; 20 strength ✅; 20 flex; 10,000+ steps

29/07/2017: 164.4. WOW! Another mini Whoosh! Sticking to the plan pays off. Let's hope I can sustain this until Monday.
Today's Goals: pre-log/follow through; balance macros/micros; hydrate; 20 strength ✅; 20 flex ✅; 10,000+ steps

GW for this Round: 186 (I'll be back to the weight I was when my husband first met me 10 years ago.)
Ultimate GW: 125 lbs.

7/22 187: Walked quite a bit yesterday. I actually did more than my daily steps. I did decrease my calories a little throughout the day because I had a planned evening out with 5 of my friends and former colleagues at Applebees. I wanted to make sure that I could enjoy my dinner without worrying too much about my calorie consumption. I thought about canceling even though it was in the making for about a month due to family circumstances, but my husband insisted that I go. I am glad I did. I needed that mental break. I did enjoy it, and I stuck to my diet with steak, steamed broccoli, and water. Yes, it's red meat, and no, I don't eat it often. I stick to white, but red meat is good for my HDL, and I have to boost that up. I didn't eat any breads, even though broccoli does have carbs in it, and I stuck to water. I even skipped dessert and appetizers.

7/23 186.2 I denied myself pizza and instead made a quesadilla. Yes, it was still carbs AND bread, but since it's a tortilla, it was less. I even made a low carb dessert, and it was awesome! First time in a month and a half that I allowed myself something sweet, but I did it the right way.

7/24 186 ✔ I was really hungry yesterday, and I felt that way pretty much the entire day. It was so hard not to go and scrounge around in the fridge for more and more food or even to have a late night snack. I hope this weight holds. It was my goal for this challenge, and I'm now back to my premarital weight.

7/25 185.8 I started the 7-day walking plan yesterday, and I increased my steps by 500 from the goal Samsung Health had set for me. My legs are killing me today! I surpassed by goal by 1,500 steps. I'm usually out biking, but I wanted to shake it up. My body was getting adjusted to it, and when that happens, it's hard to keep losing (from what I read). So, here I am...trying something new for the week.

7/26 185.4 I put in my full 40 minutes for my walking plan yesterday, drank 48 oz. of water, and put in an extra 2500 steps to boot. I also tried out a quick and easy new recipe called "nice" cream on my kids to see if they enjoyed the ice cream that was on so good for your body instead of your booty. It was a hit!

7/27 184.6 This is not a number I expected to see this morning. It was a date night with my hubby, but I stuck to my diet at the restaurant. I completed my 3rd day of the walking plan, and I went over my steps by 2000+.

7/28 184.4 Not much of a loss, but I've made great progress this week. I'll definitely take it! I did my 4th day of my walking plan and put in 10,000 steps. Stayed under my calorie intake for the day too.

7/29 184.8 I'm up a little. I'm not surprised either because I practically slept through the entire night, and I usually don't eat past 6, but it was around 8 when I was able to have dinner. Granted, I ate a salad, but it was late. I completed my day 5 walk, and I had over 13g steps in. It was a busy, busy day preparing my kids to go back to school Monday.
