Really struggling to get workouts in and stay within calories. It's not an excuse, but my mom is in hospice care in my home and I'm her primary caregiver. Exercise is my therapy and I really need to try and fit it in.
8/3 - 136.0
8/4 - 135.4
8/5 - 136.7
Tacos, Mac salad, French fries, cookies and wine ugh!!
8/6 - I didn't weigh this morning I had another terrible day food wise and couldn't bear to see a higher # than yesterday.
I think we give the numbers too much power. Think of them as sign posts: oops, made a wrong turn, now a u-turn. It's a journey.
@ehseeker I know this wasn't for me .. but your sound advice given has a powerfully rippling effect! Not meaning to sound hippy-dippy just can't think of a better way to say it!5 -
1/8 204
2/8 204.8 could be water as I've upped my intake
3/8 204.8- no difference better than another gain
4/8 205.2- went out with friends last - did pick a healthy option to eat but had a cheeky drink .. so I'm not surprised about the gain. Just want to start going in the other direction before the end of these 10 days. The good thing that I'm starting to make better food choices and starting to up my exercise, so that's a blessing
5/8 205.6 - still going the wrong way, disappointing
6/8 204.8- hopefully this will be the start of the scale going the right way8 -
1/8 - 242.2
2/8 - 237.4
3/8 - 234.0 (heading out for a walk now)
4/8 - 232.0 (- did a 7.5km walk yesterday morning. Tracked all foods. Even prepped veggies for salad and dip an made a quinoa/egg breakfast dish for the week! This is my lowest weight so far since being pregnant so hopefully it me to be smart tonight and tomorrow at the dodgeball tournament.)
5/8 - 231.2 - lowest yet!
6/8 - 233.2 - had a dodgeball tournament yesterday and although i did fairly well eating i had quite a few drinks. Im hopeful it will go back down tomorrow!

R11 SW 354.4
R12 SW 354.0
My 10 day goal is to get to 349 lbs, stay within my daily calories goal and meet or exceed my daily water goal.
8/01 354.0 up from yesterday after burgers and fries with friends, but did a late night workout and met water goal
8/02 351.4 I'm back to where I was at the end of R12. I took a brisk walk, met my water goal and instead of staying up to snack, I went to bed early. Pretty good day.
8/03 350.8 I joined a squats and abs challenge and did some walking. I'm also working on improving flexibility. Drinking water was a struggle, went over cals.
8/04 348.4 Eating was ok, still need to drink more water
8/05 349.2 drank lots of water, but over cals, woke up tired and sore this morning
8/06 350.2 family gathering yesterday, can't let the weight creep back up

7/31: 193.2
R12 GW: 190 and to keep my focus on off/weekend days
UGW: 130
8/1: 192.2 which is 10lbs lost since my first round!! It's my off day, so (even before I weighed in) I decided to do a mini fast for the day. No meat, no grain. Just veggies/fruit and liquid. I've been feeling heavy, even though I'm losing weight, so hopefully this will help.
8/2: 191.4 yay my plan worked. I feel better/lighter and the scale backed me up lol but its back to my regular routine at work today. Hoping to sustain this progress although I predict a spike tomorrow.
8/3: 191.2 still doing well. Did 14,000+ steps yesterday, and stayed within 1500 bmr calorie limit.
8/4: 188.2 weighed my self three times, sat down for a half hour and weighed again, because I just couldn't believe what I was reading. It made me think about before I started these 10 day challenges. Even though I hated what I saw, I never doubted that I was 200+ lbs, but I can't wrap my head around the numbers going down sometimes. I need to think about why and ways to adjust my reactions. I should rejoice in my hard work paying off, not feel nervous about the results.
8/5: 190.2 that's alright. I did 12, 739 steps yesterday, but I ate at odd times and really didn't get a chance to hydrate. Also, got home so late and I'm super tired today but I still have a full day of work ahead of me.
8/6: 191.1 I wasn't home, but I used my sister's scale

Round 11: lowest, 164; highest, 166.8; mean, 165.5 (-2.6 this round). 31/07/2017: 164.2. I'm happy with that. -2.8lbs between highest and lowest in Round 11, and all my stats are reducing.

2/8/2017: 163.4. WOW! No bounce! Internet out today so posting late.

5/8/2017: 164.6. Hm! Cause and effect! Under calories but too much feta (high in sodium) with my ratatouille, and didn't hydrate enough.

7/8/2017: 161.8 I expected a rebound bounce here. Lol! Yesterday's goals met. Following through on my pre-logged food, and staying under goal, not eating after 8pm, and late breakfast seem to be working so far.

SW: 125.5kg
CW: 124.0kg
GW1: 113kg
UGW: ?
Day/Weight/Comment
8/1: 125.5kg - bounced back up to my starting weight, but I'm only day 3 so I can't complain too much. I guess yesterday was a fluke
8/2: 125.0kg
8/3: 125.9kg - no surprises here. Went to my favourite Italian restaurant for dinner last night. Pasta was eaten. No regrets. I've made better choices today so hopefully will see some improvement in the next few days.
8/4: 125.4kg - stayed under my calories yesterday and just had a great workout so hopefully I'll keep moving in this direction.
8/5: 124.2kg - this is probably another fluke rather than true loss but it was a great motivator for me to stay on track for the day! Curious to see what will happen tomorrow.
8/6: 123.2kg - I was asked to work a double shift yesterday so I was pretty stressed out but still managed to stay within my calorie goal and avoid binging when I finally got home even though I was feeling sorry for myself, so that's a massive non-scale victory for me! I checked this weight multiple times and even moved my scale to different areas of the house to see if it was legit. It is. I peed a LOT yesterday so I'm guessing it's all water weight, but it's still nice to see these low numbers
8/7: 124.0kg - I'm not going to worry about the numbers for the next few days; I'm just weighing to be consistent and keep my streak going. I was on third shift last night and will be for the next three nights, so even though I'll be weighing in the morning it's after my "dinner". And I definitely know that I retain fluid when working thirds.

Starting weight: 187.4lb (24th July)
Current weight: 185.8lb (1st August)
Goal weight: 160lb
Goal this round: 184.something
This is my first round :-)
1/8 - 185.8 (A little drop from yesterday, despite some questionable biscuit choices yesterday. Woop! I've also joined the gym again.)
2/8 - 185.2 (Total fluke - I ate terribly yesterday, including ALL of the wine. Oops. I did hit my 12,000 step target though.)
3/8 - 185.6 (No surprise here - yesterday involved a lot of carbs. Today will be better. I plan to drink more water.)
4/8 - 185.2 (Yesterday was better - I smashed my step goal, went to Bodypump, and didn't eat total rubbish. I'm doing my cowboy swagger this morning - muscles! Today I'm hoping to do 14,500 steps)
5/8 - 186.2 (Ate horribly yesterday, and didn't quite hit my step goal, let along 14,500. Feeling a bit ill today after an upset stomach last night. Blargh!)

I'm in again! I'm a teacher, so the busy time has started. Meetings, meetings, meetings this week, and trying to get my classroom set up. Finding a balance between work, home, and exercise is going to be a struggle.
Round 12: 185.4
GW: 184.4
UW: 125
08/01: 185.4 Meetings for an all day Math Summit. I didn't get any exercise in, but I did stay on my diet and water consumption.
08/02: 184.8 Skipped a few meals because I was working hard to get a good start on setting up my classroom. I put in a lot of steps too and stayed on my water consumption. I also made up my calories at dinner.
08/03: 185: I skipped multiple meals yesterday due to working on my classroom again. I have almost all of it done and am excited about that! Just a few more tweaks and paperwork. I almost got all of my steps put in as well.
08/04: 185.6: I stayed within my calories ONLY due to the 4 miles of biking I did and the 2 and something miles of walking. It's the first time I ate well over 1200 calories. I'm a yo-yo this round!
08/05: 185.4: I was on my feet and moving all day yesterday. I reached my goal for steps and then some. I stayed within my calories and ate healthy even though I wasn't home. I also drank a ton of water. So now, I'm back to starting weight. Lol
08/06: 184.8: These numbers look all too familiar this week. I went on a 4.5 mile bike ride yesterday. Stuck to my calories and my water.
08/07: 183.4: This is my lowest number yet and a new one this round. I know I've lost a LOT of water since Friday. I also biked 5 miles. Stayed within my calories and ate well. Drank 48 oz of water.

08/05-- 244.8 ok bad evening yesterday, well too much carbs in general, grrr im playing yo-yo
08/06-- 245.6 OK really bad evening but going out to eat italien food was not a great decision....so 4 more days to get back on track before then end. I still have time to reach my goal

8/3 - 196.6 yup
8/4 - 195.6 drank loads of water went to bed 4 pounds heavier than this and peed it all out, lol, I'm tired now!
8/5 - 196 - 2 glasses of wine and I kept dipping my hand into a bucket of cheeseballs. Alcohol loves salty snacks. Overall a good day and still maintained most of my deficit although I had to weigh the leftover cheeseballs to accurately record their salty deliciousness! Poor little Orange delicacies are now in my snack prison, in the workshop in the tool cupboard, 100 feet away from the house so I have to make a conscious decision to go get em.
8/6 - 196 this is getting to be a habit. Lol

You WILL and CAN do this. Keep pushing yourself! You've got it in the bag!
This is my first official round. Thought I'd join in officially as I keep nearly getting to the UGW I originally set (will set a new goal when I finally get there), then... not. Focusing on 'where will I be in ten days if I put down the biscuits?', inspired by this thread got me back to my 'nearly there' weight of 61.2kg on July 31st.
Let's see if I can actually get there all the way this time.
Original start weight 69-70kg
Current weight on 1st August 61.2
Goal weight for R12 61kg
Longterm goal make 61kg midpoint of my weight range, not the absolute bottom
8/1 61.2kg. Still! Stayed within goal deficit. Did planks and sit-ups.
8/2 62.1kg. Sod off, water retention. Did planks and sit-ups. Kids are with grandparents for a couple of days, so took advantage of peace and quiet to do the yoga video I bought months back. Ate back all exercise calories, up to the tippy top of my MFP deficit, (except for yoga ones, because doing yoga instead of anything else around the house probably reduces my calorie burn for the hour)
8/3 62kg. Kids still away, so went out for my Cto5k walking session before my shower this morning and did my planks and sit ups. The day is off to a great start! Ate back all exercise calories except post-running stretching, but still within deficit.
8/4 61.9kg. Thighs are aching still from running nd my intense stretching session yesterday, so it's reasonable to assume that's still water. Beginning to wonder if I should change the batteries in the scale though, because a pair of jeggings that felt tight last week now feel just the right amount of loose. Surely I didn't stretch them when I decided to wear them anyway? Have done planks and sit-ups. Decided to have a day off dieting to taste-test my own culinary experiments, satisfy gnawing pre-menstrual hunger and to assist muscle recovery before next C25K day. WELL over cals!
8/5 62.4 Fair enough. Did ab exercises. Ate back exercise calories, and a little beyond, but not significantly. Much easier to stay on plan today, after having proper meals the day before.
8/6 62kg Ate back exercise calories, but no further, and even did stuff with cooking chocolate without nibbling it! Did Cto5k session. Really enjoying the Zombies Run app, especially with last night's update. It now tells me how many calories I've burned using the GPS directly, instead of me having to use the MFP database post-session to generate the same figures.
8/7 61.8kg. Finally moving in the right direction!

Round 9 SW: 182.5
Round 10 SW: 181.5
Round 11 SW: 181.0
Round 12 SW: 179.0
I'm really hoping to get to 175.5 or lower. It's a lofty goal but it's back to school night at my older kids school on the 10th, and I haven't seen a lot of those people since the end of May. If I hit 175 it will be a 10lb loss. Wish I had started MFP the end of May instead of last week of June. Oh well.

I'm back for more!!! Finished Round 11 at 143.4 which wa a sudden drop at end. My goal for this round again is to drop 1.5 #'s. I'd like to finish at 141.9 or below. Wishing all good food choices, happy movement and successful drops!
Day/Weight/Comment
8/1 144.6 Up over a pound from yesterday. Had a couple of beers and some pilaf. Below on cals but the rice and beer put me over on carbs. It seems I can't have anything like rice, potato, processed foods and lose. I haven't lost anything in the last 2 weeks. whine, whine, whine.......
8/2 144.8 Still going wrong direction. Went to gym yesterday followed by aqua aerobics class. I had a beer and hot dog and that's what's what. Lemon water today.
8/3 145.6 Up over 2#. Too many carbs for moi. Back to veggies and protein. Lemon water. The basics for me. I've been in this 143-145 range for almost a month. Something's gotta give. Off to gym today.
8/4 144.4 Stayed within macros, etc, yesterday and got to gym. Off to Aqua class today hopefully.
8/5 145.4 Sigh. Could be water weight. Going for drive up to Erie, a challenge to eat right. Spent a wonderful hour in aqua arthritis. It's so much fun and an hour later it hits me and I'm tired. At least I know it's doing something. Happy Saturday everyone.
8/6 144.6 Surprising since I ate sushi for lunch and a 5 guys little burger for dinner. Wayyyyy over on carbs. I guess fresh air and walking on beach helped. Only 4 days left and I'm still yoyo-ing the same few pounds this round again. Out for lunch today. A salad sounds good. Happy Sunday to all. If you're where weather is nice, get out and enjoy.
8/7 145.6 Ate lunch out, salad and chicken, had 2 adult beverages. No regrets. Ate healthy, enjoyed the drinks, spent time with a friend. Lovely day. New week, new effort. Mwuah!

Day/Weight/Comment
8/1: 200.8 – recovering from girls weekend nicely
8/2: 199.8 – Staying within by calorie budget, walking. I had 1 mini cupcake yesterday and it was fantastic. With tracking and logging you can have your cake and eat it too! Just not the whole cake.
8/3: 198.8 – so pumped! Yay me!
8/4: 198 – Happy, but feel tired and hungry. And again annoyed that progress is so slow. I know this is the right way to do it. But dang. My goal for tomorrow was 195. I got pretty close. I had a girls weekend in there that set me back a bit, so I’m pretty content with this result. Tomorrow is a wedding and I can’t wait to eat the delicious food and drink the delicious drink. I’ve been attempting to make healthier meals and they just aren’t very satisfying. But I’ll keep figuring it out.
8/5: 197.2 – This makes me happy! I was getting a little tired of it all yesterday. Ate Arby’s for lunch and Red Baron for dinner. Went for an hour long walk, stayed within my cals. Felt satiated.
8/6: 196.6 – Happy to be making progress consistently. I want to get into the 180’s so friggin bad. It’s been a long time!
8/7: 196.4 – Lazy day yesterday. Stayed as close as I could to calorie goals. Didn’t do too bad.

Day / Weight / Comments
8/1 - 195.5 I hot a new low the other day and then I went up and now I am working it back down again. My weight log is full of relatively big up-down-up-down swings so this is part of the pattern. I LIKE the down part of the pattern.
8/2 - 195.8
8/3 - 195.5 Had bad lunch yesterday. Literally. The meal had been buried in the freezer and was not successfully microwaved back to sustenance. I ended up eating a Big Mac and fries and I don't regret a minute of it. Healthy dinner, lots of water, day one week 5 c25k, 200 stairs up, and we stay on track.
8/4 - 195.3 Ate calories + some exercise calories. I'm not a low carber, but I really went overboard on white bread. It was a frustrating day and bread and butter is a comfort food. (DD got in a fender bender.) Got a good walk in; it was a dancing walk as I needed another 30 minutes of dancing for a challenge. Definitely done after dark - do not want to scare small children. Got my third 200 steps count needed for another challenge. Need more sleep.
8/5 - 194.7 My effort seems to be paying off this round. I need to keep it going thru the weekend. Last night C25K W5 D2. Need more vegetables, but not eating badly.
8/6 - 194.7 Donated a pint of blood. Good way to start the weekend. DH and I were out back-to-school shopping for him; it is worse than letting a toddler pick his own outfit.
"I think the pockets stick out. "
"The waist gathers when I put my belt tight"(er then I ever do in real life.)
"My butt doesn't look right."
"I don't like the way the back of the left leg hits my shoe."
By 4:30 we had managed to find four pairs of pants and I was starving. Olive Garden is running a buy a dinner take a dinner home special so we stopped for some food. Ate lots, but not to excess. I only ate half my pasta and had lots of salad. Added it all up when I went home; It was do-able. Of course there was no late dinner after that.
8/7 - 194.9 just got to keep it in the 194s
