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
8/8 - 194.7 No exercise day - at work late late late.
8/9 - 193.6
Came home, had late storms forming. Managed to make a C25K date after the sun went down but before the rain started. Ate under my net calories goal. I have to watch that - I do not want to lose quickly! My skin is too old for that. 
Ready for round 13!
8/109 -
Starting weight: 211 lbs on 10/23
End of Round 11: 162.2
8/1: 162.6 - I'm tired of being in the 160's. Weight seems to be moving so slow lately. I'm over it.
8/2: 162.2
8/3: 162.4
8/4: 162.6
8/5: 162.2 - I am so ready to drop below this number. It seems my weight is just fluctuating within the same .4 lbs.
8/6: 161.8
8/7: 161.4
8/8: 161.8
8/9: 162.2 - It is incredibly hard to keep going when I keep seeing the same numbers on my scale and I know I have been under calories and sodium. I know I have to push on, but I hope I get far away from these numbers soon because I'm sick of it.

everher - hang in there!! I know how frustrating it can be when you are doing everything right and it doesn't reflect on the scale. It. Will. Happen.3

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.
Goal weight: 175.5
Ultimate goal weight: 128
8/1 179.5

@everher
One thing I learned by going to Weight Watchers many years ago was that you need to eat enough. One lady was miffed because she consistently ate below her points and didn't lose. Finally she started to eat all of her points and the weight dropped off.5 -
Thank y'all @quiltingjaine @cyranda63 @wannabesmaller2017 for the support. I know the weight will come off eventually, but man, it's frustrating.
I'm 12 lbs or so away from normal BMI now so I know things are going to be a little bit more difficult.9 -
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 way
7/8 205.6 - need to really focus on these last few days
8/8 205 - went swimming yesterday ..now to keep the exercise and water intake up
9/8 204.2 being mindful of my eating habits and upping my exercise regime - looks like it's starting to work ( I hope) 10 -

8/2 - 168.2 .... Yay!! If I can hold under 169.9 I'll be very happy.
8/3 - 166.6 Well that's not too bad, but it's only Thursday!!
8/4 - 167.6 **
8/5 - 168.7 **
8/6 - 166.3 ** These are weigh-ins on different scales at different times in the day
8/7 - 164.4 Not my usual time but by this it looks like I faired well at the music festival.. It was so hot and the dancing burn off a few cals too and over steps in the 1000's. Let's see what happens these next few days. Tomorrow will be my first normal day ... haha 'normal'
8/8 - 164.6 This looks good, still not back to a good routine. Need to go to the store so I can bring my lunch to work.
8/9 - 166.1 I'm pretty happy with sticking around the 160's. SO leaves for work on Friday and I can probably drop a few once he is away. Continue on.

SW: 187.2 (85.2kg)
8/1 - 187.2 (85.2kg) - Finishing that Ben and Jerry's on top of a big dinner was rather unnecessary
8/2 - 83.7 kg - Whoop, whoop so excited, a day of good eating and exercise
8/3 - 83.9 kg - Happy with that. Didn't expect a further drop from yesterday. Onwards and upwards, well downwards
8/4 - 83.7 kg - Yay.
8/5 - 83.9 kg - Ah well, was well over my calorie goal.
8/6 - 83.8 kg - Realistically: This is great. Had a real drop of weight at the beginning and it's still gone. Had a great Saturday without randomly snacking. Soo wohooooo! Emotionally: Grrrhmmmpfffffff!!
8/7 - 84.8 kg -
8/8 - 84.5 kg -
8/9 - 85.2 kg - just great! Back to where I started, just so annoyed with myself. Yes some will be just eating late etc but still. Really struggled to motivate myself. Hopefully I can finish on a high tomorrow

End of Round 11: 162.2
8/1: 162.6 - I'm tired of being in the 160's. Weight seems to be moving so slow lately. I'm over it.
8/2: 162.2
8/3: 162.4
8/4: 162.6
8/5: 162.2 - I am so ready to drop below this number. It seems my weight is just fluctuating within the same .4 lbs.
8/6: 161.8
8/7: 161.4
8/8: 161.8
8/9: 162.2 - It is incredibly hard to keep going when I keep seeing the same numbers on my scale and I know I have been under calories and sodium. I know I have to push on, but I hope I get far away from these numbers soon because I'm sick of it.
8/10
You can absolutely do this. Our weight fluctuations. Sometimes, it plateaus. We just have to keep moving forward even when that happens, and the weight will come off.4 -
Hi All! I'm in yet again! 10 day chunks is perfect and I've been weighing daily since March...things bounce around a bit but it easy do see an overall downward trend when I have lots of data.
SW in March - 182.4
GW -150-I want to get here and then maintain for a bit while I reassess where I want to be weight vs fitness wise
I was down to 152.5 last round and then had some water gains with a splurge day and expecting TOM so finished at 155.5. I'm at my Parents place in cottage country for the majority of this round and don't have complete control over the menu. I just want to maintain as best as possible and hopefully finish around 153.
8/1 155.1 - feeling pretty water puffy again. Waiting for TOM but ate really well yesterday.
8/2 154.4 - 17000+ steps yesterday including a run with the dog AND I went roller skating with the boys which I would never have done 28 lbs ago!!!
8/3 154.0 - slowly chipping away at my water bloat from the weekend...very slowly since my calorie deficit hasn't been extreme with being at my parent's place and a few cocktails on the dock with my cousin.
8/4 156.4 - Pizza with ham and salty feta for dinner last night...and TOM finally arrived (peri-menopause messin with my cycle again)...my rings are tight, I feel super bloated.
8/5 -157.5-had a hungry day yesterday and the TOM cravings didn't help
8/6 -157.5 - need to start turning this back around. Vacay is over tomorrow and I will take back control over my meal planning
8/7 - 158.3 - My train has officially de-railed LOL. I'm pretty sure only about 2 lbs of what I'm up this week are actual weight gain and the rest is retention from TOM, too much wine/cocktails, salty/carby food choices and not enough water while on vacation (although some of that also lead to the gains). Heading home to my own scale and kitchen this afternoon and will be leaving the kids at my parent's while I work a heavy freelance week. I'm going to stop at the grocery store on my way and pick up everything I need to get back on the tracks, heading in the right direction...there's no reason other than my brain ignoring my plan to not reach my goal weight by mid September.
8/8 157.2 -Back on my scale this morning, had a great food day yesterday and meal prepped for my week at home by myself. Pre-logged all my food for today so I don't go off and eat whatever like I did while I was at my parent's place last week. I think I'm going to have to be a lifetime calorie tracker to be able to maintain once I get to where I want to be.
8/9 155.6 - still shedding some bloat...I expect maybe a bit more until I hit the real fat gains I slapped on last week.
8/105 -
8/1 174 Went run/walking with my dog this morning. I used to run a lot more but am currently recovering from a bad case of plantar fasciitis. I am doing the couch to 10K app and I am on week 4. Small victories!
8/2 174.8
8/3 174.8 First day of TOM today. I could feel it!
8/4 175.9 Wowza. Pretty sure the number is supposed to go down.
Did have a heavy lunch yesterday, a stressful evening, and am retaining water like crazy. Today I am focusing on water, water, water.
8/5 175.9 I dreaded the scale this morning as I did a lot of grazing yesterday and drank wine at night (a couple of glasses). So I am glad it did not creep up again! I really want to see the scale go down in this second half. Went to the Y this morning and ran on the treadmill. Think I will start tracking again on MFP.
8/6 174.3 Yesterday was very productive. Spent most of the day cleaning out our shed, so was distracted. Drank lots of water, did not partake in alcohol, and tracked my food. First OP day I have had in a while. One day at a time.
8/7 172.3 Way less bloated today. Drank a ton of water yesterday and stayed in my calories. Again, tracked. Tracking (and the fact that I am weighing in every day) gave me some incentive yesterday. I ran on the treadmill for 30 mins. and did some stretching, too. More stretching tonight and a break from running.
8/8 172 Tracked again yesterday. Went over my calorie goal a bit, but did go and take the dog for a walk last night to up my steps. Did stretching last night and it was a good hurt... I am so inflexible! Not enough water (and too much wine) and night eating are my two biggest challenges. Just focusing on those things for three days has made a difference.
8/9 171.1 Survived an afternoon lunch meeting and stuck to veggies, meat, and one roll. No dessert.

8/1 - 130.8 I have worked out since Friday, every day (after my 2 week mandatory time out). Today is my rest day. And I have been mindful about eating. I love seeing these #s on the scale. My goal is within reach!
8/2 - 130.2 woohoo!!! Ran 4 miles in the hot Florida sun this morning.
8/3 - 130 things are looking good
8/4 - 129.8 it's becoming a reality. And it is worth every effort that I am putting forward. My Goal is near!
8/5 - 131.4 too much grazing and didn't log. Self sabotage! Today back on track. No scale tomorrow because I'm on the road!
8/6 - no scale! Trying to be mindful. Will have a different scale for the next month or so, beginning tomorrow. Looking for good things to happen while I am in the mountains and away from the heat in Florida.
8/7 -132.5 not what I want to see. But a different house with a different scale. And this will be me for the next month. So I will go with the flow and hope to push the numbers down on this scale too! Hopefully, now that I am settled in with no traveling in site, I can get back to a normal routine of mindful eating and working out. Happy Monday!
8/8 - 131.8 creeping down. Hopefully, will continue to go in that direction. Ran 4.5 miles yesterday. Plan on going to the gym later this morning. And always try to practice mindful eating.
8/9 - weighed myself after I ate. Tomorrow is another day. Hopefully it will be a good final day to weigh.

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.

Surprised to see this as I had a few glasses of bubbly last night and didn't drink extra water to compensate.

8/10 147.25 -
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.
08/08: 182.8: I didn't get to exercise because I worked a 13 hour day. It was back to school night. However, I did get my goal for steps put in. I ate lighter because I was working, but I ate healthy and every 3 hours to keep my metabolism up. I walked away from offers of pizza, cookies, and candy from the principal.I drank 48 oz of water too.
08/09: 182.6 Meetings and more meetings all day long yesterday. Stayed within my calories. Put in my steps by making multiple trips up the stairs. I walked away from cookies, candy, and tons of breads again for our staff luncheon yesterday by packing my own healthy lunch. I drank 48 oz of water again, which I can do without any issues now. Anything more than that, I overhydrate and get really sick since I do have some milk during the day too.
08/10: 182.6 ✔My goal for this week was to lose one pound, instead I lost 2.8 lbs. I'LL TAKE IT! I biked 5.5 miles yesterday, stayed within my calories, and drank 48 oz of water.

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.
8/8: 195.6 – Didn’t bring a lunch to work yesterday and was too lazy to go pick something up, almost died. Not making that mistake again. But hey .6 pounds to my short term goal.
8/9 – 196 – up a little. I don’t think I’ve done anything drastically different, so chalking it up to just a normal fluctuation.
8/10 – 195.6 – Yay, back down! -5.2 pounds down this round!
