Day/Weight/Comment

8/11 144 READY, SET, GO! Nice drop. Went to gym yesterday. Good workout. Didn't get much sleep last night and got woken by 2.5 yr old grandson. Wish I had his energy first thing in morning. Ellip today and perhaps some stretching. Happy Friday!
8/12 143.8 Love it. I'm in the 3's again. Too tired to exercise yesterday. Played with grandson most of day. Probably go to gym today. I'll need to get some exercise in as going to a friend's for dinner and that means a couple glasses of wine. Thank goodness she is also losing weight and eating healthy/clean/low cal, etc. I want to see some steady weight loss this round. I'm due, I tell ya! Happy Saturday!
8/13 143 I don't think this is a whoosh but food poisoning last night and the attendant vacating of the stomach. What a way to stay under calories. Blahhhhh.
8/14 143 Happy to see it stay the same. Ate well yesterday, stuck to protein and veggies and champagne grapes. Yum. no exercise. Just recovering from being ill. Ellip today and hopefully gym. It's Monday, start of a new week. Go for it!
8/15 143 Yes! 30 min ellip yesterday as well as a great session at gym. Lowered bar on Smith machine to keep moving forward fitness wise. Ate too many carbs at dinner though. Tortillas and refried beans. Looking for an hour on elip and a drop tomorrow. Almost no sleep though so we'll see. Feel good and love that my capris from last summer literally fall off me. n Persist!

8/16 143.6 Understandable. No sleep night before last and watched toddler all day so ate more than usual for energy - which I think is a fallacy anyway. Some lemon water and exercise and I should be back down. I need to buckle down to reach 142.4 this round.

SW: 249 (March 2017); CW: 232.4 (although my official weigh in on Monday was 231.8); GW: no idea yet but for this round I'd say 230.

Day/Weight/Comment
8/11 - 232.4 - up a little from my Monday weigh in but hoping to see that come back down by Monday
8/12 -232.6 - up just a touch, but took mom out to dinner last night so probably a bit of a sodium bomb; starting a 5k training program this morning and pushing water
8/13 - 232.4 - forgot to post this yesterday. Moving back down.
8/14 - 232.0 - moving in the right direction! This week I need to focus on my water intake. I've also started some running training intervals, so that may be causing me to retain a little water as its more intense than my usual walking. Hoping water and having a better week calorie-wise (I was over two days last week) will get me back where I want to be.
8/15 - 231.2 - under what my official weigh-in was last week! With careful eating and a little luck I might make it to my goal for this round.
8/16 - 231.8 - hovering up and down in this small range - hoping for a woosh soon

Goal for round 13 is to hit 199lbs.

Day/Weight/Comment
8/11 200.8 lbs Went to the gym yesterday at 5am (UGH) but it seemed to help. See if I can keep up with that one.
8/12 200.4
8/13 200.0 ALMOST out of the 200's. So so close.
8/14 201.0 Really really disappointed. Hit the gym yesterday for an hour and a half and a four mile walk last night. Was within my calorie intake too. Sodium intake was a little high so I am going to try and keep that down, but come on! Going to keep at it but so frustrating.
8/15 200.8 Did good all day with the food until dinner. A rare night alone with hubby meant take out. Hopefully more of a drop tomorrow. Vaca is coming up and Im really worried about going back to my starting point.
8/16 199.8 Almost tears of joy FINALLY getting back under 200. Really want to finish this round at 199.0 But vaca is calling me. I'll try to be good with the food but....

Good start, although the last time I got to this weight it was also a Friday and I screwed it up with the weekend. We will see what I can do. Yesterday I went over my calorie count but I was able to get up and do some walking which was a good start post cryosurgery (it was almost the entire bottom of both of my feet lol, so I'm surprised it hasn't gotten infected and that I'm able to do this much walking).
8/12: 130.6
No late night snacking yesterday, so I'm sure that helped. I've been making smarter choices and eating less. I don't have as many snacks laying around the house other than fruit and nuts. Great start to the weekend. Hopefully I can continue the downward trend. This was my second goal weight, but I decided to lower it another 5 lbs. I am just so amazed at what I have accomplished. I never thought I would get below 145.
8/13: 131.8
Ate more than planned yesterday. Usually happens with my niece in the house. We cook together and what not. Plus I didn't drink very much water.
8/14: 132
Guess I'm still suffering from two days ago. I ate well at yesterday and came in under cal count.
8/15: 132
At least it's not going up? Yesterday was the first day back to school and although I am only there 3 days/wk I always default to snack machines, which is not good. Yesterday was day one with no snack machines!
8/16: 131.2
Yesterday I thought about going to the snack machine. But I didn't! I usually bring lunch with me but sometimes that thing just calls me. Anyway, I guess this is my reward!!

8/11 190 - Ugh! I'm retaining a ton of water and just feel heavy. This happened at the same time last month so I'm thinking it's from ovulation and not drinking enough water. I'm hoping for a big whoosh soon!! Today's goal is to eat more veggies and drink a gallon of water!
8/12 187.6 - Now THAT'S more like it!
8/13 188.6 - I knew that would happen. We had my MIL's bday party last night and I ate CAKE and lots of other delicious food. The one pound gain is water so I'm not concerned. NSV is that I worked out yesterday! I walked 20 flights of stairs(just up and down our stairs) and man that was tough but I did it!
8/14 187.6
8/15 187 - woohoo!! I met my goal 5 days early! I really need to add exercise into the mix though.
8/16 187.2 I took my son and went on a 45 minute hike yesterday, climbing hills, stairs, etc. It was so fun and I burned 300ish calories so that's even better!

Why are you eating so little? Your body may be holding on to what it has because of that. Less than 1,000 calories a day is not healthy. Just something to think about.

@Slimpossible007 16/8 - 200.2 - NOT the number I wanted to stick at - how absolutely disheartening is this!!! went back to bed this morning in the hopes of waking up to a different number .. but NOPE the scales are hating me right now TRUST IN THE PROCESS - calories are fine but getting water down me is impossible, I can't stand the taste at the best of times, let alone when I am feeling ill.

Double check and weigh your food.. just incase. As for the water, I bought a soda stream, I love the way the bubbly water dances in my mouth, it has increased my water consumption exponentially! Don't get disheartened all things will come to pass.
Also, move your scale to a bare level floor. Some thoughts.. I'm with you girl!

@jungleswimmer Being under 1000 calories a day is not a good idea not withstanding an hour of exercise daily. Your body needs a minimum base calories of 1200 to maintain it's function and not burn muscle mass. Remember, your heart is a muscle. Other exciting things like losing your hair, headaches and fainting can occur. This is not conducive to healthy weight loss.

8/11 - Out of town with no scale and out of my exercise and food routine. Went over calories yesterday and very little movement due to seminar. One more day of this then back to my element so hopeful I can still meet goal for this round.
8/12 - 164.2 - *sigh* trying not to be too hard on myself for a less than a lb gain...no scale or exercise the last couple of days and more hungry than usual for some reason, although I did make good choices. Weekends are tough too food wise, so making a conscious commitment to lots of exercise and water and staying under calories these next two days.
8/13 - 163.8 - getting closer to where I started the round with a long workout, extra water and staying a tad bit under calories.
8/14 - 163.6 - everything on point yesterday. No time for exercise today so need to be extra conscious of eating.
8/15 - 163.6 - holding steady
8/16 - 163.2 - Hanging out around 163/164. Have time for an extra long workout today so maybe I'll break into 162.something soon.

Goal weight for R13 130 (readjusted)

Ultimate goal weight 128



8/11 130.4 I was SHOCKED to see that number this morning.. I moved the scale & weighed myself 3 times just to make sure! This week I took a break from daily weighing, still got exercise in most days and was under calories. My last known weight (on Monday) was 133.2. I’ve been dealing with a summer cold, so have felt kind of blah, but am finally feeling better and hoping that number wasn’t a fluke and can continue on the downward path. I’m sooo close to my ultimate goal weight!

8/12 130.8 Small gain, lots of cheese last night, so I expected it.

8/13 132.2 Yikes!! Kind of let it go yesterday and just had a free for all day.. time to real it back in!

8/14 no weigh in

8/15 no weigh in

8/16 132.0 Small loss, as I’m nearing my ultimate goal I’m definitely noticing it getting harder to lose and to stay motivated to be good (eating).. I have the mind set of “oh it’s only a few more pounds to go, I’m happy here…” but I’m going to keep trying and stay as motivated as possible.

8/11 - 132.9 I have been struggling a bit with my mindful eating. Hopefully today will be the start of a great round and I can get back to where I was. My plan is to leave NC at the end of the month at 130# at the most!!!
8/12 - 132.6 headed back in the right direction. Lots of exercise today. But couldn't resist the hot dog and tater tots at hot dog world in Hendersonville, NC
8/13 - 132.1 moving along nicely. Got my 5 mile run in this morning. Have a great Sunday everyone!
8/14 - 131.7 nice long walk in the mountains with the dogs and then to the gym for a good workout. Always mindful eating! Progress (round 2 to get below 130#)
8/15 - 131.1 finally back below where I was after Round 11. Staying very motivated!!!
8/16 - 132.5 that was short lived. Boo! I did not have mindful eating yesterday. Going to the gym now. Let's see what today's efforts will bring tomorrow. Must finish this round strong!
