Day/Weight/Comment
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!
8/17 187.4 Not bad considering I had a bacon,egg, and cheese biscuit from McDonald's yesterday and didn't drink nearly as much water as I normally do.

I had a big loss last round so not expecting much of a loss for this round, but we will see. My goals for this round are to make sure I stay hydrated and, since there are two weekends in this round, to work on being more mindful of my eating on the weekends.

8/11--227.0 Holding steady.
8/12--227.0 Still holding, but my trend weight is going downwards. Need to make sure I keep up with my water today.
8/13--228.1 Went out to eat yesterday, so the increase is probably due to the additional salt. I'm very happy that I still stayed within my calories and I drank more water than what I usually drink on the weekend. I'll continue to keep up with the water today.
8/14--228.1 Holding steady. Still feeing a little bloated today. The weekend was a success as I kept up my hydration levels and I ate more sensibly than normal, so I'll just wait for the scale to follow.
8/15--227.9 Still eating at my calorie level. Still feeling bloated. Had a great weightlifting session yesterday.
8/16--227.7 Slowly getting back to my starting weight for this round. Still staying hydrated.
8/17--227.9 Sore from my weightlifting.

@nikki062181 - You can have a big, fat, juicy cheeseburger!! Just fit it into your calories or work out extra that day. Depriving yourself is a recipe for failure. At least it is for me. Eat like this is a permanent lifestyle. One 'splurge' here and there won't hurt you. ;-)

I tried eating ground Chuck twice here over the last few weeks, and I actually became physically ill.

@farmhouse140 I've been bouncing too. Hang in there! Track and stick to your plan. You've got this!

@nikki062181 be aware that if you cut your calories back too far your body will put itself in starvation mode. We had a lady in my Weight Watchers group who wasn't eating all of her points and wasn't losing. When we finally convinced her to eat them, she lost.

Jaine

Thanks.. I am logging my foods as we speak. A huge congrats to you on your newest lower number!!!

Oh, I'm not even getting the warning from MFP. I usually eat about 1200 or 1300 calories. That's with 3 meals and two snacks a day.

8/11: 167.6 Lowest in two or three years!
8/12:  168.0  Normal bump.  Pizza night last night.  Still lower than last year!

8/14:  168.0  There it is =D.  Normal, expected bump from exercise.  Been out of the 170's for 10 days.  Woohoo!
8/15:  168.4  Oh scale, oh scale, why do ye forsake me?  Hehehe.

1st round for me! Currently doing 5:2

R13 SW - 71.2kg (157 lbs)
R13 GW - 70kg something (154.3 - 156.3)

8/11 - 71.2kg (157)
8/12 - 73kg (160.9) - out for dinner last night and had pizza calzone so expected that
8/13 - 73.2kg (161.4) - no, all is good, another huge dinner and dessert out. On my 500 cal days now so will expect this number to go back down. Not stressing just yet
8/14 - 72.2kg (159.2) - on my last 500 calorie day for the week so hoping this comes down a lot more tomorrow
8/15 - 70.9kg (156.3) - woohoo! Onto normal calories for the remainder of the week now so hoping this number continues down. Going to try to eat at normal deficit to still account for the big meals out and wine on the weekend
8/16 - 70.7kg (155.9) - surprised after the wine and late night munchies. This will go up no doubt
8/17 - 71.1kg (156.8) - sigh....I can’t see this going down before Sunday morning. Not when the last 2 days are my biggest calorie days of the week
8/18 - 71.4kg (157.4) - I’m ok with this as I ate at maintenance rather than deficit. I’m resolved to the notion that there will be no recorded loss at the end of the 10 days purely because the challenge finishes on a high calorie day for me before my two days of low cals start. That’s ok because I’m still surprised this number isn’t higher as it has been other weeks

SW, 212 (highest recorded weight) I've no idea what my highest weight was!

R12, (my R4) SW 199.4

my start weight for this round is a new fluke (i think) low, SO I don't expect to get any lower this round

goal for R13 to make being under under 196lbs permanent

UGW 140

10/8- 195.4 - <<< yay!!! .... muscles screaming in agony This is a new low

11/8 - 196.8 - I expected this ^^^ that was a big drop ^^^ possible dehydrated -- THIS is still a drop from the day before! sore muscles, cals are low by average, Rest day drank my 2L water
12/8 - 198.8 - strained a muscle, in my shoulder and calf, so I am assuming this is water retention just NO HIGHER
13/8 - 198 - muscles feeling a bit better, calf completely pain free today, shoulder still niggling 25 miles NO water
14/8 - 200.2 - WTH - I know its not "real" but *sigh* ---- Rest - feeling ill and bloated NO water
15/8 - 200.2 - still ill bloated and no water,
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. DRANK 2L WATER
17/8 - 198.8 - still a little ill but much better, choked down my water yesterday so I don't know if the number on the scale is a reflection of that or if its a reflection of feeling a bit better today, or if indeed drinking the water is why I feel a little better. the mysteries of the body!!! DRANK 2L WATER
18/8 - 198.4 - Actually I'm happy with this as I am down from the last round now, and I know that round was a really big drop, although I wouldn't say no to another 1lb in the right direction

nikki062181

I'm in again. I am so, so very happy to start round 13 too! I did it peeps. As of this morning, I have hit my 20lb mark! I've lost all the weight my doctor told me to lose. However, I know it's still not my ideal weight by any means, so I'm going to keep pushing on.

CW: 182 lbs
GW: 180 lbs
UGW: 125 lbs

08/11: 182...Woo hoo!!!! I'm doing a happy dance!

08/12: 180.8...completely shocked by this #. It's such a big drop all at once, so I'm expecting it will more than likely go up tomorrow. I put in a lot of steps between housework and grocery shopping.

08/13: 180.4 lbs...still shocked over seeing this number, and it is working on creeping down still. I biked 6 miles yesterday. If I get in the 170s at all, this will be the first time since 2004 that I've seen it. After the birth of my first child, 3 years of depo were not good for me. So, I packed on 80 lbs. Idk what I'll do WHEN I see that number again.

8/14: 180.2 lbs...remaining steady now that I had the big WHOOSH. I had a harder time getting 48 oz. of water in yesterday. I didn't "exercise," but I did imo. I rearranged furniture in two rooms, and I swept my car and cleaned out the interior. I have 5 kids that ride in it, so that was a major undertaking.

8/15: 181 lbs...I was expecting a gain to happen, and it did. In a way, I am bummed because I really want to see that #7. In a way, I'm not because I was anticipating it, and it's still close. I stayed within my calories, drank 48 oz of water, and had a 10-hour work day. I did end up having to eat around 7:30 because of that, and I'm not supposed to eat after 6. I think that could have contributed. On to tomorrow...

8/16: 181.2 lbs...Okay, I'm going to be honest here...that sudden weight loss was unexpected, but I am starting to get bummed by the fact that it's still creeping up. I decreased my calories a bit to get the # back down the last few days, and it hasn't worked. I refuse to go any lower than I have. Maybe soon it'll start creeping down again.
I almost reached my goal for steps yesterday too. Water was once again a struggle for me. I need to step it up.

8/17: 181 lbs...Has anyone ever felt like that they've just run out of energy? They are tired of tracking calories and making all these healthy recipes and just want a big, fat, juicy cheeseburger? I am so there right now. However, I keep eating healthy and ensuring that I get up and move. I am proving to myself that my will power is stronger than I ever knew.

8/18: 179.6...a new low for me. I haven't seen a 7 in too many years.

8/17 - 232 still good. Let's see what the next 3 days can bring.
8/18 - 232 I switched to Centrum silver which has iron compared to wellwoman 50+ which doesn't. Haven't been able to go (lifelong issues there). May have to switch back if this continues because daily I consume 25-35g fibre and roughly 13-15 cups of water so that isn't the issue. 2lbs in 2 days...
