8/12- N/A
8/13- 160.8 I have not weighed myself in forever and this is better then expected. I am going to lose 25 pounds.
8/14- 161.4 Not sure why I'm up. Wouldn't have changed anything I did yesterday so I'll have to take it.
8/15- 161.0 This should not be so. Anniversary dinner and movie popcorn not conducive to weight loss. Not sure what my body is up to.
8/16- 161.4 No big surprise here. My sugar intake is out of control... again. I am no longer hiding from it, though, as I have been the last few months. Getting on the scale is a reminder of what it is doing to my body.
8/17- 160.4 Good day yesterday. Feel like it's going to continue on today
8/18- 159.2 Ciao 160s

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!!
8/17: forgot to weigh in
8/18: 131.4
Walked a 5K for epilepsy today and yesterday I ate pretty good minus the dessert.

Back on track. Happy with this round's loss (3.4 lbs.). Date night is tonight, need to get some exercise today and keep the wine reasonable so that the scale is true tomorrow - last day of the round! I like the 10 days rather than a week. More time for the ups a downs. Happy Saturday!

8/13:208.6 -- under calories (first time in ages on a Saturday), worked out.
8/14: 207.6 -- just 50 calories over yesterday, had a fantastic weekend food-wise. Worked out.
8/15: 207 -- under calories, worked out yesterday.

Round 12/5: HW 264.8 LW 261.2 MidW = 263.0
8/11 263.2 -- "Retrieved" two pounds from a day off logging and a trip to Little Pigs barbecue buffet. Back to the new normal today. May slide up a bit more tomorrow because of water but I know what to do. CICO!!
8/12 262.6 -- Getting rid of the two pounds from the trip to the barbecue. Logged and stayed under calories yesterday like it is the new normal! It is ... the new normal, that is.
8/13 261.6 -- Almost back to the LW of round 12. It's onward!
8/14 262.0 -- Made the mistake of getting on the scale in my nightie. Now it won't recognize that I weigh less in the buff. Damned scale decides that it's going to tell me I weigh that day and once it decides on a number, it won't change it. Obstinate little thing! Oh, well, I know I ate right and the number is not what's important -- at least that's what I'm telling myself. Harrumph!
8/15 261.4 -- The scale went down but I fell into an old pattern last night that had me eating several hundred calories "post diary." Staying up late to binge-watch costume dramas goes with snacking. I need to watch such girly stuff during the day when I'm more in control of my eating. (Early evening is more "gender neutral" in our living room. LOL)
8/16 261.0 -- Discovered what had made it so hard to stay within calories for the last couple days. I had been playing with the macros and something I did had dropped my daily limit by about 150 calories! No wonder I had that attack of the night munchies. Anyway, all recovered. I actually ate low yesterday because I skipped (slept through?) breakfast and wasn't hungry for it due to the previous night. Back to normal today!
8/17 260.6 -- Another new low! Yay! CICO!!
8/18 261.2 -- Why is it that no understanding of the reality that weight bounces up and down prepares you for this? I must fight the urge to blame myself for some undefined failure I didn’t commit. Damned scale.

8/19 263.2 -- Up two pounds overnight. Chinese take-out strikes again! Lots of sodium!! And once I got started, I kept at it with some “post-diary” snacking. Ugh. Back to healthy normal today!!

End R12 (my first round): 171.4

I'd like to lose 2 more pounds this round.

8/11: 171.4 Yesterday was a food day. A "gourmet" doughnut and latte for breakfast and a company picnic (did pretty well; kept it light). Had a good step day: 16,000!
8/12: 171.4 Holding steady. Boy, I really wanted wine last night. And dessert. Lots of it. It seems to be my Friday tradition. By 5pm, though, I had only drank about 16 oz. of water, so had some catching up to do. I stuck with water. On a Friday night. Steps were also low (busy day at work yesterday) so spent the evening walking the dog and did some elliptical.
8/13: 170.5 Active day yesterday cleaning up, running errands and getting to the Y to run on the treadmill again. Have found a replacement for alcohol right now: the little cans of flavored Perrier. Throw in some ice and lime and they are refreshing!
8/14: 170.5 Day off from work today. Kids go back to school tomorrow. Back into the routine!
8/15: 170.5 For those of you that hold on and then a bunch comes off at once? I am with you! I did have a few small glasses of wine last night at a potluck dinner and tried to eat a lot of salad (hard to do at potlucks...) Took a walk with the dog and did the elliptical. Want to keep reaching 10,000 steps this week.
8/16: 169.4 Yes! Getting in the zone now. I say "getting" because the temptations and there and they are real and I literally have to do this one day at a time. I think that's why I am liking this weigh every day thing. Keeps me on my game.
8/17: 169.9 Went over in calories yesterday. Still got some exercise in, but was busy at work and didn't quite get all my water in and didn't hit my step goal. Today is a new day. Lunch is packed and tonight I bump up to 15 minutes of running in my C210K app.
8/18: 169.9 Had a good OP day yesterday, and managed to finish my 15 minute stretch of running the first time! I am stressed today. Lots of work stuff. TGIF.
8/19: 169 The evening workouts are helping me with my night eating this week. Only problem is I can't quite get to sleep at a decent time because I am wired from the workout. Very tired this morning. Getting ready for a business trip today, so lots to do.

SW 3/9/17: 256 lbs
UGW: 140 lbs
R13 GW: 217

8/11: 219 - I weighed a little less yesterday but not much. I was under my calories, rode my stationary bike, and took a walk so I'm guessing just water. I have to remember to drink more. I have been craving doughnuts all morning because I've been watching Twin Peaks.

8/12: 217.8 - This was surprising as I didn't work out and I overate because I had to have some Arby's and a shake! I was smart though, no mayo and removed a slice of bread and split the small shake so it wasn't too awful. Had blueberry french toast this morning and feel no guilt.

8/13: 219.6 - This was expected as I over ate and then had a free double chocolate muffin from my sister's work. I'm hoping for a better day today. Weekends are hard but I'll make it through. I hope everyone else is doing better than me.

8/14: 221 - Did squats yesterday and I'm sore and also retaining water. I hope the scale moves in the right direction tomorrow.

8/15: 220.6 - Better than yesterday I guess. I had spaghetti and a Dove Ice cream bar for dinner and it was delicious. Got my 30 minutes of exercise in but my son is teething really bad so looks like I get to deal with a clingy 1 year old all day.

8/16: 220 - This water retention is killing me! I guess it could be worse, but it's still disheartening. I just need to keep it up and wait for the inevitable whoosh! It's always exciting to see all your hard work pay off in a matter of days lol! Good luck everyone

8/17: 219.4 - I'm dropping a little each day which is good. Hopefully I'm out of the 220's for good now. I'm pretty sure I won't be seeing 217 by the end of 10 days but I'm hoping my next whoosh will drop me below that.

8/18: 218.4 - So much better today lol! I didn't work out yesterday because I kept getting dizzy so I stayed within my calorie goal and relaxed. I hope everyone is doing well today.

8/19: 218.2 - still headed in the right direction! Fell asleep before eating dinner yesterday and wondering if I should eat back those cals today. I could go for something sweet!

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!
8/17 -132.7 The struggle is real regardless of your age and size. I have 4 days to right this ship!!!

R11 SW 230.3
R12 SW 229.7
R13 SW 227.0

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.
8/18--228.3 Ugh, I'm not surprised about that number since I'm feeling heavy and bloated right now. Not sure what it is. Hopefully drinking my lemon water will help. Well, I will just keep with my water, eating, and exercise and just wait for my body, and the scale, to catch up.
8/19--227.2 I am shocked that I had this big drop since I still feel bloated and heavy and I weightlifted yesterday, but I will take it.
