8/21 - out of town
8/22 - out of town
8/23 - 194.9 Back from Eclipse viewing and other exhausting things. Did not have access for a few days.
8/24 - 194.7
8/25 - 195.5 I'll own it. I've been slacking. That's why this thread is good. I need to tighten up. Of course I hope it's water retention. I don't think I've been that bad.
8/26 - 195.5 No change in scale weight, but I feel like my skin is going to pop open, I am sooooo bloated.
8/27 - 198.1 **sigh**
8/28 - 197.1 Break is over. Let's get this train moving.
8/29 - 194.7 The bloat is flushed. Now to refocus on daily tasks: exercise, meal planning. Daily focus is important; as seen here a few days off track can be off-putting.
8/30 - 192.7
Perseverance is not a long race; it is many short races one after the other.
See you in race round 15!!!

8/21 - 162.4 - I knew a 1.1 lb loss overnight wasn't going to stick but still generally going the right direction.
8/22 - 162.2 - Slow and steady...all good.
8/23 - 162 - no exercise the last two days but have been under calories. Can't say I've made the best nutritional choices though. Will do better today.
8/24 - 161.6 - got some good exercise in, lots of water, and stayed at calories. Progress showing up on the scale!
8/25 - 161.6 - did well with calorie intake yesterday but no time for exercise. Lots of exercise coming up today though!
8/26 - 161.6 - Dear body, you may now let go of 1.1 lbs so I can met my goal. Im proud of you. Love, me
8/27 - 161.6 - Dear body, I hear you...you're not ready. I trust you know what you are doing. Love, me
8/28 - 162 - Body...seriously, what the heck? You know I've been doing great for 5 days straight. Is TOM coming?
8/29 - 161.4 - Magic mood ring says TOM is coming so I'm good with this. Getting in exercise, calories on point, and tons of water.
8/30 - 161.2 - A little exercise, under calories, not as much water as usual...didn't make goal but I'm OK with moving that direction. Onward to round 15!9 -

Day/Weight/Comment
8/21 - 231.8 - heading back in the right direction after my family reunion this weekend
8/22 - 230.6 - hoping this holds; almost as low as I got last round
8/23 - 230.0 - a new low! Hard work is feeling like it is starting to pay off. Even if I can't see the results when I look in the mirror, I absolutely feel better and that's what is important.
8/24 - 229.0 - wow! I didn't expect that! I expect it will bounce around some, but it sure felt good to see!
8/25 - 229.0 - holding steading; TOM started today so I must have been holding on to some water weight
8/26 - 229.2 - felt pretty bloated this morning so I'm happy with this
8/27 - 229.2 - I'm not surprised. Pizza last night (sodium) and not enough sleep. Really hoping I don't bounce up tomorrow!
8/28 - 230.2 - Family barbecue yesterday. I probably ate around maintenance and tracked as best as I could. Not really concerned because I know it isn't a pound of fat! Hoping it goes back down over the next two days so I can end this challenge at my goal. So close!
8/29 - 229.2 - alright! Back down from yesterday. Was able to walk 3 miles last night and get my eating back on track. Feeling good.
8/30 - 229.0 - GOAL!!!! (for this round anyway) So happy I got here after an off round last time.

8/21 - 156.1 – focus on whole food
8/22 - 155.6 – right direction, must keep logging…
8/23 – 154.4 – whoa.
8/24 - 154.3
8/25 – 153.8 Goal for the round…but…the weekend approaches…Really wanted a non – whole food snack and glass of wine last night so I went to bed early instead.
8/26 - 153.8 Goal for the weekend is exercise and plenty of water
8/27 - 153.0 Ate to my number including exercise calories but feeling mighty hungry and low energy
8/28 - 152.9
8/29 - 152.6
8/30 - 151.5 - Quite a bit down since this is my first time back in a while. Feeling good and realize I should expect slower losses from here out. That's OK!

8/21 - 215 - old scale
8/22 - 221.8
8/23 - 221.4
8/24 - 219.6
8/25 - 219.8
8/26 - 219.2 - Am loving this digital scale - even if it did add about 6 pounds to the old one. Even a couple tenths of a pound is encouraging!
8/27 - 219 - tomorrow's weigh in will be interested. After I weighed myself this morning, I went on a 62 mile bike ride. So I burned lots of calories - but ate a lot too!
8/28 - 219 - not surprised. Despite all the calories burned yesterday, lots of calories were consumed to keep my energy level up. But I need to be good the next two days so I can hit my goal of 218.
8/29 - 218.2
8/30 - 218.8
So my goal was 218. Fell a little short - but am still happy about it. 3 lbs. gone in 10 days - what's not to love?
I'll be back!12 -

8/21 205.6 been stuck on 205 forever!
8/22 206.6- started T.O.M yesterday so that weight gain is probably from that. Did weight lifting and cardio. Fitbit said I burned 967 calories
8/23 206.6- did back and biceps. Burned close to 400 calories. Didn't drink enough water or eat enough.
8/24 205.6 did a hour of light cardio country heat. Counted my calories. Ate good, but should of drank more water
8/25 204.4 didn't workout yesterday but ate very good. Ate about 1500 calories
8/26 204 -did shoulders and counted calories at well.
8/27 203.2! Omg I've never been this low since 2012! So I watched what I ate around 1800 calories. Didn't workout bc I was too lazy to! But I didn't eat bad. Had an amazing eggplant zucchini noodle lasagna last night! Going to make that again for sure.
8/28 204.2 yesterday I watched what I ate was over about 200 calories. Walked for 50 mins
8/29 201.8 yesterday was awful! I got strep throat so I could barely swallow anything down without it hurting a lot! I ate 1000 calories and absolutely no exercise. Just laid on the couch the whole time.
8/30 201.0- I'm trying to not get too excited because I know that there's a good chance it may go up once I'm feeling better and able to eat more solid foods. Since I'm no longer contagious with my strep throat I'm going to hit the gym today so this weight stays off!

8/22. 165.5 will focus today on making healthy choices.
8/23 166.5. I knew it would go up. In the middle of orientation week activities as my daughter starts college and am surrounded by food and treats 24/7. Today is the last day and the temptations should be gone.
8/24 167 I'm not surprised. Committing to refocus my efforts.
8/25 168
8/26 165.5. Back where I started at the beginning of the challenge. Hope to make some progress now in the next few days and finish strong!
8/27 166.5
8/28 167 going in the wrong direction and only 2 days left. ☹️
8/29 167.5
8/30 165. Ending the 10 days at .5 pound lighter. Wasn't what I was hoping for but looking back I can see why. Looking forward to the next 10 days!12 -
8/21 215.2 / Dang! We ate out yesterday, I took a nap, went for a 2 mile run, made a super delicious dinner AND had a cupcake. It was pretty awesome and so this number isn't really bothering me. Focusing on lots of water today!
8/22 / 213.7 / Well, less than my last round but I can still feel some bloating so I'm hoping with adequate water today and a run that we'll be back in the 211s tomorrow.
8/23 / 213.7 / Meh. Ran 3.3 miles last night WITH EASE dang I'm so glad I got back into running. Weather was cooler and the run was more enjoyable than usual. Was way under calories. I have this feeling my scale doesn't weigh correctly day to day because I'm the same weight with clothes on, without clothes on, before the bathroom, after the bathroom. What scale does everyone here use? Anywho I'm not disappointed with the number. I'm feeling pretty great
8/24 / 210.1 / Lowest yet! Ran another 3.25 last night with more ease. Ate well and drank a lot of water. Thumbs up!
8/25 / 209.8 / just took my girls to the park after work. Pushing a double stroller is a good workout! Lol but I took yesterday as a rest day and was only over my calories by 30something. I'm out of the 10s!!
8/26 / 209.8 / went to a Greek festival last night after my run and ate awesome authentic Greek food and deserts. Drank a few beers. Went for a 3.5 run today after a 2.5 hour nap. I was so exhausted today for whatever reason.I have the best husband! Feel a ton better after getting my long run in. Using the 10PR method of increasing distance. By October/November I'll be in half marathon range!
8/27 / 210.4 / Sorry missed posting this day! i still track daily with happyscale so I have it recorded
8/28 / 212.7 / Sunday was a fun food day. I ate a lot. But I'm definitely not dissapointed with this number. I know it'll just take me a few days to get rid of the water weight and I'll be good to go by thursday hopefully down to 208 or so.
8/29 / 212.7 / No exercise yesterday. 2 days in a row is the longest I let myself rest so starting back up tonight. I feel the weight of demotivation coming so I gotta break through that and nip it in the bud.
8/30 / 209.5 / Walked to and from Zumba last night. First time back and had so much fun! Ending this round in the 200's and i'm so ready to hit onederland in a few weeks!10 -
I'm focusing on one day at a time.

8/21 269.8 Goals: 25mins cardio; 10k steps; 3.0L water; track all food- all done
8/22 270.6 Goals: Strength Training; 10k steps; 3.0L water; Track all food- all done
Stayed under calories; ate plenty veggies, protein, and fruit- enjoyed each meal and my evening snack.
8/23 270.6 Goals: 25 mins cardio; 10K steps; 3.0L water; Track all food-all done
Barely stayed under calorie but I am always hungrier after cardio. I don’t eat back exercise calories because I don’t know how accurate my Apple Watch is about calculating calories burned.
8/24 269.8 Goals: Strength Training; 10K Steps; 3.0L water, Track all food- all done
Stayed under calorie. It was harder to feel satisfied and found myself fighting the desire to eat due to boredom. NSV: Upped a set strength training.
8/25 271.6 Goals: Rest day; 10K steps; 3.0L water; Track all food- all done
Drank 4.0L of water. Did better on the desire to eat out of boredom. Drank water and found something else to capture my attention. I found myself wanting to do something fitness wise. Think I will look into something fun and fitness related for rest days.
8/26 271.0 Goals: 25 mins cardios; 10k steps; 3.0L water; Track all food- all done
Drank 4.0L of water. Stayed under 1300 calories. Food met satiety well today.
8/27 269.2 Goals: BW Strength Training; 10K Steps; 3.0L water; Track all food- all done
Glad to see the scale move downward today. Sticking to the plan pays off. Drank 4.0L of water. Stayed busy and I had to squeeze in a walk to meet my step goal last night. I didn’t want to but I am glad I did.
8/28 268.0 Goals: 25 mins cardio; 10k steps; 3.0L water; Track all food- all done
It is nice to see this new low. Drank 4L of water. Cardio went well; I have noticed increased ease while doing the more intense intervals. I also took the opportunity to do leg strength training because I know tomorrow it is going to be hard to fit it all in.
8/29 267.8 Goals: Upper Body Strength Training; 10k steps; 3L of water; Track all food; be extra mindful while having lunch out- all done.
Spending much of today on a bus for a field trip to the aquarium and will be eating out at a pizza place for lunch. I managed to meet all my goals and only go over calories by 130 calories. I am considering it a win.
8/30 265.8 – pretty sure the scale is just tripping. Goals: 25 minutes of cardio; 10k steps; 3L of water; Track all food-

8/27 138.8 30 min elliptical, ate just under calorie goal
8/28 138.4 30 min elliptical and under calorie goal
8/29 137.3 Wow! It's true that it does not happen at the same rate each week. 30 min elliptical, ate back almost all exercise calories.
8/30 138.6 no exercise, over by about 550 calories (dinner out because son had back to school night, no time to go home after work to eat, and no time for exercise). also, chose to over snack at night because feeling upset by what son's teacher reported about him not doing classwork.
Down 1.4 pounds this round
I am still having a response to stress or emotional upset that involved eating. I really want to stop this behavior. It is no where near the problem that it used to be, but once in a while I find myself having that response. Eating more is not helpful in resolving any issues.14 -

8/23: 206 -- over calories (but trending downward), worked out. I think this week is shaping up to be an unintentional diet break (at it since late April).
8/24: 206 -- nothing if not consistent (weight, eating, workouts, etc.) This has been, and continues to be, an awful week on many levels so I'm happy to maintain right now.
8/25: 204.8 -- under calories thanks only to a vigorous workout.

SW: 211 on 10/23
End of Round 13: 157.0
8/21: 156.2 - weight seems to be melting off at this point. I won't complain!
8/22: 156.4 - TOM is here and I feel lousy. Wouldn't be surprised to see my weight creep up a bit from TOM.
8/23: 156.8 - I've been under calories, but obviously TOM is causing gain. One thing I like about weighing daily is I know things like this happen and it doesn't stress me out.
8/24: 156.0 - TOM is still here, but feeling better and weight seems to be moving in the right direction again. Would love to keep it here or lower.
8/25: 157.4 - yesterday was the day from *kitten* was way over sodium and about 100 calories over as well. hoping my weight drops back down soon, but not sweating it.
8/26: 157.0 - right direction, but still struggling to keep sodium down yesterday and today.
8/27: 156.0 - back to where I was. Going to try to stay here or lower. Will be hard because I'm going through some things and just want to eat.
8/28: 156.6 - way over sodium again and about 100 calories over again as well. glad the weekend is over and now I can go back to my normal routine. hopefully, I can get in enough water in the next few days to end this round strong.
8/29: 156.6 - yesterday was better, but still struggling. Let's hope my weight drops a bit by tomorrow, but if not I'm okay with that also.
8/30: 156.8 - weight is just bouncing around at this point, but I'm not too worried about it.6 -

I'm joining this late, but I hit 145 (my heaviest weight ever) and that spurred me to finally start tracking my calories with MFP. I exercise every day (gym 3x week and running 4x) but truly you can't out exercise a bad diet. In the week I'm not eating my exercise calories, but I am on the weekends when I do a long run. I have MFP set to lose a pound a week right now and I think I'm losing a ton of water weight. When I reach my goal of 130 I will switch to 1/2 a lb a week and then maintenance. What has helped me is instead of tracking what I eat after the fact, I pre-log my meals. So I don't blow it all by lunchtime!

Round 14
SW: 147.6
GW: 139
End of round goal: 146
Goal: Get to mainstream by the first of the year!
8/27 147.6 ~ (Steps 18,495 Miles 7.36) ~ Today's my sons birthday......Yesterday I was able to get a nice morning walk in plus hit the gym in the evening since it was too hot outside. I had to push myself to hit the gym, it did pay off in the scale, yay! Another pound off, I'm trying to lose the 5 pounds I gained from vacation,
8/28 148.8 ~ Yesterday, since I didn't get ANY exercise in plus my sodium was high, I have a gain. I didn't over eat though so my gain is only a pound. Yesterday's, was a success in my books!
8/29 148.3 ~ (Steps18,169) Miles 7 ~ I was hungry the whole day but was able to stick to my dairy, keeping my sodium low. I decided to try getting a workout before getting breakfast. Last night I had to alter my menu since my husband got off late from work. On the plus side a couple workouts during the day helped.
8/30 147.9 ~ (Steps 19,101 Miles 7.7) ~ Yesterday went well with goals, I was able to get a couple workouts at the gym. I switching up though, having my protein drink after my first workout. I need to focus on more fruits for snacks, after vacation, I'm having trouble incorporating them into my diet.Not at my goal for this round but I'm ready for the next round! 9 -

R13: 220
8/21: 219.8 - I feel like I'm getting nowhere this month. I'm hoping for a whoosh and a decent drop over the next 10 days.
8/22: 218.2 - This same weight again! I feel like I'll never get below that number
8/23: 218.2 - Again! I just want to see a drop so bad but I guess it could be worse.
8/24: 217.8 - That's better lol! It's my daughter' 7th birthday!
8/25: 217.4 - It may not be much but that is a new low! I managed to stick to my calories yesterday while still enjoying some ice cream cake
8/26: 216.8 - I had two HUGE bowls of spaghetti last night and did not expect that number this morning. Another new low!
8/27: 218 - Daughter's birthday party yesterday. We had lots of fun and I managed to stay in my calories and didn't feel the need to eat a bunch of cake!
8/28: 217.6 - I haven't felt good these last couple of days. I'm thinking it's all the junk food I've been eating with the birthday party and such. Yesterday I had a mini binge and went over my calories eating cereal and cupcakes. Not a good idea. Today is a new day and I l'll ne jumping back into my old routine.
8/29: 217 - Upped my calories since I've been doing strength exercises and am more hungry than usual. I'm a little nervous about it though and hope I can keep up my weightloss.
8/30: 216 - I was so excited to see that number this morning! I've officially lost 40 lbs and have more motivation than ever! This has been a very successful round for me

8/21 - 177 - fluctuating between 175 & 177 - big BBQ on Sat. I have leftovers for a week. :-(
8/22 - forgot to weigh in this morning. :-( This will take some getting use to. I ate left overs yesterday but managed to stay within my calories intake. To much bread though. We got these awesome buns and I don't want to waist them. I am thinking about trying not drinking for a month. Sept is pretty quite. I wonder if I can do it. 50 min of walking and 60 squats
8/23 176.6 I did okay with eating today. Even though spaghetti for dinner. Company again. 50 min of walking. 20 leg raises.
8/24 176.8 80 squats 50min of walking and W1D2 C25K
8/25 176.4 Mom is in the hospital - Ulcer issues?
8/26 175.2 BBQ and company all day. To much junk food and drinks.
8/27 176 went hiking this morning. I'm almost at 12k steps on and is only 1:00
8/28 177 TOM started yesterday. I am so tired and sore today. Moved 2 dryers yesterday up and down stairs plus went hiking 5k. I'm sure feeling it today. Oldest daughter called me yesterday saying she has been kicked out. Expects to move in. I said no, feeling bad. More stress. Ugh! Started eating junk.
8/29 177.6 No sleep last night. Too hot and all I can do is worry about my Mom and daughter. Mom is still in the hospital. No word on what is happening yet. They wanted her to sign a DNR form. She asked them if she was that sick and they said no. So then why would they ask her to sign one? She didn't sign it. Missed out on doing C25K again. I need energy for that. I'm thinking nap when I get home. If I can sleep. It is another scorcher today.
8/30
Don't worry about them wanting the form. They just need to know everybody's wishes if something happened. It may be called the "DNR" (do not resuscitate) form but you can fill it out either way. It could just as easily be called the "do everything you can" form because that is one of the choices. Best wishes to you and your Mom (and your daughted, too).3 -

Round 8/1: HW 274.4 LW 269.8 MidW = 271.9
Round 9/2: HW 269.4 LW 266.8 MidW=268.1
Round 10/3: HW 269 LW 266.4 MidW = 267.7
Round 11/4: HW 267.4 LW 264.2 MidW = 265.8
Round 12/5: HW 264.8 LW 261.2 MidW = 263.0
Round 13/6: HW 263.8 LW 260.6 MidW = 262.2
My goal for this round is to have recovered from my eclipse-weekend stay-cay with friends from out of town.
8/21 264.6 -- I’m creeping up the last few days due to taking a logging vacation while friends are in town for the eclipse. They leave later today so starting tomorrow, it’s back to the new normal.
8/22 266.0 -- We saw the totality through a break in the clouds BUT four days of eating with wreckless abandon has sure packed pounds back on. I know some are water but some are probably truly “recovered poundage.” Back to counting & measuring today.
8/23 266.4 -- Oh, I see, the scale is going to be ugly about it. Anyway, yesterday was a nice, easy, within calorie limits day. The is an interesting experiment.
8/24 264.6 -- Okey dokey, starting to go back down. Made homemade pasta last night and a single egg batch is now two meals worth rather than one (4 servings rather than 2). That’s an improvement for both of us.
8/25 262.6 -- It’s going to take more than 3 days of TDEE-500 to recover from 4 days of reckless abandon but I’m getting there! It’s been surprisingly easy to eat within limits again.
8/26 262.2 -- This now matches the mid-weight of last round. Aiming for the low-weight of last round.
8/27 261.8 -- Trust the process ...
8/28 261.4 -- Getting there ...
8/29 260.2 -- A new low!! The damage done over eclipse weekend is undone! CICO!!
8/30 259.2 -- Hallelujah! Ending the challenge with a brand new 2nd digit!
Well, this was a wild ride! I’ve learned it takes at least a week to recover from 4-days of eating with reckless abandon!

8/28 182.0 Noooo!! Being sick plus TOM is a bad combo for me. Way to much eating snacky type foods and not tracking. I just hope I can get back into the 170's at this point.
8/29 180.0 Keep going down...

I've been losing and gaining the same 3 lbs since March. 173 is my lowest, I just so want to see the 6's again.
Day/Weight/Comment
8/21-176 Ate Mexican food out for the last 3 nights. Wonder why I gained 3 lbs back?
8/22 - 175. I knew some of this was just sodium. But I DID run 2 miles last night.
8/23 - 175. Did some weight lifting and went for a walk. Stayed within points. Its a win for today.
8/24 - 174.8 I'll take it. Stayed under points, ran and did yoga.
8/25 - 174.4 still the right direction. Took a rest day. My body was complaining. Back to working out today.
8/26 -174
8/27 - 175
8/28 - 175.8 - so seeing my problem. The weekends are doing me in! I can do great all week, just not enough schedule for me to stay on track. I need to plan better beforehand. And maybe have a 1 or 2 beers less.
8/29 - 177.7 - sigh
8/30 - 174.4 Ok, not where I wanted. But lower than I started.
This has been a very good Challenge for me. I look forward to logging my weight everyday and seeing how others have done. Thanks!!3 -
