9/30 185.4 I'm so happy. I don't know if it'll last but for right now, I'm thrilled. I've been working so hard with tracking.
10/1 185.4 Staying strong.
10/2 186.4 I didn't drink a lot of water and ate out this weekend. I'm hoping for a whoosh soon.
10/3 185.6 I did better yesterday with the water. I just feel better when I drink it a lot. I'm so close to 20 lbs. gone, I can taste it!
10/4. 184.4 The good thing today: I lost 20.4! The bad thing: I threw up on the way to work today. So now I'm home with a fever and nausea. I'm hoping this is just a stomach bug.
10/5 185.2 Dang it! Hoping I would stay down in the 184s. I'm feeling better today. I didn't eat a whole lot yesterday with the stomach yuckies.
10/6 184.4 Yippee! Let's see how this weekend goes.

9/30- 125.8, did a HIIT class and a kickboxing class.

10/2- 124.1 Rest day
10/3- 124.0 Arm day. Went over calories to the point where I stopped tracking. =(
10/4- 123.1 Whoooo. Binged on a Wendy's JBC combo, but was within calories. Did 2 kickboxing classes.
10/5- 122.0 !!!!!!!!!! Did a kickboxing class. Under calories.
10/6- 123.0 Ate at calories. Did one HIIT 30 minute class. Too much to hope the 122s lasted.

GW 165 (for now)
I went into R17 at 179ish and ended it at 178. Goal for this round is 176 or lower.
Day/Weight/Comment
9/30 - 176.4. Nice drop! Yesterday I ate super clean and made sure to get my water in. I've had a cold, so I've hardly moved, though. I'm hoping to get a walk or hike in today. This is my first full 10 day challenge and I'm excited to be involved.
10/1 - 177.2 I ate clean again yesterday and went on a hike. I'm recovering from a cold, so I turned around sooner than I'd planned, but I still did 3 miles and managed over 11,000 steps for the day. I've started ignoring MFPs calories and going off my Fitbit. MFP routinely gives me almost 300 calories more than my fitbit says I should eat, so I'll play around with this and see what happens. I had 2 NSVs victory - 1) I made a vegetarian dinner and really enjoyed it, and 2) I realized my weight would likely pop up today, and when it did, I didn't feel discouraged. This challenge is already helping me, thank you! Today I'm smoking tri-tips for dinner; portions may be an issue because they are delish!
10/2 - 177. Yay! I'm surprised after a nice dinner with wine last night, but my calories were spot on.
10/3 - 176.2. I was actually pretty hungry yesterday but tamed it with healthy foods.
10/4 - 176.2. Nothing major to report. Ate well, calories on target, and managed to go on a walk.
10/5 - 177. My calories have been good, this is a normal daily fluctuation, I think. I had a little wine last night and not enough water yesterday.
10/6 - 178. This literally makes no sense at all. Except our weight fluctuates daily. Right?!? Perhaps I didn't drink enough water yesterday, but everything else was spot on.

Round 13: 171.4
Round 15: 166.8
Round 16: 164.6
Back for Round 18!
9/30: 165.5 Just returned from NYC yesterday. I did pretty well during the week, but once the event was over, celebrated with drinks, salty food and a very long day yesterday, flying home. Lots of water and a good workout is on the agenda today.
10/1: 165.5 Didn't get in my workout yesterday. Business travel just screws with my momentum and energy. Trying to get my 64 oz of water in today.
10/2: 163.4 This drop is just what I needed this morning, because I was not feeling any motivation this weekend. The fridge is stocked with fruits and veggies and stuff for lunch. I have pre-tracked my food. Time to get back into the routine and make this stick!
10/3: 163.4 October is going to be busy, both work wise and on a personal level/family obligations. The potential for stress eating is high. I didn't exercise or drink enough water yesterday. Fought off the late night snacking, but I just didn't feel that great. Lots of sadness in the news yesterday. How I eat and how I exercise is about the only thing in my life that I control... I guess I should look at my going to bed instead of eating a bunch of sweets last night as a victory.
10/4: 163.5
10/5: 163.1 My body needs a jump start. Got my 30 Day Shred DVD out last night and did it. This worked well for me when I lost a bunch of weight 4 years ago. Still doing the C210K and have made it to 4 miles, so seeing progress. I have a bunch of cute fall clothes in my closet that are still a little too tight. Right now that is my motivation: to be able to get up in the morning and have everything fit!
10/6 163.1 Day 2 of 30 Day Shred in the books. I am sore, but a good sore and these muscles need to wake up. Breakfast & Lunch packed and tracked on MFP. TGIF!

9/30--223.9 Normal fluctuation. Went out for lunch yesterday. Goal for today is to continue drinking water.
10/1--225 WATER!!! Stretched today.
10/2--224.4 Was much better with my water yesterday.
10/3--223.9 Sick today. Trying to stay hydrated.
10/4--221.7 I'm not going to get too excited about this number. When I'm sick I lose my appetite and yesterday I barely ate.
10/5--221.7 Was still sick yesterday. Today feeling better and appetite is back, so we'll see how the scale reacts tomorrow.

9/30 - 223.6 - I have to get back on the ball with working out this week.
10/1 - 224.6 - I'm just having a rough run hovering within the same pound though so I guess that's not terrible.
10/2 - 225.6 - I HAVE to get back on the ball. Two weeks with little to no exercise and spotty tracking is catching up with me. Determined to get to the gym tonight and start getting everything back on track.
10/3 - 224.2 - Heading back in the right direction. Got to the gym and stayed in calories yesterday. Renewed motivation.
10/4 - 223.6 - Looks like things are under control again. Just have to keep working at it.
10/5 - 222.6 - I guess I was holding on to a lot of water. Numbers keep going down now that I'm back to walking three miles every night and keeping my diet in check. I'm pleased.
10/6 - 222.4 - Moving in the right direction. Going to have to make sure I keep it together this weekend w/ food and exercise so I don't backslide.

10/3 108.8 lbs What! So I have been limiting exercise to lose weight (yes that's right). Exercise increases my appetite. This week I am adding back lifting weights (which I love). The gain is not muscle (not yet) but more likely the water needed to increase my glycogen stores. My Calorie intake past 5 days = 1630. I should be able to recover if I stay consistent. Right?
10/4 107.8 - better but still over 1500 calories yesterday.

10/4 - 176.3 Happier about this number. I think the 175.5 earlier was dehydration. 2.5 mile walk
10/5 - 177.3 - It's interesting to watch the pattern here. Yesterday was pizza for dinner which of course means salt. I'm not surprised to see the number rise. The last couple of days I have done a lot of walking, 3-4 miles a day, so I wonder if my muscles are holding onto some water too. Time will tell! 4 mile walk
10/6 - 175.9 - Was careful about the sodium yesterday and it paid off. 2.5 mile walk

It's easier to stay under my calorie goal than it is my sodium goal! Most anything you buy that's in a jar, can, and a lot of frozen has over 250 mg sodium per serving. That means cooking a lot of fresh foods, especailly veggies!
10/01: 218.6
I do so much better when I concentrate on sodium as well as caliries!
10/02: 219.8
Irregularity again! Don't know why the medicine will start off working fine; then, after a week or two, it stops working! I've taken Linzess and now I'm taking Amitiza! Thought I had the problem licked, but I guess not! Oh well, back to the drawing board!!
10/03: 219.6
Had check up today at doctor's office; had lost 2.4 lbs. in 2 weeks! I would like to lose 10lbs. by Thanksgiving!
10/04: 219.4
Inch by inch, step by step; it may be slow, but if I keep inching, I'll get there by and by! Off to BSF I go! Blessings everyone!
10/05: 219.2
Still working on me! New medicine stopped working! Got a doctor's appointment on the 16th; maybe something good will come of it!
10/06: 219.2
Did great on calories, but the sodium was way over! It's harder to control calories than it is to control sodium. One cardiologist said, "If it tastes good-don't eat it!" Lol, I know exactly what he meant. Most 'lite or low fat' foods have increased sodium content to give it flavor, so it's a six in one hand - half a dozen in the other situation! You have to choose between calories or sodium. Yesterday, I chose calories!

9/30: oops. forgot.
10/1: 130
I literally have no clue what happened. It's not my TOM. I guess it's just a random fluctuation. Didn't eat super well yesterday because I got some bad story reviews (self medicating I guess). Maybe that plus stress was it.
10/2: 128.6
Stayed within calorie count and ate healthier, which definitely helped. Still a little stressed but it will get better. Started writing again today even though I didn't want to.
10/3: 127.4
I slept in this AM until 11. My hives are gone. I think those past few days of weight gain were stress related. I stood up in front of the group and read an excerpt from my piece out loud (the one that was getting bad reviews) and got my formal review today and it was approved! So I'm exhausted today and literally that is the only thing I can think of to explain the funky fluctuation in my weight.
10/4 no scale
10/5 no scale
10/6: 128.6
Honestly I can't believe I didn't gain all the weight back I've lost. My husband was in the hospital for a medical emergency and I was just eating what they had on hand for the past two days, cafeteria food and vending machine junk. Glad he's come home though and I'm back on track.

9/30 - 217.0. Starting off strong. I am going to the in-laws today for thanksgiving dinner and then it is my 1 year anniversary tomorrow and we are going out for dinner. This is also the last week of the 9 week Biggest Loser challenge so i need to finish strong.
10/1 - 218.0 up from eating a bit of cake and salty foods yesterday but i am very pleased with this number as I could easily have been 5lbs! I am heading out for a walk today with the baby and I hope to make it to the gym today! It's my 1 year anniversary but my husband is sick in bed so I'm trying to make the most of it!
10/2 - 216.4! Yahoo!! At the gym now pushing. Another thanksgiving dinner this weekend so I need to push now. 1 more week left of my biggest loser challenge and I want to contribute as much as I can to the team!
10/3 - 217.6 - expected after 3 days of sweets. No more! Looking for a babysitter to go to the gym but if not I already have plans to go for a walk and im.hoping to do 10km again! I will also do 2-3 quick home workouts at home on FitStar when baby is napping! Yesterday i went to the gym and pushed hard so I know it's just sugar weight I need to lose! Water water water today too!
10/4 - 217.0 still not back to my lowest but im ok with. Three reasons - sugar i had for 3 days, TOM starting soon and i lost 5lbs very quickly last week so it is probably balancing itself out. Hit the gym today and beat both records for distance/calories on cardio machines. Dodgeball practice and volleyball game tonight! Great day for exercise!
10/5 - 216.8 - slowly but surely. Ill slowly creep back into the 6s if it means i get to stay here! Gym done today! Healthy eating so far!
10/6 - 215.8 - ya!!! Lowest yet! At the gym again. I wont be going sat/sun/mon as i am out of town for thanksgiving weekend. Bringing my weight scale and food scale. Determined to stay within calories. And try to convince my relatives to go for a walk or two with me! Fingers crossed!

10/02 - 161.4 > 3 day weekend of camping fun... Maybe too much fun. Lots of long walks but maybe too many hot dogs and bacon. I'm pretty sure I'll be back on target again in the next few days.
10/03 - 160.2 I'm going to be a Nana today to a sweet baby girl!!
10/04 - 159.7 15,000+ steps, ate well but did have a small piece of cheesecake. SO got a call to go back to work this weekend but it may be just a few days. Haven't seen the baby yet but they are all doing well.
10/05 - 157.6. Ok back on track. 18,000+ Steps And hit calorie goals. Get to see the baby tonight so I’m trading in my step count for snuggles.
10/06 - 159.4 Baby snuggles, low step count, and pizza for dinner and SO leaving for undetermind amout of time all contributed to the number. Baby is so tiny. Happy Nana here!! Weekend here soon goals to get lots of steps in and go for a run.

02/10 - 219.8 - Busy birthday weekend over! I was happy with my back to work number today considering the food I indulged in. Thanksgiving is this weekend coming which means I have to work hard this week so this weekend does not derail me too much. Thankfully I'm not a huge turkey/stuffing/cranberry/pumpkin pie fan so I should be okay...
03/10 - 218.2 - Yeah....I think my goal weight for this round is starting to look a little ambitious. I pick up my instant pot today, so excited! No idea what to do with it but I'm hoping it will help in the evening to not eat so late because dinner takes forever to be done.
04/10 - 218.4 - That's a whole lotta nope.
05/10 - 218.9 - Well I'm not happy obviously but I did have a small sub yesterday for lunch and an incredibly salty cut of meat (pre marinated at the butcher that I would never buy again) along with sweet potato fries and corn for dinner...so ultimately pleasantly surprised. Hopefully it won't rear it's ugly head tomorrow.

9/30 / 228.6 / This coincides with a competition at work. My goal is the best 10 days EVER.
10/1 / 228.4 / Was expecting better than this but I failed on the diet.
10/2 / 227.2 / Picked up the cardio a bit harder and nailed the diet. I hope to be down a bit more tomorrow.
10/3 / 225.8 / nailed the diet, nailed the cardio, feeling pretty good about it! I'm positive i'm still dropping water weight. Though I like this 1lb a day thing!
10/4 / 224.8 / PHEW! Same status as above. Long Island from Friday's is calling my name... Must... Resist...
10/5 / 224.6 / Did pretty well yesterday and stayed under calorie goal. Looks like i need to up the cardio intensity. I'd like to see 220 by 10/9 weigh in.
10/6 / 223.6 / Progress was made. I skipped cardio yesterday and the burnout is hitting pretty hard. See above... Long islands are needed. haha I think i can hold out and maybe have a cheat meal tomorrow. Burgers? mmm

Good start, despite salty lunch out yesterday.
10-1 - 151
There's that sodium!
10-2 - 151.2
Up, down, up down... I've been way too hungry at 1500, so I've bumped my calorie goal back up to ~1700. I've been maintaining @ 1800-1900 for 6 months, so I should slowly lose at 1600-1700. I don't care about speed, as long as I'm moving in the right direction. And I'm not hangry!
10-3 - 151.2
I should be losing by all calculations, but I'm not. I've been hovering around 151 for months, eating anywhere from 1500-2000 calories. Doesn't make sense. Apparently my body thinks this is where it should be. Sigh.
10-4 - 151.2
Still here. Calories, exercise, macros all on point, so I duuno. Patience, I guess.
10-5 - 150.6
Finally! Jeesh! About time. :-)
10-6 - 150.8
That's fine - still under 151! Still hoping to get out of the 50's by the end of this round, but at least I'm moving in the right direction. Looking forward to meeting a long-time Facebook friend and her dogs today as they drive through. One of her Border Collies modeled for the cover of one of my mystery novels, and another inspired a scene in a later book. I've wanted to meet them for years! Then a long walk this evening. :-)

I notice a lot of people are dismayed after having done a vigorous workout the day before. One think I learned early in my first round of going to the gym was that when you workout, your muscles hold on to extra water to aid the healing process. I had to drink AT LEAST an extra liter of water on workout days to not have this show on the scale the next day. When in doubt, DRINK MORE WATER.6

Day/Weight/Comment
9/30 157 Come on whoosh!
10/1 157.5 WTH
10/2 156.5 Another tragedy in Las Vegas. Saturday night 4 teens walking on the sidewalk were mowed down by a car passing where there was no lane. Now at 59 dead and 527 injured on The Strip. Pray for Las Vegas.
10/3 157 I did not stress eat although I was pretty upset all day. DH reminded me that I wanted a Greek salad so I did not have to deal with fixing leftovers. Went to my fave Greek place, ate half of my salad w/gyro meat and 1/4 pita. Did not drink even half of my Daily water!
10/4 156.5 Played 2 games of bocce last night with DH, BFF, and her man-friend. Gentle activity but activity all the same!
10/5 155.5 Well hello again 155.5. I would love to meet your neighbors 154 and 153.
10/6 155.5 Okay Body, a little more please.5 -
This group has been life changing for me. Accountability is something that I need.
SW: 172.6
GW: 172 (30 lb. loss when I get there)
UGW: 125
10/01: 172.6 It's officially October! I think I need to break out some hot apple cider. I'll totally skip pumpkin spice.
10/02 172.2 I wasn't expecting a drop of any kind today, but this thrills me to no end. Only 2 more oz. to go, and I've lost a total of 30 lbs. I CAN AND WILL DO THIS!
10/03 172.2 Steady...steady. I put in about 10,000 steps yesterday. I ate all of my calories plus 17 more before exercise.
10/04 172.6 Well, I'm up 4 oz today. I was in meetings all day, so I didn't get as many steps in. I'll get there to that 30lbs...eventually.
10/05: 172.6 Did not eat nearly enough in calories AND didn't get a lot of steps in. I also barely drank anything at all. It wasn't because I didn't want to. I simply had a lot of personal things going on. I have a tendency to not eat much when upset. I've been this way all of my life.
10/06: 172.8 It's slowly creeping back on me. I was at work until almost 7 last night. I had Taco Bell for dinner even though I did go with a healthy option, but I ate late. Not good at all. 6 -
I'm in!
R16 start: 165.7 end:164.4
R17 start 164.4 end: 161.4
R18 goal: 160.5
This round I am committed to prepping my breakfasts and planning my dinners on Sundays, and tracking every day.
Day/Weight/Comment
9/30 164.6 Ugh. 3lbs up from R17 end weight. Not going to get too discouraged. I have been drinking this week and eating fast food so time to cut back again on the alcohol & carbs.
10/1 166. Sigh
10/2 165.8
10/3 165. Trying not to feel discouraged. I learned one time that I should think of my weight as a "range of numbers" rather than just one number, so 165 is now at the top of the range rather than the bottom like it was 20 days ago. Focusing on tracking, drinking my water and watching my carbs!
10/4 163.8 Trending downward. Stayed within calorie goals and watched carbs yesterday. Feeling really stressed today and trying to force myself to eat but I haven't been successful so far.
10/5 162 Pretty big drop again. Glad to be moving down but also mindful of the fact that I was way under calorie goals yesterday and worked out. Trying to make sure that I eat enough today to have more stable weight loss and not yo-yo.
10/6 164. Fluctuations feel so dramatic lately. Think it's because Im eating better but not working out enough for the #s to look conistent. Planning to increase workouts for this and next round!
