R15 end weight 151.2
R16 end weight 151.4
R17 end weight 151

9-30 - 150.8
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. :-)

10/5 205.8 Had a bad day yesterday, was exhausted so slept half the day and ate all the salty food. Also forgot the meds, so some gain from that.
10/6 205.4 Did pretty good, Made it through pizza, did some roller skating. Awesome calorie burn. Was so busy didn’t have time for snacking at night. Just at work.

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.

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!

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.

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!

Well...to say I've had a set back is an understatement. I did great while on vacation - it's been the two weeks that I've been back - I've been eating like a pig (and that's an insult to pigs everywhere!).

Back for my 4th round.

R15 - 216.2
R16 - 218.2 - vacation
R17 - who knows what happened here.
R18 - goal of 219. The bulk of this should come off quick, right?

10/2 - 222.8
10/3 - 223 - well that's certainly not good
10/4 - 220.6 - that's more like it.

-> -> was invited to my inlaws, hard to keep from eating, but I got a good walk in afterwards.

10/1
-> -> forgot to weigh myself this morning, then ate like a piggie and the day is yet to be over, walked a little after before lunch, will probably walk some more after supper. didn't do any more considerable walking.. ate out for supper, tried to keep it healthy.

10/2 230.2lbs
-> -> bit of swelling this morning, had a lot of greasy & salty foods yesterday. Off to the gym!

10/5 226.4lbs
-> -> unmotivated day today.. hard to do anything, ate junk food, but at least I was able to take half portions so it wasn't as bad as it could've been. Went out for a 30mins walk after supper.

10/6 226.0lbs
-> -> today is another bad day. lethargic all day, couldn't get myself to do any exercise. But did do some walking outside with the bf & a friend for pokemon raids. More junk food today, but kept it to half portions and while I'm back to feeling blah, at least I'm posting here, so that's good.

9/30: 154.6 /Going back down to my lowest from R17. Ate under calories today but no exercise. The next two days are going to be a wash. I'm going to a conference in Maine and plan to enjoy myself in terms of food. I will try to still estimate everything I eat!
10/1: 155 /Up again. I don't know why. I mean, It's still my TOM and I didn't drink much water yesterday. It's equally disappointing because I'm going on this conference now and planning to eat more than usual. Well, off to the airport.
10/2: No scale (conference in Maine) / I ate over calories by a lot yesterday+today and did not and could not log everything...from lobster with butter to fries to specialty donuts and all the random munchies in between, along with alcohol. I throughly enjoyed myself but I'm terrified of the repercussions.
10/3: Too scared to weigh myself / It was hard to get back into the groove today. I didn't have snacks prepped. I felt peckish all day and munched on gourmet popcorn and random snacks. I stayed within calories, just barely, with little nutritional value and didn't go to the gym today. It was hard. I hope tomorrow will be a better day. I will weigh myself tomorrow.
10/4: 155.8 /Sigh, very disappointing. Was over calories but not by much. Getting back into the groove has been difficult (writing this on 10/5)
10/5: 155.2 /I just wish I was back in the 154s. Fasted until 2pm today because of physical/fasting blood glucose test. Actually came in at 155.8 in the morning but 155.2 (with dress on) at the doctor's office. I've decided to log the lower weight here while acknowledging my home scale weight. Under calories right now because of the fasting. Walked 10,000+ steps and biked 3 miles home from the doctor's. Also got some awesome size 10 American Eagle jeans and a size 8 pair to work towards!
10/6: 153.8 /Not going to get excited yet! If I can stay under 154 by 10/9, I'll be ecstatic! Ate within calories (though estimated sweet potato fries, so who knows). Had two whiskey diet cokes. Hoping to stay on track for this long weekend! *Fingers crossed*

Fine on calories, no added sugar, did some walking. I'm trying to talk myself into a short jog still tonight. Tried quinoa pizza crust for the first time, I'll definitely have it regularly. It's easier to make and less messy than traditional flour or cauliflower crust (which I only tried once but it was a pain to rice and drain the cauliflower).

10/1: 172.5 lbs
Good on calories, water, no added sugar but I made a small dessert with dates. Led a two-hour nature walk at work, which was fun.

10/2: 172.0
Have to be honest, I live in Las Vegas and I didn't get much sleep, spent the day pretty depressed. I wasn't directly affected, it's just too close to home. But, we went out to eat as we do every Monday so I had too many calories at one meal but stayed technically in my day's calorie goal. I also walked/jogged two miles. No added sugar.

10/3: 172.0
Just OK on food, didn't go over calories. I did have added sugar: accidentally had sweetened tea and had Szechuan sauce at dinner. Got a little exercise. Tomorrow's my Monday, will try to get a solid 8 hours.

10/4: 173.0
Had too much sodium yesterday, and probably today, too. No sugar, though. Woke up at 4:00 am for no reason, I hate that. No exercise today, I'll go to bed early and try to get it together to walk to work tomorrow.

10/5: 173.5
Fine on calories, no added sugar. Stayed away from sodium today, hope I'm down a little tomorrow. It didn't even cross my mind to walk to work this am, lol, totally forgot. I did get a nice walk in during work, though, almost 2.5 miles.

10/6: 172.0
I think I shed some of that sodium but I didn't have enough water today and TOM is any time now so I might tick up again tomorrow. The thing is, I don't have the best scale and it sometimes gives me several different results when I step on/off a few times in a row. So I'm in the 172-173 range. Let's see, got some exercise, no added sugar today, calories in range.

Day/Weight/Comment
9/30 155.0 I ate at maintenance yesterday but a solid number to start off this challenge. Today I ate a little over goal but logged everything
10/1 154.6 Today I logged and met my calorie goal tomorrow I will meet my macros. This is great accountability!
10/2 153.6 Hopefully I can hold this I would like to end this challenge staying under 154. Today my macros look good but I came up short on protein... good goal for tomorrow
10/3 153.8 If I can stay under 154 that would be awesome... Good work out this morning but a lot of candy this afternoon But there is always tomorrow
10/4 155.2 Hopefully this will be my high for this round...But today I logged accurately and met my calorie goal. So hopefully tomorrow will be better
10/5 153.8 yay Great! Ok I need to stay disciplined....I think I did ok today...we will see
10/6 No scale access this morning at the gym tomorrow I will have to see what the impact of two days of disciplined tracking I will try not to get my hopes up
10/7 154.4 still in the right area but I am greedy and want it to be lower we will see tomorrow. But I will admit this number is motivating me to meet my goals today
