11/9 154.6 Lowest I've been in a while, but will be especially happy if I can get to 153 this round. I keep gaining & losing the same weight.
11/10 155.2
11/11 155.6 I'm good with this. Hopefully I'll still make it back down.
11/12 156.4 Having trouble since Friday afternoon. The gain makes sense since I haven't been dieting or exercising.

11/9 172.8 off to a good start. to be truthful I'm not expecting any major moves on the scale, since I had a good loss this past week. but maybe by the end of this round I can see another
11/10 172.6 I like it! tonight is bourbon and halo top night!
11/11 172.4 seems good! I'm feeling a bit dehydrated from booze and popcorn last night . Planning a quick hike down to the river with the kiddos and the dogs today, so gotta drink up the H20!
11/12 173.4 (bf: 38.8%) We had bbq takeout last night after our hike.I think I did ok food wise, I guess I could call it a maintenance day since I ate a bit too much but nothing crazy. I'm up a lb, but down a percentage point of body fat, so I know it's water. Back on plan today, hoping for a good loss by Wednesday.
11/13 173.4 well, yesterday I was not completely successful with my plan. Tightening up today.

Back again! I started midway through Round 2 at 153.9 on 4/29. For this round I'd like to get below and stay below 140. Started at 162 something back in early March so I'm down over 20 pounds. I am aiming to reach goal of 132 before New Years. It's been verrry slow the last couple months plus I ended round 21 higher than I started. Need new incentive.
Day/Weight/Comment
11/9141.4 No sleep = no exercise yesterday. Today dance plus a senior yoga class. Come on!
11/10 141.8 Dance class and senior yoga yesterday. Feelin' good despite the weight gain from cherry pie someone gave me. Loved every bite, no regrets. today, pool class. I realized I've doing doing this bouncing around this weight ever since my youngest son moved back in with his little boy. I'm spending more time preparing food for them and not enough doing it for me. Need to focus more on my menu as well as theirs.
11/11 141 Can't explain this drop as I ate candy yesterday. But... I did go to gym and pool exercise. Felt so good. Today, elliptical and lunch out. The restaurant specializes in burgers and grilled cheese... I didn't pick it.
11/12 140.4 Yeah! Was tempted to get a sandwich but stuck with a salad and just one glass of wine... We went to an animal welfare fund raiser focused on wine. So happy with this number.
11/13 141 Did quite the workout at the gym yesterday, think muscles are retaining fluid as I ate clean.

11/09 - 188.5 I love this number but it belongs at the end of round 21. Where were you yesterday? And this is why I posted the chart of daily weighing. It's up, down up, down, but the overall trend is what's important.
11/10 - 188.3 Super! Two days down in a row. Had sushi yesterday, but there was no rice. The wrap was cucumber. That was different. And delicious.
11/11 - 187.8 Having a good round so far. This number surprised me, as I expected my usual couple days down next day up. No complaints, and I have been strict on my calories the last few days as I had missed my step goal. Love the whoosh!
11/12 - No weigh in today. At my mom's. No scale.
11/13 - 189.4 let's just try to keep it under 190! I can handle the bounce. Had some lovely Pinot Noir the last two days. And yesterday while on the road I ate me some spicy Popeyes for lunch. Just a little sodium overload.
But sooooo tasty.

Round 18: 164.1
Round 20: 165
Round 21: 164.5
11/9: 162.1 Got my new bluetooth scale yesterday, so weight will probably adjust. Had a good day yesterday. Managed my portions well and went out in the cold and rain to the gym to do my C25K. Have finished the 5K part, now I am going back a few weeks and upping the speed.
11/10: 163.2 This seems a little more realistic! Yesterday's drop probably due to a weird perimenopausal TOM I was having all week? Maybe the new scale, too? I was really hungry yesterday, and very busy at work. Got my exercise and water in, but didn't track.
11/11: 163.4 Felt good yesterday. Not feeling deprived, and my body feels stronger because of the exercise. I guess if I wanted to lose faster I could severely limit certain foods, but with the holidays coming, my mind and body are not prepared for that.
It's all about balance. Which is so hard to achieve sometimes!
11/12: 164.5 Had a good day cleaning, laundry, good workout, a little shopping with my daughter... but did have some wine and salt & vinegar pop chips (my weakness) and a higher calorie dinner than normal. Could barely get my rings off this morning. Back to paying closer attention to sodium and calories, so will *sigh* start tracking again today.
11/13: 164.1 Was more mindful of the sodium, but still went over by 104mg yesterday. Really going to focus these next five days.

Age 60, 5'4" [lost 1/2" somewhere, not the measurement I wanted to lose]
SW 195 [joined MFP Nov 2015, lost 9.5# & got serious Jan 2017]
1st Goal 150 in a livable way = It's. Not. A. Diet.
2nd Goal 145 = normal BMI
UGW Range 140 - 145
I weigh first thing in the morning when I get up. My scale only has 1/2# increments, and I'm too cheap to buy a fancier scale. Comments reflect prior day.10/20/17: Oooh, I like this thread! I've been weighing myself daily since April, keeping track in MFP Food Notes, and logging my "official" weigh-ins on Saturdays. I've been amazed at how much my weight can fluctuate from day to day, depending on eating out or processed foods, adult beverages, net calories green or red, etc. Daily weigh-ins really help me see cause and effect with high sodium, too much sugar, etc. I don't get freaked now by a jump on the scale, since I know what I did to cause it, and what I can do to change it.
R20 SW 166.0 (my round 1)
R20 LW 164.5 EW 166.5
R21 LW 163.0 EW 164.0Round 21
10/30: 166.0 Very sedentary day (church, visit parents & 3 hour round trip) following high carb day, no surprise. Fitbit 3,888 steps, 250+ steps 5/14 hours & 7 floors. At least I drank 12c water.
10/31: 165.0 Fitbit 13,521 steps, 250+ steps 12/14 hours & 48 floors and 12c water
11/01: 164.5 Fitbit 13,993 steps, 250+ steps 14/14 hours (boom) & 40 floors; 12c water
11/02: 164.0 Dog-walk day plus active evening: two loads of laundry, made large couscous salad, cooked triple batch cream of leek soup & baked lemon zucchini cake. Fitbit 16,109 steps, 250+ steps 13/14 hours & 42 floors; 13c water.
11/03: 165.0 Expected. Net calories red plus non-dog walk day plus shortened workday (fewer stairs breaks) plus inactive evening (busy-ness & stress of past 3 days took its toll). Fitbit 8,110 steps, 250+ steps 10/14 hours & 20 floors. 12c water.
11/04: 163.0 Wow, unexpected. Of course, net calories green, dog walk day & kept busy around the house after work. Fitbit 16,188 steps, 250+ steps 14/14 hours (boom) & 49 floors (plenty of stairs breaks at work plus home); 12c water.
11/05: 164.5 Pizza for supper, net calories red & 12c water. Walked dog 3.58 miles. Fitbit 16,837 steps, 250+ steps 9/14 hours, and 28 floors.
11/06: 166.0 Ack! Can you say sodium? Not great eating all day but active. Then caved when hubby got out tortilla chips & salsa con queso in the evening. Usually I ignore his snacking, but he was sitting next to me on the couch. I will have to forbid snacking next to me in future. Net calories red > 500 and sodium > 4,600mg oh my! 10c water and Fitbit 15,573 steps, 250+ steps 9/14 hours & 20 floors. Will be drinking lots of water today.
11/07: 164.0 Better. Net calories red 12, sodium green & 15c water. Fitbit 14,887 steps, 250+ steps 14/14 hours (boom) & 41 floors.
11/08: 164.0 Non-dog walk day, net calories red 319 & 12c water. Fitbit 7,056 steps, 250+ steps 13/14 hours & 28 floors. On to the next round!
11/09: 163.5 Active day, including dog walk 3.09 miles. Fitbit 16,212 steps, 250+ steps 13/14 hours & 46 floors. 10c water.
11/10: 163.0 Non-dog walk day. Fitbit 7,901 steps, 250+ steps 13/14 hours & 34 floors. 10c water & net calories green (barely).
11/11: 164.5 That's what happens after net calories -362 and super high sodium (smoked salmon & crackers w/ hubby). Walked dog 3.86 miles & yardwork prepping for winter. Fitbit 16,147 steps, 250+ steps 11/14 hours (day at home) & 35 floors. 14c water, need to keep that up today.
11/12: 163.5 Net calories red, sodium green, 13c water. Walked dog 2.34 miles. Fitbit 10,439 steps, 250+ steps 7/14 hours & 15 floors.
11/13: 164.0 Sometimes I wish my scale weighed in .1 increments. Oh well, as long as I can see the trend long term. Walked dog 3.28 miles. Fitbit 15,118 steps, 250+ 10/14 hours (church & watched Packers game) and 28 floors. 12c water.

ROUND 22 (first round for me)
Day/Weight/Comment
11/9 - 143.4 - (missed this day starting late) this plateau weigh has held 5 days
11/10 - 142.4 - may be dehydrated, great workout yesterday!
11/11 - 142.0 - under calorie goal yesterday and ran 25 minutes. Usually I don't get 2 days of loss after a plateau breaks
11/12 - 143.2 - I do bounce around. But also: I was super emotional last night about my daughter (who is not choosing to speak to us, heartbreak) and I overate; not over calories, but ate back all my exercise calories which I know is a bad habit.
11/13 - 143.4 - rebound continues, no worries. under calories easily yesterday, ran 42 minutes. I HAVE FAITH IN THE PROCESS (repeat as necessary)

Thank you so much, Cyranda! This challenge has kept me going with no thoughts of quitting. I get so much out of reading everyone’s daily squibs! Thank you all for sharing. And persisting!!
I’ve done 14 of these challenges which is exactly 20 weeks. I started MFP before joining the challenges so there’s no starting whoosh represented here. I’ve been aiming at a 500-calorie per day deficit which would theoretically result in a 1-pound/week loss. From high to low in 20 weeks I’ve lost 24 pounds. I’ll take it! CICO!!

Day/Weight/Comment
11/9 252.0 -- up a touch but ate with reckless abandon yesterday and I know some of it is water by how my ring feels. Wedding ring fell off once yesterday but it won’t this morning. Ordered ring guards. Lose weight? Yes. Lose wedding ring? NO!.
11/10 253.8 -- Salty food and too much of it. The scale just gave me the dope slap.
11/11 255.8 -- Took a day off to eat with reckless abandon -- much of it salty. Resume new normal today!
11/12 255.0 -- After a couple nights of late night snacking it could be very easy to slide into an old pattern. Tonight I go to bed and read. There’s no food downstairs in the bedrooms. (Our house is “upside down.”)
11/13 255.0 -- I clearly need to set myself an arbitrary rule to prevent reckless eating late at night. Okay. Here it is. Simple really. No eating after 9 p.m.
11/14 No eating after 9 p.m.
11/15 No eating after 9 p.m.

I’m traveling for work for 6 days this round so I plan to be more strict on those days. I'm feeling really good about my new way of eating. The last few months I’ve been following a whole food plant based diet. Not only do I feel great, but my weight has been dropping effortlessly.

@midwesterner85 Thank you for your explanation!
@HeidiCooksSupper LOL I should have been a librarian, I love looking things up!
@brightresolve Sending prayers of healing for your relationship with your daughter. We experienced the same thing several years ago and missed out on a year of our youngest granddaughter’s life.
@DanielleFayeS It may take a couple of days for that Food Fair to show up on the scale.

11/11 152 Oh come on scale! I spent a lot of time working in the kitchen yesterday, baking Keto bagels and pizza crust. Didn’t eat much all day and drank over a gallon of water!
11/12 153 My appetite is almost nothing but after picking up friends at the airport we all went out for pizza. I only ate the toppings. I’m sure this is water but it is still frustrating!
11/13 152.5 Okay with this, think I didn’t drink enough water. (I love that my phone gave me a choice of water, a water drop emoticon, or vodka!)6 -

Here we go again!!! Back in for round 22 (my round 20). I'm proof that this works...trust the process and the weight will come off. It's not all down...lots of ups along the way. This daily check in group has been a huge part of keeping me going. Many thanks to all of you who have been around for the long haul and welcome to the newbies in round 22, you're going to love it here!!
SW - 182.4 in March 2017
GW - 145 - hit this target a couple of rounds ago...now checking in daily as I figure out how to maintain this for the long term
There was an update on my Garmin app last week that has a rolling 7 day average on the home screen. I think that if I keep an eye on this to make sure the number stays in the 145 range I'll be golden!!
11/08 - 145.4 - coming in from round 21
Day/Weight/Comment
11/9: - 144.6 - had a great run yesterday and ate well (probably a bit under maintenance). Looks like we're getting snow tonight so that may have been my last trail run for a while, not sure I'll brave the bluffs in the snow. So I'll be heading to the basement for my workouts in the mean time...elliptical and kettlebells...
11/10: - 144.2 - Lots of steps in the showroom yesterday and a bit of a calorie deficit to give me a buffer for the weekend meals and cocktails. There are 3" of snow on the ground and it's -25C with the wind chill this morning so I put on my workout gear instead of my running gear when I got up this morning. The dog is going to be very disappointed...
11/11: - 144.6 - right where I expected.
11/12: - 146.6 - Wine and salty snacks...but not over 7000 calories worth...so this is mainly water retention. I should see it gone in the next couple of days with lots of water and watching the sodium.
11/13: - 147.2 - I did NOT do a great job of NOT shoving food in my face over the weekend. It's Monday...time to buckle down for a new week. 7 day rolling average is still in the 145's...need to make sure it stays there.

Round 21 EW - 171.4
11/9 - 170.2 - Wow! Well I won't adjust my goal just yet. I didn't feel well yesterday so I didn't eat much. We will see how this holds up tomorrow.
11/10 - 170.4 - Happy with that. Hanging in there. Off to run and lift.
11/11 - 169.4 - Thrilled with these results today.
11/12 - 169.2 - Good stuff! Now if I'm crying tomorrow morning that's on me because I just had two slices of pizza for lunch and man was it good. We will see how it goes.
11/13 - 169.2 - YES! No tears here (reference yesterdays post).

I've decided that I am going to eat at maintenance for 2/7 days a week, which is why I am going to start using my average weight. I want to offset hormonal changes that occur when losing weight for extended periods of time that can make it harder to lose and maintain weight and I'm hoping to alleviate potential emotional stress of constantly being in a deficit. After two rounds of eating at maintenance for 2/7 days not only is my weight lower over the last two rounds, but it's been easier to eat at a deficit on the other days.
Day/Weight/Comment
11/9:--221.1. My trend is downward. Completed W4D2.
11/10:--220.6
11/11:--220.4 Maintenance day today. Going hiking today and later going out for dinner.
11/12:--221.3 Ate at maintenance yesterday. Temporary weight gain.
11/13:--222.8 Note to self, don't primarily eat sugary foods to get up to maintenance calories, your body will not be happy.

I'm in again! Thanks for keeping this going. It's easy to feel we're not progressing or we're slower than everyone else, but seeing the round by round numbers and other people's ups as well as downs is reassuring and inspiring.
11/9 - - 148.6
That's an encouraging start. :-) Weather is on and off, but I'm hoping to sneak in a walk today between rains.
11/10 - 147.2
Woot! I see my internal fat hoarder has finally decided to let go of some of her treasures. About time! I don't expect it to happen again for a while, but that's okay. This will keep me sticking to the plan for the next 7.2 pounds at least!
11/11 - 148.2
I thought yesterday might be a fluke. That's ok. Still moving the right direction and sticking to eating plan.
11/12 - 148.2
Heading out for a long walk - expecting rain later and the rest of the week and big winds tomorrow. Have a lovely Sunday, all!
11/13 - 149
I have no idea - has to be sodium. Bouncy bouncy.
