Day/Weight/Comment
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.
11/14 172.8 again. my weekend weight didn't stick around nearly as long this time. I'll consider it a good sign that things are moving in the right direction.
11/15 171.8 Yeah! Might make it to my goal after all? or close to it? Only 10 lbs heavier than my sister who has been smaller than me my whole life.. not for long
11/16 172.2 been pretty on plan all week, no booze, no extra sugar. say it with me: weight loss is not linear! lol
11/17 172.2 still sitting here. looks like I'm not making my goal of less than 171. however my average this round is 2 lbs less than the last round, so that's a great consolation prize.
11/18 172.2 can't tell if this is part of my downward trend (according to the Libra tracker it is) or if it's a stall. Just gotta keep working the program I guess.
See you next round!7 -

Last day from round 21: 11/8 139.6
11/9 138.8 Yay so happy with this. Off to gym after work again tonight!
11/10 139.4 Oh! I’ve been so good with my eating
Didn’t go gym because of weather but did go on treadmill when I got home. Now to be good for the weekend hmmmmm
11/11 Totally forgot to weigh myself!!!
11/12 139.4 Stayed the same. Surprised after wine and chip shop chips last night.
11/13 139.4 Holding steady. Hope it gets moving, in the right direction, this week!
11/14 139.8 Ok I really need to get a hold of this. Been eating well so I know I’ve got to hit the gym more. Used to do kickboxing but haven’t for over a month due to injury. Put work pants on this morning that I’ve not worn for a year and they feel tight! Trying not to to be to depressed about that as that’s when I eat! What a rollercoaster this bloody weight thing is!!
11/15 138.6 OK so back to 138. Let’s hope it stays this time. Went to gym last night and it felt really good, my goal this week is to go at least 3 times!
11/16 138.8 Gym again today after work.
11/17 140.2 what!!! Anyone else use a Fitbit? Are you eating your exercise calories? Maybe that’s where I’m going wrong! I did got to the gym last night and it felt really good. Let’s hope tomorrow’s weigh in is better and ends on a high.
11/18 138.2 Yes! Ended on a good number. Now to keep it going into the next 10 days.

11/9: 215.4 - I need to set better goals for these rounds. But I also feel like I always fluctuate a lot in the space of ten days, so maybe I won't.
11/10: 213.8 - Crazy drop! Don't expect that it will last.
11/11: No weigh in today - was out with a girlfriend last night and crashed at her place.
11/12: 218.0 - I expected as much. Too much alcohol and TOM on the way. Chugging water hoping it will go down some for my official weigh in tomorrow.
11/13: 216.8 - Getting back down. I think I should definitely get below my goal for this round.
11/14: 215.0 - Back below where I started this round. TOM started today so I expect some more water weight will let go. No time for exercise these days, but still losing with CICO, so I'm doing OK.
11/15: 213.4 - Lowest so far. Was too far under calories last night but also too tired to stay up.
11/16: 212.8 - New low! It's really amazing to watch the weight keep falling off. Ate Chinese food tonight, not very much, and still feel too full.
11/17: 212.8 - Staying put is fine with me.
11/18: 214.6 - I went on a bit of a binge last night. But I'm still finishing this round under goal so I'm pleased! See you all in the next round!

R22 (9th Round for me)
Day/Weight/Comment
11/9 - 186.8
11/10 - Not Weighing. I'm very sick today (storage sick) and so I'm not getting an accurate/realistic reading.
11/11 - 188.8 I was expecting this. I had 2 cheat days where I ate everything (including things I shouldn't have because I know that they make me bloat! Ex. salty food, rice, potatoes, bread etc). I'm back on the wagon today though!!!
11/12 - 189.4 Its starting to look like this might be the very first round where I end higher than I began. I'm very upset at my lack of discipline this week. I'm going to refocus my energy today and see if I can make up for the cheating a little bit.
11/13 - 189.4
11/14 - 189.4
11/15 - 188.2 Much better! Let's hope I can end on an even better number!!!
11/16 - 189.2
11/17 - 188.0
11/18 - 189.6 So I'm REALLY upset with myself. This will be the very first time I've not lost and on top of it I actually re-gained! I'll be honest... I totally considered lying and saying that I couldn't weigh today, but I know that weight loss is not linear and I know I'll look back on this eventually and be totally over it because I'll have lost weight. The scale flashed 190.2 before changing its mind and I was really upset. I need to SMARTEN UP. This time next week the number gonna be different. Promise.

11/15 163.2 Probably a blip because I didn't eat much yesterday. Have been doing a short workout every morning to stay consistent with exercise.

11/18 163.8 Lots of fluctuations this round but beat through stress to keep going and ended just under my goal. Ready for the next round!5 -
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.

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.
11/14 141.6 Went to a 45 dance/exercise class. Got no idea where this number is from.
11/15 141.6 Same ole, same ole. Will be gone for a couple days. Wish me luck.
11/16 Gone, no scale
11/17 141 Another challenge with no progress. I've been in this neighborhood for a long time.

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.
11/14 254.4 -- There we go. Ate at a deficit. Logged everything. Back on the right path because I did not eat after 9 p.m.
11/15 254.0 -- Homemade pizza was still within calories & I did not eat after 9 p.m.
11/16 252.0 -- A nice lowish weight to take to the Dr. He’ll probably still insist I’m doing it wrong. Just cut out junk food, he’ll say. He’ll ask what I had for breakfast and tssk-tssk at my eggs and cheese. He’ll harrumph at calorie counting and say if I just exercise 30 minutes a day I’ll lose weight. I may try to educate him. I did not eat after 9 p.m.
11/17 254.0 -- oops. Take out Chinese + late night snacking. But the Dr. said my a1c is down to 6.0.
11/18 252.8 -- Gack! Old habits die hard. Too much late night snacking and no loss, in fact a pound gain, in this 10-day period.

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.
11/14 - 190.3
11/15 - no scale
11/16 - no scale
11/17 - no scale
10/18 - 194.0
This is not the way I wanted to end this round. I just returned last night from a conference. I expect this is a combination of sodium / water retention and my normal basic bathroom activities being out of whack. However it is still disheartening to step on the scale and see such an increase. I'm telling myself that it will be gone in a few days. I remind myself that I worked in the hotel fitness center every day. So aggravating.7 -
11/9 - 193.8 Went to the gym for weights yesterday. At least it didn't go back up, maybe I've finally broke my 194 plateau.
11/10 - 193.6 Less salt yesterday. Hope I can keep some discipline over the weekend.
11/11 - 193.4 Avoided snacking most of the day, kind of proud of that. Usually my solo days off are a total snackfest.
11/12 - 193 I was hungry a lot yesterday. But I guess I did okay.
11/13 - 193 Food fair at the gardens yesterday, so surprised it didn't tick up but I'll take it.
11/14 - 192.6 I almost believe I'll see 189 by the end of November.
11/15 - 193 Weights at the gym yesterday.
11/16 - 193 Holiday parties begin, had the work Thanksgiving-style party yesterday.
11/17 - 193.6 Went swimming yesterday. It's weird I feel less bloated today.
11/18 - 193 Guess I just live here now. Also gym for weights yesterday. 5 -

Round 22 Goal Weight 169
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).
11/14 - 168.4 - Very happy with this number. Met my round 22 goal so now I just need to hang on or a bit more of a loss would be great too.
11/15 - 168.2 - completely satisfied with that number.
11/16 - 168.0 - Every little bit counts!
11/17 - 168.0 - Holding steady!
11/18 - 169.2 - Not thrilled with the results but I didn't do everything I should have. Drank zero water yesterday and only ran twice this week. I did lift three times but it wasn't enough.
Lost 2.2 pounds this round.

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.
11/14:--222.2 I will take it. Had no power yesterday evening and ended up having to go out to eat an unplanned dinner which included unplanned extra calories and sodium.
11/15:--220.6 There goes the water weight.
11/16:--220.6 Trend still downward
11/17:--219.5 Weighed twice to make sure. Lowest trend in a year.
11/18:--219.5 Another great round. Completed W4D3 last night. Today is maintenance/refeed. Going to a kettlebell intro class today. On to the next round!
R22 Average Weight--220.8 -1.5 from last round.

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)
11/14 - 142.2 - yep, bounce. under calories yesterday, planned for no workout.
11/15 - 140.8 - no workout yesterday planned, a trice over calories (unplanned) But this is how it goes, I know I will rebound from this REALLY NICE NUMBER but it sure is good to see.
11/16 - 140.2 - 35 min burn on elliptical and under calories. Lovin' the drop, but not attached because I know I will rebound some. It's just evidence that the system in place is working
11/17 - 140.6 - 3 mile run yesterday and under calories. Really enjoying this daily accountability site!
11/18 - 141.2 - headache all day yesterday, 25 minute ball and band workout all I managed, over calories a smidge but still under maintenance. Rebound was expected.
Very happy with my loss this round
Working out harder the last 10 days and feeling very tired, like workday and workout and food and sleep is all I can manage. Hoping this will stabilize next round.

11/10 - 154.8lbs... Enjoyed a nice steak dinner with the family, worth the gain! I anticipate my number will go up this weekend as it’s my annual girls weekend away. Lots of shopping, wine and chocolate!
11/11 - away ~ no scale!

@cisos Search for “Just Give Me” and look for round 23. Starts 11/19
@ehseeker I feel I’m stuck again, too. What does your graph show? I seem to get stuck then drop a couple and stick again.
@junodog1 Travel always messes with my normal bathroom activity. Even though I’m doing low carb, I allowed myself Raisin Bran the first 2 cruise days. I actually only ate one and was good to “go” for the week. Can’t tell you how many years it took me to figure that out but it works for me!3 -
My first challenge - only saw it yesterday so am starting today instead.
I am also doing weight training twice a week and aiming to lose slow and steady to ensure its fat loss and not muscle loss! Anyway here goes ...
R22 start - 151.4
Target for end of R22 - to be under 150.0
11/9
Went to the gym for an hours GVT session with my PT - my legs and shoulders ache!!
11/10 151.40
not massively impressed with myself but have to start somewhere...... Good food day planned
11/11 150.00
WOW! Felt I had a good day yesterday food wise and walked 12,460 on my fitbit and felt i was back on track. Even managed to contain myself at our Brownie camp fire evening and only have a few toasted marshmallows and no full on smores! Under no illusions will carry on losing at this rate but will enjoy the feeling and hopefully it will keep me motivated over the weekend which is always a toughie!
11/12 149.9
will take that happily! Didn't do much walking today - day doing tasks like housework and ironing - but out for a bike ride today so will sneak in a bacon sarnie as planning a 45 mile ride!
11/13 150.20
hhhmmm. + 0.30 ???? ended doing a 58 mile road bike ride yesterday too!! Only had a bowl of porridge before the ride, a bacon sarnie at out cafe stop and a flapjack Can only put it down to the fact that I did have a pretty large dinner last night (needed it after my ride) full Sunday roast and included a homemade apple crumble and I don't usually have dessert. Won't let it phase me - a good food day set up for today though and a short 12 mile ride tonight to loosen up my legs - so its all good
11/14 148.00!!!
go figure? But very happy! Can't believe how much weight can vary day to day!! Was obviously a big serving of apple crumble on Sunday!! I did do another 12 mile bike ride yesterday evening to loosen up my stiff legs after Sunday. Off to the gym tonight for PT session. Will be more than happy to maintain this weight for a few days and finish off the round at this weight - maybe 147.5??
11/15 147.7
ache from gym a bit last night (pyramid training session!) - and a happy scale day
Interesting that I have upped my calories slightly this week - weight had stuck for a while so joined this challenge and upped my calorie goal by 200 a day - all good so far!! Weight is all in the right direction - 3.7 lbs since the start of the challenge - would love end of R22 to be 147.50
11/16 146.9
-0.80 lbs. Cant believe I am eating more and the weight is falling off me this week! Feel so much better too. This week has been a revelation to me..... Rest day yesterday from the gym / bike - back to the gym tonight. And I have signed up for a London to Paris bike ride next September!! All that training will mean extra bacon sarnies for me too
11/17 146.6
another 0.3 lbs gone! This has probably been one of my best weeks ever - definitely going to stick to the higher calories each day - and will defo do R23 - maybe the daily posts is what keeps me motivated and accountable to myself ??? Whatever it is I am will carry on (although no long bike ride this weekend - daughters have too many cheer commitments!), Last day tomorrow so really don't want to put anything on - good food day planned so no reason why I should
11/18 - 145.8
-0.80 lbs. Wow - in my wildest dreams I never expected to finish anywhere near this sot of weight - amazing what some extra calories can do! Wanted to be under 150 ..... Bring on the next round.......

11/9 152.5 Well, is this my new “stuck point?”
11/10 151.5 Come on now, down, down, down...
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!)
11/14 152.5 again
11/15 153 Groan! Just home from art quilt holiday potluck. Made good choices but had to toss fruit that had been sugared. Accidentally erased all info from my earlier posts. Will search back to restore! Whoo, thank goodness.
11/16 152.5 Community Thanksgiving potluck tonight. I can do this!
11/17 152 One of the neighbors asked if I had lost weight! Best feeling ever!!! Second potluck in as many days. Passed on sugared up fruit salads but got some “virgin” berries, skipped the rolls, mashed potatoes, mega sweetened sweet potatoes, etc. Got some naked green beans and the squash au gratin which I brought as well as some ham and turkey. My splurge was about 4 oz of spiked egg nog. I was lacking water!!

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.
11/14 - 148.6
This is good, since I went over by a couple hundred calories yesterday and my sodium was higher than normal. My exercise is on again, off again, because of cold rain. I need to find an indoor option, but don't want to join a gym as we're moving in a few months. Maybe jumping jacks in my bedroom!
11/15 - 148.6
I was on target yesterday, so I guess this is from the day before. I'm trying to take the long view, but I'm feeling a bit frustrated at the moment. Sigh.
11/16 - 148.6
Okay then. I was on target yesterday and my average the past week is on target, so ppffftttttt.
11/17 - 148
Good. I'm experimenting with lower carb and higher fat - not extreme, just a nudge - to see what happens. Remains to be seen what the long-term effect is on weight loss, but I will say that I'm not as hungry!
11/18 - 148
Down a pound since R21 - yay! If I can lose a .5-1 pound every round, I'll be a happy camper. :-)

I completed my first round for round 22 and was very happy with my progress. My SW for Round 21 was 121.8 and EW was 119.6. My goal for this round is to get to 118.5. (I'm 5'1, my goal weight is around 115). This would bring me to 30 lbs down from my highest.

11/16: 119.2- I don't think that I'm going to make my goal this round, but my average weight for this round is trending lower. Last round's average weight was 121.1 while this round's is trending 120.0
11/17: 119.4- I had a ton of salt yesterday so I feel like I dodged a bullet here. I'll be happy if I can stay around here around Thanksgiving.
11/18: 118.8- yay! Good ending! I averaged 119.8 this round, which was a 1.3 lbs less than last round.3 -
