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.
11/14: 164.5 In a holding pattern. Dental work yesterday... but managed to get my workout in and walk the dog. Didn't quite make my steps and really did not get enough water.
11/15: 164.9 Not the direction I want to be heading. Cold rain and dark evenings got me down... it always takes me a couple of weeks to adjust to this time change.
11/16: 165 And there it is. I know why this is happening... my diet is just too carbohydrate-rich right now. The only thing that is not keeping me from gaining at a faster rate is the hour of exercise I do each day. Last night I got home and said, "I'm not gonna do my workout, I am too tired..." but then I did.
So, need to be mindful of food so it all comes together!
11/17: 163 So, did not get a chance to exercise yesterday. Crazy busy with meetings at work, son's band concert until 8:30, and went to bed at 9! Looking forward to the week off next week.
11/18: 164.1 Well, ended .4 down from end of last round. This round was a rollercoaster. Kind of like being the parent of teenagers... up, then down, then up, then down! Cleaned out my closet this morning and am just a few pounds away from things fitting again, so going to keep at it!6 -
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 EW 166.5 LW 164.5
R21 EW 164.0 LW 163.0Round 21 (previous round)
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.

11/06: 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.

11/11: 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.

11/18: 162.0 Another surprise...maybe this was why I felt hungry. Net calories -48, sodium green & 12c water. Walked dog 3.09 miles. Fitbit 15,280 steps, 250+ steps 14/14 hours (boom) & 44 floors.6 -
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.

Goal This Round: Average lower than 115.5 lbs & try to see 114
11/9 - 116 - Ran 3.5 miles & lifted weights this morning. Traveling but brought my scale. 1650 cal.
11/10 - 115 - Ran 3.5 miles & lifted weights this morning. Being more strict while traveling paid off. I just ate a lot of salad & fruit the last couple days. 1650 cal.
11/11 - 114 - Played 3 sets of tennis this morning. A new low. I can’t believe how easily my body is letting go of this weight. 1500 cal.
11/12 - 115 - Played 3 sets of tennis this morning. 1600 cal.
11/13 - 115 - Ran 3.5 miles & lifted weights this morning. Traveling but brought my scale. 1450 cal.
11/14 - 115 - Ran 3.5 miles & lifted weights this morning. Traveling but brought my scale. 1650 cal.
11/15 - 115 - Ran 3.5 miles & lifted weights this morning. Traveling but brought my scale. 1650 cal
11/16 - 114 - Ran 3.5 miles & lifted weights this morning. Traveling but brought my scale. These last few days of traveling with free unhealthy food offerings would have derailed me in the past. But with my whole food plant based diet, for the first time in my life, I feel 100% in control. It’s a great feeling. 1800 cal. 2 servings of alcohol.
11/17 - 115 - Ran 3.5 miles & lifted weights this morning. 2200 cal. 4 servings of alcohol. Celebrated my husband’s birthday.
11/18 - 116 - Played 2 sets of tennis this morning. This was a challenging round with traveling for work for 6 days. When I wasn’t traveling, it was the weekend as well as celebrating my husband’s birthday which involved dessert and alcohol. I had no normal routine days during this round. So I’m happy that I was able to meet my goal.
Average: 115 - Yay, I met my goal for this round7 -

Day/Weight/Comment
11/9 - 246.2 - I felt pretty good about yesterday. Got my exercise in, ate within my calories. Glad the scale reflected that!
11/10 - 244.0 - Finally making progress again! Woo!!
11/11 - 243.2 - Got a lot of sleep last night. Trying to get over this cold! Today I'm going to try out some keto recipes to see if that might work for me.
11/12 - 242.0 - Really pleased with the progress I'm making. Maybe I can be in the 230s by the end of this challenge. That would be awesome!
11/13 - 240.2 - Woo! I will be in the 230s, I can feel it!
11/14 - 240.8 - A little bit of gain, but I still pretty good!
11/15 - 240.6 - Last night we had a nurse come over to take blood for our life insurance. Because it was a little late and my arm was a little sore, I decided to make last night a rest night and I didn't exercise. I still had my 10k steps, though! So, I feel pretty good about the very small loss. At least it wasn't a gain! I know tomorrow is going to be a loss, I fee my determination. Tomorrow, I WILL be in the 230s!
11/16 - 241.2 - So, yesterday took a bit of a turn. We had a few hours kid-free, so we got fast food. But, I did Tuesday and Wednesday's workouts to try to make up for it. Based on how many calories I ate yesterday, I'm pretty pleased that my gain was only 0.6 lbs. Today I already have everything all planned out and nothing weird is happening in the evening. Should be an easy day to stay on track!
11/17 - 239.6 - WOO!! I made it to the 230s! I had a sort-of goal to be 235 by Thanksgiving. Now that it's much closer to possible, I think I'm going to really push myself to try to achieve it!
11/18 - 241.2 - Ugh, self sabotage. I go through phases of feeling burnt out on working it and I'm in one now. I need to work through it though!6 -

My goodness, the time slipped up on me! I didn't realize that it was the start of round 22 already! Anyway, I ended this round lighter than I started. So without farther ado, it's on to the next goal! I've got plenty more weight I need to discard! To say I lost it indicates it was a mistake, but when I say I discarded it, everyone knows I did it on purpose!
11/10: 213.5
Got on up this morning and went to exercise. Changing up my routine to include the elliptical. I want to start weight training, but I think that will me one of my targets for the New Year! If I can make it through Thanksgiving and Christmas and still come out no more than 205 lbs., I will consider it a super victory! That's my plan anyway! Got to increase the exercise; that's for sure!
11/11: 212.7
11/12: 213.8
Didn't realize I forgot to post my weight yesterday; spent the last hour looking for yesterday's post to copy! Took me a while of going back and forth to realize it just wasn't there!
I've never done that before. I worked yesterday, and it's been a while since I worked on a Saturday. I will start on my 2 week vacation on the 19th, so I've been trying to make a little extra spending money! 
Will be working more hours next week too, but not on Saturday!
11/13: 213.4
Had a bad night last night trying to get used to my C-Pap machine! It fit great the first two nights, but last night it was so uncomfortable. I was so tired this morning, I didn't get up until it was almost time for me to go to work. We are really getting busy now - back to back phone calls - and it's not even black Friday yet. Thank God I won't be working Black Friday; I'll still be on vacation.
11/14: 213.2
Slept good! Got my exercise in! Seem to be having trouble getting my 12 glasses of water in each day! I think the time change threw me off!
11/15: 214.1
11/16: 213.8
11/17: Forgot to weigh!!!
11/18: 215.5
Don't know what's happening? Missed a couple of exercise sessions this week, and had a couple (3) functions that involved eating out, but I thought I handled them well. At the church Thanksgiving potluck, everything I ate was low carb except 1 small piece of pecan pie! At the monthly ladies meeting, I only ate meat and cheese except for 1 small piece of pumpkin coffee cake! Last but not least, at small group I ate greens, chopped steak w/o gravy, and deviled eggs! I am practicing self control for Thanksgiving dinner! No matter, I still plan on moderate eating during the holidays! On to round 23!!

Days without binge eating: 97 -
Yay! Another round!! Thank you so much for keeping this going @cyranda63!
At first I was unsure how I would feel about recording my weight every day. Turns out, I am actually less affected by the fluctuations than I thought I would be. I learned that results of good (and bad) behavior can take several days to see, and focusing on the averages from round to round is very rewarding!
Let's kick MOVEmber into high gear!!

11/11: 153.8 You mean apple pie isn't considered a fruit?!?!
11/12: 155.2 (shhh...our little secret!) First 2000+ calorie day in about five months. Very proud of the effort I have put in.
11/13: 154.2 Weekend food fest is over. Back in the saddle!

Disappointed because it's higher than yesterday, but looking at the loss from the beginning of the last round makes me realize I'm still making progress. I get impatient, have to remember this is a slow journey. Didn't feel great today, headachy and tired. Fine day for calories, water.
11/10: 163.0
Had a day off for the Veteran's Day holiday, it was nice. Went out to eat but stayed in my calories, bought an outfit for a dinner party that's a few week away, size 14s I tried on were too big. (Wound up getting something size "L" so no big victory size story.) Good on water, got some exercise.
11/11: 164.0
OK, so this seems to be my current loop. I was on my feet a lot today for a work event. Not too strenuous, just a lot of standing. A perfectly beautiful day to be outside. Ate at my goal calories, lots of veggies, good on protein. I'll get to my water goal by bedtime.
11/12: 162.0
I expect to be up tomorrow, I went out for a nice dinner that I could tell had a lot of sodium and I'm low on water for the day. I ate dinner out four times in the last week but stayed in my calories each time.
11/13: 162.5
Not too bad, considering last night's dinner. I did almost everything right today, really trying for a bump down tomorrow. I first saw 162 a week ago today and I've pinged it a few times now. Would love to see 161, that'll be 40lbs from my heaviest ever. I usually don't set goals for these 10-day challenges but that's my new goal for this round - a solid 161 and a milestone.
11/14: 161.0
Woot! 40 lbs down from my highest, which was in summer of 2012. Honestly, I was probably up to closer to 210 before I started losing, but I wasn't weighing so that's the highest I ever saw. I lost 30, then gained back and was up to 201 again by the spring of 2015. Going to keep going this time. My next mini goal is 159, which at my height is a "normal" BMI. I don't expect it this round, I'm sure I'll be up and down as usual.
11/15: 161.5
Still happy with this. Fine day on all counts, if I can drink a bit more water before bed. Good on calories, protein, veggies, exercise, no added sugar, I even went to bed on time last night. Just realized I broke my rule and ate after 8pm but still OK. Work thing tomorrow evening, grant me strength to steer clear of the cheese trays.
11/16: 161.5
I'll be above this tomorrow, darn it. Because cheese.
11/17: 161.5
Got away with snacking yesterday, let's see how pizza for lunch AND dinner shows up tomorrow. At least I turned down the cake at the baby shower today. I was still within my calorie goals both days, but sodium could have an impact. Good on water, protein, veggies today.
11/18: 162.5
Well deserved. I had a good day today for water, protein, veggies, exercise, etc. Looking forward to the next round.5 -
Well, I had a bad week of maintaining goals because of an auto accident. In addition, my pelvic girdle pain is becoming more constant, I’m scaling back almost entirely on walks and starting in the pool this week.
R19 SW 158.9
R20 SW 156.2
R21 SW 162
R22 SW 159.5
Pregnant & gaining average 1lb per week. Goals: hydration, vitamins, balanced macros, toning exercise daily.
11/9 159.5 surprised myself with great macros & nutrients. Added organic pomegranate juice to my water, some flavour & vitamins. Sore pelvis from a little activity- went pretty much straight to bed after a short mall excursion. Sigh.
11/10 160.7 So tired. Went out to socialize. Toning exercise? Ha.
11/11
11/12 162.4 can’t handle full meals anymore. Trying to eat more often, but remembering to snack instead of nap is hard work.
11/13
11/14 158.3 added more sugar to the diet and iron pills, energy had levelled up again. The weight seems almost like my scale is a jokester- my body composition has definitely changed.
11/15 160.5 We had 15cm of snow today. With a double-wide driveway to shovel, that counts as toning exercise.
11/16 163.8 Holy growth trend. Is this finally it - nothing but up now? More snow today, more shovelling.
11/17 161.7 maybe not a growth trend. It’s actually nice to be taking this slow, and since I’ve cut out most activity the last two weeks, I could be on just a muscle-loss/fattening trend without bump growth.
11/18 161.1 on my feet all day moving furniture & the new wood flooring packages for the house. Low on protein, but also low sugar and really high fibre. Saw stars at the dog park, need to remember to pack water and some sweets with me everywhere now, don’t want to chance fainting. I can’t believe I have gone 4 rounds now! Average up only +2 over 40 days. Maybe my doc was right and I’ll have one big jump in the next 6 weeks; this has been much less weight gain than expected even when I’m become less active.

Round 21 ended with 156.8.
Day/Weight/Comment
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.
11/13 157.6
11/14 158.2 Yikes! I'm going the wrong way! I dieted successfully yesterday, and got more exercise!!! Must be the buildup of the last few days............
11/15 156.2 Yay! Dieted pretty well, yesterday, only a tad over.

late joiner for R22, but did 2 rounds earlier this year.
R14: start 61.3
R15: start 60.9
R22: start 60.5 - goal 59.9 would be great!
Day/Weight/Comment
11/13 - 60.5
11/14 - 60.0 - good diet, proteins at lunch, an apple as snack, salad (with bread) in the evening
11/15 - 59.6 - Yoopeee! It's been a long time since I saw a 5 at the beginning of my weight! Ran 6km on the treadmill yesterday, ate well (proteins at lunch, apple snack, salad in the evening) Hope to keep the weight as long as possible and even go lower!
11/16 - 59.1 - This is so strange! 1.4kg in 3 days does not look a healthy, but I ate well and did not starve myself at all. Probably it's all the time that I worked at 60 kg that did not drop at all, but I am super happy to stick to the 59s!
11/17 - 60.1 - Strange again! Maybe yesterday I eliminated a lot of water through sweating and now I am back
11/18 - 60.2
-0.3 in this round. Still good. Hope to stick to 59s in the next round.4 -

Day/Weight/Comment
11/9- 150.26 Well that is a depressing way to start off this round. No time to dwell though, so I'll just keep chugging along and hope tomorrow is better.
11/10-150.7 Even more weight gain. So frustrating. Hopefully this doesn't become a trend.
11/11-149.6 So thankful to see the weight going back down. Hoping to fit in a walk today.
11/12---Was running late today so no weight. Managed 3.5 miles yesterday, but went out for drinks last night. Hoping tomorrow's weight isn't too cringe worthy. lol
11/13- 148.06 Checked the scale more than once to verify I wasn't seeing things. I am guessing this might go back up a bit since it was such a big drop. Managed 1.5 miles today, but still went over on calories by about 100.
11/14- 148.06 Two days in a row at this weight. Can't believe it. I truly thought yesterday was a mistake. I am down 15 lbs. since I started. I would love to make it to 20 by Christmas.
11/15-149.16 Weight went the wrong way today but still lower than the beginning of the week. I've been running errands this morning, which entailed lots of walking. I hope to get a measured walk in as well today.
11/16- 148.94
11/17- 148.72 Love that my weight is creeping back down again. I'm meeting a friend for coffee and plan to walk to the shop. That will give me right about 1.5 miles.
11/18-148.94 Same weight as the start of the challenge. Trying not to get too bummed, but I must admit it is disheartening. Hoping for great things next round.

11/9 - 161.3 It's been a bit of a struggle to get my stuff together. Need to get back to planning and getting to the grocery store and getting my steps in (walks). That is my key to success...
11/10 - 163. Get it together K ... Get it together!!
11/11 - 164.4
11/12 - 163.7
11/13 - 162.9 I'm getting there. Uggggh
11/14 - 161.4 Better!! Lunch packed, dinner planned out. I will go for my lunch time walk, but still need to get a few extra steps in. It is stormy here lots and lots of rain and the wind is expected hope the power holds!!
11/15 - 160.4 ... Got 11,500 steps in. Have a packed lunch, will go for a walk at lunch and planned dinner. Invited to one of those 'home parties' tonight so there will be a lot of sitting and a little snacking. Need to find a way to get those steps in. Goal to get 11,500 steps in.
11/16 - 160.4 ... (12.452) steps. Could have been a loss but I had a couple of brownies. Looking forward to those 5's again. Have a party this weekend and the possibility of SO coming home soon. Things are looking more challenging, but I expected that for this time of year. If I hang out in the low 60's and any 50's until Janurary I consider myself doing well. Goal today is to get those steps in 11,500-12.000+.
11/17 - 159.6 (16,919) Found a spot for my treadmill, hooray!! Outdoors is more my thing, but I haven't been near as active since these dark, wet, dreary nights have started. Happy to see a 5.

11/18 161 this has been a tough 10 days….sprained ankle, skinned up knee, cold also and just plain feeling miserable and didn’t finish tracking calories most of the last 5 days for sure. My ankle still isn’t healed and it wasn’t that bad of a sprain, I just want to get more active…..whine, whine, whine…sorry about that folks.
I am so glad that I found these challenges, that got me back to tracking/logging food and calories and more aware….THANKS and I plan to move onto the next round and certainly hope for better from myself!

Well, I didn't post like I hoped to this time. I got behind in reading other posts and then just never caught up. I kept wanting to read others before I posted my own, but that never happened. Just a lot going on at work. Work parties made weight fluctuate more than I wanted, but at least I came down from my high 227.8 this week. Hopefully the next 10 days will show me lose a little, or at least keep off what I've lost. Today is Nov. 19 and I was 223.8 when I weighed today. My goal is to not gain back over Thanksgiving. 5 -

11/09 - 144.8/Went out for dinner today. Had to estimate calories. Also eating out and drinking tomorrow.
11/10 - 145.2/It happens. I had quite a few drinks and unable to properly log today.
11/11 - 144.6/Well, that's a nice number. Ate under calories today. Brunch and drinks happening tomorrow...
11/12 - 145.8/How the cookie crumbles. Ate poorly today...brunch, mimosa, desserts and movie popcorn.
11/13 - 145.0/Surprised it went down. Ate 200 over calories today but still under maintenance.
11/14 - 145.2/Seeing the 144s again this round may be difficult. Today was fine (not enough protein though). I did the first workout from Strong (updated version of New Rules of Lifting for Women). Have a bunch of food-related events coming up that I know will derail my eating efforts that I cannot avoid. Usually there's one or two social events that I can manage and lose weight but with the holidays, it is jam packed!
11/15 - 144.4/Well, that was a surprise. Ate within calories and went swimming. Bracing myself for unhealthy food situations coming up this weekend.
11/16 - 143.8/Super nice to see but it's not here to stay. Ate two slices of pizza, M&Ms and a lot of tasting as I baked for the dessert potluck tomorrow. Did second workout from Strong. Did not like it as much. The moves didn't seem natural.
11/17 - 144.4/So much food...
