Day/Weight/Comment
2/27- 206 did over 16k steps and have started a new healthy eating regime. Preprepped every meal for the week. Let’s see how it goes.
2/28- 208.2 I didn’t eat my prepped meal for lunch. Went for sushi with a friend. Nervous to see how this will effect the scale. So now I see I gained again. Really disappointed in myself and might have to step back for meeting friends for meals completely.
3/1- 207.2 struggled with motivation today and then ate a bunch Of Girl Scout cookies at a friends house. Made myself work out again after I got home at 1am to work the cookies off.
3/2- 207.4. Exercised. Met a friend for lunch. Made a good decision and got a salad. Met an ex for dinner. And we had ramen, but it was pretty healthy. However then we made cookies and I enjoyed them. Nearly overate though because I realized I missed him. Also realized the prepped meals I made are not tasty or a real long term solution, so need to rethink eating habits.
3/3- 210. Was embarrassed to post this. Feel ashamed of myself for not being able to commit to eating better. I keep emotionally eating. Seeing my ex brought back all the old feelings and I’m really struggling now.

Get back under 170!!! [/b]

End of Round 32
25/02: 172.6 Holiday gain! No scale available and a week of the high life had consequences. Travelling all day yesterday, so poor hydration and high sodium in food will have pushed this up due to water retention.
26/02: 170.8 Goals ✅ Hydration still iffy yesterday. Today will be better. Hoping to start Round 33 below 170

Round 33 (Round 26 for me. Female, 5'2" aged 71, weight in lbs) GW: 168
27/02: 170.0 Goals ✅ It's difficult to get back into a routine after vacation. But it has to be done.
28/02: 168.2 Goals ✅ Phew! Getting there!

SW: 90kg | GW: 57-59kg

Daily Goals: Average 1300 calories | 2L water

R32 EW: 64.2kg

02/27 - 63.3kg (-0.8kg)- Major whoosh overnight.
I guess it's to be expected after a heavy weekend. Considering changing my GW for this round but also know it's gonna be TOM so not sure. Calories and water on target yesterday. Plus I invented an amazing new low-cal, high-protein, DELICIOUS choc orange puddingy thing for dessert

02/28 - 62.8kg (-0.5kg) - Wow, another whoosh.
I've got the cold so maybe it's dehydration? Or maybe the hard work I never saw the result of last round is finally kicking in... Fingers crossed for the second. Already past my goal weight for this round and only 300g off my revised goal!
03/01 - 62.9kg (+0.1) - YES! The loss is holding.
Tiny bump but whatever. I meal prepped on Sunday and took all my food to work. Then the snow came and now I'm working from home so all my good food is sitting 15 miles away in a communal fridge! Going to face the blizzard today to get some healthy stuff to avoid the trash my partner keeps in the house. Yesterday was hard work without my planned meals - I don't know how people manage to stay within their calories without prepping and planning!
03/02 - 62.5kg (-0.5kg) - Down down down!
Really feeling like I am making progress which is great. This is the lightest I've been in my adult life AND the closest I've been to goal weight, only 3.5kg to go. These 10 day challenges are amazing to keep focused, thank you all so much! Revising my goal weight for the round again. Looking forward to a big salty dinner tonight so not expecting the scale to be pretty tomorrow!
03/03 - 62.8kg (+0.3kg) - Expected bump, happy to still be under 63kg. Had a treat dinner and a couple of wines last night. Very enjoyable

plus I closed off my diary on a Friday for the first time in... well, maybe ever haha. Winning.

03/04 - 63.5kg (+0.7kg) - It's a pizza and samosa baby!
I had a bit of a blow out late last night after the pub (oops) and was NOT looking forward to the scale this morning. Carbs and salt, that's all it is. TOM arrived as well. Happy though that my weekend high is still lower than my EW for last round

Back on the wagon today and will be working hard to finish the round at about 62.5kg.

03/02 279.9 33.2% BF / Up a tad but wasn't too good yesterday with food hate business meetings over lunch
03/03 278.7 33.9% BF / Moved down which is good starting to not believe my scales BF reading much but guess average over the week is better tracking another Strength day of weights and some cardo at the end hoping weather stays good going for a hike

R30 SW 184.6
R31 SW 183.6
R32 SW 182.2 EW 179.8

02/27 181.0 Expected! Ate way over calories yesterday, no workout, and had a strawberry mojito! Back to the grind today. Ready to be out of the 180s for good!

02/28 180.4 Jogged 3 miles, chest, triceps, and abs. Was slightly under calories and drank 8 cups of water. I love water, but I find it difficult to drink more than 8 cups throughout the day. Working on it!

03/01 178.8 Slightly under calories. Light cardio and upper body workout.

03/02 176.2 Interesting. I did intervals on the treadmill and legs last night and ate back some of the calories.

03/03 176.4 Rest day. Logged everything and ate all of my calories.

03/04 175.6 Jogged 5K at the park as practice for my first official 5K next Saturday. It was a struggle, but I made it. Didn't quite meet calorie goal. I'm noticing a pattern of 2-3 weeks of slow losses followed by a week of a big loss. I can dig it!

R31: 137.0
R32: 138.0
GW: 130.0

Goal for this round: diet break/maintenance 3/1-3/14

2/27: 135.8 - so I’m planning my second diet break this week. I’ve been waiting 12 weeks for this and I’m so excited. I really think it will help renew and recharge me.
2/28: 136.0 - great day yesterday: did day 2 of couch to 5k without stopping, felt really good, then ate a huge salty dinner within my calorie goal

3/1: 136.2 - day 1 of diet break. I’m honestly not sure how many calories to shoot for. Should be interesting!
3/2: 136.6 - finished week 1 of couch to 5k. Felt great at the time but I’m a little sore this morning. I’m still worried I’m overeating but I guess time will tell.
3/3: 136.0 - fish fry/rest day yesterday. Went over my made up maintenance by 400. Oops?
3/4: 137.8 - idk what’s happening with my weight. I’m starting to think weighing daily during a diet break isn’t a good idea. I might skip round 34. Anyway, yesterday I did a little yoga, and then went with husband and kids to a tour of our local Major League Baseball stadium. It was really cool and we got to go on the field and into the dugout! Then we had a yummy and highly caloric dinner at Burger Fi! Great day.

Do NOT be embarrassed to post on the bad days. THAT is exactly what we are here for! We support one another in this lifestyle change. We do not judge and we encourage you not to judge yourself. Don't beat yourself up. Just begin anew right now. That's the beauty of MyFitnessPal. You can always start fresh.

As for you not being happy with your meals, I don't know what you've tried, but Skinnytaste.com has endless ideas for entrees, sides, and even desserts if you want them that are relatively healthy, calorie-controlled, and most important, easy to LOG. I use her recipes frequently. But what else I have learned so far is, if I buy fish or lean meats (pork chop, chicken, even lean cuts of beef) I can prepare them in a little olive oil or sprays of Pam with seasonings and lose weight easily eating those. I have gotten to the point that when I do eat out, I don't even want the heavily sauced, calorie-laden items any more.

2/27 = 161.6 Got in a 4-mi fast walk in the neighborhood yesterday and ate smart too. This is the lowest weight I’ve been since probably before children (28 years ago)! Headed to Florida at the end of this round, and I so want to be in the 150s by then. Fingers crossed!
2/28 = 161.6
3/1 = 162.4 Was in a car wreck on 2/27 and all I did yesterday was rest in the recliner. Ate ok, but exercise is so important for me to be able to lose weight. Hopefully, I’ll be able to get in a walk today.
3/2 = 161.8 Was able to walk on the treadmill after work yesterday.
3/3 = 160.8 Headed in the right direction!
3/4 = 159.6 This is SUCH a milestone for me! I don’t even remember being in the 150s since I met my husband in 1983. I just want this trend to continue!

Here we go again! I had a rough round last time...who am I kidding?!?!...I had a rough February, my least favourite month....between the blahs and the crazy hormone swings I truly believe that coming in to check in here every day is what kept me from going completely off the rails. March is just around the corner which gives me hope that I'll be able to get out running on the trails again soon once the snow and ice are gone and I won't be stuck working out in the basement.

SW - 182.4 - March 2017
Original GW - 145 - hit this in October 2017 and maintained around 143 up to Januaryish
New GW - 140 or below...I know I can do it!!

2/26 - 147.6 - this is the highest I've been in ages and I know it stems from poor food choices and some whacky peri-menopausal hormone water retention

Day/Weight/Comment
2/27 - 145.6 - literally flushed away 2lbs of water weight yesterday LOL...I logged every bit of food I put in my mouth and got in a good walk with the dog and a kettlebell workout...was a great day and really motivating to feel in control of things.
2/28 - 143.0 - continued "flushing" yesterday...GOODBYE FEBRUARY!!! I'm moving onwards and downwards!!!
3/1 - 143.2 - no more flushing...now we get down to business. NSV yesterday...on a whim I tried on a pair of size 6 jeans because they didn't have and 8...and they FIT!!! Had to buy them, at least they were from the clearance rack so double score

3/2 - 143.0 - feeling great about this week so far...in control and motivated.
3/3 - 142.6 - worked a cocktail and some wine into my calorie deficit last night...smaller deficit but still on track...I don't need these last few pounds off quickly so I think enjoying some reasonable treats on the weekend is a great reward for sticking to the plan through the week.
3/4 - 143.4 - TOM arrived....more horormones

Started last round at 144 and ended on 2/26 at 143. My goal for this round is to lose another pound. Creeping slowly toward goal.

Day/Weight/Comment

2/27.. 142.4 Not sure about this drop. 45 min on ellip yesterday. Hopefully gym today. Got my car back!
2/28... 142.6 Got to gym yesterday. This slight gain might be water in muscles. Gonna fix me a stir fry orggie curry today. Haha, meant veggies. It will be an orgie of veggies. Have a great hump day.
3/1...143.4 Grrrrr I let a family situation get to me and had a few glasses of wine. Is that why? 50 on ellip again.
3/2143.4... Took a lovely 45 minute stroll in the drizzle yesterday. Ate decent but no enchilada on the weight loss.
3/3..142.6 This is a surprise as I ate ham for dinner and expected water gain. The ham was great and so is the drop.
Happy Saturday to all.Enjoy your day. Do something just for you.

3/4..143.4 Had great workout yesterday at gym. It felt so good to challenge myself. More ham. It's so good. Today, salad and chicken breast. Elliptical or pool workout. half way through and haven't lost. gained. blah.
