    Goal for this round. Honestly, I just don’t know. I still won’t have a kitchen that is functional for another 2-3 weeks. I’m hoping I can shave off a little, but with eating out so much, I should be happy to maintain. But I’m NOT happy to just maintain because I'm only 5-6 pounds from a "Normal" BMI, so let’s try for a small loss. 154.x


    Day/Weight/Comment
    Rd 36 EW = 156.6

    4/8 = 155.4 Starting off with a sizable loss. Yay! Now if I can keep it going this round.
    4/9 = 154 I’m sure there will be a bounce, but I’m excited about this!
    4/10 = 154.8 This always happens when I lose 2-3 pounds in a day or two. As long as the trend remains falling, I don’t worry about it.
    4/11 = 155.8 Well, that’s discouraging, but it happens. It wasn’t based on what I ate, so hopefully it won’t stay long.
    4/12 = 155.4 Here we go!

    Round 37 start weight - 139.20

    Loss to date - 12.20 lbs
    Avg loss per round - 0.81 lbs

    R37 goals - To stay on track - hopefully home this week - been away too much recently. Harder than normal as kids still off on Easter holidays this week so work days and hours all over the place. Would like to be back down to 137-ish by the end of this round.

    4/8 - DNW - unplanned night away again
    4/9 - 139.60 +0.40lb - usual "slightly up" Monday morning post Sunday roast dinner - but on a plus note my Monday highs are a lot lower than they used to be :wink: At work all day today so all food prepped and planned and will be easy to drink plenty of water but not home till late so exercise opportunities are nil for today other than a quick lunchtime walk if the rain stops!

    4/10 - 140.00 + .40lb ???? Woke up feeling very bloated this morning - food was all good yesterday and in maintenance calories. Having been away for 7 nights over the last 10 and in a car for two days, I needed a day to refuel my body with plenty of water, good food and re-set. That mission was achieved but did have a wholemeal pitta last night with dinner so quite carb heavy for me so can only think its that along with my upped water intake? Pretty sure this is a temporary "gain" though so not too bothered - plenty of water today, gym tonight and hope the bloat will go sooner rather than later as have an end of round target of 137lb..... weight not moved much in the last month just up and down, up and down .....

    4/11 - 138.80 down 1.2lb which is good but so massively bloated yesterday only had light lunch and I didn't eat my normal size dinner. Still feel rubbish today so going easy on the whole eating thing but not really feeling that hungry anyway. Possibly pay back for a week away in hotels and eating out ....Off work today and rest of the week so hoping a day taking it easy will get me back to normal :neutral:

    4/12 - 136.40lb down 2.4lb. Not real though as felt rough the last couple of days so not really eating much. Dodgy stomach so only had a banana, bit of toast and soup yesterday so weight will almost definitely go up again when I start eating normally again. Feel a bit better today and did have one of hubby's home made burgers tonight so will see what the scale shows tomorrow. Guess this is enforced intermittent fasting eh ? Maybe it'll work and I'll have to do it again on purpose? :wink:

    4/13 - DNW
    4/14 - DNW
    4/15 - DNW
    4/16 - 139.10lb - had a rough week last week not feeling great so food was a bit all over the place, was out for a chinese over the weekend with friends so higher sodium and MSG intake which is never good. Feeling back to normal today, kids back to school, I'm back to work and hopefully normality will return! Weather looking good today so even hoping for a quick 12 mile cycle tonight which I've not done for ages :smiley: Last day of the round tomorrow so should finish lower than what I started at .....

    4/17 - 137.60 down 1.50lb. My round target was 137ish so guess I made it :smile: Funny ol' round, but got there in the end. Hoping the next round I'll be properly focused! See you all round 38 x

    SW: 68.8 kg
    GW: 68.5 kg

    4/8 - dnw
    4/9 - 68.6 kg in the evening, haven't decided yet what I'm going to eat for dinner.
    4/10 - 68.6 kg (morning) - had a light lunch and some pizza and wine for dinner. I also drank only one coffee (instead of my usual 2-3-4).
    4 /11 - 68.5 kg - woop woop - now I have to make sure that I keep this and don't go up again. Drinking lots of water - I cut out the soda and don't really miss it, since I don't eat too many fatty foods.
    4/12 - 68.4 kg - not planning on jinxing it, but f-it am I happy about this :)
    4/13 - 68.4 kg
    4/14- 68.3 kg
    4/15 - 68.1 kg - I love this :love:
    4/16 - 68.5 - gonna blame the soy sauce for this.
    4/17 - 68.2 - I love that I am under goal weight. Though the main challenge for me was maintaining - I had a couple of months when I began stress-eating, so ending that is the main challenge for me at the moment

    R37SW: 112.8kg/248.7lbs R37EW: 110.6kg/243.8lbs (-2.2kg/4.9lbs)
    Overall loss (start of round) – 20.6kg/45.3lbs

    4/8: 111.9kg/246.7lbs - I struggled to post last round as I was so busy but fluctuated below and above what I finished on, but was a tab frustrated not to make a loss overall but I am very happy it didn't go up!! Good start to this round, hoping to drop some more tomorrow.
    4/9: 110.6kg/243.8lbs - Oh my god wow, I have not been this light in a very long time. Went for a 14km run on Saturday and a 4km run this morning and worked on my speed/pacing however my shins were causing me quite a lot of discomfort. Let us see if I can keep this weight off!
    4/10: 110.6kg/243.8lbs – Well it didn’t go up? 8km run this morning and my shins were on fire, eurgh. Now just to plod through the day, gym tonight and hopefully a drop tomorrow!
    4/12: 111.0kg/244.7lbs – I forgot how much my weight fluctuates… or how dodgy my scale is. Today is a rest day – also didn’t go to the gym last night as I was feeling so drained!
    4/13: 111.2kg/245.1lbs – Rest day so my calories crept just over my 1600, hoping for a wee drop soon, but down overall still.
    4/14: 110.9kg/244.5lbs - Good, recovered from some sort of bug and managed a 16km run.
    4/15: 110.3kg/243.2lbs - Great! 4 weeks until my half marathon and I'm going strongly.
    4/16: 111.7kg/246.2lbs – Awful. I really didn't want to post this as I was doing so well but I caved and had an indian last night, first takeaway since starting this and it will be my last for a very long time. I know it is a tiny blip in the scale of things, but it is a realisation for me that I really need to focus!
    4/17: 110.6kg/243.8lbs – Foodwise yesterday was great, I ate well and under calories and also squeezed in a good workout followed by another run this morning. Feeling great and very happy with the overall loss this round!

    Loss this round: -2.2kg/4.9lbs

    Overall loss – 22.8kg/50.2lbs – WOOOO made it to the 50lb club – this also represents the end of my 16th week on my journey and I am over the moon. Thanks everyone for your continued support!

    yeah!!! 'told you so' hahaha

    Cheat days work for me if ever so often as your metabolism is fooled

    Well done!! Fab round mister :)

    17/04: 167.4 Goals ✅ Hopefully, back on track.

    I keep a spreadsheet of my daily weights, and got out of step somewhere in posting the middle of this round. I have fixed it now. Also MFP is doing weird things this morning when I try to copy/paste form one part of the post to another.

    broth for supper with him. Later ate 4 apples because I was famished. Poor guy goes in this morning
    and I expect will be eating something filling for lunch. I expect this loss back.
    4/13 221.0 I am not disheartened. Just happy to be bouncing around down here instead of at 230.
    4/14 220.8
    4/15 222.0 Short of breath.
    4/16 223.6 I know it is med related. I am just very unhappy that I have to look at the loss of progress. short of breath as well. Tomorrow should look like some kind of miracle.
    4/17 223.8 No miracle. Just sadness in my coffee cup lol... JK , I will be back to try again next round.

    OSW: 203
    CGW: 190
    R37 Goal: 197

    Day/Weight/Comment
    4/8 -- 201.2
    4/9 -- 201.0 mostly on plan today. I adjusted my expectations from 1200 calories per day to 1370 -- I just wasn't able to make it on a consistent basis. I'd prefer to lose slower and set lifestyle habits for myself than potentially lose faster but with a plan I can't sustain.
    4/10 -- 200.6
    4/11 -- 198.6 I like this whoosh! Ironically I'm finding it a lot easier to stay under 1200 calories when I allow myself a daily limit of 1370. Whatever tricks my brain wants to use are fine with me.
    4/12 -- 197.6 Still whooshin'. I know that this is just the starting whoosh that comes after getting back on track after a long time of giving in to bad habits. I'm hoping to move well along the road before it tapers off.
    4/13 -- 196.8 Starting to worry that I'm going to bounce back badly when I stop whooshing. I have been perfectly on plan all week, though, so maybe it's legit.
    4/14 -- 196.4 First time I stepped on the scales it read 196.0. Thought I should check again. Hope I can hold on to this until the end of the challenge.
    4/15 -- 196.4 Looks like the whoosh is finally over.
    4/16 -- 196.6 Whoosh is very definitely over. Hope I don't bounce back too badly. I need to watch that I don't slip into bad habits now I don't have the strong positive reinforcement of major progress.
    4/17 -- 196.8 Still bouncing back, and still working hard not to let it derail me.

    Made my goal. Ready for the next round!

    4/10 - 184.8
    4/11 - 186.0....OOPS! Tuesday's usually get away from me. TOPS weigh in, so I treat myself to fast food &
    dessert afterwards. Back on track now! Tomorrow will be a better weight.
    4/12 - 185.8
    4/13 - 186.4
    4/14 - 186.8
    4/15 - 187.5
    4/16 - 188.6.... Holy Crap! Just because the weather is bad, doesn't give me the go ahead to binge!
    4/17 - 187.2....Jeez Loueez. Up 3 pounds this round. WTH is wrong with me?

    It won't be easy, but it will be worth it!
    My ultimate goal is 170lbs, so any loss is a good loss.

    1988 high school graduation 185-190lbs
    weight on 1/29/18 = 234.5
    new goal - drop below 190 feed and watered
    round 33 - start=215lbs end 202lbs
    round 34 - start = 202 end 192.8lbs stomach empty and bone dry
    round 35 - start = 192 end 196lbs
    round 36 – 195lbs no change.
    Round 37 goal – if I manage to maintain 195 I will be happy. I will be celebrating birthweek.
    4/8 – 194lbs. 700 calories under food goal.
    4/9 – 195lbs – still good considering its Monday. Birthday party tonight at local pub that cooks a mean bacon, ham, cheeseburger and the best fried mushrooms. Better have a skip lunch to have room for the 1300 calorie dinner
    4/10 195lbs – I so wanted the steak buffet. Oh well the wife promised this weekend when kids might be able to make it. Had awesome 1600 calorie burger and mushrooms. Then did cardio for over an hour. Way to many birthday cocktails.
    4/11 – 196lbs up 1 pound. I think it’s the snacks late last night at Spanish class.
    4/12 – 192lbs - I have no idea why. Maybe the workout on Monday. Maybe 600 calorie food deficit yesterday?
    4/13 – 194lbs – nothing but cucumbers until dinner at the steak buffet tonight. I am planning on cardio today to balance out the 3 pounds of meat I am planning on having.
    4/14 – 196 – logged 2 pounds of filet minion instead of listing all the different meats at the buffet last night. Just got done with an hour of cardio. I find it hard to believe I am not pushing 200 after all the feed I have had during Birthweek. Starting Monday I go back to normal life.
    4/15 – 192lbs and 54% water, why? Possibly the 2 days in a row with cardio, maybe < 150 calories before big dinner? Finished the day 1500 calories below maintenance that is only if you don’t count the whiskey.
    4/16 – 192.0lbs – a new 20 year low! Not sure how this happened while on vacation the last 4 days. Wife keeps telling me to eat.

    4/17 194lbs – well I listened to the wife and eat out for lunch and dinner. Fast food even with good choices packs on the pounds for me. Finished this round at starting weight. I am happy with that since we had a lot of bday party meals

    Struggling with some life events and sadness. Trying to hang in there.
    Woman, Age 46, 5'6"
    OSW: 252

    Round 32: SW 240.6; EW 241.6 (+1.0), Ave 241.92
    Round 33: SW 241.6; EW 238.2 (-3.4), Ave 239.84 (-2.08)
    Round 34: SW 238.2; EW 237.2 (-1.0), Ave 238.28 (-1.56)
    Round 35: SW 237.2--vacation started halfway
    Round 36: Late SW 238.8; EW 239--vacation ended halfway
    Round 37: SW 238.8; EW 237.4 (-1.4), Ave 238.10

    4/8 / 238.8 / Trying to hold on despite wanting to drown my sorrows in cake.

    4/9 / 239 / Am feeling a bit more like myself today, despite TOM wonkiness. Back at work this morning. The routine sometimes really helps me.

    4/10 / 237.4 / Feeling better yet again. Excellent.

    4/11 / 239 / Bouncy bouncy bouncy! Still, my mood is so much improved it's not even in the same ballpark, so I ain't complainin' for once.

    4/12 / 237.8 / I'm hungry! I was hungry yesterday, too. Bah!

    4/13 / 238.8 / At some point, I'll stop wanting to eat everything. I hope. :)

    4/14 / 238.8 / Maybe things are settling down.

    4/15 / 236.8 / Weighed late this morning, so this is likely a false loss!

    4/16 / 237.2 / Under calories yesterday for the first time in a while. Woot! I'm feeling way more in control of everything right now, which is a great feeling after a couple of weeks of real struggle to feel like I had the power to make changes. I'm human. I will struggle at times. I just need to hoist myself up again and again and keep moving forward. Consider myself hoist!

    4/17 / 237.4 / I didn't gain this round and actually lost. Given how sad and frantic I was at the start, that is my win. I'm feeling good about the next round and I hope to see your dear and familiar faces/avatars/names over there, plus newcomers!
