    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

    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.

    R36SW: 112.8kg/248.7lbs R36EW: 112.8kg/248.7lbs (no change)
    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:

    don't beat yourself up too much, back on it today and it will soon melt away. We all need a treat every now and then :)

    Thanks Tracie! I need to remember that this journey is not linear, onwards and downwards!
