    OSW:188
    Ultimate goal: 138
    Round 38: 180.1 (-5.9)
    Round 39: 179.9 (-0.2)



    4/28: 180.1 Same as yesterday. Lots of walking yesterday but also lots of indulgences in my diet. I wanted a break from logging before the next round. Back to work!
    4/29: 181.7 Walked a bunch but ate steak and popcorn and wine. This is the result.
    4/30 181.2 Continued my walking regime. Diet a little indulgent by eating back all my exercise calories. It’s a step int the right direction though. I just need to stop eating Sunday morning grits—their calorie density just throws me off for the whole day.
    5/1: 182.8 I had 12,000 steps and a great DB workout. Drank my water and stayed in calorie goal. Sigh.
    5/2: 183.2, walked 12,000 steps and did power cardio workout. Ate back half my workout calories and gained again. Not sure if I should just be patient or should stop eating exercise calories back.
    5/3: 183.4, family celebration. I was careful most of the day but wheels came off in the evening. I wonder if some of this isn’t water weight from TOM. In any case I need to eliminate after dinner calories to see.
    5/4: 181.4 There goes the water bloat. Made better food choices yesterday. Not perfect but better. Here’s to progress.
    5/5:182.5. Lotsofwalking and biking. Stayed in calorie goal but not nearly enough water
    5/6: 181, woo hoo! I’ll take it. This challenge has been such a challenge for me. Calorie counting and restriction is the only way I lose weight. Exercise feels good but I really can only eat back about 1/4 to1/3 of my calories. Otherwise I stall.
    5/7: 179.9, after 10 days of angst and drama I ended with a loss. It’s a .2 loss but lots learned. TOM is a bigger factor than I thought. Water is important. Don’t eat back more than 25% of exercise. Exercise makes me hungrier but not impervious to caloric math.

    Original SW: 190 (12/29/2016)
    Round 36 SW: 183
    Round 37 SW: 179.8
    Round 38 SW: 179.0
    Round 39 SW: 178.2
    Round 39 GW: 176--my wedding weight!
    Ultimate GW: 145ish

    4/28:--178.8 I'm going the wrong way. The last few days I have been soooo hungry and going way over my calorie goals for the day. I don't know if its just because I just got through TOM, or I'm not getting enough protein, or what--but I need to figure it out and get back on track.
    4/29:--178.8 Did a good amount of exercise yesterday and only ate back about 2/3 of the calories. Hopefully that will start to make up for my over-eating last week. Going to do some yard work today.
    4/30:--178.0 Headed back in the right direction. Stayed active this weekend and ate at a deficit both days. Weekends are easier for me.
    5/01:--178.0 Glad it stayed; I overate yesterday by quite a bit, and today I feel bloated and tired. Yuck.
    5/02:--178.8 Stuck in this range but I feel better today. It's amazing how much my diet contributes to my mood.
    5/03:--178.6 No progress at all this round. I've been over my calorie goals nearly every day, so I guess I'm happy that I'm not going back up! We'll see how I do with being out of town and on the road the next few days.
    5/04: Out of town-road trip for niece's college graduation
    5/05: Out of town
    5/06: Out of town
    5/07:--179.6 Not terrible, considering I did very little exercise and didn't log meals for the last three days. Hoping to get out of the 178 rut next round!

    4/28 -- Had company over
    4/29 141.0
    4/30 139.4
    5/01 139.4
    5/02 139.4 What is it with this number?

    5/03 138.8 Yesssss! That’s what I like to see. And I even had a little breakfast in me because I forgot to weigh until after I’d started eating.

    5/04 139.0
    5/05 139.0 Ate an impromptu, celebratory, big dinner at a restaurant last night. As a result, I may see a jump in the scale over the next couple days. After logging with my best guesses, it looks like I **might** have eaten at maintenance, which I hope is true. Going to try to be reeeeallly good today and tomorrow. :#

    5/06 139.0
    5/07 138.8 Yay!!! Very happy about the final number for this round. :)

    Day/Weight/Comment

    •4/28 - 206.6 - Back to this smh. Maybe I'll be on a crazy type of plateau for a while. Still retaining a lot of fluid. If this culminates in a whoosh, it better be awesome. Lol
    •4/29 - 205.2 - I lost a little bit more bodyfat too! Weighing everyday can be useful during the fat loss stage, because it provides more information on your body's fluctuations from exercise, sodium and water consumption. In my case, even though I was already knowledgeable about all of that, it's still stressful. Not a good thing when you suffer from adrenal fatigue. Anyhoo! I truly find that for me, daily weigh-ins are more beneficial during the maintenance phase to keep me from eating foods that I know are going to make me gain. And I'm not talking about an occasional dessert or glass of wine, I'm talking bread and grains.
    •4/30 - 204.8  - Yes! I like seeing this number and yes, still retaining water.

    •5/1 - 203 - I never got back here this morning to make a comment. YES, very happy that it is another day of weight drop. Tomorrow, not sure about. I suffer from TMJ and last night it rose its ugly head. I won't be able to eat a thing, so I've been working on what I could possibly drink to get in SOME nutrients today. My coconut milk avocado smoothie made with spinach and protein powder mixed with raw greens powder won't put me over carbs. It will provide plenty of vitamin A and C but not even half of my daily calories, not enough protein or fat. Gonna be a rough day, but hunger won't be a part of it. Recently, I have not been hungry until 3 or 4pm. I intermittent fast, 16:8. First meal at 4 is 20 hrs. I've been thinking about trying OMAD, one meal a day, but I just don't think I can eat my daily calorie allotment in one hour. 

    •5/2 - 204.8 - Revisiting this number. Not much jaw pain today, but still pressure, a headache and neck pain. Thanks TMJ! I made it through yesterday on a nutritive drink made of protein powder mixed with greens powder, an avocado and several TBS of peanut butter. Really sad. I miss my salad and vegetables. I think I'll try some scrambled eggs today.

    •5/3 - 204 - Feeling much better today.

    •5/4 - 204.6 - I have under eaten by almost 600 calories in the past 3 days, so I am very unhappy to see this number that has nothing to do with sodium, no exercise or not enough water. I am a person that becomes overweight from not eating enough. So, I will have to have a few days of overeating my calorie goal in hopes of balancing things out. At least I can chew my salads now! :)

    •5/5 - 203 - ? - Of course I'm loving this, BUT it's on the back of 4 days of under eating. Good news is that I'm hungry, so I'll break my fast early today. This is also the first day in a while that my body doesn't feel filled with fluid.

    •5/6 - I didn't take the time to weigh myself this morning. I'm pretty sure it wasn't yesterday's weight. I had to finish up cooking breakfast and pack it up to take to my DS and DIL'S house. For the past couple of years, we have had a pre mothers day brunch or lunch so that Mother's Day celebration can be reserved for the young Moms. Eating 2 homemade belgian waffles, thanks to my son, made my day heavy on carbs. They were very airy and crisp, just how I like them. I enjoyed them and now I don't want anymore. The rest of the breakfast, which I prepared, was ketogenic. Vegetable egg casserole, turkey breakfast sausage and creamed chipped beef. I told my husband, if you say it, (s.o.s.) you can't have any! Lol.

    •5/7 - 202 - I arrived at this number at the expense of hourly trips to the bathroom and reduced sleep with foot and ankle cramping. Three hours of sound sleep and maybe one extra hour of broken sleep, because I'm sure that I nodded off for a few minutes each hour. I'm surprised that I don't feel exhausted. What to pin it on? Increased calorie intake two days in a row? The 80+ grams of carbs eaten yesterday? I have no idea.
    On to the next 10 days in hopes that we all can reach our goals.

    I'm back and looking forward to this round. After two months of disruption with moving, house hunting, eating out too much, loosening up my usual healthy food choices, not walking my usual 1-2 hours/day, and a generally high stress level, I'm finally getting back to my usual routine. We should be moving into our house 3 weeks from yesterday, and in the meantime I'm just trying to eat well and mindfully and within bounds and exercise when I can. Of course, I also hope to (finally) start losing regularly.

    Goals:
    Weight ~~ UGW - 130; looking for indefinite downward trend each round; hope for 148 this round.
    Food ~~ 1548 calories max (estimated TDEE); P 15-25%, C 35-50%, F 30-45%

    4/28 - 148.8 - 1269
    That's better! I went for a lovely walk yesterday at one of the city's beautiful parks. Today it's colder and there's a vicious wind, and I'm still trying to lose this cold, so won't be walking, but I've restarted doing body weight exercises and am off to buy some dumbbells in a few minutes. I sold my set when we moved but I miss the little boogers.

    4/29 - 149.2 - 1849
    A little bit of a blowout yesterday, but things average out. :smiley: All good, healthy food, just a little too much of it. I don't think the weight bump is from the food, though -- too quick. I think it's water due to cold meds. We shall see.

    4/30 - 149.6 - 2102
    Still getting over this stupid cold and I know I'm retaining water, although I drank gallons yesterday. And I overate yesterday (although it's not as bad as it looks since I did walk for 70 minutes). It's ok.

    5/01 - 149 - 1990
    Surprised I lot a little (for now). I can't seem to stop eating - and I'm not fighting it too much since I'm still sick - just a cold, but a sinus headachy coughy one. I kind of think my body needs the food for healing. Maybe I'll just sleep all afternoon and see if that helps!

    5/02 - 149 - 1792 (past 7 day ave 1667)
    Interesting. I've been eating more than usual but seem to be pretty much holding steady. I have been walking most days, so that must be it. Fine by me! Another beautiful day here and I'm headed out for a walk at one of the beautiful city parks.

    5/03 - 149.8 - 1762 (past 7 day ave 1718)
    Yep, that's fair. I did walk an hour yesterday, fast, so net calories were lower. Still fighting off this chesty, hacking cold/cough, and I feel like I need to eat. I'm not eating junk, so I'll just go with it until I'm better. I keep reading your entries for inspiration & reassurance :smiley:

    5/04 - 149.8 - 1775 (past 7 days ave 1791)
    I'm may skip weigh ins for the weekend (we'll see how I feel in the morning), but I will weigh in on Monday for the end of round.

    5/05 - 149.8 - 1284 (past 7 days ave 1793)
    I stuck to the plan yesterday. If I can end where I started with all the high-calorie sick days, I'll be happy.

    5/06 - 149.8 - 1839 (past 7 days ave 1792; 10 days 1692)
    We went out to eat yesterday and I ended up going over, but I also walked a bit, so I guess it evened out. I finally seem to be shaking this cold and cough, and I'm going for a nice, long walk.

    5/07 - 149.8 - 1873 (past 10 days ave 1753.5)
    Well, not exactly on plan, but I really think I needed the extra food while I've been fighting this cold/cough/swollen glands. My macros stayed on target, weight stayed the same. All good. We close on our house on Friday, and have a week until the movers move the big stuff, but I plan to tote some things over and start my new garden, Exciting! I expect the pounds to just drop off once we move - hahaha. OK, not really, but they should begin inching (ouncing?) down again. On to R40 (my 26th! -- which makes me see that I've lost a whopping 1.4 pounds in 250 days -- average of .05 per round. Hahaha. But it's not a gain, and not gaining is a HUGE gain, and now I'm rambling, so.... See your at R40!).

    R39 SW=220.9

    I usually don't do goals for each round, but I want to put it out there so that I give myself some extra incentive.

    Goal for this round: Average weight in the 219's.

    Day/Weight/Comment

    4/28: 220.4 Tough kettlebell workout yesterday and then came home and went on a 1 hour walk with husband and the dog. Massage today!
    4/29: 220.0 Worked on getting my water in yesterday which I find much harder to do on the weekends. Had a great massage yesterday. Hoping the weather holds up so that I can get a long walk in today.
    4/30:220.9 Had chinese food yesterday, so I'm not surprised about the jump due to the increased sodium. Went for a 2.2 mile walk yesterday. Allergies are killing me today, so no kettlebell :'(
    5/01:--221.1 More water retention from left over chinese food. Calories were good, so now I just wait for the water weight to leave. Drinking a lot of water today.
    5/02:--221.3 Ugh. I am assuming that is still some water weight. I have been really good in getting my water in the last couple of days. Allergies under control today, so kettlebell tonight.
    5/03--220.0 There goes the water weight.
    5/04:--218.6 I had to weigh myself twice this morning. I hate that my emotions are affected by the number on the scale. I know that I have been eating within my calories and exercising, so I will lose weight, but it is nice when the scale reflects the work that I've put in. Kettlebell tonight.
    5/05:--218.6 Holding steady. Tweeked my back a little yesterday, so I didn't go to kettlebell last night. Going for a hike today. Working on getting in my water today.
    5/06:--218.4 Successfully got my water in yesterday. Going out to lunch today, I've looked over the menu and know what I plan on eating, now let's hope that I stick to it. ;)
    5/07:--219.3 Water weight from my lunch out yesterday. Was within my calories for lunch, but the sodium content high. I got my water in yesterday, so that was a success.

    Met my goal: Avg. for 10 days--219.86

    4/30 - 184 - Thought I'd be worse off over the weekend. Back to personal training tomorrow.
    5/01 - 184 - Up the mountain yesterday. It's going to be too hot soon :(
    5/02 - 183.4 - That's most of the bloat gone. Surprised, my trainer is back and kicked my behind yesterday.
    5/03 - 184 - And here we'll go bouncing around again.
    5/04 - 184? - Scale was really acting weird this morning.
    5/05 - 183.2 - Scale is still being weird. Maybe it's time to go get a new one.
    5/06 - 183.8
    5/07 - 183.8 - Kind of holding around here. Which is nice. A lot less bouncing this round than I thought.

    4/30 145.2 I took a few days off. I'm finding the preparation of meals and snacks so very important as is getting the support from family.
    5/01 144.0 Made it to the gym and ate right!
    5/02 142.8 Can I dare to make it to the 130s so soon? I'm on day 31 of and only had about 2 days where I had a cheat meal - not a cheat day.

    5/03 142.8
    5/04 142.8
    5/05 144.8 So last night I had my first hamburger in over a year. Then I shared my husband's Canadian style fries. No worries. I'll drink lots of water today. May not get a lot of activity since I have to catch up on grading.

    5/06 146.8
    5/07 143.8
