I'm here too! needed a break due to travel and events but I'm getting my head in the game.
OSW 198 lbs
SW Round 4: 183.8
GW this round: to get and stay below 179
Day/Weight/Comment
5/08 182.6 Weekend report: Ate out on Saturday (meal split over lunch and dinner) and Sunday night (ate only half the meal) Stayed on plan for Monday.
5/09 181.6 Had 3 days of high weigh-ins due to weekend food. Its a bit frustrating because obviously eating 2 3/4 cup servings of rice in addition to your regular plan will not result in a 4 lb gain of fat, but the water weight takes FOREVER to come off! Stayed on plan for Tuesday, with the exception of 5 oz of wine.

Female, 35, 5’6”
Starting weight: 158.2
Goal #1: 150
Ultimate Goal: 135
5/08 – 158.2 I’ve been losing weight for a little bit now, but this is my first time participating in this challenge so I’m going to pretend like it’s day 1 of my weight loss journey. I’m looking forward to the accountability this will provide!
5/09 – 158.6 Yesterday was not a good day on the eating front! I don’t know why I bought that bag of Starbursts, but it was a definitely a mistake. Not doing that again. If I have to have Starbursts, I’ll stick with the smaller packs. It’s a brand new day though and I’m excited about getting back on track.

Round 40
Please join us! Starting on 05/08 through O5/17, JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, we will begin Round 40
Anyone can join us at anytime during the round.
Join us! If we stay mindful we can do this, you can do this.
Welcome back past members, welcome new members, let's keep each other accountable for another 10 days!
Here is what you do: Post your daily weight and add little comments along the way of how your day went. Post everyday to let us know how you're doing! Copy and paste the days in your response--tell us how much you lost and other non scale victories (NSV) you'd like to share.
FOR NEWBIES - I find it easiest to copy the dates to a document or note in my device and edit it each morning. Then copy and paste to the message board. MFP will return you to the spot on the board where you left off on your previous visit which is nice to know if you like to scan all of the posts.

5/08 - 244 (which is a pound less than yesterday for me). Lowest I've been in way to long sadly, though when I started my weight loss journey (again...) I was 257.8, so I'm happy I'm heading in the right direction at least
5/09 - 243.8 - I've been trying to walk at least a mile on my lunch break around the campus I work at, and at night doing at least 30 min of one of my POUND dvd's. I'd like to start working some Yoga in there too to get more flexible, but feel like I need to lose a tad bit more weight to do most of the moves, so I'm really excited to see my weight go down, no matter how small

I'm considering this round a pivot point since it ends on our move-into-new-house day. I've been lax in my calorie limits, and that's going to stop. I've reset my allowance and am dropping most bread from my diet. I'm also finally getting back to regular walks and weight training. I'm not keen on weight goals since I can't control the scale, but I'm determined to stick to my eating and exercise goals now and will hope to drop a pound per round (3/month) with an eye to hitting my UGW by early December.
Goals:
Weight ~~ UGW - 130; looking for indefinite downward trend each round, ideally 1 pound/round.
Food ~~ 1350 calories max (estimated TDEE); P 15-25%, C 35-50%, F 30-45%

I started this challenge at round 27, at 227.8. I ended round 38 at 194. That is a 33 pound loss! I love this challenge! It goes against everything I USED to believe about weighing in daily, and has taught me to really listen to my body, not get discouraged by small set backs, and to celebrate the small victories!

#39: 136.8 - 136.2 = -0.6
5/08: 136.8, Had a date last night which I cooked for. Chicken Scarpariello, roasted broccoli with EVOO, garlic, and kalamata olives, 3 cheese tortellini, sourdough bread, and wine. It was worth every bite!
5/09: 139.4, yep, I knew this was coming.5 -
I'm back. Hope you all are doing well!
Haven't been posting here for a few rounds, and does it show.
Honestly, I had stalled in my efforts for a while around the holiday period and then I got bad at tracking after the new year. Job change (voluntary), adult children drama, unexpected trips were all contributors (a.k.a. excuses.) I had gained about five pounds back then BAM another five piled on in a matter of a couple weeks. When I stepped on the scale and saw I had crossed over 200 - which I said I would never do again - I knew it was time for daily weighing. I am still over 25 down from my start; this is the start to the next 25!
Starting weight after Cinco de Weekendo = 205.5 (lot of H2O)
Day/Weight/Comment
5/08 - 202.4 Can you guess who had a lot of salty food over the weekend? But no salt on my Margarita rim.
5/09 - 203.8 I hope this is a result of getting back in the chips and salsa and not drinking much water. So fun how dehydration makes you retain water (at least at first.) I feel bloated.

5/08 / 259.0 / Here we go! I was so down about my last round that I decided to see how much I'd stalled out in my weight loss over the entirety of this attempt (from Jan. 16th). I thought, surely, with the time I spent out of state, my mother's death, and this past round I must be at least 5 pounds behind my "two pounds a week" goal. Shocker. No. I am still ahead, having lost more than two pounds a week on average. I know weight loss starts with water weight but it helped put the wind back in my sails.
5/09 / 258.0 / I have never really looked at my macros. I just count calories. By coincidence, my fat calories were high, protein was just below target and carbs were way low. You Keto people know where I’m going with this, right? I.Wasn’t.Hungry.

@MadisonMolly2017
You're welcome! I needed to remind myself, too. My brain tells me that I looked better the last time I got this close. It's trying not to let me enjoy what's been a pretty amazing run.
Screw you, brain!1 -
I didn't realize until a few minutes ago that I'm more than 50 lbs down from my heaviest weight (January 2015). When I see 190 again, my weight will be lower than it's been since high school. Life is working, and I'm just going to take another moment to thank everyone here for everything. This place has allowed me to sit with whatever it is that's been bothering me. It's given me space to really examine how I've been living my life, especially the pattern(s) that have been derailing me from previous success. I feel so much more prepared to deal with life than I was a few months ago, and this group has everything to do with that. I'm blessed to have you in my life, and I love each and every one of you.

Day/Weight/Comment
5/8 = 194.0 (-0 2). I finally went shopping on Sunday night, and I actually food prepped last night. I made a sausage and pepper soup (delicious) and a bacon frittata (also delicious). Tonight I'm getting some new cookware that I need in order to finish my food prep: a chicken casserole thingy. Lots of work getting it done, but it felt good. And it's great not having to stress about where I'm getting my next meal. And it tastes good!!! 4 more days until I can resume basketball/lifting weights, but I might cheat a couple of days early and play Thursday.
5/9 = 194.2 (+0.2). I stayed "on plan" last night, but impulsively had another serving of dinner. And then a little bit of dark chocolate. I was on-target with carbs, but over everywhere else. Snacked a bit to much during the day, which left me with very little wiggle room at the end of the night. I really wasn't hungry; it was impulsive. Moment noted. I'm not going to dwell. My tattoo is looking/feeling pretty healed. I'm going to take a pic of it, send it to my artist, and ask for permission to play basketball tomorrow. Focusing on avoiding snacking when I'm not hungry today.

I had 2, then wanted to eat more, so I had 2 more. Logged it and moved on. I was exhausted from a super busy weekend and crashed early. I was a little disheartened this morning at the thought of eating the same lunch yet again. So, I'll be brainstorming some new lunch and snack ideas so I don't stumble back to fast foods. Dinners have not changed too much other than subbing out refined carbs for better grain choices; low carb multi grain tortillas, quinoa, etc. Tonight I'll make a big batch of thai quinoa salad and DH will grill a few pounds of chicken and sausage so we have a few days lunches as well. Scales may not move tomorrow but I suspect if I'm good on hydration there should be a downward trend toward the end of the week. Remember, slow steady loss is good! Don't get ahead of yourself, just one day at a time. Possible mini vaca to visit dad in FL with DH in June, so that is more motivation to stick to my June goal.
5/09 - 204.4 - I was SO dehydrated this morning and I'm not sure what happened - I was good on water throughout the day and ate well. But alas, I woke up with a headache, yellower than normal 1st morning pee, and was not expecting that number. I already feel better after a few glasses of water. Strange. Anyway - Florida visit is a definite now, so I need a bathing suit. And its just a little bit more incentive to stick to the plan. Thai quinoa salad last night was amazing and I'm looking forward to lunch today! I'm looking forward to my future in general too - and that is a great feeling!

Try my scale trick. Weigh yourself tonight, fully clothed, preferably after dinner and before you go to the bathroom. Be the heaviest you're going to be that day.
Then weigh yourself as normal in the morning.4 -
Age 60, 5'4" and eating in a livable way = It's. Not. A. Diet. I eat back exercise calories, or I would be starving and cranky. Hubby does not like cranky me. Changed MFP setting 5/5/18 to 1/2# per week loss ~ within 10# of UGW, weight loss was stalled 3 months + was feeling hungry more often.
MFP SW 195 ~ Goals: #1 = 150 / #2 = 145 [normal BMI] / #3 = maintain 140 - 145 / no goal dates ~ I get there when I get there
Thrilled with my 2/15/18 annual physical: BP 110/68, pulse 64 and BMI 26.14
My digital scale only has 1/2# increments, and I'm too cheap to buy a fancier scale. Weigh first thing in morning / comments reflect prior day.
