6/07 - 160.7 Ready to take on these next 10 days with discipline and self-control!
6/08 - 159.0 Great day yesterday! Didn’t feel deprived, but I was able to stay in control of my eating.
6/09 - 161.0. Unexpected grill out at my parents’ last night and went a little overboard. Back on track for the rest of the weekend.

Round 43
My Round 1
SW: 132.4 (6/7/18)
GW: 123 lbs

Day/Weight/Comment
6/07- 132.4 - lots of brown rice and broccoli for lunch and dinner. Need to make sleep a priority.
6/08 - 133.2 -always annoying when you eat no processed food, lots of veggies and come in heavier. Gym and yoga. Intermittent fast from 6pm-11am. Swim got rained out.
6/09 132.8. Yay. Was expecting to have gained weight as we did sushi last night but I don’t use say sauce so winning. I slept through my morning alarm to go run. Sleep continues to be a need. Plan to run later and indoor Rock climb.

6/07--176.4 Yes!!! Happy to see some movement to start off the round! Had a good day yesterday; didn't snack throughout the day and ended up only a few calories over my goal.
6/08--176.2 Two days in a row is beautiful! I am determined to make this last the whole round! No snacking yesterday but I did overeat Ben and Jerry's non-dairy ice cream last night. Even so, only a few calories over my goal.
6/09--176.4 Three days in a row at 176, haven't seen that in four years! Pilates this morning and hopefully working on some projects around the house this weekend. I tend to do better, food-wise, on the weekends.

6/07 - 139.8 - I did a yoga class yesterday for the first time in 2 years. Every muscle in my body is screaming at me!!!!
6/08 ? - forgot to weight but didn't forget to eat loads of cake and biscuits
6/09 - 141.9. eeek!!
6/10 - 141.0 - muscles are nearly back to normal so went to the gym!
6/11 - 141.0 - need to cut back on the snacking so I'm trying something new.....only 3 snacks a day (doesn't matter what it is). At the moment its probably way over 10 a day. Anything and everything that's got sugar in it.
It's 11:20am and I've already had 2! It's probably going to be a tough day!

Day/Weight/Calories Day Before/10-day ave (aiming for 1430)/Comment

6/07 - 149.8 - 1526 - 10-day ave 1452
We went out for lunch yesterday (Mexican, but I had grilled chicken and rice with veggies), so although I stayed pretty much within calorie bounds, I'm sure my sodium was higher than usual. I spent a good hour digging and planting flowers in my garden.

6/08 - 149.8 - 1245 - 10-day ave 1421.4
OK, scale, I'm ready for a little drop if you don't mind. I'm keeping calories low, macros good, and I'm exercising, so come on, your turn.

6/9 - 149.8 - 1433 - 10-day ave 1435.5
Sigh. I really thought I'd see a little more movement here. My total calories are right at my estimated TDEE (maintenance), but I'm burning a reasonable number each day. Or I thought I was. I guess I'll keep doing what I'm doing through the end of this round and see if there's any progress. If not, I'll look for a way to shake things up. It's pouring rain this morning, with lightning, so no walk, but I'll find something else.... Lunch with a friend, but I'll stick to good stuff. Have a lovely weekend, all!

6/10 - 149.6 - 1442 - 10-day ave 1448.9
Finally, a baby step in the right direction. I find these numbers & averages fascinating. There's still one high-calorie day in my 10-day set of numbers - it will be there for 2 more days. Without it, by average would be about 40 calories lower. I'll be interested to see what happens when I hit the lower averages (assuming I don't splurge again any time soon!). I do eat what I want - pizza for lunch yesterday with a friend - but still keep my daily total within bounds and that seems to make the difference. Anyway, if you find yourself frustrated with the daily ups & downs, try averaging, either yourself or using one of the apps that calculate running averages of weights entered.

6/7 / 232 / Not a shocker given that I was up at 4 am to get on a train.

6/8 / 231 / Back to a more normal weigh in time. Yesterday was mostly train rides, though I did get walking in. High sodium and not enough water, so I'm pleased to be at 231. Woke up with a killer headache. I don't know if it's sinus or lack of caffeine (I've been trying to cut back). I started today with a big breakfast, so we'll see how my calories shake out.

6/9 / 230.6 / Sinus headache again (I'm pretty sure it's sinus).


6/10 / 230.4 / Slowly creeping down. And headache AGAIN. I've gone a tiny bit over calories the past couple of days. I've been eating bigger breakfasts than normal for me, and it's not a winning strategy. It's not enough to cause me to gain. It will just slow my loss. But today, I'm getting that back down to my normal. I've abandoned giving up caffeine right now.

Day/Weight/Comment

6/07 – 181.8: Miniscule drop, but I’LL TAKE IT!!! Ate well and didn’t eat back exercise calories. Really psyched for my Round 2. Thinking I’ll do another Booster Weekend. I didn’t do all the exercise I wanted last weekend, but the thought of my personal mini challenge kept me focused on eating well.

6/08 – 181.8: Same, and it’s ok. Did no workout yesterday and ate within calories but late. Planning how to stay on point this weekend with eating and exercise. Really want the downward creep to continue each day.

6/09 – 182.8: HUH??? This hurts my feelings because I ate within calories yesterday. Fine, I didn’t formally exercise, other than 45 minutes of housework, but seriously… a whole pound up??? This is too early in my journey for this. This is when I start to waiver, I NEED to go down please..

6/10 – 181.8: Back to starting weight at the beginning of this round. Grateful for this.

This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

6/7 136.5 I was feeling frustrated when I weighed this morning until I realized, I am still below my original goal weight. Working on changing my mind set.
6/8 136.0
6/9 136.5
6/10 136.5 Over calories, over macros, and a general overall slug yesterday. I need to get a grip!

REALIZATION - No matter what the situation (birthday, wedding, funeral, banquet, theme park, etc) I AM THE ONLY ONE WHO CONTROLS WHAT GOES IN MY MOUTH!

Newbie to the challenge, long time, half-a**ed MFPer.

I've had three rough years and nursed my emotions with too much wine and food. Which creates of course more depression! I saw this challenge and thought, I'm ready for this! I haven't weighed myself in two years. My clothes all fit still but tight so I rationalized. I have Hashimoto's hypothyroid so my metabolism is sloooooowwwww already and I need to make better food choices.

I put fresh batteries in my scale this morning. Didn't like what I got back but who am I kidding? I need to be accountable.

So here goes.... Hoping this daily check in with all you fabulous MFPers will keep me motivated. Also, I could use some new friends on MFP!

@krea4 I feel your pain. Once I get started it takes almost super-human effort to break out of the vicious cycle.

You can do this! Are the snacks at home? Give them to a shelter or homeless kitchen. Are you like me and hitting up the vending machine? Leave your debit card and cash locked up in your car. Make it inconvenient to grab/purchase a snack. Keep snack packs of veggies (lowest calories), fruit, and beef or turkey jerky handy (low-moderate calories). Greek yoghurt and cottage cheese can be very satisfying, too.
Avoid dehydrated fruit because it's very calorie dense and not filling = too easy to overeat. Nuts are very calorie dense, but if you have good self control then have 1 serving.

@sunshinegirlnm Welcome! This is a really great group for support and good advice.

I'm confident plenty of us can relate. I just transferred from a stressful and negative work environment which I allowed to get to me. 20 months and 22 lbs was plenty for me. I'm extremely happy at my new job and it shows; I've dropped 1/2 the stress eating weight in 7 weeks.

6/07 - 156.6 - hello my friend

6/08 - 156.6 - Nice to see this number again. Had high amount of sodium yesterday so might see an increase the next day or two but tried to drink lots of water too. Busy weekend starting today with some kind of food get together each day so will need to have lots of will power and really pay attention to what I eat so I don't gain.

6/09 - 156.6 - hmm....

6/10 - 156.2 - Was at a wild game dinner last night so I didn't log any food as I wasn't sure how but I only had a small plate and 2 spiked sparkling waters and a light lunch before so my calorie intake shouldn't of been too horrible. Weigh in is also a few hours late as we stayed up really late and I enjoyed sleeping in. Hoping to get a walk in today between the rain storms. Happy Sunday!

@puttyputty I feel you on the headaches. Caffeine is my self medication, been back and forth with it but now I am settling for the happy medium between headaches and bad sleep.

My habit of logging here is working as well in maintenance as it did while losing. Wishing everyone a god round!

Round 42 GOAL = Log every day. Get 5 cardio workouts. Get 5 mini strength workouts.

6/7 - 126.4 - whoosh of -2 pounds in a day. This takes me back to my pre-vacation range, getting rid of the bit I gained AFTER coming back. Yesterday just under maintenance calories, 30 min elliptical arctrainer, and tested my recovering knee in a 1.25 mile run ... it passed!
6/8 - 127.0 - Yesterday right at maintenance calories, RAN 2.2 MILES, walked an extra bit, and got my 10K steps.
6/9 - 127.4 - Yesterday under maintenance by 100 or so, ran 2 miles, and did a little body-weight strength workout, just starting. 10K steps.

6/10 - 128.0 - Yesterday 170 over maintenance calories and I LOGGED IT ANYWAY (that has been a fight for me so yay). Left Knee has gotten jealous of Right Knee and decided it wanted extra massage, the neoprene sleeve, arnica, and biofreeze TOO. Unfortunate, but maybe I shouldn't have done so many body weight lunges and squats barefoot on a cushy rug while watching the Warriors win the title Friday night. Nonetheless, 10K steps and a short walk.

I'm fully back on Keto, and it kinda feels like I never left. I haven't had an official weigh-in below 190, but I have seen it on my scale, and I'm really excited. The end of last round was fantastic (~5lbs in 3 days), and it looks like it "stuck." Going on vacation next Tuesday for 1 week (and with my in-law side of the family... 10 people... in a van), and I'm really happy that I got back on Keto before this. It's just not THAT hard to maintain, and it gives me an extra reason (for them) to stay away from things I've always wanted to stay away from.

Day/Weight/Comment

6/07 = 190.4 (+0.2), BF% = 15.3 (no change). I'm really happy to see this number, as I was not fully convinced that yesterday's weigh-in was accurate. I snacked a bit much yesterday, which led to me eating at about maintenance. I'm feeling super-positive right now. I have basketball and the weightlifting tonight. I think I'm eventually going to alternate my weightlifting and basketball days; I'm not sure it will make a difference health/fitness-wise, but it should improve the likelihood that I get my weightlifting in. At this point, when I have to sacrifice something (because of time), I just do legs at the gym, not upper body.

6/08 = 191.2 (+0.8), BF% = 15.3. This is "one of those days." I played basketball last night, I had a healthy dinner, and I ate well yesterday; everything indicated that today should have been, at worst, maintaining my weight. Daily fluctuations; sometimes they make sense, sometimes they don't. But, given my current Zen state, I'm going to see this for what it is. Basketball was mediocre last night, but I didn't get hurt. I'm experiencing some ridiculous drama at work today (petty personal drama), and it has me in a bad mood.

6/09 = 190.2 (-1.0), BF% = 15.3. Basically A WHOOSH™. I ate well yesterday. I'm right in the edge of 189.x. Trying not to obsess about it. I play basketball in a little over an hour, and I'm going to stop at the gym. This could be the day. I'm going to eat very mindfully today. Going it for drinks tonight for a friend's birthday, so it's going to be tough. 2 drinks max, and they must be Keto-friendly.

6/10 = 190.8 (+0.6), BF% = 15.3. Yesterday was a mixed bag. Basketball was great, eating, not so much. My wife was a horrible, insidious influence. I know my eating is my responsibility, but she was in rare form. I need to find a kind way to talk with her about this, because I can deal with temptation, but not sabotage from my wife.

Happy day friends! If you had a worrisome weigh-in the last few days, remember that our weight is only information, not a punishment/reward system. It's just one kind of feedback on our progress. Little daily jogs up and down are expected, weight loss is not linear. Yeah it's nice to get "likes" here on a drop, but what matters is:

1. how am I doing on meeting my goals? logging every bite, staying within my calorie goal, enjoying food without blindly overindulging, getting the planned workouts or steps - or whatever my goals are?
2. what is my 10-day or weekly rolling average, or my trending app, telling me?
3. If I'm doing well on #1, the results in #2 WILL follow.
4. If the results don't follow - with 3-6 weeks to judge by - THEN it's time to re-evaluate either my goals or my execution. Tighten the logging, pay better attention to calorie burn estimates, etc. Because none of us is that unicorn that gains in a deficit

We don't withhold praise from our kids until their team wins a game. We praise them for showing up for every practice, working hard, coming home beat, rehydrating, eating a healthy breakfast...

This challenge and the people I've come to know here have helped me learn to give myself praise and credit for the EFFORT and know that the RESULTS will follow. That was the key to my recent weight loss and now it's the key to maintenance.

I wish we could "sticky" posts somehow. This was fantastic. Thank you @brightresolve
