6/12 On a great streak for walking, (45mins)-and it was hot!
6/13 -feeling great today starting to get my power walking back. Walking daily, starting to push myself more with out feeling tired.
6/14- I had a rough day yesterday, I had a good surgery and healing really good, but when I went to the Cancer clinic at the hospital they said I had a very rare tumour that they removed, and I have to start six weeks of radiation, and steroids again. So I have a rough afternoon today. Then I have to continue to fight this. Walking and eating healthy.Family and friends are the greatest.

Hi. I am Donna. I am on the low carb keto diet because I need to lose weight but also quickly lower my blood glucose levels since I am Type 2 diabetic and my glucose numbers got to a very dangerous level. So far it is working. My weight loss goals are also being met although I have found when it comes to weight loss, all true diets will work if you stick with it consistantly and try to get in some physical fitness as well. This is my first 10 day challenge. Good luck to us all (no matter which type of diet or physically activity you have chosen). We can do this folks!
6/07 193.8 lbs. I Had a doctor appointment today and found out my blood levels are all perfect including my cholesterol so I am thrilled. Dr. supports my keto diet and gave me some more tips. Stuck to my diet very good today although I still battle occasional cravings.
6/08 195.1 lbs. Darn that BBQ I attended anyway. I SHOULD NOT have had dessert either. Tomorrow will be better. I'm human and sometimes fail. But I always jump back on the horse and ride again, so I vow to be faithful tomorrow....
6/09 194.6 Going in the right directions finally. I have walked 1.5 - 3.0 miles each day including today. I have been steadfast to the diet today. I am proud of myself today.
6/10 194.6 I walked 13,180 steps today with lots of physical activity. Most of this was work related and not repetitive exercise, but still healthy on the heart and burns a couple hundred calories. I stuck to my diet today with very little temptation. Some days are just better than others!
6/11 193.6….. Down one pound. Slow movement. I have Intermittent fasted each and every day on the 12:8 plan. Today I also practiced an Egg Fast with very low calories to give myself a jolt as I wonder if I am hitting a bit of a plateau. Had 12,812 steps by 11:53 pm. Took a nice 1.5 mile moderate paced walk. REMEMBER FOLKS, ANY PROGRESS IS STILL PROGRESS. SOME ACCOMPLISHMENTS ARE NSV'S. I REMAIN PROUD OF US ALL.
6/12 191.0 whoo hoo. Finally lost some weight which likely includes water weight, but Hey! It needed to go too! Also, I finally went to the bathroom (if you know what I mean). Sometimes hard to go on this particular diet due to lack of whole grains. I Didn’t feel too well today. Less than 6000 steps on my fitbit. No walk in the neighborhood. But I stuck to my diet very well. That’s the report on my physical. My mental and emotional state was very good because I feel I scored a scale victory. I’m just a smidgen from the 180’s. whoo hoo! This challenge is keeping me honest and keeping me real. I hope it is helping all of you too.
6/13 190.8 Out of town today / travel so I know I will be going off course. Will likely see a bump up tomorrow. Also had no ability to take my normal walk so I did a few stretches. Clocked in 6,700 steps, over 2 miles and 7 flights of stairs by 11:30 pm. I have a feeling I am really going to pay for all of this tomorrow. I got in lots and lots of water today though which is a NSV for me.
6/14 196.0 Likely a lot of water weight accompanying the fat. 3393 Calories yesterday while out of town. Over 300 carbs. Lots of sodium. While it was good that I drank lots of water, I think I am water-logged and bloated. I managed a 3 mile walk at moderate pace today and walked a total of over 7 miles including my work. I hope tomorrow will bring a better weight.
6/15 195.8 so easy to gain, so hard to lose. I have walked 7400 steps today but could not take my 3 mile neighborhood walk due to work. Total work related miles walked was over 3 miles. Lots of coffee (black but not much water.) I intermittent fasted for 15 hours before eating. I hope our last day will show some improvement. Diet was healthy today and within my macros.

June:
7: 92.1 kg Scales are showing 700g difference in 5min. Think I need to upgrade the $10 scales for something more reliable. Also joined a gym so I can add weights to my fitness routine
8: 90.9kg new scales probably account for a big part of this drop. These seem more consistent. Big session last night at functional training.
9: 91.2kg went to the gym yesterday have been on track for almost 5 weeks now
10: 90.7kg . Feeling a bit dry this morning. Had wine and kfc yesterday after a funeral but stayed within my calorie goal. Keen to get under 90kg, my first mini goal
11: 90.5kg. I’ve now lost 8kg! Long weekend and still made it to group training. 25min of HIIT and 25 min of boxing I’m sweating buckets!
12: 90.5kg has lunch out yesterday, enjoyed by crumbed prawns and chips and stayed under calories. Will try to get to the gym after work at 10pm. Will be interesting to see if I can sleep after
13: 90.2kg. Made it to the gym after work. Was nice to have it to myself for a bit! Found a nice frozen dinner that has some protein (40g) in it yay
14: 90kg I’m heading in the right direction! Have added calories to try and slow loss.
Seeing a dietitian today
15: 89.8kg saw the dietitian yesterday. She wasn’t worried about the rate I’m losing at so I shall continue. Also now under 90kg yay!
16: 89.5kg. 2kg off this round although the new scales may account for some of it I’m still happy with the result. The weather is miserable here and I’m having a lazy/recovery day but I did take the dog for a walk

Day/Weight/Comment
6/07 - 167.5 - I'm down today, but we celebrated a birthday last night and I went over my weight loss calories. I'm expecting a little bump up tomorrow, but this is a nice way to start.
6/08 - 166.5 - I got on the scale 3 times to be sure. I doubt this sticks, but it's so nice to see that number!
6/09 - 167.5 - I had a feeling this was where it was going to be today. I've also just celebrated my husband's birthday with cake and margarita's, so tomorrow probably won't be much better, but I'll be back on track after tomorrow.
6/10 - 168.5 - Woohoo, those margarita's with the salt rimmed glasses were good! I am so glad I joined this group so I can be held accountable for these little celebrations and then get back on the wagon. The worst thing I could do is to let this weight gain take hold and keep gaining a couple pounds every month as I've done in the past.
6/11 - 168.5 - I'm glad the gaining has stopped. I hope to see a drop in the next couple days.
6/12 - 167.5 - I'm very happy with this.
6/13 - 167.5 - After a 10 day stay, our out of town family left for home this morning, so my eating and steps should stabilize now. I would love to see that 166.5 number again before this challenge is over.
6/14 - 166 - OK, I'm a little skeptical of the quick drop, but I'll take it and hope it sticks.
6/15 - 167.5 - My scale giveth and then my scale taketh away!!! I've stuck to my weight loss calories for the past few days, so I'm not sweating this.
6/16 - 165 - So, maybe my 17 year old scale needs new batteries? I'm down 3 lbs. from the end of the last round which is great! I'll see what my scale does to me tomorrow. See you next round!8 -

Day/Weight/Comment
6/08 - 62.6kg (-0.4kg) - Christened our new BBQ yesterday and got a lot of veggies in. Resisted the last half a krispy kreme hanging about the house. I wish my partner would just hurry up and eat it already!
6/07 - 62.6kg (0.0kg)- Weigh in was a pleasant surprise after a big carby dinner last night. I succumbed to that stupid half a doughnut as well - I just got sick of looking at it haha. Lots of incidental exercise today and a light dinner planned.
6/08 - 61.9kg (-0.7kg) - I'm very excited and very dubious. I'm off sick with a cold so it is likely that the loss is dehydration. Still cool to see that 61.xx number Aiming for my goal weight of under 60kg by my birthday on the 9th July so it's potentially only one month to go! Let's do this!!
6/09 - 62.3kg (+0.4kg)- I'm ok with this. Had a BBQ at a friend's house with lots of delicious food and drinks. Still trending downwards too
6/10 - 62.3kg (0.0kg) - Had a light eating day yesterday and today. Feeling motivated and super excited to see my weight staying under the 63s (despite a little weekend indulgence)
6/11 - 62.6kg (+0.3kg) -
Note to self: Long-term consistency will overcome daily fluctuations. Keep focused on your targets, keep doing what you're doing and you will achieve your goals.
6/12 - 61.9kg (-0.7kg) - Bye bye weekend weight. Went for another run last night which was easier than the run last week Also, I think I might be approaching the upper limit of my maintenance range. For the first time in my life I think I can say that I like my body - a combination of weight loss and self-acceptance/love. Only took 30 years!
6/13 - 61.7kg (-0.2kg) - I am expecting a stressful work situation to come to a head today. I refuse(!) to be derailed by stress eating so am planning a long walk in the woods to relax and reflect before coming home for dinner.
6/14 - 61.7kg (0.0kg) - Well, you can't lose weight every single day can you? I had planned a run today but it's gale-force winds and rain outside. Yoga maybe? Feeling a bit deflated and down in general. At least my weight loss is going well, I guess! Only 0.2kg to my R43 goal.
6/15 - 61.6kg (-0.1kg) - Ooo it's a cliff hanger! 0.1kg to go and a scale flashing low battery! Will I make it to goal tomorrow? Will my scale still be alive? Will I find my stash of scale batteries, lose that last 0.1kg and save the day? Stay tuned folks haha
6/16 - 60.6kg (-1.0kg) -
Holy *kitten*! Well that was a nice surprise. I went for a run last night and had a light dinner so that's probably done it. I think I will see a bump up tomorrow after a girls night tonight and then be chasing this number all next round but wow!
ROUND 43 SUMMARY
SW: 62.6kg
EW: 60.6kg
AW: 61.9kg
Total loss: -2.0kg
AW trend: -1.4kg
Average Daily Calories: 1176
OVERALL GOAL WEIGHT ACHIEVED!!!
My original overall goal weight was 61kg and this is the first time I have made it under that number! I'm over the moon and would not have gotten here without these challenges. Thank you all so much for your support!
My next goal is to get my average weight for the round under my goal and my actual weight under 60kg which I will use as my maintenance threshold, with a maintenance range of 57-59.XX
Thank you all again and can't wait to see you next round!

6/07 - 170.6 - +2.2 from 06/06, restaurant dinner last night & no gym
6/08 - 170.6 - no loss from yesterday but today’s my weekly weigh in and I’m down 1.4 from last week!
6/09 - traveling - couldn’t weigh but I know it’ll be a gain because of all the food last night. Was worth it tho! Will just have a good week to make up for it
6/10 - 172.0 - operation “make up for the weekend” has officially started
6/11 - 172.4 - I have a feeling it’s going to be one of those weeks where I eat within deficit and workout but the scale number goes up. Happens every couple weeks for me
6/12 - 170.8 - finally headed back in the right direction!
6/13 - 169.4 - worked really hard on my deficit and exercise yesterday and glad to see it shown in the scale!
6/14 - 171.6 - no explanation for this. Yesterday was a decent calorie day and a really good exercise one. Who knows!
6/15 - 169.4 - yay! I’m going to an amusement park today which means a lot of walking, a lot of heat, take out style food and probably not enough water. Tomorrow may not be a pretty weigh in!
6/16 - 172.4- I knew today wouldn’t be pretty but I wasn’t expecting THIS much of a jump!

1988 high school graduation 185-190lbs
weight on 1/29/18 = 234.5
Round 43 goal – get to and stay in the upper 180’s
6/7 – 189lbs – what do ya know. 2-pound loss overnight. Now STAY THERE
6/8 – 188lbs – nice, had lots of fish and veggies yesterday. Also had adult beverages.
6/9 – 191lbs – makes no cents but we all know it happens even when we eat right.
6/10 – 191lbs – eat good. Had an entire jar of pickles 3 days in a row now. love them but maybe to much salt.
6/11 190lbs – no pickles and down a pound over the weekend. That’s unheard of !!!!!!!
6/12 – 190lbs – fasting for blood test later today. hope the 40lbs loss gets some of my meds lowered!!!
6/13 – 189lbs – really surprised by this since I had Asian buffet for lunch and pizza out on the boat fishing. It was hot and the bugs may have nibbled off the pound. Oh well it puts me back to starting weight.
6/14 -191lbs – 3 big homemade lake Michigan steelhead tacos.dang good, to good!!! Also had late nigh binge on my homemade 10 hour smoked BBQ ribs.
6/15 – 190lbs – with what I have been cooking this week I am shocked to maintain. This is probably the most consistent I have been in a long time.
6/16 – 189lbs - had a fantastic dinner late last night. Feeling good to end 10 days with such consistency.6 -
Just Give Me 10 Days
Hello! Joining in late. Please don’t flay me if I’m breaking some kind of unspoken rule. I weigh myself everyday but don’t log it because I think I’ll jinx myself. I usually log loss once it stays under for a few days. This might be a great way for me to document my weight every day.
5'2", Female, Serial Starter, Loss 65lbs in 6 months with MFP in 2013 (250lbs to 185lbs). Did it once, can do it again and then some.
Round 43 (My Round 1)
Round Goal: Familiarize self with challenge format. Overall downward trend.

6/07- Entered round late.
6/08- Entered round late.
6/09- Entered round late.
6/10- 240.4 Proud of myself for exhibiting self control yesterday. Had to go to a Chinese buffet for a lunch thing. I made better food choices, did not over-eat, and stayed under my calorie budget for the day.
6/11- 239.8 Woohoo! Still cautiously optimistic as I’m still waiting for that initial massive loss to steady out. 10lbs in 2 weeks seems too good to be true. Does anyone know if that initially loss comes back a little? Did good yesterday food wise.
6/12- 239.2 Pizza was provided at lunch meeting. I walked away and ate my tuna instead. I did go back and ate the toppings off a slice of the chicken and veggies. Still a win, I think. I was just under calories goal today but felt hungry. Need to eat more protein.
6/13- 238! <insert Austin Powers voice>. Yea Baby! Trucking along nicely. Under calories yesterday but did not feel hugger. Onwards and downwards!
6/14- 238. Womp womp. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t disappointed after logging such a nice loss yesterday. Trying to stay positive and remember that at least it maintained but it’s difficult. Going to work hard to not let it get to my head. Was well within my calories and hit my protein goal yesterday. Possible reason for maintaining is that I may be PMSing. Light cramps yesterday and this morning. AF may be finally returning after last baby in January.
6/15- 238.2 Making history here with actually logging a gain while actively trying to lose weight. I was within calories and ate enough protein. Didn’t log water but I think I didn’t drink enough. AF hasn’t arrived. Trying not to over analyze the small gain.
6/16- 237.6 Over the moon logging this loss this AM. Stayed the course yesterday. Continuing to stay within calories. Need to work on consistently meeting protein goal. Need to research this macro business I see crop up on threads. So glad I found this challenge. It’s so motivating and inspiring. See y’all tomorrow at the next round!

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!
6/11 - 156.2 - So close to my mini goal but also very close to the day I wanted to meet it by. Making sure I get my water in, I eat healthy and I'm going to throw in a couple extra workouts the next few days to help me get there. Was pretty relaxed this weekend when it came to exercising and my steps but it's time to up the game.
6/12 - 155.0 - please be true, please be true, please be true! I've been working hard the past few days to see this number and praying it'll stick around. I'll celebrate tomorrow if I see it again because this is my goal weight for this round plus my mini goal I wanted to reach by the 15th. And when I say celebrate, I mean with a happy dance and a new dress to wear on our anniversary.
6/13 - 154.8 - Looks like I'm happy dancing and buying a new dress! At this weight I'm 20 pounds down from the number that made me finally commit to losing weight because I never wanted to see that number again. Joining this group had been the best thing for me and I will continue on with the second half of my weight lose journey, right here, round after round. Thank you all for helping me reach this point!
6/14 - 155.0 - @ 4:00am.. a few hours earlier than I normally weigh but had to leave the house by 5 for our mini vacation!
6/15 - Anniversary - No scales this morning, had pizza for lunch yesterday but then walked around Gatlinburg for a bit, cooked dinner at the cabin. No snacking but had a couple adult beverages. Ate a packed lunch today in between tubing trips, eat dinner out for our anniversary.
6/16 - No Scales - a lot of walking around last night and going hiking today, hoping to return home without much of a gain but I've been just enjoying my weekend away and not worrying about what I eat/drink and will get back on track when I'm back home. Been having late nights (no snacking though!) and early mornings so everything is out of whack these past few days. See you all in round 44!

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.
6/11 - 150 - 1374 - 10-day ave 1456.6 (7-day ave 1421)
I'm officially frustrated. Phooey.
6/12 - 150 - 1325 - 10-day ave 1447.7 (7-day ave 1427)
Okay, whatever. I just reset my calories goal 90 lower than before. I'm not all that happy to be that low, although it's not much below my estimated TDEE, but will see what happens. I should be back to truly regular exercise by next week and will add back some calories then.
6/13 - 149.8 - 1345 - 10-day ave 1400 (7-day ave 1384)
Back again to what seems to be my body's favorite weight. But we're gonna break through it this time! Our days of rain seem to be over for a while, so I should be able to get at least one, maybe two walks in. A year ago I was walking 2-3 hours/day and losing on 1800 calories. I need to get back to that regime! (Have I said before that moving & being "in transition" for 4 months sucks?) Again, thanks for the inspiration - I read your comments and see that I have no excuse for not getting my exercise in!
6/14 - 148.8 - 1427 - 10-day ave 1404 (net 1216) (7-day ave 1370)
Finally!
6/15 - 150.4 - 1409 - 10-day ave 1417 (7-day ave 1393)
Crazy! The only reason I can think of for this increase is that I had Vietnamese lemongrass chicken, a little rice, one crab rangoon, one tiny eggroll, and a cup of clear soup for lunch. Maybe sodium (although it didn't seem that salty)? I walked an hour and did some heavy lifting in the garden, drank lots of water, and my calorie total & macros were fine. Hmmm. We'll see what happens tomorrow, although I'm going to an awards banquet tonight. I have a strategy, though.
6/16 - 150.6 - 1535 - 10-day ave 1406 (7-day ave 1408)
Color me flummoxed. The only explanation I have is that I didn't get as much water as usual yesterday (we sat in a car dealer's office for 3 hours and went to a banquet in the evening where they were very stingy with water, and I didn't want to drink soda or tank up when we got home late). Yes, I was a bit over goal yesterday, but my averages say I should at least hold steady, certainly not gain. I didn't get my walk in yesterday, either, but that wouldn't account for the gain. Then again, I was thinking this morning that at this rate, .2# every 10 days, it would take 3.5 years to lose the 20 pound I want to drop, but I flipped my thinking - that's a LOT better than gaining 20 pounds in the next 3.5 years! So all good, I'll keep on doing what I'm doing for another round and see what happens. See you at #44!

Round 43: My second round
SW: 182.0
RGW: 179.0
UGW: 130
R42 SW 186.6 EW 182 (-4.6)
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.
6/11 – 181.0: Late weigh in. Pleasant surprise since I had a Twizzlers attack last night. And not just the ordinary Twizzlers – the ones stuffed with creamy icing. I still managed to stay within calories, but way over on sugar and carbs. Gonna drink lots and lots of water today to flush it out.
6//12 – 181.0: Same. Below calories yesterday and one-hour walk. Would love to start running soon, but it’s been so long and I’m a bit nervous of injury. I really don’t want anything to stall my exercise, so I’ll take it slow, build strength and try a bit later. Hoping for a drop tomorrow.--
6/13 – 181.8: Hmmm. Trying not to overreact to this yoyo week. Last night, sweet cravings took over and I blew it. Note to self: next time DH calls to say “would you like anything [read junk food] from the grocery store” say NO!!! Twizzlers (again) and Sweet and Heat popcorn. My unevolved lizard brain is in control of my eating. I also jinxed myself and injured my knee on my walk yesterday. Yes, this is how far gone I am … I injured myself WALKING.
6/14 – 181.8: Well now! I want to be indignant because I ate within calories, but here is the lesson I learned today: weight loss is NOT just the result of calories in and calories out. It is the quality of calories in that makes the difference. For almost 95 per cent of the time, I am within calories. However, I regularly eat candy and chips in single servings so that I remain within my calorie limit, but it shows poorly on the scale. So, the scientific equation for me must be clean calories in, calories out. Doesn’t look like I’ll make my round goal weight of 179 or even close to it this time, but hey … I learned an important lesson, right???
6/15 -- 182.4
6/16 – 182.6: Boo!!!

Round 43/Round 1 for me. Late start on 6/10
SW: 152.7
UGW: 125
RGW: 130/135
Weekly goal: lose one pound, exercise 6 days a week a minimum of 30 minutes. Minimum 30 minutes cardio daily.
6/10: 152.7 - humbling moment after not weighing myself for two years
6/11: 151.5 - in an ironic twist of fate I ate lots of "naughty food yesterday but kept portions in check and lost a pound. Got in lots of exercise so that helped I suppose. Getting back in the swing of logging everything. Today's goal is to continue to log and up my protein intake -- trying to balance macros better.
6/12: 151.7 - kinda what I expected. No exercise yesterday, too much salt in my diet yesterday, three days till estimated TOM start day, whole lot of insomnia last night. Suffering from really bad allergies, headache and asthma, smoke in the air from wildfires and I don't feel like doing a darn thing. Today I'm focusing on gallons of water!
6/13: 152.6 - back to where I started, ugh. PMS, bloat, emotional eating last night and no exercise the last two days. Zero motivation. Trying to not beat myself up and instead treat myself gently and get curious about why I feel so stuck and unmotivated and frankly, depressed. Trusting it's just the standard PMS hormones that will hopefully resolve on Friday or Saturday.
6/14: MIA.
6/15: 152.0 - no surprise here. I've had almost no exercise this week, tremendous PMS and water retention that won't abate, zero energy and half-a**ed healthy eating. Today: water, water, water, water and at least a gentle walk on the treadmill. Traveling all next week and already stressing about how to fit in exercise and make good food choices. Eek!

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.
6/11 - 128.4 - Yesterday under maintenance calories, 13K steps, and a workout that mixed short run, elliptical with sprints, and a little strength
6/12 - 126.8 - Yesterday under maintenance calories, 8K steps and at least got a few strength exercises in. Emotional day.
6/13 -126.8 - Yesterday under maintenance calories. It was just a day to get through and learn from. Here's to less self-caused emotional drama today.
Progress report: have accomplished 3/5 cardio workouts and 3/5 mini strength workouts so far. Time to finish strong, I see how anxiety the last couple of days affected my plan.
6/14 - 126.0 - Yesterday under maintenance calories - I have a little insurance built in and try to stay under as I let my fitbit burn sync up, and I consider that total to be "maintenance calories." Great run last night, most since the knees started feeling fragile: 3.75 miles.
6/15 - 126.8 - Yesterday 14 calories over maintenance. Hahaha! Got a nice mini-strength workout at lunch hour with some planks and stuff, 7K steps.
6/16 -127.8 - AAAAAND there it is, to end the round: covered on-call unexpectedly for a couple hours, was unusually hungry, almost 600 calories over, went to bed at 8:00. Good news is, I slept almost 11 hours. So happy weekend, and on to the next round!
R42 * Start = 126.4 * Ave = 127.1 * Min = 126.0 * End = 127.8
I am very happy with this, the average is back towards the lower part of my 125-130 maintenance zone.5 -

Two goals for this round:
1. Reach 10K steps for 7/10 days--2/10
2. Drink 2L of water a day
R43: SW: 218.2
Day/Weight/Comment
6/07--219.2 I have no idea where the increase came from. Working on water today.
6/08--218.2 There it goes. Got my water in yesterday.
6/09--218.0 Going back down slowly. Working on making sure I get my water in this weekend. It's supposed to be a rainy weekend so I am planning on getting out when there is a break in the weather and get my steps in.
6/10--219.2 Chinese food water retention. Based on my past experience the water weight will stick around for 2-3 days. Got my steps in yesterday and already did Kettlebell for today. Going out to a bbq today, so it will be a good challenge for me to stay focussed on my balanced eating.
6/11--219.3 Surprised it wasn't higher. Between the soreness from Kettlebell and the small amount of water I drank yesterday, I was expecting more water weight to show up on the scale. I kept within my calories yesterday even though I went the bbq, so that was a success.
6/12--219.5 Sore from Kettlebell and not a great sleep. This has been a weird round for the scale. I will just keep doing what I need to do and let the scale do what the scale wants to do. Got walk in yesterday.
6/13--219.3 Woke up feeling heavy this morning. I looked back over my food diary and realized that for the past few days I have had little to no vegetables and very little fiber. I am going to work on increasing both over the next few days and see how I feel.
6/14--218.0 Feeling less heavy this morning. It's amazing how quickly your body can respond to a change in eating habits. Will continue to be conscious about the amount of fiber I am eating.
6/15--217.1 Weight loss is such a mental game.
6/16--217.5 What a weird round. While my ending weight is lower than my starting weight, my average weight is higher. However, I was happy to see that I ended the round much lower than I started, so at least the trend is downward and it's a great start for the next round.
R43 AW: 218.53 (+0.89)

I am in! Going to try a little different follow-up by adding my final weights from each round. So even though I have been doing this off and on for a while. Let's see if that doesn't give me some additional motivation (just not going to go back to look up the weights, will go from this point forward). Bring it on Round #43! I will be on the move beginning 6/10, so not sure about scale availability.
December 2016 SW 148#
November 2017 lowest weight 133#
Round 41 final weight 139.2#
Round 42 final weight 138.4
Goal weight 132#
Round 43:
6/07 138.2# I think this may be luck. We will see tomorrow.
6/08 139.2#
6/09 140.2# We went out for an early Father's Day celebration. That's my excuse. Leaving tomorrow for 4 days. Hope things get better. When I went to buy snacks, I passed up all the chocolate that looked enticing, for healthier but delicious other snacks i.e. fruit, nuts...
6/10 140#
6/11 no scale
6/12 no scale
6/13 no scale
6/14 no scale
6/15 139.2# I have a scale for 2 days then none for 7. Off to the gym I go. Not logging at all, which means trouble. But let's see if I can right this ship!
