    6/26 - Tuesday - 196.6 - Things I learned this round: bodies are weird, the scale is data not a judgement (Thanks @puttyputty), I can't make up for a "bad day" by cutting more calories the next - I just end up binging as I did last night (still kept it in the green thanks to MFP), I like starkist tuna creations, you're gonna "mess up" - keep going anyway, healthy habits are not just for food - managing stress has been monumental for me, magnesium lotion is a great deodorant, eat more fish, sunshine makes me happy, moving makes me happy, and yes, food makes me happy sometimes and I'm alright with that.

    So many hugs to you, @AJB1014! All we can do is keep learning together and keep moving together. :)

    Amen to that! Hugs!

    @AJB1014 - I love the starkist tuna creations! But now my husband and son have discovered them too and if I don't eat them right away I lose them.

    I'm not even a big tuna fan! I got one just to try and wish I stocked up. I tried the lemon pepper flavor - what flavor is your favorite?

    Thanks @quiltingjaine , it does take time, doesn't it?

    Here I sit at 20BMI, a squinch under my original goal weight, practicing maintenance, and still seeing some of the behaviors that can make me regain. Watching daily helps, but I'd like habits that would be more sustainable. I am working and practicing to find that balance in about 500 areas of my life, being an always-never good-bad sort of a person.

    Let me reframe: being HISTORICALLY an always-never good-bad sort ...

    6/19 232.6 Had cake yikes! No reason besides BF wanted cake.
    6/20 232.6
    6/21 232.6 Steady anyways. Which is good. I ate more cake and ice cream, plus ate fast food, luckily 1 of my tacos fell to the floor, and went to the trash.
    6/22 233.8 All the salt, ate Chinese, and pizza yesterday. It seems that the food is winning.
    6/23 235.00 Went to Amusement Park for a date. Very nice. Ate Turkey leg and funnel cake.
    6/24 No Measurement. Up super late, went to the fair/rained out did a party instead.
    6/25 233.2 Hope today is better.
    6/26 232.6 Ate way too many cookies.

    No loss, but didn't gain either. Next round should be better.

    @AJB1014 - I enjoy the Sweet and Spicy kind but Lemon Pepper is definitely good too! I have also bought Hot Buffalo Style and also Jalapeno but my husband and son eat those up so I have yet had a chance to try those for myself.

    @marcvb35 Stress creates/releases cortisol which can cause weight gain.

    @mz144 Buy them and hide them so you can eat them. I used to have to do this with the WW snacks I bought at meetings! They were $$$ and my DH would eat 2 or 3 in one sitting!

    This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

    6/17 134.5. Well, that’s what a few carbs too many do to me. 4 tortilla chips and about 3/4” of chimichanga. I scraped the meat and cheese out and left 99% of the flour tortilla.
    6/18 136.0 ???? I need to remind myself that it takes 2-3 days for my food choices to be reflected on the scale.
    6/19 135.5 Recovering from Saturday and Sunday.
    6/20 134.5 at 9AM (was 135.5 at 4:30 AM what am I doing up at this hour???) I got my stuff ready to go to water fitness at 9 and then realized that I have a meeting at 10. I love my Art Quilt group. Third Wednesday is always busy with this meeting and community bingo/dinner.
    6/21 134.5
    6/22 133.5 Late check in as we took friends to the airport this morning and stopped for some groceries on the way home.
    6/23 134.0. Under calories and macros, drank over a gallon of water yesterday.
    6/24 134.5 Over on everything again. I’m human.

    I am a sugar addict too.

    I *choose* not to eat sugar, honey, maple syrup, etc. because I DON’T want to deal with the “white knuckling” and cravings and fear of regaining that comes after even one small serving. I’ve tested this. It’s real for me.

    I am doing everything I can to not have cravings because I feel it will insure my success. Without sugar and refined flour, rice, etc. I clearly eat as fuel and/or medicine, but if I stray, I lose interest in healthier foods and start looking around for sweets & starches.

    Power to those of you who can eat sweets & starches in moderation, but just as an alcoholic can’t have just one drink, I’ve had to admit I can’t have just one scoop of this or one slice of that.

    Wishing you all the luck & strength, @puddlegoober. You can do this!

    Thank you for this @MadisonMolly2017

    STATS: 5’6, F
    R44(1), SW 128.8; EW 122.6
    UGW: 110

    Goal is to lose at least 2 lbs each round. Hopefully at least 3 lbs this round but we shall see.

    I started last round but hurt my back 2 days in and was almost completely stuck to the bed/couch for a week. So I’m starting this again!

    Day/Weight/Comment
    6/17 - 128.8
    6/18 - 126.3
    Ate well and within range, worked out too. Felt super good to start moving again.
    6/19 - 125.4
    I’m waiting for the water weight loss to stabilize. Of course less sugar and carbs helps kick start the start of eating healthier! Ate at my BMR yesterday and wish I could be at a deficit but still a good day. Couldn’t work out yesterday too much but going to workout right now.
    6/20 - 125.4
    Worked out yesterday and ate within my budget.
    6/21 - 124.2
    Still loosing water weight, which is good but need to keep at it when it all starts to stabilize and loss is not as progressive anymore! Will be working out today and cauliflower pizza for dinner tonight! Hopefully I do not ruin the progress with anything too sweet.
    6/22 - 124.2
    I’m happy with that. I hope it holds and doesn’t go up and down and on. Hopefully I can finish this round with this weight and I’d take that as a win!
    6/23 - 123.4
    Yay but let’s see if this sticks! A lot of walking and standing up yesterday. Ate well too.
    6/24 - 123.4
    6/25 - 122.6
    Had to weigh later than usual and weighed at 122.6. Might be lesser, because I weighed couple of hrs. later than my usual time. Will see! As long as I get to finish round 44 at 123.4 I’ll be happy! Have been eating well and working out.
    6/26 - 122.6 YAY! It most likely will increase a bit tomorrow, as I trained hard today and finished dinner at 8:30 PM, which is later than when I usually have it. But had tons of protein so that’s good.

    Good luck for round 45 everyone!

    Round 44: My third round
    OSW: 186.6
    RGW: 179.0
    UGW: 130

    R42 SW 186.6 EW 182 (-4.6)
    R43 SW 181.8 EW 182.6 (+0.8)
    R44 SW 181.5 EW

    Day/Weight/Comment

    6/17 181.6: Right direction, finally. Walked even though my knee is hurting. Probably not a good thing, but I have a hard time deciding whether I’m really in danger of permanent injury or whether I’m just being a wuss. Aching knee made it hard to sleep. I’m icing, massaging, using Voltaren and Tylenol. I really don’t want to quit walking now. Perhaps I’ll try wrapping it before I walk today. Made a gorgeous Father’s Day breakfast for hubby and boys and ate a whopping 522 calories of berry pancakes with maple syrup and bacon. Will behave for the remainder of the day.

    6/18 – 182.2 Even typing those numbers is hard. My scale heard every expletive known to man this morning!! Oh well … onward. PERSISTENCE!!!

    6/19 -- – 180.8 And THAT’S the weirdness of the body and the weight loss process!! Yesterday, I had a horrendous eating day. Within calories, but every manner of junk, both sweet and salty, that you can imagine. I was emotional, sad, depressed and not having any of the healthy lifestyle. At the end of the day, I decided that I would press the reset button for today. And I have. As odd as it is, I will take this drop with both hands and deep gratitude even though it’s probably a false positive.

    6/20 -- 181.0 Uptick to reflect nasty eating two nights ago. Walked for an hour. Knee bothered me the whole way. I must make an appointment to have it checked out. Today my niece arrives from overseas for a 20 day stay. The next three weeks are going to be an eating challenge with baseball games, festivals, fairs and other tourist-type activities. Must keep my head in the game.

    6/21 – 180.6 Yay!!!! Very busy yesterday giving my house a much needed clean. Racked up 14000 steps just cleaning. Over on sugar and carbs which is a pattern for me. Off to my sister’s today for two days to spent time with the overseas visitor.

    6/22 -- Away

    6/23 -- Away

    6/24 – 182: And that’s what you get when you lose control dining out with overseas visitors and every dessert is free game. Cheesecake and apple crumble factored into this. Unfortunately don’t think I’ll make goal again this round!!!

    6/25 – 181.6: Spent almost six hours yesterday steam cleaning furniture and rugs. I have hardwood but rugs on all levels and WHEW… what a job!!!! I’m a bit frustrated because I really want to get back to exercising but my knee is still bothering me. Going to have to focus on daily knee strengthening and if that doesn’t work then I’ll head to the doctor. My eating is still rough too. I’m looking forward to next round to see some downward movement on the scale.

    6/26 – 183.0 OMG!!!! :o:o:o This round is a major fail. This number set me on an all-day pig-out. I ate every bad thing I could lay my hands on. First round was awesome. Last two rounds, I’ve managed to undo the progress. I need a do-over and that’s just what I’m going to do. Goodbye nasty round I’m on to bigger and better things. Bring on 45!!!

    Round 43 SW: n/a
    Round 44 SW: 147.5

    I didn't consciously plan to, but I've been on a bit of a break. I haven't posted here since partway through round 42, after 25 rounds of being pretty consistent. I'm still logging everything and weighing daily but not doing well on calories or exercise and I'm up a few pounds. I was going to start again on this challenge at the start of the next round but figured there's no time like the present.
    ETA: Added start weight as if I were logging in this challenge on 6/17: 147.5. A few weeks ago I got to 144.5 but I've lost ground since then.

    6/23: 148.0
    6/24: 149.0
    Pretty good day. Tomorrow's my day off, it will be harder to stay on track.
    6/25: 146.5
    ?? OK then. Got a workout in today, calories OK but include a sweet treat I didn't plan on.
    6/26: 148.0
    Doing well with exercise the last two days. Stayed in my calorie goal today but had pizza so the sodium could impact tomorrow's weight.

    I didn't consciously plan to, but I've been on a bit of a break. I haven't posted here since partway through round 42, after 25 rounds of being pretty consistent. I'm still logging everything and weighing daily but not doing well on calories or exercise and I'm up a few pounds. I was going to start again on this challenge at the start of the next round but figured there's no time like the present.
    ETA: Added start weight as if I were logging in this challenge on 6/17: 147.5. A few weeks ago I got to 144.5 but I've lost ground since then.

    6/23: 148.0
    6/24: 149.0
    Pretty good day. Tomorrow's my day off, it will be harder to stay on track.
    6/25: 146.5
    ?? OK then. Got a workout in today, calories OK but include a sweet treat I didn't plan on.
    6/26: 148.0
    Doing well with exercise the last two days. Stayed in my calorie goal today but had pizza so the sodium could impact tomorrow's weight.
    6/27: 148.5
