Feeling quite frustrated with these bumps, I need to just dig deep, stick with it and wait for the scales to start behaving again! - Looking for a downward trend to see out this round now! Really focused on my logging and on clean eating - which is what i love - it gives me ENERGY!
I am SO SO determined!! I 100% NEED to stay mindful about my daily logging and being mindful about what I eat and drink. I need to get into the HEALTHY BMI band.
This is a long term thing, a few bad days or weeks is something I'm getting better at coping with.

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieve permanent change.
REMINDERS One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.- Daily weight fluctuations are normal, and can be as much as 2 lbs a day for no apparent reason.
- A general downward trend is what we are looking for.
- Eating out can cause apparent weight gain because of high sodium levels, but usually goes quickly. Drinking extra water helps with this.
- The human body does not react instantly to what we do to it. Sometimes it can take several days to see results.
- Plateaus are a normal part of the process. The body is consolidating and adapting to your new way of eating/exercising.
- The closer you get to your goal weight, the more difficult it becomes to lose weight, as your body becomes more efficient at using what you feed it.
- When you exercise you build muscle, which takes up less space than fat, so use measurements as well as weight to assess your progress.
- Getting/Staying fit and healthy requires a lifestyle change for most people.
Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!

Round 47
SW: 74kg May 2018
UGW: 62kg Oct/Nov 2018
*Analogue scales*
7/17 72.5kg - yesterday's 74 was just a weekend souvenir, but this round it is time to get serious, been around the 72-74kg mark too long!
7/18 73kg TOM
7/19 not weighed, at home sick. Not done too badly on calories, despite eating pizza for dinner, but managed to go for a walk
7/20 73kg ugh so annoyed, another day at home and no workout. Will go for a walk laterand hopefully fit for the gym or a run tomorrow
7/21 73kg - not happy, but spent all day home on the sofa again, still unwell. While i didn't eat the best stuff, i did count and didn't completely mess up. Will see if I feel up for a walk today, definitely no gym or run yet!
7/22- will be going for sunday roast, so Monday will be yet another new start8 -
3rd round let's go! 😃USW (04.06.2018): 210 lbs
UGW: 144 lbs
Challenge goal weight: 183 lbs
Previous rounds: R39 SW: 196.2 lbs EW: 190.7 lbs (-5.5)
R46 SW: 185.8 lbs EW: 183.4 lbs (-2.4)
7/17 - 182.8 lbs Off to a great start! Been going really slow for 2 months, and this is the first time that it speeds up a bit again. May it last all the way to the finish line hahah. I know it's not a race, but it's important to have some fun along the way 😂
7/18 - 181.6 lbs Woosh! wow, this is great! Haven’t been doing anything differently foodwise. Can’t wait to finally see the 170 number.
7/19 - 180.8 lbs Woooho! I’m just really enjoying this. I have felt so uncertain for 2 months, because weight loss has been going sooo slow.. But I think I’m the type of person that drop a lot of weight, then it pauses, then it drops again.
7/20 - 179.8 lbs. Byebye 180! Going out to enjoy the sun today ☀️ Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.

Round 46 SW: 191.9 EW: 184.3 (-7.6)
Round 47 GW: 182.3
Day/Weight/Comment
7/17 - 184.3 - I worked out really hard yesterday and ate within my calories. My body usually holds on to water after a hard work out so maybe the scale will budge tomorrow.
7/18 - 183.5 - I'm glad to see that scale budge! I went a little off track yesterday in the diet department, so I'm going to try to clean it up today hope for the best.
7/19 - 183.7 - I didn’t hit my water goal yesterday so I was expecting the scale to go up more than that. I’ll make sure I fix that today and tomorrow.
7/20 - No scale - camping
7/21 - 182.8 - I wasn't quite expecting that since I was away for a couple of days, but I ate LCHF for the whole time and I'm a little dehydrated so I guess it makes sense. Happy for the loss either way!

Ultimate Goal: 140
Day/Weight/Comment
7/17 210.6 Was disappointed. Hoping to go down had really watched what I had ate. Had a late supper because I had worked late, maybe…. Tomorrow is a new day. Need to drink water and watch what I eat.
7/18 210.4 at least in the right direction. If only I didn’t LNE last night. Urggg.
7/19 209.3 That was a great start to my day!!!!
7/20 207.8 Yes! Yes! Amazing! What a shock. No LNE last night! This could motivate me to stop eating so late and so obsessively
7/21 206.7 I don’t feel this is deserved (but I will take it) my inactivity yesterday is bound to show up some day.

R47 EW TBD
Day/Weight/Comment
7/17- 228.2 Yay! I thought for sure that I would have a bump today. I guess walking all day countered the two eating out meals today. I’m seeing a trend where my beginning and end rounds are great (barring poor food choices and/or not enough water). Bumps tend to be towards the middle of the round. Learning lots about myself.
7/18- 227.4 Beyond stoked!
7/19- 226.8 Sixth consecutive day logging a loss. Doing very well this round. Not doing anything differently than last round so I don’t know why that is but I will take it.
7/20- 226.4 Fully anticipated a bump given I was snacking a bit here and there yesterday. Also seemed extra thirsty this morning. May see it catch up to me I’m the coming days and I’m okay with that.
7/21- 226.6 There it is. Need to push water. Triple digits outside next few days. Eek.

Change of plans for this round...I've decided to stop worrying about these last 8-13 pounds and focus on eating healthfully most of the time at or just below maintenance, getting a variety of exercise, and generally making the most of the summer. As long as I don't gain, everything is fine. If I lose a little, all the better. I also aim to reboot my daily meditation practice, which I used to do faithfully. It's all part of the picture.
Goals:
Food ~~ 1430 calories max; P 15-25%, C 35-50%, F 25-35%; mostly clean & healthful
Exercise: 60 minutes/day of walking/swimming + yoga/stretch class 3X/week
Weight ~~ maintain or lose slowly.

Day/Moving Ave Weight/Calories Day Before/10-day calorie ave/Exercise/Comment
7/17 - 148.4 - 1495 - 10-day ave 1422 - 30-min walk-run intervals
I've been driving myself crazy about not losing despite cutting back to the point of going hungry, so I've changed my goals a bit. I'll be aiming for my sedentary maintenance calories (1430) plus up to half of what I earn in exercise -- happily, I'm finally back to daily walks/swimming and I'm looking at bikes. Now to resume weight training.... I've also changed my weight goal to 140, which will put me in the "normal" BMI range. I may eventually want to lose another 5-10, but I need to stop obsessing about that.
7/18 - 148.5 - 1401 - 10-day ave 1423 - 90-min slow zoo walk
Good day yesterday, although I had a bit more sodium than usual (and my actual weight went up). Last evening we went to the zoo and walked around the Indonesian Rain Forest exhibit for about 90 minutes, which was wonderful.
7/19 - 148.4 - 1345 - 10-day ave 1403
My iPad seems to have died
so I'm guessing at my moving average, but my actual weight came back down, so this is close. Beautiful weather still, so I'm looking forward to a nice long walk. I'm feeling much less stressed about weight since I decided maintaining is fine!
7/20 - 148.4 - 1343 - 10-day ave 1383
I'm still guessing at my moving average, but my actual weight is holding steady, so this is close. All good. Rainy day today (which is good!) so I'll do my walking indoors at the Y. For the past few days I've been waking up with serious neck and lower back pain - no idea what happened all of a sudden, but I'm no a happy camper. I'm hoping to see a chiropractor today or Monday. Who has time for this nonsense??? Anyway, happy Friday, all.
7/22 - 148.4 - 1370 - 10-day ave 1316
The loss doesn't show since I'm using my moving average, but my actual weight is down & now equals my moving ave. Clothes are fitting looser no matter what the scale says. All good!

Day/weight/comment
7/17 184.2 bad start to my week calories wise, but I did workout, I did day 5 of the 30 day shred, and although I haven't worked out 5 days consistently im at least working out. I need to do better.
7/18 I83.4 I didnt workout yesterday nor this morning I just felt so tired and slept through. Last week I started good like I always do but then the 2nd week comes and I drag, I'm not watching what I eat as much but I'm still trying to work out in the afternoon,at least it helps me stay the same, but that's not why I'm here. IM HERE TO LOOSE THE WEIGHT. I'm going to prep for the rest of the week, because the next 2 weekends I'm going out of town. I have to at least be under 180.
7/19 183.6 a little disappointed but not really, this is to wake me up, that I need to get back on the ball. I'm supposed to be at 182 by now, I just need to keep moving don't give up.
7/20 183.0 that's more like it, now to continue to go down, and on the weekend of all days smh this is going to be hard. First I didnt workout this morning, and I don't know if I'm going to be able to workout tonight. Then tomorrow I work in the morning, so I can't go running, I'm thinking of coming back home and working out. But then we are doing a cookout of steaks that night. Sunday we are going to a friends house who is doing brisket ribs and chicken, omg my weekend is full of food. I have to find a way to workout if I will be able to eat without gaining any of it back.
7/21 182.6 yay so happy but scared please help me keep it off, I'm so close to my mini goal of 179

@back2cute Congratulations on your epiphany! This is where you can see that CICO does not work. 1500 calories of chocolate will not fuel your body as 1500 calories of steak and spinach does. Now if I would just make myself move more!!!
@allison8668 Have you tried resetting you scale by getting on with a heavy weight or having someone considerably heavier weigh?

This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.
7/17 134.0 Happily maintaining below 135. We didn’t eat until almost 5 so yesterday was a one meal day. My first keto-versary 167.5 to 134 in one year by changing to the ketogenic way of eating with no exercise.
7/18 132.5 DH, DD#2 & grandkids x3 were supposed to go 6 Flags in Missouri but DH has done something to his neck. He and I have no car here so no one left and kids will miss 6 Flags.(My diagnosis is pinched nerve which was tentatively confirmed by Urgent Care doc)
7/19 132.0 DD#2 just texted they are on the way. Two kids have to fly back to Las Vegas tonight because their mother won’t allow them to do something extra with our daughter. Family reunion is Saturday in southern Illinois. Now DH and I will be able to attend DHD#1’s graduation party on Saturday.
7/20 133.0 Had dinner late (waiting for DD#1 who is a nurse) at Cici’s. Pizza in a bowl, no crust. An interesting video I saw yesterday —

Day/Weight/Comment
7/17 - 185.4 - Had a great eating day yesterday, keeping it up again today!
7/18 - 183.8 - Look what happens when you eat and exercise properly consistently!
7/19 - 184.4 - Had a healthy eating day yesterday, think this might be sodium intake though. I had a handful of chips with supper last night.
7/20 - 183.8 - I am feeling a bit better this round so far. It's early yet and the weekend hasn't hit, but I am determined to stay on track.
7/21 - 184.8 - Didn't get the exercise in yesterday I was hoping for. Thunderstorms, rain and hail most of the afternoon and evening.

@allison8668 Have you tried resetting you scale by getting on with a heavy weight or having someone considerably heavier weigh?
My scale has a calibrate mode - I actually recalibrate it a few times a week - just in case it was moved
Thanks for reaching out to me for this tip, though ! Very nice of you.

Day/Weight/Comment
7/17 - 148.6 - I wasn't feeling very well at the end of last round and just starting to feel better today so my weight might be off for a few days until I'm eating normally again. Would love this number to stick around right through the next 10 days though.
7/18 - 150.0 - Not worried about the weight increase, I'm still in a downward trend but feeling just an overall "blah" with life in general right now. Need to find a way to get out of this weird funk I'm in.
7/19 - 148.8 - I guess I'm back here again, alright. Maybe it'll stay this time.
7/20 - 148.0 -
7/21 - 148.4 - normal fluctuation... food and water were good yesterday. No worries here.

Day/Weight/Comment
07/17 - Weight = 159.0 (down .6 from yesterday) I'm *hopefully* solidly under 160 after 3 days of weighing under that. 1st milestone achieved! Very happy to get to this number, this is the lowest I've weighed this year, haven't been this weight since December of last year. Yesterday was super hot and humid and my day 29 exercise challenge was power yoga which was really like a hot yoga with the buckets of sweat that fell off me. Today I compete my 30 day challenge with a full body Tabata style workout. Looking forward to the next 10 days, this is the best challenge on mfp!
07/18 - Weight = 158.1 (down .9 from yesterday) I had Subway for lunch yesterday - UGH! I haven't had any type of fast food in over 30 days and wow did I feel awful after it. I limit gluten most days, because I just feel better when I do that, but add in processed gluten like Subway's bread and I was so nauseous I didn't eat anything else really the rest of the day because of how I felt, so super low calories day which isn't great. Exercise wise, the day was AWESOME!!! I completed day 30 of the 30 day challenge I was doing and it was a super intense Total Body Tabata workout: Star Jumps, Reverse Table Top Dips, Skater Twists, Supermans, Reverse Burpees, & Pike Push-Ups. I'm crazy pound of myself for completing this and the changes from it I can really see and more importantly feel, like how much stronger I am now compared to where I started. I've given myself 2 days "off" to have a little break and decide which program I am doing next, still trying to decide between another 30 day or the 90 day. I was fairly certain yesterday about going with the 30 but this morning I feel more like the 90 day program is in the lead.
07/19 - Weight = 157.8 (down .3 from yesterday) I'm tired! Did not get to bed until a little after 3 a.m. last night and up at little before 8 this morning. Sleep is so important, obviously for many reasons - but it really plays a part in hunger. I'm so hungry this morning and I do IF 16:8 so I don't eat until 10:30/11:00 a.m., which normally is no issue at all but today I'm counting down the minutes. Yes, I know I could just go ahead and eat earlier but this is my plan and I stick to it when possible and today it is possible...I'm just cranky from no sleep. I'm on the 2nd of my planned 2 day rests from exercise and I'm ready to get back at it tomorrow, might just start today if I can stay awake
07/20 - Weight = 160.7 (up 2.9 from yesterday) I'm not the slightest bit upset by this number, I know I did not gain 2.9 lbs overnight. I made a conscious, planned decision to have a dinner last night that put me over my calories for the day for the 1st time since I recommitted to my weight loss on 6/18. I didn't "cheat", these weren't "bad" foods, I wasn't "naughty", this is called life. I am focused on living a healthy life and know that part of that is moderation in everything so that this is sustainable for the long haul and sometimes that means being okay with making choices that are not part of my normal routine. As of today, my 2 exercise rest days are over and I am starting my new exercise plan today and I'm pretty excited about it. This one is a 90 day program compared to the 30 day I just finished. These are still all body weight exercises, but compared to the last program which was a new workout each day, in this one there are workouts that get repeated. I think I had such great results on the last one because my muscles got a new challenge each day but I think in this one I will be able to gauge my strength building better as I see how my ability to do certain moves changes over time. Have a great day everyone!
07/21 - Weight = 159.6 (down 1.1 from yesterday) Weight coming back down after the bump up from Thursday's dinner. I completed day 1 of 90 of my exercise challenge which was 3 sets of Body Squats, Push Ups, Stationary Lunges, Flowing Down Dog, Alternating Front Kick, Static V Sit, Fore Arm Plank and then got in a little extra calorie burn jumping at the trampoline park with my daughter and her friend. I was way too busy yesterday and my nutrition suffered from it. I left the house at 4:30 and wasn't back until after 9 so didn't get a real dinner. Was super hungry this morning so not doing IF today, nice solid breakfast in and feel much better and ready to get a great day in!

7/17 / 227.6 at 6:10 / Backing away from my muscle repair and pho water retention. Another good eating day in the books yesterday and I woke up much more limber than yesterday morning!
7/18 / 227.4 at 7:20 / Feeling great. I'm experimenting with going meatless some days and finding it pretty easy. That helps me ensure that I'm getting plenty of fruits and veggies those days, and I try new foods that way, too. And 5 days since last Monday I've had days where I only drank water or (one day) tea. These little challenges are keeping me on my toes and very conscious of what I'm eating, which is a great thing for me, as I can get very much in a rut.
7/19 / 226 at 8:10 / Nice to see this number popping up again like an old friend! Yesterday was a day when I did lots of wall sits. Wall sits are hard, for the record.
7/20 / 224.8 at 6:10 / Pleasant surprises are pleasant!
7/21 / 224.4 / Obviously a much later weigh-in than yesterday, but I'm still pleased. I'm on a streak of great eating and exercise that I love. I know that I'll hit rocky patches, so I'm just taking pleasure in the occasional smooth sailing.
