@jerier I'm in Ukiah - both fires in Mendocino Complex (now biggest in CA history) started within 10 miles of me and then raced east. My friends and coworkers from Lake County are on their 11th day of mandatory evacuation ... but so far (prayers!) no lives lost in this fire.

@brightresolve Yikes! Praying for a speedy containment.

I’m in again for another round!
Round 48 - Lost 7 pounds (178.8)
Round 49 - Goal - 2.8 (176.0) or more would be great

Weight on 8/5 -178.8


8/6 - 179.0 almost forgot to post today!

8/7 - 179.0 so hard to get motivated today. Should have been at the gym this morning by 5 or at least out for a run by 6. Neither will happen as I’m just too tired. Need to just shut up and suck it up! I will take a gym bag to work and go for a run after work. It’s called my punishment, running in the heat for not doing what I’m supposed to do when I’m supposed to do it!!!

8/8 - 179.0 - Lordy I’m exhausted. Ran, lifted and Walmart all before 6 a.m., on my feet at work for 10 hours, home for chores, cook dinner and finally a moment to post. I thought at 54 and an empty nester life wasn’t supposed to be so crazy!!!

Day/Weight/Comment
8/06 71.5kg - unfortunately can't do my run and exercises today as I am incredibly sore from yesterday's boxing class
8/07 72 - it's ok, had a really *kitten* day at work, did a little comfor eating, then got stuck on a hot train for 20mins, and had late dinner. Went over my cals, not by as much as I thought I would. And made a better choice for late night snacking and avoided the glass of wine I really wanted.
New day today!
8/08 71!!! - WHOOSH! Oh this is awesome. I had a much better day yesterday. Stayed within calories even though I had loads of snacks, ran in the morning and boxing in the eve. Rest day today and drinks tonight, but i'm motivated to keep it sensible (even tho the group of friends i'm meeting is everything but)
8/09 71 - it is still here! I went over my calories last night with a bit of an emotional chocolate binge. But when i say binge, I had 4 pieces instead of a whole bar.
Tonight my 11yo niece will arrive, I'm sure there will be some ice cream, cookies and pizza over the weekend, but I aim to stay reasonable without looking like i'm dieting

Not good. Not good at all. Actually not 100% fair. Yes I was eating a little more than normal, but looking at Friday I didn't go stupidly over, and Saturday (unlogged) I only ate two meals, did lots of walking, and dancing. But there was a lot of drinking. A LOT of drinking. Ugh. Anyway, friday and saturday where okay, it was hangover day that really killed it:
8/06: 71.6 - Yesterday was not good. Riding back on a motorbike for 4 hours, on a hangover, was not good. We went and had a breakfast buffet around half 10. A terrible decision, not just for the waistline, but also the wallet. I used to be able to eat enough at these to almost make it worth while, but neither me, nor my boyfriend were able to eat enough for that. But we did eat enough (and slow enough) to mean that lunch was not necessary. Then the dreaded dominoes for dinner, of which I ate way too much. After the weekend I've had, and the salt in that dinner, I am not at all surprised with the jump in weight. Pretty sure most of it will be water weight, and will settle away soon. I will be tracking the next couple of days closely to see how it comes off.
8/07: 69.8 - Erm, well that went well. Going to really mess up all my stats, but further proof that one day a diet does not ruin. A really odd day. Normally I would've been at judo in the evening, but I wasn't feeling well (I'm still not feeling well today) so didn't go. In addition my tummy was all over the place, so tried to stick to something blander foodwise, and plenty of water. I'm expecting it was all that greasy and salty food over the weekend playing havoc so hopefully it'll now have passed. I'm certainly feeling better in that respect. Went over calories, but not massively. Reasonably happy with the day. Hopefully will be able to get down to the 69.3 again in the next couple of days.
8/08: 69.5 - Still recovering from the weekend. I'm expecting the scales to stop moving quite so dramatically now. Yesterday was generally good. Dinner was significantly smaller than I was expecting and so stayed well within calories besides snacking on nutella and peanut butter. Looking forward, I'm hoping to get to 69 dead before the end of this round. Then I've decided I'm going to take a diet break. I really feel that I need one. My last few weeks have been all over the place, and I think that some time not eating at a deficit will really help me refocus. I'll probably go for a week and see how that goes.

8/09: 69.5 - I always forget how filling, for how few calories, a stir fry is. Kept my calories low, and meant I was able to enjoy a mini milk and a carrot cake slice, and still be under my lower target. After a tough couple of days it's nice to have a super low day that I felt completely comfortable 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!

Hi everyone - newish to this challenge (not to MFP!) and a bit late to this round... Goal for this round is to FINALLY get under 80 kg bc it is just way too high of a number for me and I am fed up with it. And I love the accountability this challenge gives me!

Day/Weight/Comment
8/06 80.8 kg (178.1 lbs)- down from the weekend, happy with this as it means I managed to stay within calories but still managed to enjoy myself.
8/07 80.6 kg (177.7 lbs) - another drop... Have to keep on keeping on! Planning to workout this afternoon but it is going to be SUPER hot so I don't know how motivated I will be. Have to remember to hydrate in any case!
8/08 80.5 kg (177.5ish lbs) - slow and steady! Gym was good yesterday, upper body workout, not too much cardio involved which was fine because it was SO humid and warm. Finally rained last night, I feel like I can breathe again.
8/09 80.5 kg -same as yesterday. Felt really bad yesterday morning, don't know why, probably heat and lack of sleep. Did stay within calories. Feeling a bit better today, so that's good.

Round 48: SW 257.4 EW 253.8 (-3.6)

Day/Weight/Comment
8/06 - 253.8...very surprised to still see this number, really thought I would have a gain. I had a horrible day yesterday, I don't think I drank any water and I ate my weight in sweets. I don't know why I did it, I was feeling so good about my drop and even had someone compliment me on my loss. I swear I'm trying to sabotage myself 🙁
8/07 - 253.8... had a good day yesterday! Stayed under calories, drank lots of water and did strength training and cardio at the gym
8/08 - 255.4...went over calories and ate a big meal late
8/09 - 255.4...yesterday I stayed under calories and did a walk. Wasn't able to get to the gym because my little gym had a bad night (I go after he's asleep). I didn't get enough water either, I had planned to drink more at the gym lol.

Thank you for the warm welcome .

"My goal for this period is to go back to my pre vacation weight that was 60-61 kg"

8/08- 63.2 kg, that makes it + 2 kg compared with one month ago and +5 kg compared with my target weight
8/09 - 63 kg. Pretty good day, kept it low carb on the diet and stop eating around 18:30. Done 1h of yoga that is kind of extreme sport for me. Same targets for today just changing yoga for a circuit class.

Day/Weight/Comment

08/06 - 158 - I'll be darned, I was starting to wonder if my scale couldn't get below 158.5.
08/07 - 159 - I'm starting to wonder if 1200 calories a day are my maintenance calories??? Maybe this is why I got stuck at this weight 11 years ago? I have continued to weigh/measure my food and I'm always close to goal on my carbs, protein, etc. Until my vertigo is resolved, I don't feel comfortable increasing my activities, so I guess I'll just have to see what happens over the next couple weeks.
08/08 - 158 - OK, I'll take it...again.
08/09 - 157.5 - Woohoo, I'm glad to see this go down a little before we head out of town tomorrow. This gives me a little more wiggle room for the inevitable uptick on Monday.
