8/08 167 It was a busy day yesterday and I didnt drink enough water. Also indulged in cookies lol. Today is a new day, will do better 😊
8/09 166 Going to start paying better attention to carbs to try and consume less.. my carbs yesterday were just a little under 100 (which is still not great) but the few days before were 150's & 160's
8/10 166 Its so crazy that even when I stick to my calories but eat certain foods I still cant lose.
8/11 165 yayy - kept my carbs low yesterday
8/12 165 😊
8/13 165 a little carby day yesterday but didnt go overboard
8/14 165 at least its not a gain

@vdecosta86 Exactly right!4 -
Thoughts for the day:
The body I have today is a direct result of prior choices.
"One diet fits all" is a fallacy. So is "one workout fits all."
The scale is a tool that helps track weight loss, not fat loss.
There is no finish line; might as well enjoy the journey.9 -

NSV’s: no muscle soreness now at new level of steps!!! The skinny jeans (size 14) I bought a while back are now loose. Will use the washer/dryer on hotter settings this week! All measurements down another 1/2 inch. Bust, underbust, waist, bellybutton, lower abs, hips, right thigh ...
LOL Help! Help! I’m s-h-r-I-n-k-I-n-g!!!!! LOL
Genuinely curious what my final weight will be.
8/7 163.4 Lowest Weight so far in my journey!!! Trend wt: 163.8 Loss/wk: 0.7 BMI: 24.5
A big surprise for sure. Always seems as though when I’m not expecting it, my wt drops & when I desperately want it to, it maintains or bounces up. (Much cooler today which might account for drop.) We’ll see!
Beginning to actually feel thinner...
8/8 163.6 Trend Weight: 163.7!! Loss/wk: 0.6
BMI: 24.5!! Waist more defined- a miracle!!
Starting to think about new style for hair, eyeglasses, makeup, and what wardrobe I should create when I reach goal...before, this stresses me out- now, I’m looking forward to it!
8/9 164 Trend wt: 163.7 Loss/wk: 0.6 BMI: 24.6
Weight lifting and HIIT on Exercise Bike (both new to me seem to have bumped up my water retention. But I feel strong & lean!!
Decided to do HIIT on Ex Bike more often even though my step average drops- I could get heart rate higher & felt the muscles working!! It’s time!
8/10 163.6 Trend wt: 163.6 Loss/wk: 0.6 BMI: 24.5 My mind keeps telling me to eat only if I get hungry, but I know those signals don’t work well in my brain/body, so I’m continuing with my timing & sizes of meals. (I did try waiting yesterday & never got hungry but I got a light headache which I never get and felt tired, so I decided to eat.) My monkey brain is trying to fool me into eating whatever/whenever tempting me with “just eat when you’re hungry.” Not. This. Time. You. Trickster!
8/11 162.6 Trend Weight: 163.2 Loss/wk: 0.7
BMI= 24.4
Lowest Weight & BMI & Trend Wt in decades.
I’m sure it will bounce around, but I’m pleased as I’ve been cutting back calories & upping difficulty of exercise...such a mental game...all the wt seems to be moving towards my middle above belly button. I. Will. Not. Give. Up. This. Time.
Must return my focus to Health, not be fooled by Vanity.
8/12 162.6 Trend Weight: 162.9 Loss/wk: 0.7
BMI:24.4
8/13 162 Trend Wt: 162.5 Loss/wk: 0.8
BMI: 24.3 ***unexpected & it has been surprisingly moving to be at this weight.
Yesterday (throughout the day) and at bedtime the two nights before, I was hungry, which I normally am not. It stressed me out. I kept trying things: walnuts, water, veggies, dinner at lunch time, etc. More lean meat and walking seemed to finally to quiet the hunger again. Ended up with my largest daily calorie deficit in a long time, which is hilarious. Learning to listen to my body even more carefully.
Losing & maintaining weight is a continual problem-solving exercise!!!
My new mantra: “Each pound lost at this point makes 20 times the difference it did before!”
I also realized today that I have a pattern I hadn’t recognized before: I don’t lose as much & if not dieting, would usually gain from May thru July or August. A combination of sad anniversaries of loved ones and hot weather. Good to know going forwards...
8/14161.8 Trend: 162.2 Loss/wk: 0.9
BMI: 24.2!!!! Down 10 since the beginning of this weight loss journey!!, Jyst easily our on my tightest “Thin” clothing from a decade ago!!

I'm back...I was away for the last couple of rounds. My kitchen has been under renovation since the first week of July and I have been without a kitchen and in an upheaval since then. I have basically been eating at maintenance as I lived through the renovation. Considering all the stress and the difficulty in making meals, I am happy to say that I am basically at the same weight now as when I started the renovation. Even though the kitchen won't be completed until tomorrow, YAAAAA!!!, and we still have to get the kitchen organized, I am ready to get back at losing. (I thought I had posted yesterday, but I can't find my post.)
Goals:
1. Beat sister-in-law in weekly step competition
2. Do some form of intentional exercise 7 of 10 days (6/7)
3. Get water in
Day/Weight/Comment
08/06--222.8 Went to the in-laws this weekend, so there is definitely an uptick due to increased sodium from eating out. The positive is that my sister-in-law and I, we both have Garmin watches, are now in a weekly step competition with each other, so that will definitely be a motivation to get more steps in this week. I'm going out for a walk at lunch and then Zumba tonight. Making sure to get my water in today.
08/07--221.3 Got to use the fridge in the kitchen yesterday! Who knew these small things in life could be so exciting. Today is the last day of kitchen renovations and tonight I will be able to use the stove for the first time in 33 days. Went to Zumba last night and so far I am ahead of my sister-in-law in the steps competition. I will go out for a walk at lunch again today, but as tonight I will mainly be spending my time going food shopping and organizing the kitchen I'm not sure how many steps I will be getting in today.
08/08--220.6 Sister-in-law is currently about 100 steps ahead of me, so the competition is tight. Was hoping to organize the kitchen last night, but quickly realized what a daunting task that was and quickly lost motivation. I did organize the utensils, so I'll take that as an accomplishment and will do some more work this evening. Tonight is yoga and with the mini heat wave we are having in the PNW, not sure how much extra walking I will be able to get in tonight; however, I will go out for a walk at lunch when the weather isn't so bad.
08/09--220.0 Yoga was great last night. Sister-in-law is currently 5k steps ahead of me, ARGHHH!!! Today is the last day of the heat wave, so I plan to walk at lunch again and depending on how bad the weather is tonight I plan on going for a long walk tonight. Still working on organizing the kitchen, but considering how hot it will be inside the house this evening not sure how much organizing I will be doing.
08/10--220.4 Did not get a chance to walk during lunch, work got busy. Also, didn't walk in the evening as the heat was still bad. Sister-in-law is now 9K steps ahead of me with 3 days to go, she lives about 2 hours away and it is always a few degrees cooler where she lives. Luckily the heat wave has broken and I will be a walking machine over the next 3 days. I will walk at lunch and then take the dog out for a long walk this evening. Last night I unpacked 4 boxes of kitchen stuff, 1 more box to go, and placed most of the stuff on the kitchen counter while I tried to figure out where to put everything and what to throw out. I packed away about 1/2 of the stuff before I lost motivation, so my counters are still covered with kitchen stuff. I will finish the rest tonight and over the weekend. Last night I was so excited to find my kettle while I was packing things away. So, last night I had my first cup of tea in over 6 weeks. Then my husband unexpectedly decided to make us some lemon blueberry scones, he has been wanting to try out the new stove. Tea and homemade scones made a great evening.
08/11--219.3 Kitchen counters are still a mess, but living with the kitchen for the last couple of days has given me a better idea about where to place stuff. We are getting a very large wood cutting board delivered today, so I need to get the counters cleared off so we have somewhere to put it. I didn't get to go on a walk at lunch yesterday, work got busy again, but I went out on a long walk with the dog later in the evening. Even though it wasn't as hot yesterday as it had been over the last couple of days, it was still a little hot for my very furry dog, so I had to cut my walk a little short because I could tell she was struggling a bit. I am now only 6K steps behind my sister-in-law. Planning on a bike ride and long walk today. My sister-in-law texted me yesterday and thanked me for the step competition because it has gotten her to be more active...that made me extremely happy.
08/12--220.9 Went out for dinner last night, I can feel the salt. Did not go out for a bike ride yesterday, but I did go out for a long walk. However, I am still 10K steps behind my sister-in-law and I don't see how I will make it up. Over this past week of the step competition I've noticed that I've eaten better and I've slept better and it's forced me to get off my butt and exercise, so there have definitely been positives so far. Kitchen is 90% organized, so goal for today is to finish the rest of the organizing. I still need to buy some type of organizer for the under the sink cabinet. I bought a closet organizer for the front entry closet, it's a mess, so today my goal is to install and organize the entry closet too. Kettlebell class rounds out the rest of the day.
08/13--220.4 Sore from Kettlebell yesterday. Step competition ends tonight, I thought it ended last night, so my goal is to get more steps in. Finished organizing the kitchen. I started on organizing the hall closet and started to install the closet organizer, but need to finish the rest tonight and/or tomorrow. I will walk at lunch today and then Zumba tonight.
08/14--220.4 No walk and no Zumba yesterday, I had a major sinus headache from all of the smoke in the air from the wildfires. I spent most of the evening just laying on the couch. Of course because I felt bad I wanted to eat a lot of carbs and I did a lot of snacking after dinner, even though I wasn't hungry, so I am happy that the scale stayed the same today. The bad air is supposed to continue today, so I will probably continue to take it easy for the day and be more aware of any cravings I may get later this evening and make sure that if I eat anything it is because I am really hungry.

R2: Lost 0.7 (SW 195.1 EW 194.4)
R3: Gained 3.7 (SW 194.4 EW 198.1)
R4: Lost 2.8 (SW 198.1 EW 195.3)
R5: Lost 1.1 (SW 195.3 EW 194.2)
REALLY want to get to 190 this round. I'm just tired of hovering right above it. I've been doing so for forever. It's ridiculous. I need to realize that even if I get down to 190, I'm still obese. It shouldn't be this hard. It's not like some big accomplishment or feat. You're going from obese to still obese. Just do it.
SW: 194.2
GW: 190.0
Plan to reach this goal:
-Restricting eating out to only two times maximum in the next 10 days.
-Pre-plan the night before and make sure you have all of your ingredients at home and follow through.
-Workout at least 3 times a week (Goal of running at least 4.5 minutes straight at 6.5 mph)
Day/Weight/Comment
8/06- 194.8- My weight is fluctuating currently, I think it will be fine by the end of the week.
8/07- 195.2- Honestly, had heavy meals yesterday. Celebrated my friend's birthday with burgers and a dessert that we shared. Going to take it easy today. I will say that yesterday I didn't eat that much dessert so that's good. Going to eat lightly today so hopefully that helps with the upwards fluctuation.
8/08- 195.2- hmm. not sure what to say lol. was over my calories a little so that's the culprit, i know.
8/09- No weigh-in
8/10- Forgot to weigh-in in the morning. Mid-day got 196.8. UMMMM. lol freaked me out.
8/11-194.2- Much better lol. I'm happy this is going back down. I think the fluctuations may have been hormonal which is fine. Here's to making the most out of the last 5 days. I ate PRETTY healthy, like snacking on cherries and grapes right now and had a fruit smoothie with honey for breakfast although I did have top ramen noodles at lunch (not healthy at all lol) but still under my calories so hopefully tomorrows weigh-in will reflect that. FINGERS CROSSED.
8/12- 193.1- lol yay. being under your calories works! haha. I'm over today though. Will be under tomorrow. Hopefully this doesn't make me go up again lol
8/13- 194.4- ugh. tbh i knew this was going to happen. ate way too much yesterday. staying under calories today so hopefully that works out.
8/14-193.4- yay. I did better yesterday so I guess that's where this is from, however, I was still over my calorie goal so hopefully I can stay under today. Will definitely be eating less probably. I do have a final tomorrow, however, so I may have to get a coffee to stay awake and study! Hopefully it won't do too much damage.

Round 47 - SW 158 EW 152.5 (-5.5 lbs)
Round 48 - SW 152.5 EW 150 (-2.5 lbs)
5 '-1"
Round 49 goals: I'm going to stick with 10,000 steps per day and also focus on a small goal related to water consumption. Add 1 glass before I leave the house in the morning and 1 glass before I go to bed.
8/06 - 151. I was inactive and unfocused in my eating yesterday. There was lots of snacking. The first snack was delicious and satisfying. After that, it was just silly. On the bright side, I slept well last night and feel refreshed and on a good path today.
8/07 - 150. 11,000 steps. Elliptical and weights. Ate at the low end of my calorie range yesterday and couldn't seem to get enough to eat this morning. Something to think about in the future.
8/08 - 151. 11,000 steps. Elliptical and kettlebell squats and swings. I watched a bunch of videos to remind me of proper form for the swing. I'm not sure I got it just right, but swinging that weight around was pretty fun. My unstated goal of seeing the last of the 150s this round is looking more challenging than I would have thought, but nothing to do but keep at it!
8/09 - 151. 11,000 steps. Elliptical and weight lifting. Ate three real meals yesterday instead of snacking my way through at least one of them and met my protein goal for the first time in a while. I felt good about that and was expecting to see the scale move down a little this morning. Maybe tomorrow?
8/10 - 150. 21,000 steps. Looking forward to a 20+ mile bike ride to a winery for a concert tonight. Hoping, hoping, hoping to see something lower than 150 on the scale this weekend.
8/11 - 150. Again. Got in that bike ride yesterday. I had carrots and hummus as a snack at the concert and was very surprised to find myself enjoying eating the carrots more than the pita chips. That’s definitely never happened before.
8/12 - 149. Yay!!! I'm finally lighter than I was at the end of the last round. I was very happy to see that this morning!
8/13 - 148. More yay! I didn't expect to see the scale move again this morning. I exercised less this weekend than earlier in the challenge, ate about the same, and saw better scale results.
8/14 - 147. I'm really pleased, and surprised. I can't actually be losing a pound a day, so I'm expecting some slow going after this. MFP counted a 30 day streak for me this morning.

8/12 Walking steps are up- 12,600. Still having a hard time with eating because of steroids, I tried not to eat in-between meals, dinner I was starving I could feel it even in my arms. I tried more fruits and vegetables.
8/13- Today was a hard day for me 2 I/2 hours sleep last night, no sleep during the day time. Eating healthy today, instead of sleep went walking.
8/14 - Steroids and not much sleep are very hard on me I try have one snack during the afternoon and when it comes to dinner it feels like I have not ate anything I can feel it it even my arms. Going to try smoothies again.

Day/Weight/Comment
•8/6 - 186.2 - Early weigh in. - This morning, I reviewed my weigh ins from the last round. My weight was all over the place. 188.2, 187.8, 187, 186.8, 186.4, 185.6, 185.2. That is not usual for me. I'm expecting that my weigh ins this round will compensate for the weights I bypassed. Those lovely increments. Today's weight for example.
We shall see. 9 more to go. 186 was my weight in early 2015. I was doing very well on the way to my goal of 150lbs, when I decided to try eating grains again. Bad, bad idea.
•8/7 - 186.6 - Early weigh in. Maybe I am through with the 186's now? 186.8, 186.4, 186.2 This weight completes the increments set.
•8/8 - 185.6 - Okay. Let's count'em down. I was here and .2 last round so, maybe I skip .8 altogether? If so, one to go and one to revisit.
• 8/9 - 185 -
•8/10 - 185.4- Lol, there it is. If no point 8 this week, then this set is complete. A VERY carby day yesterday, courtesy of some pre-made store bought meatballs. 52g carbs, 41g net carbs
•8/11 - 185.4
•8/12 - 185 - again, lol
•8/13 - 185.8 - fluid retention yes, but also there is the point 8! Completed 185 set.
•8/14 - Did not weigh this morning and holding on to a lot of fluid. Omigosh, losing track of the days. I didn't realize that tomorrow is the last day of round 49. That 10 days went so fast! So fast that I haven't had a decent amount of sleep 4 nights in a row. Three were just my "normal"
but yesterday, smh. MY DAY, by Tiabirdie56 I was already to the point of overtired and I decided to strip everything off my bed, wash it and disinfect (? not sure if that's truly possible) the mattress. Errands to run, dinner to make, now its 9pm. Really tired, I DO NOT want to finish what I started in my bedroom. Told my son that I was considering sleeping on the sofa now. It's 10:30pm. I go to the bedroom at 11pm, with rags, mops, bucket. Yeah, it was that kind of cleaning I wanted to do. Dust the walls, wipe down the door frame, wipe down the window shades, windows, dust and polish furniture, wipe down the mattress and foundation, dust and wash the floors, make the bed. Four and a half hours later, shower, lie down, can't sleep. 5:30 am I finally got to sleep, but it's fitful, because Grands are coming and today, I wish they weren't. So now it's 9am, (no coffee yet btw, and I NEED COFFEE! sev-er-al cups) the children are here and as usual, for 2 and a half hours they are continually wanting food. SMH. Are anyone else's Grandchildren like this? Still no coffee, getting irritable because I am tired. I make breakfast for myself. What I wanted, a 3 egg omelet with spinach and a small portion of beef smoked sausage. What I ate: 1 scrambled egg, 2ozs beef sausage, 1 small strawberry, 1.5 ozs cheddar (which I did not want but I had to eat something) What they ate: DGD- 3 eggs, 2/3 of a cheese stick ( she decided she didn't like it - ?) apple juice she brought from home, 1 oz beef sausage, 2/3 pint of strawberries. DGS- One of my eggs (yes, I cooked 2 for myself, lol) 1/3 pint of strawberries, cheese stick, juice brought from home. Then they discovered goldfish crackers in my cabinet, so they ate some of those and DGS also ate broccoli. How long were they at my house? 5.5 hrs. When they left, who came? The other 2 Grands and my niece for 2.5 hrs! So Niece and Grand niece proceed to eat my spicy peanuts and I hand over my bag of pistachios, so they continue their munch-a-thon 
Grand nephew only wants something to drink. Now I am talking with Neice and preparing 3lbs of green beans to blanch and freeze. I ask her if she wants some for their dinner tonight. I bag 2lbs, but think about how much the children like green beans, so all go home with her. Now it's time to make dinner. I'm so exhausted now that I don't even feel it. Not quite the end of MY DAY yet. Hope I sleep tonight.

8/06 86.6kg (-1.0kg) Wham, I just started with a realy good wooshhhhh. Roundgoal met in 24 hours . And all I did yesterday was being lazy, some laundry and sunbathing. Feels great though!!
8/07 86.9kg (+0.3kg) To be expected. Better number, was way too big of a woosh.
8/08 86.9kg (-0.0kg) It's very hot, walked 10000 steps and went to bed early.
8/09 87.2kg (+0.3kg) Had a very special day. My aunt celebrated here 80th birthday with a very sugary high tea and a very high heavy sodium chinese dinner.... But it was worth the 300gram extra on the scale this morning!!
8/10 87.2kg (-0.0kg) TOM and having a hard time after a day full of party food to stay in my kcalgoal. I'm hungry for sugar and fat

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.
8/10 81.1 kg - ugh. just, ugh. I guess this is to be expected bc I worked out hard yesterday and though I stayed within calories, working out gave me a lot more calories to play with so I ate a relatively large amount of food. But still, meh. Hope the combination of bloating and food baby goes away soon, but with the weekend coming up I am not so sure...
8/11 81.1 kg - felt lousy all day and didn't make the best choices - not the worst either, but def not the best - so I am just glad it's not worse.
8/12 did not weigh as was away
8/13 81.3 kg. Well. This happens when you go away on the weekend for a nice hotel stay and then proceed to enjoy going out to eat and having the breakfast buffet and stuff. I know this is mostly bloating, and of my own doing. Let's see how much damage I can reverse before end of this round. Hitting goal seems unlikely though.
8/14 80.6 kg. Whoosh!! Still don't think I hit goal, but wow - amazing how much water weight your body can hold onto from one very carby meal, and how quickly it can drop it again!
8/15 80.3 kg (177 lbs) Super happy with this, I will take it! Stayed within calories and worked out and drank a lot of water... And i will (i WILL) get under 80 kg the next round.9 -
*Non-digital scales*
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 and had 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
8/10 visitor - 71kg. I feel like this is my weight now. I'll wait til after the weekend before changing my apps.
Also, my niece's flight last night got cancelled due to bad weather. This was the second change of plans during an emotionally exhausting week. I don't like changes of plans very much. So I allowed myself to eat treats and go over my calories yesterday. Then I also decided to sleep instead of run this morning. This is all ok, I feel I need it, I just have to be mindful not to get cocky about the 71 and throw it all away...
8/11 visitor
8/12 visitor
8/13 73kg - to be expected after the weekend and day 2 of TOM. I didn't weigh or count over the weekend, had too much fun (and sweets) with my niece. Ready to get back to my new healthy eating ways.
8/14 73kg, I did so well during the day, had a burger dinner with colleagues, all allocated and planned for, even skipped the fries. But then there was a 241 cocktail offer, I didn't drink all last week so I felt I deserved it. Oh that was a mistake because at home I ended up snacking soooo much, felt lime my day 1 TOM Happened yesterday instead of a few days ago. Ah well, new round new luck aka get my act together. However I'll be back home for half of the next two rounds, which will also be challenging.
8/15 72kg, 0.5 more than at start of round. I am an idiot and can only blame myself. I'm so tempted to give up, with being away from Sat. But every day I do count and stay within will help me get to my goal eventually. I now know I have to review my UGW timing for next round and just go with a smaller drop as a first goal.
And maybe i'll finally get a digital scale after my holiday.11 -
