    8/15 189.5* (* denotes weigh in on scale that is at the new house not my usual apartment scale)

    8/16 - Thursday - 187.0* - As much as I'd like to base my goal of this number not yesterdays - I know that's not realistic. I didn't eat enough yesterday as it was too hot to cook and I didnt have an appetite either. I also weighed on not my scale again and tomorrow will be on my scale, so I'm taking all these numbers as data, but not very specific data. Like I said last round - more focus on my mental health these days. No lunch packed as I'm VERY in limbo - DH wants moes for lunch and I started panicking that it wasnt healthy and would cost too much. But guess what - it is what it is! So instead, I'm rejoicing that I get to eat a quesadilla and realizing that I already planned a little financial cushion this week because we need to eat and cooking thru this is not realistic. I definitely have a caloric cushion too because I've been undereating surprisingly these past few days.

    8/17 - Friday - 189.0 - Moving day. Hot. Humid. Thunderstorms. Got it done. We are bruised and battered but I am in awe of what I accomplished. Saying thanks to my body for being the beast I forgot it could be. I did one season of heavy lifting way back when and would love to get back into it! I definitely didnt expect moving to make me love my body more but it did.

    8/18 - Saturday - 186.5* - ate fried chicken after completing what felt like a heroic feat of a move. Unpacking some boxes today but taking it easy. Havent been sore like this in a long time but I don't mind one bit. a reminder of what I accomplished. Went grocery shopping for some things for the week.

    8/19 - Sunday - 189.5* - Made a nice big breakfast, but not much of an appetite. Enjoyed the morning at the new house with DH and coffee on the porch though. Went out to run errands and get some yard working supplies. Took the pup to the local arts and crafts fair. Came home and had a light lunch of leftovers and walked. Took back my bird watching shed from the rhododendron that was trying to eat it and did some weeding. Shook out the rugs and brought them all in. DH took me out for ice cream at our new local farm! Pup got one too and we watched the cows in the field. Home for dinner (we ate backwards :D ) and DH cooked chicken quesadillas while I made some more progress on Laundry and closets. Can't believe what we accomplished in one weekend. Plenty of house projects to keep us busy like that for the next 30 years!

    8/20 - Monday - 189.0* - Need to bring my scale to the house! Getting back to a routine, or trying to atleast! Lots of projects going on! Happy to be maintaining!

    8/21 - Tuesday - 188.0* - Yesterday was another really busy evening with house chores. Things NEEDED to get done last night so dinner was late. We still found some time to relax and reconnect and make sure we are still on the same page and happy. We had a chicken Cesar salad for dinner around 9:30 and it hit the spot. I realized that I've been a bit panicked the past few days. We just changed our lives 100% and I'm scared and nervous and stumbling my way thru things right now. But this is how I grow. I know that stepping out of my comfort zone means heeby jeebies - but it also means huge opportunities for a brighter future. Here's to being brave and being better every day!

    8/22 - Wednesday - 186.5* - Forgot my scale AGAIN yesterday. Womp womp. I would consider just sticking with the scale I've been using but the 1/2 lb increments kind of drive me nuts. So, I'll use it for now and readjust when I switch back to my old one. I told DH how scared I was about everything last night. It felt good to just let it all out. He kindly reminded me that a healthy fear is good - it means you're striving for something better. He also shared his fears and we were able to build each other back up. So I'm feeling a bit rejuvenated today. DH cooked sausage pepper and onion sandwiches for dinner. TOM finally arrived this morning. Thinking of starting to track basal temps and such to see if I can track ovulation and get a little more familiar with my body before we start ttc. Got a consignment couch for the interim until we decide what we want for furniture - and got the cable set up and finally hung out in the living room last night. Have to finish moving the last things from the apartment and clean it this weekend so lots more physical activity coming up! I've been sleeping really well at the new place, whether I'm exhausted or it's very calming I'm not sure yet but I'll take it!

    8/23 - Friday! - 185.5* - Planned to have BIL over last night, after he rescheduled from Tuesday. Moved schedule around only to be blown off at the 11th hour, again. Grrrr. Learning to LET IT GO. A blessing in disguise perhaps, anyway? Was going to order out, but went to the grocery store after weeding away my frustrations. Still eating a lot of "convenience" foods - some frozen lunch entrees, lots of sandwiches, pasta. But still maintaining that downward trend! Happy to be learning what my balance is. Things will shake out and shape up as we get more settled. Ever reminding myself to trust the process. Final weekend to clean up apartment and lots of outdoor chores at the house - lots of water today to prepare!!!

    8/24 - Saturday - 184.0 - house and yard work like crazy! Swam at the town beach and got pulled pork pizza and onion rings yum

    8/25 - sunday - 185.5 - so much pizza. Worth it. More moving today. Here's my horoscope reminding me to trust the process. " It takes time, seasons sometimes, for certain aspects of our lives to take root. Don’t cut off healthy growth just because it’s not as far reaching as you think it should be by now. Find ways to encourage all that you love to keep taking shape." -chain nichols

    I am in again. 4th time Thank you Grandma Jackie! This challenge really motivates me.

    Female, 54, 5’7”

    Original weight 227.9
    R47 EW 206.8 Loss 3.4
    R48 EW 205.0 Loss 1.8
    R49 EW 204.3 Loss 0.7

    My goals are 10,000 steps a day, try to control late night eating, strength and/or flexibility exercising 7/10 days!

    Day/Weight/Comment
    Starting weight for round 204.3
    8/16 203.7 Got my steps in. Was mindful of what I ate, only took a small piece of the birthday treat someone brought in. No late night bingeing. Was going to exercise, had all good intentions at work but when I got home didn’t happen. 
    8/17 201.9 Yes!!!! Large weight loss hopefully yesterday's number was high and this number is correct. Very hopeful that the first number may be replaced by a 1. It has been years.
    8/18 201.7 I need to really watch what I eat this week end because my weight gains always show up on Monday and Tuesday. Yesterday I kind of fell apart with eating right. Today's goals WATER. I don't drink much water on the weekends.
    8/19 202.4
    8/20 203.4 Not as bad as I was expecting. I need to get my act together on weekends.
    8/21 204.1 Monday and Tuesday weight up definitely seeing a pattern. Now time to go down.
    8/22 203.6 Getting the snacking urges back real bad again.
    8/23 203.7 Went to the doctor for the my yearly physical and felt good to be down 25 pounds. Next year will be even better. 
    8/24 203.3
    8/25 203.6 lower than when I began. That’s good news

    R50 EW 203.6 Loss .07

    MFP Ten Day Challenge #50 (my first one)
    Female, Age 62
    SW: 204 (Feb. 2018)
    CW: 185
    GW: 150
    Day/Weight/Comment

    8/16(Thurs) - 185. Better than I thought it would be. Got 9,000 steps and lifted hand weights. Stayed within calories.
    8/17(Fri) – 184.4; 9,000 steps
    8/18(Sat) – 183.5; 8,000 steps
    8/19(Sun) – 185. 9,000 steps. Recalibrated the scale. Good exercise, walked in the morning.
    8/20(Mon) – 183. 8,300 steps. Pouring rain today. John coming from NYC for the week.
    8/21(Tues) – 183; 4,000 steps. Not enough exercise today. Family dinner at our house, had lentil sloppy Joes, cantaloupe, and sweet potato fries. Cake at the quilt club meeting.
    8/22(Wed) – 183.6; 4,000 steps. Worked full day then picked girls up from daycare and made them dinner and put them to bed. Not many steps but I was tired after chasing a 10 month old and a 3 year old after work. Had a great time with them! I need to watch my snacking at night!
    8/23(Thurs) – 183.6; 11,300 steps. My exercise is really lacking this week with John home and so many activities after work. I went for a walk in the rain and didn’t even melt!
    8/24(Fri) – 183.8 Not sure weighing myself every day is a good thing for me, I get a little obsessive.
    8/25(Sat) – 183.8. Good that I haven’t gained with John here.
    1.2 lbs. lost
    Not much lost for 10 days, but I am satisfied. We had quite a few meals out this week, my son from NYC was here. Ready for the next round!

    I missed the end of this round, and missed thanking @abowersgirl , @countrycreek , and @deepwoodslady for commenting on the puppy pictures. Thanks for sharing my puppy's enjoyment; he was having a good time during round 50!
