9/05 - Wednesday - 183.0 - Set my goal weight a litte lower than my usual - but I've been hovering here for a while so I feel a whoosh coming my way! Well, this morning was actually a whoosh - this puts me at 29.6 lbs lost! And so close to my short term goal #2! And so close to overweight BMI from obese BMI! I still didnt find my scale last night!!!! It's been a kind of rough morning so far. Exhaustion both mentally and physically is catching up to me. Need to do some self care over the next few days.
9/06 - Thursday - 183.5 - Busy night last night. Worked on the in-law, cleaned drained and refilled hot tub, cooked dinner and slept over there because it was too hot. But I stayed up too late watching movies cause it was like being on vacation. Ooops. Another busy day today - work is stressing me out. Trying to stay mindful and centered despite it all.
9/07 - Friday - 182.5 - WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?! Short term goal #2 HELLO!!! On my way to overwight BMI all the way from obese class 2!!! And it's Friday. I'm going to revel in today's positives and push the negative to the side!!!
9/08 - Saturday - 182.5 - I was in such a mood last night. Let myself get too hungry and it was all downhill fro there. Rallied for friends dinner and the night turned out okay. Moved last things today, final wlak thru at apartment tomorrow. I need a nap. But planning to go to the fair tonight and i might not log...nah I'll log it and move on! Excited to do something fun after all this hard work!

I'm hoping the weightloss I've been having is real. It seems like too much too fast, but I don't want to lose momentum. I'm not starving myself or anything. Just staying in my calorie limits. I'm not even focusing on exercise yet. My whole plan has been trying to get sleep, drink more water and eat clean with a protein and fiber focus. I even checked my scale just to be sure it wasn't faulty.
I've decided to reward myself for every ten pounds I lose and I'm now 0.5 away from my first 10. I don't want my reward be related to food in any way, so I'm thinking I might get a tattoo.

Round five for me. Sorry, I'm starting late but I'm back to work and things got a bit hectic as I was getting back into the routine of getting both myself and daughter ready in the mornings. However, I have been tracking my weight.
My goal for this round to get under 195lbs. Good luck everyone :-)
9/05 198lbs - up 0.5 from the last round ... maybe it's my body getting used to the exercise
9/06 197lbs - on my way down
9/07 194lbs - wow 3lbs down !!!... don't think it will stay ..but I'll take it, for now ...went swimming today. it always makes me see life in a better way.
9/08 194 - surprised I'm still at this number (but secretly very pleased)

@fit_chickx that salad looks delicious ... I will def. try that 😄😄 yumm
@jerier that's really great advice. I know the post wasn't for me but I def. Took a lot from it.
@cdavisdeva You got this!!! Just try to eat before hand to control your hunger and cut up some fruit and veggies to pick at, this way it will curb your appetite and even if u end up caving for those finger foods, you won't over indulge 😀😀
@deepwoodslady GREAT JOB!!!! You are doing fantastic2 -

9/05 -- 160.8 slowly coming on down. I don't usually eat after 7 but last night was a super late dinner at 11. I got in 150 min of exercise, which means I was up till 1 30 😥😥😥 and drank 1.5 liters of water. Hope everyone else has a good hump day!!
9/06-- 160.2 worked out for 90 min yesterday, drank 1.5 liters and stayed under my calories. I usually stop eating after 7 (8 the latest) but last night I had a craving for munchies, so ended up having a couple of mini crispys and a mini chocolate bar at 8:30. Buuuuuuut the NSV is I only ate one mini chocolate and stuck to 24 crispys (they are the rice cake kind) where before I would have over indulged on both until there was nothing left.
9/07--160.2 worked out for an hour, drank 1.5 liters and ate under my calories. I think I have officially hit my plateau. This week I haven't been the best with getting breakfast in. I have been so motivated and consumed with exercising that I have missed breakfast and lunch all week and only have been eating dinner. I have tried planning out my meals for the week to stop this but that didn't work out too good. I already know OMAD doesn't work for me and on top of it, after dinner I tend to get the munchies if I don't eat all day. Like the night before I ate some chips and chocolate and last night I ate four turtles after dinner. Of course it was all still in moderation and I didn't go over but I don't like when I get mindless cravings. I have no problem with having a treat here and there but having junk be my go to when I'm still hungry isn't ideal. So this morning after weighing in, I ate. I will see how this goes.
9/08-- 159.6 WHAT WHAT WHAT??? yesterday I caved and ended up eating a crazy amount of chocolate, although I still stayed under my calories, it obviously wasn't the healthiest day. I did exercise, even if it wasn't as much as usual and I walked. I drank 1 liter of water. It is so weird that I usually work out like crazy, eat well and get the majority of my water in but ended up plateauing for a little over a week, then the day I didn't do as well and I ended up pushing under the mark. I am a little sceptical, I will wait to see if this doesn't change by tomorrow before I get too excited. But I am hoping this is it.... me in the 50s 😃😃😃 I am going to watch closely though, third day eating chocolate.... don't want this to turn into a thing

@abowersgirl I should've done that, I did eat a very small salad beforehand but wasnt really craving it today. I did indulge in the finger foods, but didnt over indulge! Used the calories as my dinner (very early one). Stayed under so that's a plus.
Also YAY on the 150's! I'm so happy for you! I know it felt good to see that number.

9/05 - 154 - The scale actually flashed at 154.5, then it went to 153.5 three times, so I went with an average. I realized after I posted yesterday that I started this challenge 120 days ago. I've lost 20 pounds since starting this challenge and received a lot of good advice from reading comments. I don't know if I would have stuck with this weight loss without all the support and empathy from this group. Thank you to all!
9/06 - 152.5 - Well, there's a little whoosh!
9/07 - 152.5 - I'm really surprised I didn't have a little bounce back. I'll take it.
9/08 - 153.5 - I had a late and salty dinner last night and then I woke up very early. We also ended up eating at a burger place tonight due to some crazy errands. I've stayed within weight loss calories, but I'm expecting another bump up tomorrow.

@cdavisdeva I was so scared. Plateaus can last anywhere from a week to a couple of months, I am so happy I managed to finally push past without getting discouraged in the process.
Good job! I do the same thing when I know I have few options. Today was my MILs bday and we took her out to a restaurant so i saved an enormous amount of calories for the occasion. The salads on the menu were as expensive as the burgers, so I couldn't justify the cost of getting one. I ended up having a veggie burger with a side of veggies (rather then fries, although they were so alluring especially since everyone else at the table was eating them) the only problem being I didn't realize they had a way higher sodium count then a regular burger. Oh well. Live and learn.1 -
@blackviking14, I think you're doing very well. Just continue on the path you're following now. Its working to your benefit.1
-
I'm joining late and this is my first time to do the "Just give me 10 days" but I am hoping that this will give me the boost of motivation. I am one and a half years into my weight loss journey and am currently stuck. I have been working out daily and have been aware of the foods I eat but am not seeing any movement on the scale. New accountability and ideas and I am hoping for some new success!!
Plan - 10,000 steps daily/Minimum of 30 minute workout daily/Log every bite and limit diet soda

I feel onederland coming, so I am pushing for consistency, I want to see a more consistent downward trend this round. I am hoping for good things this month!
This is a long term thing, a few bad days or weeks is something I'm getting better at coping with.

I've decided to reward myself for every ten pounds I lose and I'm now 0.5 away from my first 10. I don't want my reward be related to food in any way, so I'm thinking I might get a tattoo.
I think mini-rewards are great 10 lbs in the beginning is good, but as time goes on progress slows a little and I am now at rewards every 5 lbs
Anyway, I would make the tatoo more of a large reward, as you skin and size is going to change significantly from your current weight to when you are at 200lbs. So I would hold off on the tat and choose something else. My rewards are a bit girly - fresh flowers, foot massage, pedicure, afternoon tea with bff, haha ... so maybe they don't provide any inspiration ... but I normally plan about 4 rewards ahead. (Including clothes shopping, which I needed after the first 20 lbs).
Good luck ... and believe it ... it's REAL!! Took make a while to accept that simply logging on MFP was enough. It really isn't diet, it really IS lifestyle! YEEEEAAAHHH

This is my first challenge! Excited to see all the posts/ideas.
Goals:
1) drink at least 10 cups of water
2) take a daily multivitamin
3) 10,000 steps
4) slowly increase activity
Mindset: I want to lose 50 pounds total, but since every big goal needs smaller goals, I'm going to try to think of it as losing 5 pounds 10 times. So I'm going to think in 5 lb increments and my goal will be to get to my next benchmark goal each time.
SW: 190.3
Day/Weight/Comment
9/05 - 190.3 - well I just thought how yummy the baby carrots were that I just ate! On my way to adjusting my food thinking!
9/06 - 189.6 - did some reps with my hand weights yesterday and 45 min on elliptical. Slowly but surely...oh and also, I just ate homemade soup for dinner and I'm still hungry!!!
9/07 - 189.3 - about 30 min on the elliptical today - negatives - cheated with a few boneless wings...sigh; positives - good water intake, vitamins
9/08 - 188.9 - had lots of activity today - over 15,000 steps woohoo! Brought snacks with me, but treated myself for dinner to my favorite sorta cheat meal - sloppy joes with 90% lean ground beef, healthy life whole wheat buns, corn on the cob and baked beans; fair water intake - could have done better...

Good job! I do the same thing when I know I have few options. Today was my MILs bday and we took her out to a restaurant so i saved an enormous amount of calories for the occasion. The salads on the menu were as expensive as the burgers, so I couldn't justify the cost of getting one. I ended up having a veggie burger with a side of veggies (rather then fries, although they were so alluring especially since everyone else at the table was eating them) the only problem being I didn't realize they had a way higher sodium count then a regular burger. Oh well. Live and learn.
@abowersgirl You are going to keep having awesome results! I know for me, it just seems slow because I am weighing myself every day, but when I look at the big picture and see how far I actually have came it helps! I'm sure you do that too. We are so hard on ourselves.
Good job for staying away from the fries though, imagine how much more sodium you would have added to your day (if you are like me and like salt lol).2 -
R52: SW=194.7, GW= 192.5
R51: -1.3 lbs
SW=196 lbs (BMI < 34.7)
MGW=169 lbs (BMI < 30) by January 2019
UGW=140 lbs (BMI < 25) by June 2019
Daily goals: stay under calories, 80 oz water, no eating past 6:30
Exercise goals: gym twice/ week
9/5 Wednesday, 194.7. -0.4 from yesterday and -1.3 from R51. I will take it after poor choices made over a 4-day weekend to the beach. Yesterday was great. I stayed under my calorie budget and did not eat anything after 6:30. Today's goal is to stay under budget and 30 minutes of cardio at the gym.
9/6 Thursday, 193.5 (-1.2). I think it is mostly water since I drank a lot yesterday and I was really shedding it all day and night. I felt terrible last night and did not work out but I did stay way under calories. Plan is to go tonight while daughter is in ballet. Even if I just walk on the treadmill for 30 minutes, it will be something.
9/7 Friday, 192.5 (-1) Now if I can just keep this up through the weekend. Wins from yesterday-- 30 minutes on the elliptical and passed up brownies that looking diet busting worthy! I am volunteering for 5 hours tomorrow morning/ afternoon to help cast my daughter's school play. So, my plan is to eat a healthy breakfast and to pack some healthy snacks since I know there will be junk food around.
9/8 Saturday, 192.4 (-0.1) I’ll take it. Went out for ice cream with the kids last night and indulged in a small cup. Today was a long day but I stuck to my plan and burned a bunch of calories shampooing carpet in 4 rooms. Hope to hold this weight through the weekend.

R51 SW: 175.3 EW: 172.6 (-2.7)
9/05 - 172.6 Same as yesterday Heading off to the gym now. Hope everyone has a great day
9/06 173.0 (+0.4) This "gain" is because I had to eat before weighing in (which I normally don't do). My boyfriend had to wake me up and literally feed me because my blood sugar was so low. Have to be super careful with my insulin dosages since I've lost so much weight. This is the first time this has happened
9/07 172.6 (-0.4) I’m happy as long as there isn’t a huge gain this round. I’ve been blessed with two awesome rounds in a row, so I’ll be happy with whatever Had an amazing workout today, so I’m hoping that it shows on the scale tomorrow 👊🏻
9/08 172.8 (+0.2) Ok, so it didn't show I ate well under my calories and I never eat back exercise calories. This will turn soon, just have to be a bit patient and stop second guessing myself
9/09 172.6 (-0.2) Hahah, weight loss is weird. Yesterday was awesome. Saw some friends I hadn't seen in a long while and we had a great time. Stayed under my calorie goal, but could have done better on the carb intake.

9/07 - 60.5kg, relatively low carb if you exclude the cake , circuit training, stop eating @ 16:00
9/08 - 60.6 kg, tried a little bit cake again based on the idea that if no effect on yesterday weight, no effect today. wrong conclusion...
