Day/Weight/Comment
9/15 – 180.0 Hello everyone! As I get nearer to my weight loss goals I am transitioning this round to 20-50 net carbs per day with the intent of staying in a fat burning mode. I am keeping my calorie goal the same which is 1277. My original goals when I started my journey in January 2018 was to lose 8-10 pounds per month . My newest goals are to lose 1.5 pounds per week, 6 pounds per month. I am carrying a bit of water weight from a travel day earlier this week. However, at my general weight I am 30 pounds from my complete goal weight with approx 60 pounds lost. My ticker will reflect this when I shed the water back off. Yesterday I stayed within calorie goal but went quite a bit over on my carb goal. As my business slows down I find I am walking a lot less and will have to build in more planned exercise and intentional walking. In the end, my hope is to reach 145 pounds by Valentine’s Day. I am building in an 8 pound cushion as I expect to gain a bit of water weight when transitioning to higher carbs and calories. My final goal would be to weigh about 153. I then intend to keep my carbs and calories in a maintenance level to help keep my T2D in control or in remission. I would love to hear everyone’s exact plan for their weight loss and fitness goals as we go along. I know a lot of great ideas may come of these readings. Good luck everyone on this round!

9/19 - 178.6
9/20 - 177.0 A great big thanks to everyone for sharing their overall plans to reach their goals. Whether it’s 10 day goals, mini goals or overall goals and plans, I learn so much. Hugs to you all.
9/21 - 176.4
9/22 - 176.0 I feel like the comeback kid every round. @AR10at50 is right. This is hard. But this IS the time that I will get to my destination. I’m feeling pretty good about my diet & exercise plan in this very moment. Last night I hand sewed more of my favorite blouses to make them smaller (I haven’t used a sewing machine since Jr. High). Inside out the stitches look pretty horrid, but you can’t tell on the outside so I am very pleased. All these clothes are temporary anyway. I’m on my way DOWN. I have long travel days every round. Sometimes I am not perfect in the moment, the meal or even for the whole day. But I've proven to myself that it cannot derail me. My NSV is that I willingly and HAPPILY get back on track.
9/23 - [bcolor=green]176.6[/color=green] Out to dinner last night with friends. Had a lasagna dinner (oh no!) but I boxed half immediately and took it home for my son so the damage wasn’t too bad for either one of us. A small dish of icecream at the restaurant completed the meal. I probably should have skipped that. @jerier is so right about restaurant meals blowing you up. I was immediately bloated and still feel that way a bit today. After dinner I walked briskly for 1.5 miles burning off more calories than the icecream. The scale only fluctuated slightly this morning and my glucose did not test badly either. Parsley & lemon water for me today. Thanks Tish!

9/20: 252 - I was surprised to see that number today. I ate pizza but worked out quite a bit to fit it in my calories. Unfortunately, I smashed my foot into the couch and either sprained or broke my little toe so I have to take it easy for a while.
9/21: 251.4 - My foot doesn't hurt as much today. Had spaghetti last night and it was delicious!
9/22: 251.4 - Can't wait till I can start working out again. I'm going to try the stationary bike for a little bit today and see how it goes.
9/23: 249.6 - What!!! Was not expecting that. Got on the stationary bike yesterday and felt okay. I even had some Dr. Pepper which I haven't had in a long time. I feel really good about my loss this round so far.

Round 53 (My 7th round)
9/15 157.5 Today is my 60th day on MFP. I am so happy that I took this step to a healthier me, and haven't given up even though I am still fairly new. I now weigh less than my husband. (He is only a couple of inches taller than me). I know weight is only a number, and us women have the "goodies" men don't lol but it was a constant bother to me. I'm not even sure why because he's not a big guy at all. He's always loved me the way I am, but I never dared tell him my weight before. Anyways, hope its a wonderful round for you all ❤
9/16 157.5 I need to get my sweet tooth back under control. Made cookies and told myself I was just gonna have 1. That did not happen so I just used cookies as my dinner lol.
9/17 157 the scale was bouncing between 155 and 157, I'll go with 157 for now because I didn't make the best food choices yesterday. Happy to see a loss though! Goal for today is to resist mall sweets and foods, my sis in law and I are having a girls day. I know we will be going out for lunch too.
9/18 157 happy to see this number again. Still not making the best food choices but staying in calorie range. Today already started off bad, my Grandma bought me Mcdonalds.
9/19 156.5 I didn't let my breakfast ruin my whole day yesterday. Had a smoothie for dinner. 🙂 Thinking I may change my ultimate goal to 130-135 instead of 140. Maybe. Going to see how the next couple rounds go.
9/20 157 I expected to see a little gain as my carbs and sugar were high yesterday.
9/21 156.5 Yesterday was a tough day again because I craved sugar all day. Usually fruit helps but didn't yesterday. Seems like this is happening a lot this round. It's going to get better though I'm not going to allow myself to fall back into old habits. Just trying to keep myself busy. I have added diet drinks in every so often, where as I was only drinking coffee and water. I almost wonder if this is what's causing it.
9/22 156 😊 yesterday was a good day other than a little back pain. Pushed through it though and got my exercise in, and felt better afterwards. Thinking if I stay good with my macros the next couple of days I can finish with my round goal of 155 😊.
9/23 Didn't weigh in this morning. Slept a little later than I wanted, so was rushed getting ready for church and forgot.

9/22- 187.2- So my little brother went on the scale and his weight was showing to be 79 pounds but he's a little more than 100 so I think I need to buy a new scale but my weight seems probable since I did really well yesterday. Not sure so I will purchase a new scale but for now it might be okay. But I am a LITTLE concerned since it was doing weird things yesterday as well. Also, I'm going out to eat today with family so I'm not sure that scale will be good to me tomorrow but I'm determined to get right back to eating right after. This will be hard for me because I tend to feel bad about myself after eating badly like I let myself down but I need to get out of that habit because some days won't be perfect. That's life. No need to feel bad about it if it's not an everyday occurrence.
@ssssanaaaa Definitely purchase an accurate scale. I like to read as many reviews as possible before buying. I've even brought a heavy item that I can test the accuracy with, lol. (a 20 lb dumbbell)
Yes, the number on your scale may or may not be accurate, the important thing is that you are showing a downward trend which is awesome. :bigsmile:

9/19 -188.7- really happy about this. Let's take it down more! Next mini goal weight is 185.0 (but GW for this challenge is 186.5).
9/20- 188.3- woohoo! I didn't do as well yesterday as I wanted to but today went really well so hopefully the scale delivers
9/21-187.9- The scale kept showing me different numbers. I usually weigh myself twice to account for random error. But the two numbers were off (187.9 then 187.1) and so I decided to do it again somewhere else and got no straight answer (188.1, 187.5). Just went with the first number I originally got. Seemed most likely to happen. At least they were all lower than yesterday's number
9/22- 187.2- So my little brother went on the scale and his weight was showing to be 79 pounds but he's a little more than 100 so I think I need to buy a new scale but my weight seems probable since I did really well yesterday. Not sure so I will purchase a new scale but for now it might be okay. But I am a LITTLE concerned since it was doing weird things yesterday as well.

I’m back in and a little late to this round! Been a rough few months and have gained back what I had lost. Had surgery and have been diagnosed with thyroid cancer. Knowing how the thyroid effects metabolism, I realize I’m in for an uphill battle. I love this challenge and appreciate the support and accountability that it offers!

I agree this is so smart. I have always wondered how good my scale was...mind u last week I went to a friends house and there was no change in weight so I'm pretty sure my scale is fine..but this is a Great idea for those days I'm questioning accuracy. Don't know why I have never thought of that before.2 -

9/15--157.8 staying steady at this weight. This is definitely a lot later than I usually post but I did weigh myself this morning just wasn't able to post till now (even if in a short amount of time I will have to re weigh in) good day yesterday. 90 min of work out, ate fairly well and got 1.6 liters of water in. Here is to a great start!!!
9/16-- 157 once again late post but once again I weighed in this morning. Was super excited to see this but I know it's only for the day. Yesterday I worked out like crazy but unfortunately didn't eat or sleep much, (about 4 hours) only having a little over a liter of water. Today I ate well but it was my last day house/dog sitting and when my friends came home they took us out for pizza. I haven't had pizza for a long time and apparently I was super hungry because I ate 3 slices 😣😣😣 I have never ate so much in my life, so this will definitely show on the scale in the morning. I haven't sabotaged myself in a while....but here we are again.
9/17-- 158.6 and here it is... that dreaded pizza. It's ok though, I am being patient, i know I can take it off and keep it off. It's a new day!!!
9/18 158.6 although I was a little upset by this I have managed to think up a couple of reasons why I am still here. 1. I haven't been getting enough sleep the past couple of days. 2. I need to up my hydration. 3. Breakfast, always seem to do better the days I eat early. 4. Sodium was a little high yesterday and 5. That dreaded pizza still has a hold. I exercised yesterday (a 10 mile bike ride and workout with my mom) even though it was supposed to be my rest day i am secretly happy about the bike ride. I have a stationary bike but I forgot how amazing it is to ride the real thing, might make it a thing before winter hits. Drank 1 liter of water and stayed under my calories..but like I said it was a higher sodium day then usual. Back at it again today!!
9/19 158.4 slow and steady is my pace lol Yesterday was dinner at the in laws and omg the amount of food I ate. Holy cow!! Was worse then pizza night. I was so hungry, don't remember the last time I ate so much. On the bright side, although I ate a crazy amount of calories, fat, sodium etc. When I got home I decided the negative number in my daily was not acceptable so I went for a bike ride and did some exercising. I managed to squeak a +3 calorie wise, and drop a significant amount grams from my carbs and fat. I will take it!!! This week I have already had 2 cheat meals, which is way above my usual but my NSV is I still exercised both times. I hope to continue this effort of exercising on cheat meal days or sticking to my goals on exercise rest days😁😁 As for the rest of the week, I have no more plans that might sabotage me so I all ready to re-re- work lol
9/20 157.6 finally a whoooosh. To bad this is almost a duplicate of last round. Hoping to get extra exercise in and seeing some sort of a bigger loss for the round *fingers crossed* I ate well and exercised good yesterday along with 1.2 liters of water. Hope everyone has a great day.
9/21 156.6 Whhooooooosh!!!! Ahhh I am so excited. I did work out hard yesterday so I am slightly not surprised but I am still very happy. I have a digital scale and when I originally jumped on it said 156.0 but I shook my head and thought "this can't be right" after jumping on another three times 156.6 showed up three times so I took that number rather then the lower one, so I wouldn't jinx it lol only three more days to hit my target weight 🤞🤞🤞 I find myself getting so emotional everytime I loose a pound in the 50s, why? I have no clue. I feel like I really have undid all the damage that I inflicted on myself 6 months before deciding to join this group and start my MFP journey again. I use to always get discouraged but now I honestly feel like I can do it, that I am only going to go down from here...no interruptions or towel throwing lol. Have I said thank you to you all recently? Well thanks to all of you, especially @GrandmaJackie if it wasn't for this group...I don't think anything would have changed for me 😭😭 thank you!!
9/22 156.6 still here. Last night i was crunched for time when it came to dinner so I had a can of soup, which means high sodium day. I feel bloated today so I am not surprised with staying the same but I am surprised I didn't gain. I didn't feel like working out but I pushed myself to at least do an half hour which turned into an hour on top of the exercise I do regularly with my mom. My water was 1.2. I can't believe we only have 2 days left!! It's cold today but hopefully it will warm up enough for my mom and I to go on a bike ride, she is slowly becoming more active and I'm impressed that she hasn't been giving me any grief about working out,.... yet. I hope everyone has a great weekend!!! 😁😁
9/23 156.6 yesterday was awful to say the least. It started out great but for some reason as the afternoon came around my hunger spiked and I found myself eating almost non stop. All my calories yesterday was in junk food 😣😣😣 not to mention I had a veg and movie day with my mom....so almost no Exercise (besides a dance routine with my mom) took place. I felt terrible all day because of it. I'm surprised it didn't reflect in my weight though..so weird how my body works sometimes. Work out and eat healthy can sometimes result in a gain while eating crappy SOME HOW results in a stay the same...go figure. Today was way different though, biked 10 miles and almost did a full 5 minute wall sit. Ate well and stayed within calories. I don't know if i can expect a big drop by tomorrow to hit my 155 but who knows. Planning another work out with my mom before bed so maybe that will help. This round, although still resulting in a loss has not been my best food choice wise, hoping this changes for the next 10 day round 🤞🤞

My goal is to stay under my calorie goal, 1200, and to lose 3 pounds in this round. In all, I want to drop 55. I'm 5'6" and 185 lbs, so my goal is about 135. I'm trying to set small, realistic goals so that I can motivate myself with my successes.
In this round, I'm focusing on drinking about a gallon of water a day. I find that I eat more towards the end of the day when I'm tired, so I'm allowing myself NO after dinner snacks.
I'm a newbie here so sorry if I make any "new kid" mistakes.
Thanks for the support and accountability, guys!
9/15 - I went only 35 calories over my goal, which is 1200 calories a day. I drank a gallon of water, too, which is good. Was out doing yard work in the sun all day so hopefully with the sweating and extra water intake, hopefully I'll lose some water weight!
9/16 - Forgot to weight myself today
. But I was 159 calories under my calorie goal, even though we had a potluck at my church and they had my favorite mouth-watering donuts for dessert. I made it, tho!
9/17 - 186. I hate the scale. Doesn’t make sense that I would have gained a pound, so I’m attributing it to water weight fluctuation and trying not to get to discouraged. 1,068 calories. 1 gallon of water.
9/18 - 185. So, I ate nothing but coffee and lunch meat all day cause my stomach felt upset, but late at night I was out and was STARVING, so I went to steak and shake, and, ahem. Ate about 1400 calories in one sitting. So I had a total of about 2200 calories. Oh, well.
9/19 - Ha. Weighed myself this morning and was 184, even though I binged last night. Funny how your body works! Drank 1 gallon of water and ate 1,035 calories. Feeling pretty good.
9/20 - Still 184. I guess at least I’m not gaining. Went 100 calories over my goal and only had 72 oz of water, but all in all I feel it’s been a good day. Starting Keto diet tomorrow so I’m hoping that will speed things up.
9/21 - Ugh. 184 again. Went only 35 calories over and stayed at 15 grams of carbs.
9/22 - 183! Maybe I won’t make it to 182 by the end of the round, but at least I will have lost something. Keto is going well, I had 17 grams of carbs and ate lots of protein and fat. 1,040 calories. 72 oz of water.
9/23 - 182!!! Hope this is real weight loss and I can keep it up. Ate 1,054 calories, but had 20 grams of carbs (didn’t realize how many vegetables have so many carbs in them!) 48 oz of water.

9/16- 200.2. Over calories a little. No exercise but spent most of the day house cleaning. 80 oz of water.
9/17- 200.2. Over calories again, need to work harder on this. 40 min walk. 64 oz of water.
9/18- 197.8. Wow! I was pleasantly surprised when I saw that number this morning. I don't want to get my hopes up yet though just in case... Under calories. 30 min walk, 30 min strength training. 64 oz water.

9/22- 198.6. Under calories. Lots of walking today while out and about. 34 oz of water. I noticed today it's getting a lot easier to stay under my calorie goal and I'm not snacking as much throughout the day like I use too.
9/23- 198.6. Over by 70 calories. 45 minutes walking. 34 oz of water. Lots of anxiety today, just wouldn't go away no matter what I did. I'm trying to prep for the week and I'm feeling overwhelmed. Will try to go to bed on time tonight, maybe that will help.

15/09 Busy work week, kept pretty well to my meal planner.
16/09 Had a couple of nice walks in Dingle, County Kerry yesterday, had a couple of beers and some homemade curry. Trendweight chart is on a downward turn again
17/09 Had a pretty lazy day to end post-race recovery week yesterday, little walk to keep active, scale is being nice at the moment, all my race/shark week water weight is off and then some. Today's goals are to get my meal prep done for the week, making some pan fried chicken and quinoa salad for lunches and salmon fishcakes for a couple of dinners. Looking forward to tonight's leftover Saag Paneer this evening, it's relatively low calorie but very tasty
18/09 Quite heavy on the carbs/calories yesterday but still under maintenance, naturally there is a bit of a scale rise with the volume in food, also didn't get much fibre in on Sunday. Had a lovely row before work today 6km with a bit of sun before the rain started for the day. Goal for today is to get my steps in, as drove to/from work yesterday due to weather and this morning and cut my streak short booo!
19/09 Food was a bit all over the place yesterday, but again under maintenance, got a bit of walking in and got over my step goal so the streak starts again, blustery walk into work this morning, definitely blew the cobwebs away
Goals for today - prelog next couple of days food, focus on protein & fibre and step goal
20/09 Pre-logged for next couple of days as planned, went out for dinner last night so bit of a sodium spike this morning expect it will disappear by the weekend. Protein intake vastly improved this week so far. Aim for today get a bit more hydrated and remember to take my vitamins, definitely feeling the change of season with the grey days and earlier nights. Going to try and get a strength training session in on my lunch hour today
21/09 Was a little out of control with my snacking yesterday, also didn't do my strenth training, doing an extra rowing session to assist my club with the city's Culture Night so at least that will make up for a bit. Having a goal-free day today, just because
24/09 Craving a lot of sugary stuff over the weekend, this usually means I am about to get hit with my winter cold like a freight train, it has done my scale weight no favours, but it's mostly water (Trend weight from start of round is down 0.4lbs though), just going to keep plodding on. Today's goal remember vitamins and get plenty of fluid.8 -

Goal for this round is to actually stick to plan for the entire 10 days!

Day/Weight/Comment
9/15 - no weigh in. I forgot about it this morning until I had already eaten. Plan is to not eat after 5pm, try to get a good sleep tonight and than back to better eating (@ calorie goal) and exercise tomorrow.
9/16 - 255.6...a lot of bad food for a lot of days. Plan for today is to fast (which will be hard because I've woken up hungry), reset and get to the gym tonight.
9/17...?? Completely missed yesterday
9/18 - 256.6...yesterday was ok, not the best food choices but stayed under calories (with eating my exercise back), 80 mins of walking, 100 oz of water. TOM showed up this morning.
9/19 - 254.3...under calories by a few, 30 min walk and 76 oz water.
9/20 - 253.4...under calories, 60 mins of walking and 125 oz of water. I didn't have the greatest day yesterday and I really wanted to eat my emotions but managed to keep to plan instead...happy with that!
9/21 - 253.4...over calories, no exercise and only 50 oz of water. I was going to exercise after my son went to sleep but he wasn't feeling well so I ended up having to go to bed with him at 8pm. Went out for lunch and had nachos. The portion was so large I had to take it home and have it for supper as well..plus some ended up in the garbage. It put me way over on my calories though. Today will be better.
9/22 - 252.4...under calories, 70 mins of walking and 91 oz of water. Started to feel a little under the weather yesterday evening and today I woke up with a full blown cold. I'm going to try to stay within calories but with probably no exercise that will be hard.
9/23 - 251.2...was over calories but under maintenance. No exercise, barely moved out of bed. Still sick this morning so we'll see what happens.
9/24 - 250.0...under calories by 1, no exercise (still sick and resting) and 50oz of water. Down 3.5lbs this round! Don't know if it's a real loss or just from being sick though.
See you all in the next round 9 -

9/15 - 153 - Holding steady, sigh...It may go up tomorrow after the salt I had for dinner tonight.
9/16 - 153 - At least it didn't go up.
9/17 - 153.5 - There's the salt, or the fact that I keep moving my scale due to our bathroom remodel. I double checked my gross calories consumed for the past week and I haven't gone over 1400 calories, in fact I'm usually at 1100 to 1200 a day. I'll just keep riding this out.
9/18 - 152.5 - I'm glad to see this number today. I'm hoping this is the highest number I see for the rest of the week.
9/19 - 152.5 - I picked up some cotton candy grapes from Whole Foods on Sunday and they have been my addiction this week. I know they're higher in sugar and calories than regular grapes, but I've been able to forego my usual little piece of candy after dinner for a half cup of grapes.
9/20 - 152 - I saw this number last round, I hope it sticks around this time.
9/21 - 152 - OK!
9/22 - 152 - I had a turkey taco last night which I'm sure had plenty of sodium, so I'm still good with this weight. We had an injured young deer laying down in our backyard last night. We live in the city limits of Akron, Ohio, but there are so many major metroparks in our area, we have all kinds of wildlife wandering through our yard. It couldn't put any weight on it's hind leg, so we set some water out for it and I tried to contact wildlife rescuers. The little guy/girl was gone when we got up this morning.
9/23 - 153 - To celebrate the Autumn weather, we made brats and kraut for dinner last night. I ate within my loss calories, but I need to drink extra water today.
9/24 - 152.5 - I didn't get all my water in, but at least I'm down for the round.9 -

9/18 - 133 – Long run last night felt great. Detoxing with cucumber, kale, broccoli, apple shake this morning Gym tonight light cardio and lifting.
9/19 – 133 – Arms are a bit sore from weight lifting last night. Tonight, is my last run for the week. I start tapering off exercise and carb loading tomorrow.
9/20 -131 – Carb loading no gym. Weight fluctuation to come.
9/21 – 132 – Carb loading no gym. – Weight fluctuation to come

09/15 177.2 Well that's a nice way to start the round
09/16 177.6 That's fine I expected a bounce, and I was thirsty all day yesterday so that big drop may have been partly dehydration. A workout and 2 walks yesterday - so it was a good day.
09/17 177.6
09/18 179 mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa.
09/19 179.8 another day of not enough sleep and too many carbs. Getting back on track today - I do not want to see the 180's again.
09/20 180.8 hopefully just a delayed reaction from Monday and Tuesday. I ate under my calories and my activity level was over my minimum target. (i.e. 8800/7500 steps - started with a workout today and will go for a walk at lunch, so hope to see a drop tomorrow.
09/21 178.2 That's better!
09/22 178.2 was expecting a bounce so this is great, lots of walking yesterday over 18k steps and began with a workout today. Trying to muster the courage to start the treadmill C25K to take the place of walking as the weather gets colder. I've never in my life been able to run more than a minute.
09/23 177.6 Got the C25K app on my phone - going to give w1d1 a try right now.
09/24 177.8 Lots of struggles this round, but ending with a small loss all the same down 0.6 Did my first C25K yesterday. I have decided to think of it in levels rather than weeks and will move up the levels depending on how I do. Also did a 5 mile walk with my son yesterday. It was a perfect clear and cool fall day. We always count the dogs we see on our walks and we got a new record of 61. See you all in the next round.10 -
This round I begin a dietitian-designed 6-8 week anti-inflammation elimination diet (a bit tighter than what I've been doing the past month) with hopes of getting past these aches & pains without taking drugs. I'm feeling hopeful!
Goals:
Food ~~ Follow anti-inflammation elimination diet - learn new food tricks!
Exercise ~~ rebuild to 60-90 minutes/day of walking/swimming; restart weight training & yoga when joint pain subsides.
Weight ~~ [Edit 9/16] == 2018: maintain at 140 (or slightly lower)

I don't feel particularly deprived so far on this elimination diet, but I do struggle to get enough calories (never thought I'd say that 3 years ago!!!!). I need to work on that - running much too low. But all the veggies really fill me up!
09/18 - 140 - 997
So far, so good. I'm still finding it a challenge to get enough calories on this elimination diet, but I need to make an effort to increase slowly. Too low is too low. Otherwise, it's fine, and nice to be at goal. This has been a 3.75-year journey, so keep the faith!!!
09/19 - 139.2 - 1118
Since I'm losing on this elimination diet (yes to lots of veggies, moderate fruits, fish, gluten-free oatmeal, nuts, seeds...!), I've decided to just go with it. My real ultimate goal has long been ~130, but I stagnated in the low 150s for so long I decided to just aim for 140. But I'm losing steadily on this scheme, so... No goal, just eating and tracking and definitely not gaining.
09/20 - 139.2 - 1239
I woke up hurting all over and seriously thinking of caving in and taking the @&!!# prednisone. I'm off to look up ways, if any, to minimize side effects. It's a short course, but still.... Other than that, I feel great on this limited diet - can't say I really miss anything in particular (except maybe Dave's Killer Bread - Good Seed!).
09/21 - 138.2 - 1230
Maybe this elimination diet is kicking in re. food sensitivities causing my pain/inflammation - this morning, without any pain meds, I feel much better. So I'm delaying the pred another day or two to see what happens. I went for a lovely walk last evening - not up to my usual 60-90 min yet, but I'm hopeful that I will be up to some nice fall hikes.
09/22 - 138 - 1186
Happy Autumn (or Spring, for those of you in the Southern Hemisphere!). As if to prove her point, Nature cooled the temperature right down this morning. I love cool fall days myself - October is my favorite month - perfect for walking & hiking! Have a lovely weekend, all!
09/23 - 137 - 1199
Why didn't I try an elimination diet sooner? Can't believe I'm losing like this. I'd reset my goal but don't want to jinx it. I did start the prednisone yesterday, and I feel like a new woman this morning. I'm paying very close attention to my sodium and calcium intake and eating lots of potassium and magnesium rich foods to hopefully fend off some common side effects. I'd tickled pink to feel like doing fall things - hikes, walks, gardening....!
09/24 - 137.2 - 1311
This was by best round ever, with a loss of 3.4 pounds. I give all credit to the elimination diet I'm on (started it in full a week ago today). Despite the foods I'm avoiding for the next 5 weeks, I do not feel deprived - I'm eating lots of veggies - LOTS - plus fish, heathy non-grain fats, fruits, moderate nuts (no peanuts), and I'm definitely satisfied. I had been perfectly happy to stop at 140, but since I'm losing, I'm now hoping to hit my original goal range of 130-135. I'm in the midst of another clothing purge - I put on a favorite jacket yesterday and DH said "That coat looks really baggy." Ha! So the donation bag expands.... See you ar R54!

9/15--157.8 staying steady at this weight. This is definitely a lot later than I usually post but I did weigh myself this morning just wasn't able to post till now (even if in a short amount of time I will have to re weigh in) good day yesterday. 90 min of work out, ate fairly well and got 1.6 liters of water in. Here is to a great start!!!
9/16-- 157 once again late post but once again I weighed in this morning. Was super excited to see this but I know it's only for the day. Yesterday I worked out like crazy but unfortunately didn't eat or sleep much, (about 4 hours) only having a little over a liter of water. Today I ate well but it was my last day house/dog sitting and when my friends came home they took us out for pizza. I haven't had pizza for a long time and apparently I was super hungry because I ate 3 slices 😣😣😣 I have never ate so much in my life, so this will definitely show on the scale in the morning. I haven't sabotaged myself in a while....but here we are again.
9/17-- 158.6 and here it is... that dreaded pizza. It's ok though, I am being patient, i know I can take it off and keep it off. It's a new day!!!
9/18 158.6 although I was a little upset by this I have managed to think up a couple of reasons why I am still here. 1. I haven't been getting enough sleep the past couple of days. 2. I need to up my hydration. 3. Breakfast, always seem to do better the days I eat early. 4. Sodium was a little high yesterday and 5. That dreaded pizza still has a hold. I exercised yesterday (a 10 mile bike ride and workout with my mom) even though it was supposed to be my rest day i am secretly happy about the bike ride. I have a stationary bike but I forgot how amazing it is to ride the real thing, might make it a thing before winter hits. Drank 1 liter of water and stayed under my calories..but like I said it was a higher sodium day then usual. Back at it again today!!
9/19 158.4 slow and steady is my pace lol Yesterday was dinner at the in laws and omg the amount of food I ate. Holy cow!! Was worse then pizza night. I was so hungry, don't remember the last time I ate so much. On the bright side, although I ate a crazy amount of calories, fat, sodium etc. When I got home I decided the negative number in my daily was not acceptable so I went for a bike ride and did some exercising. I managed to squeak a +3 calorie wise, and drop a significant amount grams from my carbs and fat. I will take it!!! This week I have already had 2 cheat meals, which is way above my usual but my NSV is I still exercised both times. I hope to continue this effort of exercising on cheat meal days or sticking to my goals on exercise rest days😁😁 As for the rest of the week, I have no more plans that might sabotage me so I all ready to re-re- work lol
9/20 157.6 finally a whoooosh. To bad this is almost a duplicate of last round. Hoping to get extra exercise in and seeing some sort of a bigger loss for the round *fingers crossed* I ate well and exercised good yesterday along with 1.2 liters of water. Hope everyone has a great day.
9/21 156.6 Whhooooooosh!!!! Ahhh I am so excited. I did work out hard yesterday so I am slightly not surprised but I am still very happy. I have a digital scale and when I originally jumped on it said 156.0 but I shook my head and thought "this can't be right" after jumping on another three times 156.6 showed up three times so I took that number rather then the lower one, so I wouldn't jinx it lol only three more days to hit my target weight 🤞🤞🤞 I find myself getting so emotional everytime I loose a pound in the 50s, why? I have no clue. I feel like I really have undid all the damage that I inflicted on myself 6 months before deciding to join this group and start my MFP journey again. I use to always get discouraged but now I honestly feel like I can do it, that I am only going to go down from here...no interruptions or towel throwing lol. Have I said thank you to you all recently? Well thanks to all of you, especially @GrandmaJackie if it wasn't for this group...I don't think anything would have changed for me 😭😭 thank you!!
9/22 156.6 still here. Last night i was crunched for time when it came to dinner so I had a can of soup, which means high sodium day. I feel bloated today so I am not surprised with staying the same but I am surprised I didn't gain. I didn't feel like working out but I pushed myself to at least do an half hour which turned into an hour on top of the exercise I do regularly with my mom. My water was 1.2. I can't believe we only have 2 days left!! It's cold today but hopefully it will warm up enough for my mom and I to go on a bike ride, she is slowly becoming more active and I'm impressed that she hasn't been giving me any grief about working out,.... yet. I hope everyone has a great weekend!!! 😁😁
9/23 156.6 yesterday was awful to say the least. It started out great but for some reason as the afternoon came around my hunger spiked and I found myself eating almost non stop. All my calories yesterday was in junk food 😣😣😣 not to mention I had a veg and movie day with my mom....so almost no Exercise (besides a dance routine with my mom) took place. I felt terrible all day because of it. I'm surprised it didn't reflect in my weight though..so weird how my body works sometimes. Work out and eat healthy can sometimes result in a gain while eating crappy SOME HOW results in a stay the same...go figure. Today was way different though, biked 10 miles and almost did a full 5 minute wall sit. Ate well and stayed within calories. I don't know if i can expect a big drop by tomorrow to hit my 155 but who knows. Planning another work out with my mom before bed so maybe that will help. This round, although still resulting in a loss has not been my best food choice wise, hoping this changes for the next 10 day round 🤞🤞
9/24 156.2 so close. I guess I will have to save that 155 goal for next round. Lol if only one of my days had been better then I wouldn't of had to worry about this lol ahhh well it was still a loss for the round. See you all R549
